    MI at 23?

    That is so nice to hear augigi. Seriously. You can read over and over that the chances of survival with hereditary HCM - which is actually quite low - living to the age of 50, so it is refreshing to...

    MI at 23?

    My baby brother - well my only brother, had his first at 24. He has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Sadly it appears as if I have it too. I've had 3 heart attacks and I'm only 35, he's had 6 and he's 32....

    Hallucinations in the Elderly

    Just another off the wall thought. My grandmother in early stages of alzheimers had problems with minor hallucinations. On the other hand, my grandfather (grandmas husband - same side of family) had...

    What can I do to help a struggling student nurse??

    I think the christmas gift card is a GREAT idea. Make it to a place like walmart or Meijers some sort of super center so that she can get everything she needs at one spot. If she seems unwilling to...

    starting RN to BSN program in January!!!

    I should also be starting in Jan. I was approved for this fall, but I was under the impression that I would be paying a TON out of my pocket so I pulled out. Got a bill a couple of days ago, must have...

    Having problems with NA's and PCT's

    The way I see it, if you are handling them with 'kid gloves' and they aren't doing anything anyway - then who cares if they are gone. you're doing the same job, with or without them there. Someone...

    How Many Nurses are Glad They Have a Union

    There isn't any unions at all for nurses in my area, at least not as far as I know. Not to mention I don't work anywhere i could put it to use (small residential home

    I really want to quit. I need to quit (I have major heart issues) but I keep telling myself. Soon as this is over, soon as that is over then never get it done. I quit for 6 years. That was 2 years...

    P_RN has it right. I wish I would've had this forum when I was in nursing school. They are so supportive here. Do what P_RN says and you should be fine :) Much hugs and my thoughts are with

    can my manager do this?

    I would report both to the BON. Obviously something is going on - take care, users often will sabotage others in an attempt to cover themselves so DOCUMENT

    why so mean?
