  1. I Hope You people are never my nurses.

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to honeyforasalteyfish's topic in General Nursing

    Excellent choice likely it would making lifting patients much safer for everyone. My choice would be WALL-E, but really that is a sentimental choice. I suppose to I might take him to the park to let...

  2. Disturbing Conversation on Overweight Healthcare Workers

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to FutureDNP2021's topic in General Nursing

    It's an absurd argument. Nurses that are to obese to do the job fine keep them out, but that is a slim category of people. Pun intended. Most people comment how slim, and skinny I look. You know what...

  3. I Hope You people are never my nurses.

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to honeyforasalteyfish's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you I felt like I might have made to many qualifying statements on the humor for it actually to be enjoyable, or that people might get offended that I was trivializing things. I went the safe...

  4. Forced to get flu shot or wear a mask

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to nurse0614's topic in General Nursing

    As I posted earlier that I do take immunosuppressants, and it did nearly result in a life ending infection. I have a an auto-immune disease called crohns. Of of course I would rather not take the...

  5. I Hope You people are never my nurses.

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to honeyforasalteyfish's topic in General Nursing

    You know the downside of that though. When your nurse robot came home it would likely be programmed to endlessly lecture you on the dangers of consuming to much chocolate

    Is it true in Chicago they forbid the use of ketchup on hotdogs punishable by the death

  7. I Hope You people are never my nurses.

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to honeyforasalteyfish's topic in General Nursing

    There will always be bad nurses. Just as there will always be bad cops, doctors etc. We are people, and we make mistakes even the best of us. That doesn't mean we chalk it all up as futile, and not...

  8. I Hope You people are never my nurses.

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to honeyforasalteyfish's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you very much. I am sorry to make this thread. Inspiration for this thread was a thread on recycled topics. So I thought I might try to add a surprising variety to people AN experience. I still...

  9. Forced to get flu shot or wear a mask

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to nurse0614's topic in General Nursing

    From what I have read this thread has been beat to death, and my post will probably be lost in the shuffle. Its not that vaccines never cause side effects, or illness. It's that such things are...

  10. Which AN Poster Has the Job that You Think Is Most Interesting?

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to traumaRUs's topic in General Nursing

    Me Gavin513 obviously. Because my day job is actually as asecretly rich dark streaked complex with a bat fetish. I spend my days catching criminals with new interesting non-lethal technology, but I...

  11. Yep. Nurses do "eat their young"

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to Dianna11's topic in General Nursing

    Your point about respecting authority is a good one, but I would add a caveat. Unquestioning respect, compliance, and the idea ANYONE above you is beyond critiscism can lead to terrible results. I...

  12. Less judgment more, construction. Don't tell me I cannot, tell me how to, and this is why.

    honeyforasalteyfish posted a topic in General Nursing

    I shouldn't have to hide my struggles for fear of discrimination, but I find that is exactly what I am doing. Since being honest about what is going on in my life may cost me my future. That disgusts...

  13. Getting into Nursing school with a misdemeanor

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to mrs303abuse's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    My apologies I hope I have not hijacked the ops thread with an erroneous question. As it is once upon a time I committed certain non violent misdemeanors as a teenager for which I was fortunate never...

  14. Hospital & The Drug Screen: I thought they had to wait?

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to cassimoo's topic in General Nursing

    The vast majority of illness associated in this category the medication only treats the symptoms not the cause. It's why the medication requires regular use. Anti-depressants function the same

  15. No more rudeness!

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to WheatGerm's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If you want to change the perceived nursing culture you are going to have to change world wide culture in general. Most people try to be nice and polite as often as they can. They remain people...

  16. Getting into Nursing school with a misdemeanor

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to mrs303abuse's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I don't know I was under the impression breaking the law, which speeding is, was classified into two overarching categories. Misdemeanors, and felonies. With subcategories in both

  17. Gpa to get into nursing school

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to Alexis89's topic in School, College Programs

    It really depends on the school. Some won't even consider with you without a 3.5. Others you could be have a relatively decent shot at admittance with a lowish 3. Every school takes different factors...

  18. Getting into Nursing school with a misdemeanor

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to mrs303abuse's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Wait I have a couple speeding tickets I never thought they would be issues. I get there are levels to misdemeanors, but I didn't think minor crimes like speeding tickets, or parking tickets were an...

  19. Can I use my teas score taken for an ADN program for an LPN program?

    honeyforasalteyfish posted a topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I fell just short of my ADN program's reading reqs by 1.6% that's basically one question. I get one more shot, and I have basically 4 months to prep so I think I can pass, my overall score was 7...

    honeyforasalteyfish posted a topic in General Students

    I am getting an A in microbiology, an A in anatomy and physiology one, a high B in gen chem. If my grades hold I will have a 3.4 cumulative, and above a 3.6 science gpa. If I could squeeze out 4 As in...

  22. Bad grades turned good. Can anyone relate ?

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to kida123's topic in General Students

    Yes we can really a 3.5 cum is good enough to make you more than competive for many nursing schools, it might not get you into all of them, but I feel a 3.5 cum is good enough for most schools. That...

  23. Bad grades turned good. Can anyone relate ?

    honeyforasalteyfish replied to kida123's topic in General Students

    I can totally relate. I dropped out of college with a 2.55 cumulative. I was academically dismissed my first year at university. That year I lost 60 pounds, and my RBC count was 69% of normal. I could...
