    Are Five Alternatives to ADHD Medication Right For You Or Your Child?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to brenanpeak's topic in General Nursing

    She said they're both neurobiological disorders, which is a mighty short bow. Diabetes and hypothyroidism are both endocrine disorders; nobody thinks that means the symptoms are the same. She made a...

    Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    You do realize that dictionary.com doesn't create language? Language means what people use it to mean. Note the recent evolution of the word "literally." I owe you no references. No one owes you...

    Patient NOT a nurse with a ???

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to JWFeeII's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I understand that people wish for more privacy, but joint replacements are high fall risk. Always. Period. The short-lived awkward situation doesn't begin to compare to a fall

    Patient NOT a nurse with a ???

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to JWFeeII's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Clearly not ortho. I worked ortho. We did not leave patients alone. One patient was verbally abusive until the nurse left; He then fell and popped his pretty new knee back open and required several...

    Unconventional hair colors

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to ScientistSalarian's topic in General Nursing

    I've always had to roll my eyes at policies against "unnatural" hair color. Nothing looks more unnatural on some people than blonde. As with other forms of body art, you may have the freedom to choose...

    Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    You just made a rant post about how people here can't handle bluntly delivered truths, but here you didn't say "I disagree with other interpretations of this post," you basically said anyone who...

    On the contrary. I understand exactly where you're coming from with the exact words and questions that OP used. I am interpreting the questions a little differently based on the impression that OP...

    Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    1sttime has said here on AN that nonconsensual sex acts (for example, sex with an unconscious person) aren't a big deal, so I don't give two shriveled figs about what he thinks regarding women who...

    Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    Not what you said, eh? I did not, as you quoted, say I was "100% female," though in both cases I think the "quotes" were reasonable extrapolations of the meaning in the original text. Unless you...

    Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    Your questions are gross. Were you not aware that both males and females have a wide variety of naturally occurring hair growth patterns? Because that was covered in my education a number of times....

    Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    To get back to the core of OP's questioning, let's take a look at nursing as a career. Flexible scheduling, solid income, science-based, room for career and educational growth in any number of ways......

    Do women find male nurses attractive?

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    It makes me so angry and frustrated that we live in a world where people think they have to make a show of gender stereotypes to prove themselves, especially with the idea that it relates in ANY way...

    SO MANY. One that hasn't been covered yet is "could of" instead of "could've" and other ways the person spells something close to what it sounds like, but the words mean totally different things. I'm...

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to uniqueguy34's topic in Long Term Acute Care

    OP worked LTAC, not LTC. Having worked LTAC I can see someone coming in on a drip (yes, we took people directly from ICU on occasion) and I can picture an admission being handled that poorly and none...

    NotAllWhoWandeRN replied to uniqueguy34's topic in Long Term Acute Care

    The LTACH failed in a major way by admitting a patient without ensuring they had the medication they needed. But you also need to know that "If you didn't chart it, it didn't happen" always, always...
