  1. Faith Hill makes fun of nurses!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

    IMO, they know one

  2. my boyfriend CNA/my issues with him dealing with human bodies

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to lena11's topic in Men in Nursing

    I would like to make the OP aware of a simple fact: Dealing with naked people is a part of Nursing (all of Health Care, for that matter), at all levels. As a CNA, I may have to apply a prescribed...

  3. In memory of my friend

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to mugwump's topic in General Nursing

    I am sorry for your loss. Losing a friend is hard, especially when the friend is so young. I lost a 15 year old friend and a 19 year old friend growing up. Not big on crying, but that'll do it. I...

  4. med carts/control freaks

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to ktwlpn's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'm not a Nurse yet, but we had the same type of thing when I worked as a machine operator. Most operators (myself included) were VERY particular about how their 'stuff' was during their 12 hrs. I...

  5. a Question about HIPPA, the police, and etoh levels on a pt

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to godzilla's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Not yet a Nurse, but I'm thinking I'll need some official paperwork mandating the release of such information. Looking forward to hear what the real Nurses have to

  6. I Quit!!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to Shannon RN 2be's topic in General Nursing

    REMEMBER - sneaking a smoke will not make things better. It will make things WORSE!! I am 100% QUIT as of April 16, 2005 @ 2230hrs. YOU CAN DO

  7. Poll: Male Nurses in the OB? Ok or No Way???

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to KrisRNwannabe's topic in General Nursing

    Isn't this ILLEGAL?? I'm quite sure that it

  8. Your employer's policy re: *snow and ice*?

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to nervousnurse's topic in General Nursing

    To ANYONE heading out in the 'conditions' this winter, some handy things to have with you: Flashlight First aid kit Blanket(s) Road flares Spare tire, working jack, a piece or two of wood (you can put...

  9. Anyone wearing team logo scrubs?

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to Celiabs's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I believe that self expression and fashion sense should be left at the door with your beer cooler and big foam finger. I can see peds Nurses wearing cartoon scrubs and silly steth covers,...

  10. My instructor said I need to have more confidence in myself. I am trying but.....

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to JGLPN2BE's topic in General Students

    It sounds as though your instructor is more confident in your abilities than you are. We all know that safety is #1. If your instructor felt that you were incompetent, she would probably not be...

  11. Letter of Resignation or just Two Weeks Notice

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to grinnurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I definitely agree with the letter idea. ZASHAGALKA nailed it with the complimentary theme. Mentioning the camaraderie you've enjoyed at this facility may also be appropriate, if left simple. Leaving...

  12. Your employer's policy re: *snow and ice*?

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to nervousnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree with a previous poster about having good tires, only would like to add: -Ask about WINTER tires and SUMMER tires. Depending on the vehicle, there may be a difference. -Keep an eye on...

  13. Your employer's policy re: *snow and ice*?

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to nervousnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I almost rear-ended a police car on the freeway a few years ago while on my way to work. (He had all of his emergency lights on at the time). The freeway was covered in so much ice and snow that it...

  14. I Quit!!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to Shannon RN 2be's topic in General Nursing

    Congratulations!! Deciding that you truly WANT to quit is an important step. I also found the information at http://www.whyquit.com very useful. I spent some time reading through that site, and it...

  15. Pa None Smoking!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

    As a matter of fact, YES. You CAN open a restaurant and serve barefoot diners. Some religions/cultures demand it. And discriminating against someone's religion/culture is illegal. The healt dept....

  16. Pa None Smoking!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

    So making people move to another state makes more sense than having people move down the block to an establishment that better suits their needs/wants? Sure. So then why stop there? I wasn't kidding...

  17. Pa None Smoking!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

    I brought that up because I know the same ban is working it's way to my door, and I disagree with it. I brought it up because while some people are perfectly happy dictating to others what they can do...

  18. Pa None Smoking!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

    No, I wasn't referring to you in that part. I was just trying to make a point. That point was that not everybody is cut out for every line of work, and nobody is being forced to work in a smokey...

  19. Pa None Smoking!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I guess I would figure I could smoke there because I own the place, and that would make it MY private property. If I want to open a tavern and cater to people who smoke, why should I not be...

  20. I have a surname. I'd like to use it.

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to 1Tulip's topic in General Nursing

    Nurse 'Smith' Or Mr. 'Smith' for me. Thank

  21. Pa None Smoking!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

    So if I buy a tavern, I cannot smoke in MY building? That's CRAZY!! I understand people not wanting to be around second hand smoke, especially in a restaurant, but the government should not be telling...

  22. Are your fellow classmates really serious about nursing?

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As for Discovery Health..................Also

  23. Are your fellow classmates really serious about nursing?

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank You!! I went in to make sure all of the paperwork was done and everything was ready for my CNA course, as well as getting my HSED today. I felt kinda lost. I dropped out of highschool in my...

  25. Gay Nurses... help!

    Someday-C.R.N.A. replied to quakerkid's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Yeah, I see your point, and you're right - it's not as easy as it sounds. I am able to keep my personal life completely apart from my work life where I am right now, but it may be much harder for...
