  1. 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 also even made the coffee and give it herself allow...
  2. Surrendered RN license

    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 degree in nursing would be a positive but you wou...
  3. 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 but I'm unsure if it would matter. None of them enjo...
  4. Does anyone else ever envy their patients?

    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 a lot more sense looking at her posts through thos...
  5. Worst shift, now depressed.

    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 work)
  6. 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 chance of a code. All interventions that are of risk ar...
  7. 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 misrepresentation. Secondly, I've never found a EEN that ...
  8. I'd like an RN's Input on Professionalism, please

    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 not on prac. i would answer your assignment questio...
  9. I am not proud of my track record.

    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 suspension
  10. I am not proud of my track record.

    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 is fair advice to not disclose it to the school. ...
  11. I am not proud of my track record.

    Anyway good luck OP.
  12. I am not proud of my track record.

    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 charges. I would recommend her self revoking her lic...
  13. I am not proud of my track record.

    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 limit your options by dropping out. I highly doubt ...
  14. I am not proud of my track record.

    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 all
  15. I am not proud of my track record.

    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 'better'
  16. I am not proud of my track record.

    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. That place seemed low stress for you. I don't thi...
  17. Nurses who don't have the "passion"

    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 "calling" or not
  18. So you're just a nurse?

    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 find it annoying (because inevitablely i have to a...
  19. 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 for feeling good about yourself as well as feeling...
  20. Dangerous nurse?

    Is it government or private?
  21. Nurses who don't have the "passion"

    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 got a job that I hated (supposed to be customer serv...
  22. Do women find male nurses attractive?

    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 five shots and empty some pills. And yes, men are s...
  23. So you're just a nurse?

    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 buy a house. I probably never will be able to buy a...
  24. So you're just a nurse?

    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 approaching). Especially if one is an intern! But these peo...
  25. So you're just a nurse?

    I get people ask me about various health ailments Complaints about when them or a loved one went to hospital Asked if "I just wash patients" Or my favourite answer "why would you want to do that for?" Thanks, I think that this is a great go to answ...
