There was an episode of "Night Gallery" about a mermaid. The guy who found her wished she had legs. Magic ensued, and at the end of the story she wound up with legs all right, but her upper body and...
I knew a girl in college who would mix her scrambled eggs with grape jelly. Scrambled eggs turn green when mixed with grape jelly. We made her sit at another table when she did

I'm a dinosaur-started school in 1960. Chicago public school. The only time I ever saw a school nurse (a truly fearsome sight at the time to a little 6 year old-she was about 7 feet tall and dressed...
Ultimately, when you graduate, you're going to discover that all nursing school did was prepare you to pass NCLEX. And your pre reqs? No one's going to care in the real world. You will know...
Dear me, still singing the same refrain? Once again, just because someone disagrees with you or doesn't tell you what you want to hear, that doesn't make it bullying. Unless, of course, you're...

Slightly OT, but just a reminder: if you move out of state to pursue your goal (with your experience, a hospital job outside of crazy Cali seems attainable!), if your ultimate dream is to return,...
Nope, I'm not offended at all, just don't agree with you. And that seems to be offending you. This has probably run its course, so before it gets down to name calling, I will bid you good
Nope, you can't play the victim card. Yes, we've all been where you are, but it IS part of the job, frustrating as it may be. What makes you think that anyone would think you selfish if you talk...
In the first pace, those of us actually brave enough to do bedside nursing care have been there, done that. Second, if you were trying to do all that rolling and repositioning by yourself, either...
I'm guessing the patient either fell or died, and she didn't notify the family. Whatever, she's not going to lose her license over it. P. S. Maybe I'm just having a brain fart, but what's an
You're going to keep saying this over and over in spite of anything any of us say to you. You're bound and determined to try and wear the rest of us down. I personally like the "some of my best...
How like a youngster to think that the "old people" are jealous of them. Why in the world, after almost 40 years of hard earned experience in a demanding profession, would any of us rather be in our...
The older I get, the more I'm convinced that the best thing I ever did for my sanity was get out of bedside nursing. Mind you, I got out after 25 years of being "just" a bedside nurse, so I definitely...
As others have pointed out in numerous other threads, just because someone doesn't agree with you, and has no problem letting you know that they don't agree with you, doesn't make it "bullying". Now,...
Regardless, OP isn't going to lose her license over this. As I said before, browse through your state BON site to see the heinous stuff that will really get your license yanked. This is a learning...
Good grief, now the general public is throwing around the "I'm going to get your license revoked" threat? First, breathe. Then, pull up your state BON website, browse through the Disciplinary Action...
Oh, my goodness this brought back memories. Over 30 years ago, gave this all the time in Peds. Thick as molasses and you could feel it going into the muscle; it make a kind of popping sound. The...
