  1. TMI for Nurses

    NanaPoo replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    Hee Hee..that TMI info desk cartoon is too much! That is a little too close to the truth. I spent 24 hrs in the hospital last week and hubby came in looking for my room. He was greeted by a volunteer...

  2. Who's Back ?

    NanaPoo replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Double ewww. And apparently work is my happy place. That just makes my soul a little

  3. Who's Back ?

    NanaPoo replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Awww, come on Mom! 2 weeks?? Get it together. That's awful! I left here healthy, was sick the entire break (even admitted to the hospital, for Christ's sake), then return perfectly healthy. What is up...

  4. Need Blog by a Pediatrician?

    NanaPoo replied to huffmannurse's topic in School

    Did anyone see The Bachelor last night where the nutty Nutritional Therapist brought baguettes out of the limo with her, claimed gluten was the devil and smashed the baguettes into the ground? Yeah,...

  5. Guessing game!

    NanaPoo replied to kidzcare's topic in School

    I missed the tampon game! I will never run out of tampons. They will dry rot first. The nurse before me somehow inherited 8 billion of the things and now the rumor goes around amongst my daughters...

  6. Happy Friday

    NanaPoo replied to Hunter'sMom's topic in School

    Vomiting. SO MUCH VOMITING. Norovirus is going around here. I gotta get out of this

  7. The Goose is Getting Fat

    NanaPoo replied to OyWithThePoodles's topic in School

    You look fantastic, Sully! 11 more minutes until Christmas break for me! Wahoo!! Of course, I have a puker on my cot right now and parents nowhere in sight for the pickup so break may start a little...

  8. Your Clinic

    NanaPoo replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Just wondering how many in your student population ? K-8, 360 students. We also have a preschool of 50+ students and I do some quick assessments when they have mysterious rashes and I am the judge as...

  9. Would you hire an MUSC grad over anyone else?

    NanaPoo replied to lowkey_44's topic in General Nursing

    I've lived in several southern states and only know MUSC because I vacation in Charleston every spring. Nursing programs are known regionally and not nationally. The above poster is correct that MUSC...

  10. A student's confession

    NanaPoo replied to JerseyTomatoMDCrab's topic in School

    I'm with ABC123...I would've cried with him. I'm such a sucker, especially for the little ones. I'll cry with middle schoolers, too. I cried twice with the same 7th grade girl last year. First when...

  11. Not a school nurse but...

    NanaPoo replied to Rose_Queen's topic in School

    I'm dying! DYING over here. This is hysterical!! Reminds me of a resident I worked with once upon a time who had a penchant for wearing a red silk thong under his navy scrub pants. Occasionally he'd...

  12. Lavender?!

    NanaPoo replied to huffmannurse's topic in School

    Yep, shittrus is my new favorite word. My hubby has always called it "painting a

  13. Gifts from students

    NanaPoo replied to pistolchick's topic in School

    I've been gifted heavier this year than I'd expected. I've gotten gift cards anywhere from $5 to $30! For places like Starbucks, Zaxby's, Kohl's and Ulta. Oh my, I LOVE Ulta!! Today I got some...

  14. Lavender?!

    NanaPoo replied to huffmannurse's topic in School

    The oil does help the kids slide down the walls easier when they're bouncing off of

  15. School Nurse Holiday Party!

    NanaPoo replied to SnowyJ's topic in School

    I'm bringing the buffalo wings and diet lemonade (had them stockpiled

  16. Not a school nurse but...

    NanaPoo replied to Rose_Queen's topic in School

    Meh, a parent can call me a "not real" nurse all he or she wants. Then I can laugh all the way home at 3 pm every day when the school bell rings. AND when I wake up on the weekends and I don't have to...

  17. I'm Stumped

    NanaPoo replied to SnowyJ's topic in School

    Hahaha!! I'm picturing myself with these girls lined up and I'm pacing back and forth, arms crossed over my chest and threatening to check them for menstruating, aka "shark week." All 4'11" of me...

  18. Does it always get nuttier at Christmas?

    NanaPoo posted a topic in School

    Every year when the Christmas season comes, it gets CRAZY at school. Why is that? Does everyone have their mind on something else so they get hurt more easily? Parents get distracted so they're not...

  19. I added Aquadest on it, didn't I? Omygod! That's alcohol 70%!

    NanaPoo replied to chadvena's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    But it's 70% alcohol?? Ohhh...I think I'm understanding. Someone put alcohol in the Aquadest bottle? Are there no laws regarding storage and labeling of chemicals in this

  20. I'm Stumped

    NanaPoo replied to SnowyJ's topic in School

    Again, like all threads here...I'm rolling. And I can't get this song out of my head, "This girl is a woman

  21. Lavender?!

    NanaPoo replied to huffmannurse's topic in School

    The funny thing is this is a private Christian school so it kinda cracks me up that he gets away with this. He would probably be proud that his little protégés were following his kooky path. I...

  22. Lavender?!

    NanaPoo replied to huffmannurse's topic in School

    Hubby has a Cousin Eddie RV, too that he keeps in the woods (he sleeps there when he hunts). I'd suggest the Peppermint but you literally can't have anything around that doesn't smell like butt when...

  23. I'm Stumped

    NanaPoo replied to SnowyJ's topic in School

    Is it a 4th grade issue at all schools? Every year 4th graders are heavy frequent flyers here and, worse, those teachers don't try to curb the problem. They come in with obviously faked issues and it...

  24. I added Aquadest on it, didn't I? Omygod! That's alcohol 70%!

    NanaPoo replied to chadvena's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    What is Aquadest? In 16 years of nursing I've never heard of it. And, if it's so dangerous to mix with meds why is it anywhere near your med cart?? And why on earth is someone using a wrongly labeled...

  25. Two more hours! Two more hours!

    NanaPoo replied to pistolchick's topic in School
