  1. Personal Life Affecting Work Life

    Guest856929 replied to Newnurse24's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, you can call me Cyn. Haha! An immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law. I love the connection, especially because I'm one to test and bend questionable laws without...

  2. Can I become a nurse in California if I was convicted of child porn possession in the state?

    Guest856929 replied to chocolateocean's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    So, this was some sort of social experiment? If so, what are your findings? If not, you should consider other productive ways of spending your

  3. Personal Life Affecting Work Life

    Guest856929 replied to Newnurse24's topic in General Nursing

    Greetings good sir, I'm not sure if it is intentional, but you always find a way to make me laugh even in the most inauspicious and/or inappropriate of

  4. Personal Life Affecting Work Life

    Guest856929 replied to Newnurse24's topic in General Nursing

    You have received some great advice from people who have gone through similar circumstance. I just want to add that if a man says he's neglected, he is halfway on the journey to cheating, if he hasn't...

  5. How to deal with nurses who don't listen during handoff?

    Guest856929 replied to guest1068752's topic in General Nursing

    Hit the main points which should take 1-2 minute/s top uninterrupted. Some new nurses will have trivial details e.g foley fr size, IV gauges etc. If she is not listening stop and ask do you have any...

  6. Multiple doses in same syringe?

    Guest856929 replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    Drug dealers are already using carfentanyl to lace heroin. I saw a documentary showing drug dealers in Baltimore using it. They wear gloves and ventilated masks because of how potent it is....

  7. Multiple doses in same syringe?

    Guest856929 replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    I'd say dilaudid for long-term pain and fentanyl for short term pain. So if the patient is in sudden sharp pain that is post op, I would break the pain with fentanyl then use dilaudid to mitigate the...

  8. Multiple doses in same syringe?

    Guest856929 replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    What about reconstituting it? If it is 100 mcg vials, use a 10 ml syringe and make it 10mcg/ml or use a 5 ml syringe and make it 20mcg/ml. If you do that you'll save yourself the headache of...

  9. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    Are LPNs/LVNs still in acute settings? I haven't seen any in a long time. Before grad school, when I travelled, I did see an LPN on the IV team in one hospital in

  11. Can I become a nurse in California if I was convicted of child porn possession in the state?

    Guest856929 replied to chocolateocean's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    If that is the case, why did you solicit advice

  12. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    It is a nuanced discussion. It made me question my understanding of an attempt. You are right however on the clout drama threads accumulate. I suppose the adage "misery loves company" has stood the...

  13. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    OH! Thank you for the clarification. It is not as grotesque as I had pictured from the original post. Nonetheless, piercing the epidermis without using a cleansing/chlorohexidine wipe is quite...

  14. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    Indeed, there is no definitive definition. I imagined what OP meant was the student pierced the epidermis 7 times. I was wondering about how many IV needles were actually used. I actually had never...

  15. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    So if you stick a patient and don't get flashback, then you advance or redirect, you count that as 2 sticks? or if you get flashback then lose it because the IV is advanced too far then you retract...

  16. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    If you can't work with 3 PIVs to fit what's ordered, then maybe it's time to get a PICC

  17. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    7 attempts is not inexperience and lack of proficiency, it is incompetence, if not ineptitude. It is wise to know one's limitations and when to seek guidance. If the patient needed two IV's, the ICU...

  18. Student Attempted IV 7 Times

    Guest856929 replied to ChickenHealer's topic in General Nursing

    The 7 attempts notwithstanding, I think you are a little troublemaker and you should only stick your nose where the aroma won't offend you. You are a student, do what you are supposed to learn and...

  19. Can I become a nurse in California if I was convicted of child porn possession in the state?

    Guest856929 replied to chocolateocean's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I'm confused. You used the first person pronouns in your previous post. I'm not a pedophile. I was receiving Media from some friends in Australia and then the LAPD traced my IP address and...

  20. Is it reasonable for Nurses to be fired who "ran away" from work during the pandemic?

  21. Is there a way to separate the title "Nurse" away from your name?

    Guest856929 replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in General Nursing

    Are you ashamed of the title nurse because it has a feminine connotation to

  22. Intubation Should Be A Nursing Skill, Especially Now

    Guest856929 replied to ErikWeeWoo's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Indeed, repetition is the key to excellence. You also want someone who knows what to do once the patient is intubated. Additionally, you want someone who knows what to do when the proverbial ish hits...
