    CBlover replied to justanurse95's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I can't calm your worries. Wish I could. I had it and it is BAD. It spread through my whole family and group of friends. It's extremely contagious. I would wear gloves constantly and a mask and gown...

    CBlover replied to SiwanRN's topic in Addictions

    OP, may I ask, are you in the US? I am going to google this topic, but as of right now I'm quite flabbergasted. As yhl1975 said, I can see disposing of them, but you all are giving them more

    Don't beat yourself up. It's happened to ALL of us. But man I feel sorry for the pts if they get IM shots everytime they need pain meds?

    CBlover replied to Sorebeth89's topic in General Nursing

    Get CNA cert? Before NP?

    CBlover replied to Polly Peptide's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    No I am not an NP. I appreciate your comment because I've thought I absolutely HAD to have ICU experience but I see that's not a must. Learned something new today!

    Get CNA cert? Before NP?

    CBlover replied to Polly Peptide's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I said the same thing. Then I did a little looking around online and sure enough there's such programs. I would NEVER in a million years feel comfortable practicing as an NP with zero nursing...

    CBlover replied to Polly Peptide's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    When you're done. Just done.

    CBlover replied to gemmi999's topic in General Nursing

    I wish I could "like" this 1000 times. It's so true. We're doomed if we do. Doomed if we don't. That's what's so burnt me out with nursing. Well WELL

    Male Nurses in OB

    CBlover replied to belin5's topic in General Nursing

    This is definitely a can 'o worms issue. The male nurses I know would NEVER work in OB. Look at you like you're crazy if you asked them if they were interested. I never knew some did until some here...

    CBlover replied to nursedeena's topic in General Students
