  1. Issues with work

    NursesRmofun replied to LongtermCare85's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    It's hard to say what is good for you, I agree with the first person responding.....you might find that half of the places you go to work are like this. A lot of places are short staffed. A lot of...

  2. A sobering story-------

    NursesRmofun replied to NanikRN's topic in General Nursing

    Of course I feel for this woman...and the family of the baby, as they have to ask themselves "what if the nurse had not made that mistake, would she be alive", and we all make mistakes. I do think it...

  3. Screaming match with my preceptor

    NursesRmofun replied to jherd's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I feel for you because she was rude and mean. I hope you can start on another unit or something somehow works out for you...just try to learn from

  4. Mean People

    NursesRmofun replied to LogCabinMom's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This could go either way. It may improve as they get to know you and accept you or it may not. I'd give it a little more

  5. Having a mental breakdown..

    NursesRmofun replied to mariamarro321's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I worked 1 day as a pediatric office LVN once. The doctors were obnoxious in the office I tried, thinking I should know exactly what I was doing with their preferences and schedule, etc. (on my own)...

  6. I was happy once. Then I became a nurse

    NursesRmofun replied to ebart03's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Yes...and it doesn't seem she has that. Feel better

  7. what can you do when a nurse sets you up

    NursesRmofun replied to oatmeal's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I am not sure what they call this now. Maybe lateral violence?...I am sure there is a title. But it happens. Yes, it does. Some people decide they don't like someone - they rub them the wrong way,...

  8. Aging Nurses - Where do we go?

    NursesRmofun replied to TamDar429's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's a little more than that and more complicated. When we are over 50, we are just not as full of energy as we were in our 30's or even 40's. We may start to have medical problems that have...

  9. Aging Nurses - Where do we go?

    NursesRmofun replied to TamDar429's topic in General Nursing

    I wish there was an ideal job for us over 50 crowd. The hospital is rough, but I have returned to it. I pretty much get too depressed about LTC, homecare hasn't worked for me, and I don't think I'd...

  10. I Don't Get the Anxiety Part of Nursing

    NursesRmofun replied to missmollie's topic in General Nursing

    You were being nice and polite in your answer, but I consider the OP very condescending. I agree 100% that, "... it's the ultra calm laissez faire attitude nurses that are the ones to keep an eye...

  11. What thrills you/what terrifies you?

    NursesRmofun replied to Philly85's topic in General Nursing

    I am long past "thrilled." I can be reasonably happy with a good assignment that works out to still be a good assignment by the end of the shift. Signed,

  12. What thrills you/what terrifies you?

    NursesRmofun replied to Philly85's topic in General Nursing

    Very well

  13. Would you leave your current position over scheduling issues?

    NursesRmofun replied to Butterflyxx0621's topic in General Nursing

    Congrats!

  14. Quitting without a notice

    NursesRmofun replied to turnforthenurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    In a way, I wish I could tell you to pick up and leave now because I really hate how they *sometimes and some places-- put our licenses in jeopardy. I really grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr to that topic. But...

  15. Delegation Woes

    NursesRmofun replied to FutureCRNP's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    That's a nice approach, but I almost always found I had my hands pretty full with my own tasks and didn't always have a lot of time for doing the normally delegated

  16. General Disdain Toward Job

    NursesRmofun replied to shaneb9's topic in General Nursing

    It could be the job you are in or the nurse's job where you are that is getting them evil and angry -OR- it could be burn out. I don't love nursing as much as I use to. At least not in the pressured...

  17. General Disdain Toward Job

    NursesRmofun replied to shaneb9's topic in General Nursing

    I worked with a BSN (done online) that was 1/4 way into her MSN program going for her NP credentials, and she couldn't properly assess breath

  18. Why do nurses eat their young?

    NursesRmofun replied to Perisoreus's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I simply don't think what you learned (in Nursing class) is sufficient to be equal to a pharmacology course. That seems to be your instructors opinion and what I would conclude. I know my ASN classes...

  19. Did I say something wrong?

    NursesRmofun replied to Pkin1477's topic in General Nursing

    That would be a perfect Nurse Manager, if she could just spell it our truthfully like

  20. Did I say something wrong?

    NursesRmofun replied to Pkin1477's topic in General Nursing

    Okay. Just straight-shooting when I say, some people (in all job descriptions) have attitudes and don't want to do their jobs and play games. I find some CNA's will allow the nurses to do as much of...

  21. Mandatory flu vaccines

    NursesRmofun replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    It probably varies a bit, but generally March 1 is the date I heard we become un-maskable.

  22. Mandatory flu vaccines

    NursesRmofun replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    I think my place of employment is serious about the

  23. Mandatory flu vaccines

    NursesRmofun replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    Lucky me (not), they have mine all FREE and waiting. :/

  24. Not getting it as nurses- the view

    NursesRmofun replied to luv2's topic in General Nursing

    The only big deal, IMO, was how idiotic Joy B.'s statement sounded. And I would expect advertisers to react to it and withdraw their business and they did. Other than that...no

  25. The Nurse on the Other Side

    NursesRmofun replied to sheilagood52's topic in General Nursing

    A little devil's advocate....but.....how would you know for sure what this nurse was thinking or talking about outside the room? A lot of this was in your mind or not verified, in reality. The way I...
