Thank you, Joy Behar!

Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in Nursing Humor

You would think they would realize that dissing the people who get to decide the size of their IV and Foley is probably not such a good
Thank you, Joy Behar!

Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in Nursing Humor

Ah, yes, The View. Proving once again that women can also be knuckle-dragging
Mandatory flu vaccines

Jensmom7 replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

Not so much-that one has kind of degenerated into a peeing contest, and has wandered off into homeopathic cancer treatment. Some interesting reading, but you have to wade through about a metric...
Nurses don't know the lab

Jensmom7 replied to ezpzpizzi's topic in General Nursing

Nurses don't know the lab

Jensmom7 replied to ezpzpizzi's topic in General Nursing

Since she never called a code, not really lol. They did once I hit the ER, though. It was something you NEVER heard, and everybody and their brother showed
ANA: 'Zero Tolerance' for Workplace Violence, Bullying

Jensmom7 replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

Actually stopping patients and families from abusing the Nursing staff is sure to lower those precious Press-Gainey scores. So, that ain't gonna happen any time
Nurses don't know the lab

Jensmom7 replied to ezpzpizzi's topic in General Nursing

Yes, but when we vent, we come HERE. To a Nursing forum. We don't go to a Lab Tech forum and rave on about how awful and thick headed they are. OP's choice of language and tone was incredibly...
Why are the floor nurses so unwilling to teach?

Document Everything!

Jensmom7 replied to pcatorn's topic in General Students

That feeling of impending doom is real. When I was having an anaphylactic reaction at work, the last thing I remember before I stopped breathing was telling the totally clueless Nursing Supervisor...

Why are the floor nurses so unwilling to teach?

Jensmom7 replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

Of course I do. It was almost 40 years ago, but I remember. I remember our CI telling us in no uncertain terms that we were guests of the hospital, we were to stay out of the staff's way, and if she...

Jensmom7 replied to pcatorn's topic in General Students

This thread is funny as heck, but I had a co-worker back in the early 80s who actually DID chart like this (yes, the same one whose patients ate "bowels of

Jensmom7 replied to 2bnursebeckky's topic in General Students

This is a Nursing forum. Therefore, our experience and feelings are based on our experiences in the Nursing world. Frankly, what you did in the military is irrelevant. You can continue to belabor...
9/5 What I learned this week.....

Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

Oh, band camp exists. I went 3 summers in high school. The neatest part was after one week, a bunch of strangers actually sounded like they had been performing as a band for a good long time. Never...

The Controversy: Mandatory Flu Vaccines

Jensmom7 replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

This thread really needs to go away. It's a visual representation of Einstein's Definition of Insanity: Saying the same thing over and over and refusing to acknowledge actual facts doesn't make it...
why aren't gloves better

Jensmom7 replied to direw0lf's topic in General Students

When gloves were first recommended back in the 80s, it took hospitals several years before they reluctantly provided cheap gloves that tore when they were put on. So, yeah, they aren't going to spend...
Administering Fentanyl
