    medication to dry up breast milk?

    Nascar nurse replied to ashleyisawesome's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I had babies in 94 and 95. No meds given. suffered horribly with the first one for about 48 hours. Second time I asked for a prescription for just 10 Darvocet at discharge - worked like a charm....

    "That's where they keep big needles to stick bad little boys."

    Nascar nurse replied to raianne's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, I'm going to admit to being a dumb orifice once when my son was small. He was probably about 6 and he had been acting up all day and I was about to my whits end with him (he was typically a good...

    If I Said on Here What I Wanted to Say.

    Nascar nurse replied to DixieRedHead's topic in General Nursing

    At least daily I pound out some rather obnoxious reply that says exactly how I feel...then I re-read it....then I erase it and just go back to reading different threads. If I really feel strongly...

    How did YOU make YOUR transition from Floor nursing to Administrative nursing??

    Nascar nurse replied to MiaRNoffduty's topic in LTC: Directors, Assistant

    Well I'm not sure. Have you spoken to a trusted management person about this before? Is there someone in management you get along with well and you feel you could ask honest input from? Are you...

    MDS Coordinator salaries

    Nascar nurse posted a topic in MDS Coordinator Information

    I know I have asked this before, but people change so fast on here I thought I would see what the response was like in 2006. So, if you don't mind 1. How much to you make as MDS Co (or if you're a...

    Nascar nurse replied to mqurse37's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Sorry, I disagree. I would never support giving an Ambien to someone at 6pm...1. They have not even attempted to fall asleep. 2. Would a pain pill help them be more comfortable if they need...

    Do you find this article insulting?

    Nascar nurse replied to cacentralvalley's topic in General Nursing

    Not to be picky, but Medicare pays 100% for the first 20 days. As a 25+ year veteran of SNF nursing, I'm not really insulted by the article. It seemed to me the author was more upset about the 3 day...

    serving alcohol to patients

    Nascar nurse replied to mqurse37's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Yes, you can give alcohol to a nursing home resident with a Dr order. I was only 19 when I became an LPN. I had a LOL with an order for one ounce of wine at bedtime. I was a little worried at the...

    Medication given against wishes

    Nascar nurse replied to nurse7272's topic in General Nursing

    This is the comment I was referring to - In re-reading it I may have initially misunderstood. I initially took it that the nurse friend was only telling the OP about the pain meds. Now I'm reading...

    Medication given against wishes

    Nascar nurse replied to nurse7272's topic in General Nursing

    1. See if the hospital has some kind of an official "compliant" department. I was misdiagnosised last year and I was assigned a particular person to advocate for my concerns. I had plenty of proof...

    Teach me about Thyroid Problems

    Nascar nurse replied to KateRN1's topic in General Nursing

    Wow. Who is REALLY being attacked? I was only making an assumption (my bad) that it is surprising to find someone with so much experience asking for a detailed explanation for a disease process...

    "If they really cared about their mom, they wouldn't of put her in a nursing home"

    Nascar nurse replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    The argument is with a 23 year old who has most likely never been made to make these choices. Hopefully this same 23 year old was fortunate enough to grow up in the perfect little family, with a...

    Ah ha....now this makes sense to me.

    Teach me about Thyroid Problems

    Nascar nurse replied to KateRN1's topic in General Nursing

    I was thinking the same but...I guess I would look it up myself rather then rely on information from someone who may or may not know what they are talking about (you have to admit - we have seen some...
