  1. Quit great job to stay home with baby?

    Red Kryptonite replied to Sangrita RN's topic in Nursing Career

    I wonder if people think businesses and institutions are supposed to suspend all their operations while waiting for them to come back from maternity

    Red Kryptonite replied to PrincessZ's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  5. I have a random CNA Question

    Red Kryptonite replied to Cinnibun2618's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    True, but for newborn CNAs it may not be so

  6. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    Red Kryptonite replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Nursing Students

    According to this logic, non cancer victims shouldn't work oncology, those without musculoskeletal problems shouldn't work ortho, etc. Who the heck would work hospice under this paradigm, I wonder!...

  9. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    Red Kryptonite replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Nursing Students

    That's perfectly fine, and your right. But you're consistent. I just wonder about those who refuse male nurses, but happily accept male MDs, looking at, touching etc. the exact same body

  10. Smart move to go LPN then Bridge over

    Red Kryptonite replied to RunnerD1987's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    How can a nursing program have no

  11. Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    Red Kryptonite replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I'm curious too. Apparently men with MD after their name are acceptable, but men with RN are not. Why the difference? I mean, if it's that big a deal, there are female surgeons and...

  12. Is this appropriate behaviour when placing a condom catheter?

    Red Kryptonite replied to canned_bread's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    IME, all of them. I hate condom catheters with a

  13. Is this appropriate behaviour when placing a condom catheter?

    Red Kryptonite replied to canned_bread's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Great post. Circumcision rates are falling in this country, so health care workers better get used to seeing men in their natural

  14. Quit great job to stay home with baby?

    Red Kryptonite replied to Sangrita RN's topic in Nursing Career

    Or maybe just thinking of standard timeline until kindergarten....that's what I

  15. Why do some nurses come across to be rude?

    Red Kryptonite replied to mathboy's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Because there are no "brown" nurses,

  17. "I don't want to die"

    Red Kryptonite replied to anh06005's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I would never say, "You're not going to die." That could turn out to be untrue, and even if it couldn't legally bite me in the ass, it's still wrong to purposely tell someone something you can't...

  18. I have a random CNA Question

    Red Kryptonite replied to Cinnibun2618's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Kind of shocked that no one has yet pointed out that we need to be asking THE PATIENT if it's okay with them for family members to be present during personal

  19. Quit great job to stay home with baby?

    Red Kryptonite replied to Sangrita RN's topic in Nursing Career

    Some people see anything short of full pay for a year off after every baby as

  20. Quit great job to stay home with baby?

    Red Kryptonite replied to Sangrita RN's topic in Nursing Career

    Find something PRN after baby is born. Many moms find that a perfect solution because you can work when you want to, keep gaining experience, and keep your foot in the door, but also never have to...

  21. Nurses with ear piercings

    Red Kryptonite replied to hshuang's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    What disgusting prejudice. Especially the nurse everyone knew for years and was apparently competent, then rejected because of ink added to his skin. I'm no great fan of neck tattoos, but if he had...

  22. 3.4 gpa-doomed?

    Red Kryptonite replied to iheartcells's topic in General Students

    Do you really believe that 100 & 200 level biology is that different..... anywhere? If "prestige" makes you feel better about paying more than you have to, I'm glad for your peace of mind, but I...

  23. 3.4 gpa-doomed?

    Red Kryptonite replied to iheartcells's topic in General Students

    There's nothing above 200 level at a CC, so sure they're easier than 300 & 400 classes. However, they are accepted as equivalent by universities, so they can't be much easier than the 100 &...

  24. Nurses have an Attitude Problem

    Red Kryptonite replied to SunriseDay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you read her first thread, she probably actually needs one, and some supportive, disinterested advice, judging from what she posted about how her mom treats

  25. Stuck with nursing... Easy CA schools to get into?

    Red Kryptonite replied to SunriseDay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why are you allowing your mother to control you like this? Your relationship with her is very unhealthy if you've accurately described it here. Your life won't go anywhere until you break away and...
