  1. What are the BEST and WORST States to practice as an NP?

    Try the N.P. journal. They give out a list in every January issue.
  2. Drug addicted nurses

    To answer your question, I believe your friends may see a part of themselves in you. Or the possibility that they too might abuse drugs. Addiction is a non-judgemental disease. It is more the poor...
  3. OPINION PLEASE-er triage situation-overwhelmed!

    I had to recent ER experiences, in which a traige nurse was used. How would you have acted? A patient presents with wheezing, a known history of asthma and sudden left leg swelling, from her groin...
  4. Drug addicted nurses

    The ones pointing their fingers. I had a co-worker who was reported to the Florida BON for something that I would not consider diverting. She worked part time in a clinic. Part of her...
  5. Drug addicted nurses

    The problem is that too many nurses still distrust, point fingers and gossip maliciously. Just read some of the comments here. I will not work with one. I will not allow one to take care of me,...
  6. Drug addicted nurses

    That might be a valid consideration but what about the uncaught ones, who continue to steal until they are caught or seek help? That is a rather illogical position for some to take....
  7. Worst thing you have seen

    The four year old son, of a friend, who suffered 97% third degree burns after his eight year old brother and a friend pushed him back into a burning shed. They had been in there tossing lite matches...
  8. Drug addicted nurses

    A Million Little Pieces was presented as a non-fiction book. I have not read it and have no desire to, especially after the information that has been revealed about it's author. And after watching...
  9. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    I couldn't agree with you more. Just think, take the statistics of NYC and transfer them around the country, into our public schools, into our public parks, into our retirement communities and...
  10. for those in a 4 sem. program, which semester was hardest??

    For me the last semester was the hardest. I did psych and it was hard for me. Others found 0b and peds difficult, in our second semester. It depends on the student.
  11. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    I realize that you do Amanda. It is my other peers that seemed to think control is just a matter of taking personal responsibility. I have found that things are not as simple as the appear. I...
  12. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    I am truly encouraged and happy by the posts I've read this morning. And by the number of private messages I've received. It is nice to know I am not out here along; not the only one fighting the...
  13. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    Thank you for your imput and sharing of your life and experiences. I would like to point out a few things. Type I's are generally diagnosed as toddlers or youngesters. Unlike Type II, they are not...
  14. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    Amanda, I do appreciate what you have said. Yes, I basically know what I can and can not eat but I no longer have the control over my meals that I had when I lived by myself. Pot roast, I wish....
  15. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    I would applaud you, if you didn't consistently hawk what you have accomplished. Great, your friends supported your effort. I have my family. Their support consist of reminding me of the amount of...
  16. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    Thanks
  17. Doctor on the edge of ethical behaviour.....

    I spoke to a friend who is a former citizen of your country. She told me it should be reported to your facility and government. She also said that what he did is a violation of German law....
  18. Lpn Programs in FL

    I taught at Sarasota Vo-tech PN program. It is an excellent program.
  19. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    Today is the last article, in the NYT and it dealt with children and the rise in Type II. What I was surprised to learn was one of the studies show that Asians, who generally do not develop the type...
  20. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    And what about those of us, that for a variety of reasons, including our own innate weakness, are not able to ever adjust our taste buds? Are we just weak and totally lacking in self-restraint and...
  21. Doctor on the edge of ethical behaviour.....

    What this physician did would be at best assault and battery, here in my state, Florida. It also sounds like your facility made this patient a DNR-Do Not Resuscitate. Giving him anything, by the...
  22. Medicaid. Is it being abused?

    Likewise I am sure you are as well. I tend to view my world in this manner. Is a glass with half water, half full or half empty? For me, it is generally half full. I went thru my half empty stage,...
  23. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    I believe this is the program I have been contacted about. I sure hope so.
  24. Diabetes treatment and why success does not pay

    I am truly sorry for having offended some, especially my last response, last hight. Actually, down here in my neck of the woods, diabetic education is still left to one visit as an inpatient from the...
  25. Medicaid. Is it being abused?

    By the way (and this is not meant as a put down) but you failed to mention I have worked in more then 15 years. And that my experience is hopelessly outdated, unless you count all my ER visits,...
