    I had to look up huarachas and it sounds good. Many latin American cuisines use some sort of masa flour dish. Different regions have variations for example apparently Columbian arepas are sweeter...

    Good afternoon. I wrote a post this morning but not sure where it is. I've been a bit distracted. Tired from the time change still. I stayed up late following the Oscars live online but...

    Good morning! We're having weather in the 70's, maybe 80 today so it's gorgeous. It might get "colder" next week down to the 50's. Joe, hope you have a good day and enjoy "A Chorus Line"....

    Misunderstanding in ER

    Tweety replied to bluedreamerstu's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's more like a wellness check if the hospital can't reach the patient. The police might be able to find them and inform them it's in their best interests to return to the hospital and have...

    Good morning! The dogs let me sleep in this morning until past 7:00...well the girl dog tried me but I wasn't ready to get up. Congrats J22 on making it to retirement. All the best in the...

    Misunderstanding in ER

    Tweety replied to bluedreamerstu's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree, this ER did call the patient but making the threat was a bit off. The original poster clearly said she'd come back. Calling the patient should be what you do first. It's what I've...

    Misunderstanding in ER

    Tweety replied to bluedreamerstu's topic in General Nursing

    They would get into more trouble for telling a patient that they could leave while being treated to go pick up their child. You should have signed out AMA and had your IV removed, not given...

    Good evening. I was charge today but with two patients. Manageable but it was busy. Started out with a no show nurse but she answered her phone and came in about 8:30 but it set me behind....

    Ado, that is a tough situation. It never ends. (((Dianah))). I gather your sister didn't have a spouse or children to help. Reminds me that I should make my wishes more clear and make...

    Why Hospitals Don't Value Nurses: A Nurse's Perspective

    Tweety replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    To me that's more of a fact than an opinion.

    Why Hospitals Don't Value Nurses: A Nurse's Perspective

    Tweety replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    The have doctorates. Nurses have LPN certificates, associates degrees and BSNs. Apples and oranges. MARU opinion polls put nurses behind firefighters as the most respected profession. I know...

    New grad to NP. Is it a mistake?

    Tweety replied to Nursenick123's topic in General Nursing

    Given what you've said I don't think it would be a mistake. You will have RN experience and you obviously have the books smarts and intelligence. Pharmacists and Physical Therapists get their...

    Why Hospitals Don't Value Nurses: A Nurse's Perspective

    Tweety replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not necessarily seeing the advantage of that. Our PT department for example has billable hours, but they are still treated the same as any other staff. In fact when we were bought by another...

    Confused nurse

    Tweety replied to ScaredRN's topic in Nursing Career

    I'd venture to say most students are in their late 20's and early 30's since it does take some time and experience to get into school. I agree talking with other nurse anesthetists would be a...

    Good morning! Insomnia bugged me on top of my girl dogs snoring. She's the only dog I've ever heard snore. Around 2AM I finally decided on half a sleeping pill and at 3AM I turned on the light...

    I watched "Decision to Leave" because of its good reviews and its inclusion on my "Best of 2022" lists and award nominations. It was very well done and held my attention but honestly was a bit...

    Good morning! Joe, hope you feel better. My brother and law has a heating pad for his dog and when he dog sits my dogs take over. I have one but they sleep on my bed and are spoiled...

    Lowest Dose of Morphine To Cause Death

    Tweety replied to thisnurse123's topic in General Nursing

    This. Before we got a hospice unit, we would have to do CMO on the floor. I had a patient that if she didn't get morphine would moan in pain, eaten up with cancer. She died very quietly and...

    G'day! It's 76 here. Haven't had rain in a long time. It's 8pm and I'm home having dinner. Been in the 80's for a while. No rain in a good while too. I lost yet another stethoscope....

    Considering how little sibling is helping then one half of 1% sounds about right. Good thing it's spelled out and sounds like he's aware of it. Let him be bitter but if it's in the will end of...

    G'day. Work was okay. I'm not that OCD worker, but my coworkers are getting a bit lazy. No rooms had incentive spirometers, one IV filtrated ("it keep beeping so I just shut it off".), SCDs not...
