  1. Verbally abusive patient, worried I could have handled the situation better

    l1234567 replied to NurseMom2016's topic in General Nursing

    I don't understand why people are so angry at the doctor. It was the smartest thing to possibly do (giving the coffee). It calmed him down, and stopped the situation from continuing to escalate. She...

  2. Surrendered RN license

    l1234567 replied to Elanas888's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I don't work in England. But as far as AUS go there's no way you could do any of those things without an RN license. Your best bet would be to do a post grad in public health and do that instead, your...

  3. An external student(distance education) in Australia but want to move to the US afterwards

    l1234567 replied to Perlas's topic in International Nursing

    I have met a few nurses who dos meet the criteria for BSN-RN with just an undergraduate degree. Did have to sit NCLEX. They all had quite a bit of experience though. I'm unsure if they did distance...

  4. Does anyone else ever envy their patients?

    l1234567 replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    I have the feeling looking at op's threads that she may work in a posh retirement home of sorts that have nurses on staff to help on a as need basis. Therefore not a real LTC. I think that would make...

  5. Worst shift, now depressed.

    l1234567 replied to Aloe_sky's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Why do you have three pts as an ICU nurse!!!? P.s the pts map should be at Minimum >60 always (at least where I

  6. 10 months as An assistant nurse, still getting scolded.. so discouraging..

    l1234567 replied to Jellyunicorntoast's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Also op, incase as a new grad you're not familiar with the areas I suggested I thought I might break it down Mental health inpatients: usually one set of obs done per shift MH and physical. Tiny...

  7. 10 months as An assistant nurse, still getting scolded.. so discouraging..

    l1234567 replied to Jellyunicorntoast's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Okay so our American friends don't know what an EEN is. But I do. Firstly EENs are not assistant nurses. I'm wondering why you would say that? That is an AIN. A completely different role and a...

  8. I'd like an RN's Input on Professionalism, please

    l1234567 replied to ManWithNoUserName's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I recommend against that!! Last thing I would want is to be annoyed by anyone on my lunch break. See if there is a careers day or networking event. I think the assignment is a little silly if you're...

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    Also op I have looked at a few Bon sites. One included Mississippi http://www.msbn.ms.gov/DscAction/dis2015.pdf lookd like minimum of

  10. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure how voluntarily surrending your license and studying something completely different doesn't seem like fair advice. Also the OP has not said the school has been notified etc. so I think it...

  11. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    Anyway good luck

  12. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    Yes but she may be able to get credit towards another program. But I'm not from the US. If she gets a good lawyer and revokes her license she may not get what I'm assuming is referred onto criminal...

  13. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    I would finish your degree and see if you can do graduate entry. Try teaching highshool biology and English. They can take away your license but they can't take away your degree- you will definitely...

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    What do you mean by millennial generation? There has been ethically challenged people from the beginning of time... It's not a generational issue at

  15. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    Fair point, but should we really be quoting 'dr' phil? He's not such a great example of an ethical practitioner. It's like Jerry springer but

  16. I am not proud of my track record.

    l1234567 replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

    You should go back to the place you worked well in and see if you can be a relief or work one day a week. You need structure, I don't think you're a bad person at all. You crack easily under pressure....

  17. Nurses who don't have the "passion"

    l1234567 replied to My_toe_sis's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe you should read other threads then if you are confused as to why nurses get (the term is) burnt out. Because then you wouldn't wonder. This thread also points out burn out does not discriminate...

  18. So you're just a nurse?

    l1234567 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Other than allnurses and a couple of friends I don't like talking about my job. So much so when I am (example) at the hairdressers I say "I work in healthcare" inevitably I get "so you're a nurse?" i...

  19. Are Five Alternatives to ADHD Medication Right For You Or Your Child?

    l1234567 replied to brenanpeak's topic in General Nursing

    We understand that some of these foods that are mentioned are very healthy, but it's something that needs to be restricted from the child's diet. Who is we>? Getting enough sleep is imperative...

  21. Nurses who don't have the "passion"

    l1234567 replied to My_toe_sis's topic in General Nursing

    I did an undergraduate degree which had little job prospects. I then was adamant i wouldn't go back to uni. However life had different plans for me. In one year Iwas made redundant in one job, then...

  22. Do women find male nurses attractive?

    l1234567 replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    On the off chance you are an Australian (use of uni). I think nurses at least in my state are looked upon differently. It's not quite the status thing that America has. People seem to think you just...

  23. So you're just a nurse?

    l1234567 replied to l1234567's topic in General Nursing

    I know this was only an example, but most people respect lawyers over nurses (at least in the circles I travel). Yes see not in my country, you cannot afford a comfortable lifestyle. I can't even...

  24. So you're just a nurse?

    l1234567 replied to l1234567's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for your reply. I think (initially) this was what I actually wanted to address. Sure doctors like my assessments etc, pharmacists like recommendations (although generally I am the one...
