    Medical privacy violator gets 1 year- what do you think?

    pagandeva2000 replied to petunia2016's topic in General Nursing

    I agree; this woman should have thought about it well before breastfeeding her baby became an issue. I am straddling the fence about the prison sentence-most of me feels that she should do time....

    Rude or Reportable? I'd like others opinions...

    pagandeva2000 replied to Irish_Libra's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I would have been hurt, angry and humiliated, but this is not a reportable offense. I have seen so many ridiculous changes, but they are not worth arguing about. I would have worded it this way "Is...

    LPN School Advice

    pagandeva2000 replied to cayces's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I don't know about the program you are inquiring about, but I can say that LPN opportunities strongly depend on where you live. From reading this forum, I am seeing that many LPNs have difficulty...

    License Exam After graduating

    pagandeva2000 replied to jigzawnurse28's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I have to agree...don't wait too long. You want to be as fresh as you can before you are distracted with life. Eventually, it gets very tedious to study, and you will not have the same resources...

    Drugs with Salicilaytes or Ibuprofen

    pagandeva2000 replied to pagandeva2000's topic in General Nursing

    This is why you need to get the job, Sue! Plus, you'd have to do some teaching to your chemo patients about avoiding aspirin unless advised by a physician.

    LTACH vs. Clinic job

    pagandeva2000 replied to Wolfe24's topic in Long Term Acute Care

    I am a clinic nurse and love it, but I tried to make sure that I get in some med-surg per diem every now and then so that I can use it on my resume. I don't know what the acronym LTAC means (I know...

    language barriers

    pagandeva2000 replied to jwenny's topic in General Nursing

    I am empathetic towards the patients that do not speak English and believe that learning it would empower them. This does not mean that they deserve less care or consideration, but I don't think it...

    How much does edition matter in textbooks?

    pagandeva2000 replied to babymeena's topic in General Nursing

    I remember once, a professor used to teach a course from a book that was neither recommended or even suggested. In fact, she used to test from it. I saw the book, which was current and it cost close...

    I was fired. Now what?

    pagandeva2000 replied to buickroadmaster2003's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    The RN is refusing to work those hours because the OP was fired after precepting her. It is not that RN who thought she was better than the LPN, it was the administrator that pulled a slick

    OK to apply to ads looking for medical assistants?

    pagandeva2000 replied to Sensoria17's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I feel the same way, I would apply, especially if I were a new grad having a hard time applying for other positions. But, as kat7ap said, the wage may be the

    How much does edition matter in textbooks?

    pagandeva2000 replied to babymeena's topic in General Nursing

    If this is for school, proceed with caution. My experience has been that it was usually safe to get a text that is one edition behind...no less, when it came to required textbooks. For personal...

    Who Benefits More?

    pagandeva2000 replied to Superlost1984's topic in General Nursing

    I am leaning towards the high school students because of the recommendation that fertile women should take folic acid. Newly married is a close second, but, to me, we are focusing on preventing...

    LVN vs RN

    pagandeva2000 replied to mashamontago's topic in General Nursing

    Not all states allow for students to sit for NCLEX-PN while in an RN program. Mine stopped in June, 2007 (New York). You need to find out what the state allows as well as the

    How far do you drive to work?

    pagandeva2000 replied to ajhutch's topic in General Nursing

    I take a bus, and it takes 40 minutes. For me, that isn't bad. If I drove, it would take about 15 minutes, and occasionally, if I am running a bit late, I can take a taxi for 10 bucks. I do believe...

    I will try to remember to bring home the information I have regarding repeating a PPD even after a positive result so that we can compare references, and I'll ask at work. PPDs are a basic...
