  1. Sexy male scrubs

    banterings replied to Betenhauser's topic in Men in Nursing

    Betenhauser, You are welcome. Glad I could help. The Gentleman's Handbook. The Essential Guide to Being a Man is a good resource as well. Although I have not read this one, I would recommend it: How...

  2. Nursing's Transition: Creating Inclusive Healthcare Settings for Transgendered Patients

    banterings replied to Jessica Quigley's topic in General Nursing

    Dogen, you are correct that the individual approach is best. I have a couple friends that are MTF transexuals who live as women, but refer to themselves as "trannies" (slang for transexual). They...

  3. Sexy male scrubs

    banterings replied to Betenhauser's topic in Men in Nursing

    Betenhauser, The best advice is to get them tailored. All my "gentleman's suits" are of a classical British cut (double breasted). I have to have them tailored because of the obesity epidemic in the...

  4. Nursing's Transition: Creating Inclusive Healthcare Settings for Transgendered Patients

    banterings replied to Jessica Quigley's topic in General Nursing

    This has already been decided by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and it is WRONG not to refer to a trans person by their chosen/preferred pronoun (which is the one that matches their brain's gender)....

  5. Nursing's Transition: Creating Inclusive Healthcare Settings for Transgendered Patients

    banterings replied to Jessica Quigley's topic in General Nursing

    malenurse69, there is much more to it than just that. Read "Court Rules That Transgender Patient Tortured By Doctors Is Protected Under Obamacare." I am going to chime in on the Bible since it was...

  6. Wellness Programs - Incentive or Violation of Privacy

    banterings replied to MatrixRn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    [COLOR=#003366]MunoRN, The original corporate proposal was mandatory. Employees in the corporate headquarters (i.e. rank-and-file workers such as administrative assistants) told their bosses...

  7. Wellness Programs - Incentive or Violation of Privacy

    banterings replied to MatrixRn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    The original proposed CVS wellness program was mandatory. The threat of lawsuits caused them to back off. Do you think that the employer is not going to get that info? How does a 3rd party charge...

  8. Wellness Programs - Incentive or Violation of Privacy

    banterings replied to MatrixRn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I did not make the comparison. The original CVS proposal was extremely invasive and mandatory (conditional for employment). The employer would have access to all the data and the wellness program...

  9. Why does the Patient know best?

    banterings replied to EandERN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I pronounce it "20 cents."

  10. What's the meanest thing a patient has said to you?

    banterings replied to fangirl's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    To put these in perspective (except for the physiological based comments: insulin levels, dementia, etc.), what is the meanest, rudest, nastiest thing you have ever said to another person. These...

  11. Why does the Patient know best?

    banterings replied to EandERN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    First let me address sources. The best source for free resources and the defacto industry standard is the National Library of Medicine (NLM) maintained by the US Government's Department of Health and...

  12. Wellness Programs - Incentive or Violation of Privacy

    banterings replied to MatrixRn's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Are you ready to be really afraid? Then read on.... It is true that they have back pedaled on the medFICO, but that is because your regular Credit Score Can Also Describe Health Status. (Source:...

  13. Complacency in Healthcare

    banterings replied to Jacqueline.Damm's topic in General Nursing

    First off I do NOT loathe your profession or any of the healing arts. (That is you making assumptions about me.) I could ask, "Why are you attacking me personally?" So you have a copy of my resume in...

  17. Nursing School Vs Med School, no comparison

    banterings replied to MedStudentNotRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    It seems today I am not getting the hint, hint, nudge, nudge of what people are

  18. Nursing School Vs Med School, no comparison

    banterings replied to MedStudentNotRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I don't know...... ......ask the person in the thread that I mentioned. I just remember reading a post (I believe ) on AN where the person who posted talked about training...

  19. Complacency in Healthcare

    banterings replied to Jacqueline.Damm's topic in General Nursing

    Are these magical powers? Then you do the same thing that you accuse me of. I am sorry, I work 12 hour days and check my emails when I have breaks in my day. Everything that I have asserted, I back...

  20. Nursing School Vs Med School, no comparison

    banterings replied to MedStudentNotRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Yes, I do. I also stated NO opinion on debate of RN vs. MD vs. NP vs. PA. That was not what I was debating. If you read my post, you will see I was responding to FlyingScot's question of, "Please...

  21. Nursing School Vs Med School, no comparison

    banterings replied to MedStudentNotRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I have some derivative of Hyperthymesia‎ (like Marilu Henner) where I [basically] remember [almost] everything, but can't always recall when needed... Anyway, I believe that it was on this...

  22. Always the Instructor's Fault......

    banterings replied to MFaf's topic in General Students

    Is this NOT true of every profession? I believe that: "When you point a finger to blame someone else, there are 3 fingers pointing back at

  23. Complacency in Healthcare

    banterings replied to Jacqueline.Damm's topic in General Nursing

    So what do you think a better strategy is? ...politely asking not to be abused? Why does ethical behavior have to be inspired? That is the "everybody else is doing it" excuse. That is exactly my...

  24. Complacency in Healthcare

    banterings replied to Jacqueline.Damm's topic in General Nursing

    You seem to give advice anonymously. I just speak truth.... I will just take that as "NO" and "NO." I am not talking about the doctor's skill, I am talking about watching that other people in the...

  25. Complacency in Healthcare

    banterings replied to Jacqueline.Damm's topic in General Nursing

    I never point fingers. When one points a finger at someone there are 3 fingers pointing back at one's self. Forgive me, but to a patient this would all sound like sitting around and singing...
