   Quitting while on orientation

   Mom22g1b replied to MDelainy's topic in General Nursing

   I did. I took a position in a LTC/rehab facility and quit immediately on my second day when I found out I would be responsible for 50 patients alone plus all the administrative tasks they piled on. No way am I putting my license and patient safety at...

   Tolerating Abuse from Grieving Families

   Mom22g1b replied to evelynkarirn's topic in Hospice

   That's so true and exactly what I explain to my families as well. It helps them understand and accept what's happening. It completely changes their perception and brings them a measure of comfort and relief, though they are still sad. I also li...

   New LPN/Agency work

   Mom22g1b replied to Jenna_Zapata's topic in General Nursing

   I'm an agency nurse as well. NEVER AND I MEAN EVER ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR A PATIENT FOR WHOM YOU HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN A REPORT. When I am given an assignment, I'm only given the reason crisis care has been initiated. I know nothing else about him/...

   Social Media and Doxxing - Your Thoughts???

   Mom22g1b replied to traumaRUs's topic in General Nursing

   YES!!! There's absolutely NO excuse for this kind of behavior, I don't care what the person being doxxed did. Doxxing has the potential to put the person's safety at risk and also innocent people can get hurt. That being said, the nurse who posted ...

   Social Media and Doxxing - Your Thoughts???

   Mom22g1b replied to traumaRUs's topic in General Nursing

   I agree. They wanted to punish her for "tarnishing" their name. In my opinion, the hospital was out of line.

   Social Media and Doxxing - Your Thoughts???

   Mom22g1b replied to traumaRUs's topic in General Nursing

   I find this unnecessary and vindictive. I'm sure the nurse learned her lesson after this incident and is unlikely to repeat the mistake. There was no need to "spread the word" ?

   Why do I always look high at work?

   Mom22g1b replied to Ella2598's topic in General Nursing

   I occasionally get red, very itchy eyes. My eye doctor recommended Alaway antihistamine eye drops. So far they've been the only thing to help with the intense, maddening itching that makes me want to claw my own eyes out. The stuff is amazing! This ...

    Any Texas LVN!?

    Mom22g1b replied to Amandalee1210's topic in LPN/LVN

    It's difficult to get a job as a new grad. I remember it well. It took me a couple of months before I got hired by a hospice staffing agency. Once you get a little experience it becomes much easier to find a job. I see that you posted back in May. I ...
