  1. New specialty bullying?

    You will have to determine when to take crap or give two shakes of a rat's behind about pettiness. My advice is to ignore it unless it is something that is affecting your wellbeing considerably. If it...
  2. Self-Actualization in Nursing

    You can send me your paycheck as a donation to graduate student. It has been said that the surest way to self-actualization is helping the needy. I am being facetious; however, I think you should...
  3. Rooting out Racial Bias in Nursing: Hope and Grace

    I wish there more details divulged about her situation with racism. I do know for a fact that America as a society is obsessed with racial
  4. What else can be done about a nurse sleeping on duty??

    To the people saying that she should be reported to the board, I am wondering how the BON will ascertain that she is indeed sleeping on the shift. How do they distinguish facts from...
  5. THIN

    I used psychosis connotatively, not its denotative meaning in the medical sense. If someone is perceiving himself/herself as "fat" and they take insulin to maintain metabolism, then his/her eating...
  6. THIN

    I hope you are doing well. You have truly educated and opened my eyes to something that I was quite oblivious to. What do you think led to your anorexia/bulimia? I have often thought that it was the...
  7. THIN

    I never thought about that. Thanks for the lesson. I cannot fathom that level of despair. Quite unfortunate. I’m very
  8. THIN

    People still thyroid medicine to maintain being thin? it's a cold world out here.
  9. Sounds like you are getting your ducks in a row. I think you are looking reasonably competitive once you finish those science
  10. Failed clinical portion of nursing school during COVID

    She is here soliciting information, but she is not receptive to valid responses. If anyone is making assumptions, it is the
  11. What else can be done about a nurse sleeping on duty??

    I echo this sentiment. Entering into the patient's chart that the nurse was sleeping is opening a Pandora's box that neither the nurse entering it nor management can close. That is another unthinking...
  12. I hope this is not true about colleague violence

    I am a guy and I find this logical (or lack thereof) conclusion absolutely reprehensible. I am glad that you looked more into it other that being subject to academic
  13. The patient specifically asked the OP about God, not religion. Why would he/she direct the patient to a religious person I.e pastor, chaplain etc. Why make the assumption that the patient was...
  14. Feeling Extremely Lost And Angry About Graduating

    Take a deep breath. Most of what’s frustrating and irritating you currently will be insignificant if not irrelevant in a
  15. Top right corner, hit account, then sign
  16. Failed clinical portion of nursing school during COVID

    If you truly learned nothing, either the university you attended was inept, or the teachers were incompetent, or you did not have the receptiveness to learn. I suspect the latter. Quite unsurprising...
  17. It depends on the definition of "God". If we are talking about the anthropomorphic interventionist high in the sky, I know for certain he does not exist and given that invariably, there are exceptions...
  18. The Abrahamaic God exists as much as Santa does, up until one reaches the age of reason, about 12
  19. RN coworker discouraged me

    Perhaps a hypochondriac who's compulsive about infection control could be a great nurse, granted I don't know what "great nurse" entails. I see that phrase used loosely around here. Nonetheless, if a...
  20. RN coworker discouraged me

    Contrarian retort here: what if she is right on the hypochondriac part? Those people do exist
  21. What else can be done about a nurse sleeping on duty??

    I am not sure about videotaping her. I doubt that is in your job description as charge nurse. I heard a story of someone who did that and the person being videotaped said she was praying and sued for...
  22. Some people have done that. You’ll certainly need an extra year or more to do prerequisites that nursing won’t provide for med school, MCAT, applications etc. Why not do a degree in Chemistry or...
  23. NBC's The Nurses - Just another nurse show?

    I guess during my time that technique was reserved for the initial room set up before admission by housekeepers let alone CNAs. Salute to your generation. However, I am glad that nursing is...
