    Are these things a CNM would do?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to JJ1994's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Seems to me that you don't want to accept that if you can't abide by certain requirements set forth by the exact career you are pursuing, that you should possibly look elsewhere. You also may notice...

    Are these things a CNM would do?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to JJ1994's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    It's highly unlikely that being a CNM or a nurse in general will allow you to pick and choose your patients at will. If you find a clinic that does so, then let us know so that we can avoid it. You...

    Are these things a CNM would do?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to JJ1994's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    You're kidding right? Please tell me you are. Who are you to judge if a child will or won't be in an ideal home? Believe it or not, many women are stable enough to want a child, but don't want to be...

    Are these things a CNM would do?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to JJ1994's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Again, then CNM probably isn't for you. The moment a single mother or LGBT couple finds out that you refuse to help them because of your beliefs (not talking about abortion here, different story),...

    Are these things a CNM would do?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to JJ1994's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    So basically, if we can't have kids naturally, then according to your beliefs, we aren't allowed to? Really? Maybe CNM isn't the job for you

    New to Home Health

    ButterflyRN90 replied to costarica786's topic in Home Health

    I have one patient who also has an RN and a HHA. The RN does her duty when she's on (verifying orders, giving meds, assessment, charting, monitoring, bathing, GT feeding, etc. ). When I'm on duty I do...

    Medicaid paid company, but company didn't pay me! ADVICE PLEASE!!!

    ButterflyRN90 replied to edwardsrn62's topic in Private Duty

    Again, stop generalizing new grads and PDN. I'd rather do PDN than floor nursing as a new grad. Quieter, more easygoing, and no rush with meds. I'm able to continue school while working in my field....

    Be careful with posting things on quizlet. Someone thought it was smart to post test questions and answers and now there's no more test review for certain classes. Instructors use the internet as well...

    Are these things a CNM would do?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to JJ1994's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    So if I couldn't get pregnant with my husband naturally and wanted a child and chose IVF, you'd refuse caring/educating/helping me? I'm not understanding here. I'm Christian, but the patient has a...

    Does abortion play a role?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to Jen_Loves_Nursing's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Maybe try NICU or postpartum or nursery. In nursing our opinions, beliefs, and morals don't count when we're caring for a patient. I'm a Christian, and although I'm not really a fan of abortion, it is...

    Big pay cut at Orlando Health, please help your fellow Nurses

    ButterflyRN90 replied to skyflight's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I'm glad ADN is the minimum to enter nursing, otherwise I'd quit my program. Maybe some could wait two more years, but many can't. I'd be devastated if I was told after working my behind off in the...

    Night Shift Dulls your brain

    ButterflyRN90 replied to Emergent's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Try night shift PDN. You're all alone except for the sleeping patient. By 3am I'm counting down to 6am when I can end my shift, race home, and drop dead asleep in my room with blackout curtains, rain,...

    Pocket References For Clinical?

    ButterflyRN90 replied to MurseJJ's topic in General Students

    Most hospitals don't allow this because of "selfies" with patients or procedures. You never really know if a student is texting or Facebooking. We do however carry "cheat sheets" attached to our

    I have the Littman that I bought in LPN school. They're better for auscultation than the generic brands from school. A bit pricey, $100, but worth

    I'm a type 1 so I won't really speak for those taking oral meds, but I've gone from a 420 to a 66 in 1.5 hours with a small dose. Everyone reacts differently with insulin, but yes, a snack after...

    Rule of thumb: Don't start buying cutesy things. Some cutesy supplies will be unable to be used in the program until you've finished processes and gigu. Get the basics. Watches from Walmart with a...
