    When confidentiality isn't quite the same

    Jensmom7 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    You sound shocked. That means you most likely haven't been around health care very long. Back in the 70s and 80s, every floor in a hospital had a chalk board prominently displayed at the Nurses'...

    Jensmom7 replied to johndough's topic in General Nursing

    Nope, no Olympic Backpedal for you. This is what you said: "I'm surprised by some of these comments and how rude they are. Obviously alot of people done forgot how it was when they were in nursing...

    Do RNs get extra pay for working with students?

    Jensmom7 replied to johndough's topic in General Nursing

    No. Others before you have slung that particular slur at us. Nothing could be further from the truth. Of course we remember what it was like in school. What makes most of us shake our heads is how...

    Stephen King Readers Thread

    Jensmom7 replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    I am my own worst enemy

    Jensmom7 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Personally, I think he's the Cherry Ames of the 21st century. And about as believable. But still a fun read when you're on the mood. Addendum-I just looked over the title list for Cherry Ames books;...

    Jensmom7 replied to johndough's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, I'm beginning to feel really bitey here. Once again, students are NOT precepted. New employees are precepted. Preceptors for new employees are most of the time paid extra for their efforts, and...
