My daughter lost everything in a house fire late last night. Thank God no one was home. The dog was the only injury and is touch and go. If anyone is in or around Shawnee, Oklahoma and could help her out till I get home in a week I would greatly a...

Please don't misunderstand the plea I made. She just needed a set of clothes for her and her daughter. I did not intend for this to become a debate on help available. She is overwhelmed at this time and would have been nice to see there is someone...

RN.com has a section on OB. There are also other courses you can take there. Med admin, critical thinking, and assessments are usually good for renewal CEU's

I started working nights as a Paramedic. I have worked several contracts on days and hated it. I sleep like the dead during the day. I have a dark room, a fan running, and a CPAP. I get off at 0730 and stay up until 0900. I get up at 1700 or 1730...

Hi! I am the grandmother raising 3 grandchildren. My daughter suffered from depression after her 3rd one. The state was going to step in and take them. She signed over care, control, and custody to me. It was only supposed to be for a year. It ...

I am requesting that any one who works at a facility that releases early, i.e. 6 hours or less, please contact me. I am researching to create a policy at the facility currently working. We have had a rash of expectant mom's who want to go home in 2...

I, at the tender year of 13, am becoming slightly more than brown but less than crusty. I have had several years of working with COB and have learned something every time. I always correct coworkers when they say "Oh, I'm just a LPN". I have had ma...

actually AWHONN does do online intermed and advance

my favorite is to look at them and ask very sweetly "Did you miss your nap?"

I will also add a can to my kids clothes to get out hidden stains and to save a chocolate covered shirt. I was told this by my granny and did not believe her at the time but use it all the time now. My husband laughs cause I buy a case of coke for ...

if you are using the coke to clean surfaces, it does work. you have to "spill" it over the surface then clean up with paper towels after five min. or so. if left longer can cause stains of own. it is useful for a number of things. a meat tenderiz...

try this. pour a little coke on it. let it set while you load the washer. pour the rest of the can of coke in with it. comes out every time.

In December of 2003 I asked and received advice about a young lady we wanted to help and provide a family for. This is the update. https://allnurses.com/general-nursing...ild-52349.html She has since married and divorced. She has two young child...

Here is an inexpensive tool to help with learning. Go to the lumber yard. Ask for a 4 inch peice of pvc pipe, doesn't have to be but maybe 1-2 ft long. Invest in a large bag of water balloons. Clip the end off of the balloon, slide over end of pvc p...

I have a firm rule when dealing with my fb account. If I can't say it to your face then I don't paste it online. Makes life simple. Use fb to keep up with family and friends not to update every minute of my life.

First off, you errored in writing an order that another nurse took over the phone. You basically said you heard the order and wrote as such. That being done, you are responsible for putting it on the mar. If the order was bid and was not changed b...

HI! Thanks in advance for any and all help. I tried to find a site on all nurses for NICU nurses but couldn't find any. I was always taught that if you had a baby in an isolette for longer than an hour that you needed a temp probe. Does this sti...

I have worked with 2 wonderful male L&D nurses. It was wonderful to watch these men with laboring moms and with the families. Most of our moms didn't care who took care of them just as long as some one did. Then these same moms would come back...

I am sorry you feel this way. It is not a reflection on you but on how intitaled society has become. I applaud you for sticking to your guns. If you don't keep to your standards then what will happen when those who complain are in the working worl...

try nursing made easy on subject needing to refresh on.

It is the putting together of families. They may come in as a single person or a couple but they generally leave a family. No I am not talking about just the mom/dad, but the grandparents, aunts, uncles, the new brother/sister or anyone else. A ba...

Breast feeding, sibling bonding, post partum care (culture wise) are some.

It is perfectly acceptable to say "I don't know but I will find out for You." Then follow through with hand outs, coworkers, or another specialty who knows. The patient will have more faith than if you try to blow smoke up their derier. I know spe...

I love my job. I work as a travel nurse on OB. I get to help women (families) in a time of stress for great joy or sometimes utter heartbreak. I get to help put families together, one child at a time. I love the newborns and the help for the mom'...

I simply say no. Offer no excuses, no explaniations, or any comprimise. Just no will suffice. When you start offering these things, they will try to tell you alternatives. by just saying no, there is nothing they can say.
