    Good morning! Stars, this is where surrendering to your situation comes in but without compromising your own personal safety and peace of mind. There is no need pursuing rehab unless he's...

    Tweety replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Daily Diary's Entries

    J22, I saw "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" and really enjoyed it. Very good cast and story. There's a sequel called "The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" which isn't quite as good but not

    Unique Offer from Work

    Tweety replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    If the situation at home is violent and one you have to leave immediately this sounds like a good temporary situation. Good

    Good morning! Joe, I'm glad you have some positive memories to look back with on J. Ado, glad the water's back on. I would definitely say for your son's future losing weight should be a...

    Tweety replied to Tweety's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    I watched a documentary our now called "The Return of Tanya Tucker" which is getting good reviews. I'm not a huge fan of country music, but I love a good comeback

    What are the chances of getting COVID-19 working as an ICU RN? CRNA?

    Tweety replied to wl_3's topic in General Nursing

    Probably not because you're going to know your patient is positive and take proper precautions. It's when you're out and about in the world of other people that you're likely to catch it, but I...

    Karen MD started YouTube channel to bash nurses and NP

    Tweety replied to Benzodiazepine's topic in General Nursing

    It's a couple of years old and seems to be only from the perspective that NPs and PA's are dangerous and put patient's at risk because they aren't doctors with many hours of training. This would...

    Good morning...what's left of it. Stars, sounds like an exercise in futility to monitor his drinking but I can understand not wanting to combine the Ativan with the booze. I'm sure he likes that...

    Adding Robots to Help Nurses?

    Tweety replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

    Around here the old "why don't they hire more people" is a bit simplistic because people aren't banging down the doors to take low paying jobs and when they do, they call off a lot, don't work hard...

    Good morning! Joe, hope you have a good weekend. To clarify we had techs on day shift, it was the night shift that was screwed that had no tech. One side on day shift started with 3:1 ratio...

    Is it possible to be a decent nurse if I'm a sociopath or have antisocial personality disorder?

    Tweety replied to uniteddemclub's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. I often see on social media the memes "I'm an empath, I feel too much blah blah blah.." as if that's a badge of honor. I think in some extremes in nursing it can be toxic. I am...

    Is it possible to be a decent nurse if I'm a sociopath or have antisocial personality disorder?

    Tweety replied to uniteddemclub's topic in General Nursing

    Family members know what buttons to push so I would take someone saying you need to be diagnosed with anti-social disorder with a grain of salt. But also being self-aware and working with that is...

    G'day! Worked today. Was in charge again, but wasn't too horrible. We had two call offs so night shift was staffed 6:1 without a tech. Sux. Off for the next four

    It's the opposite here. Winters are considerably lower but I like to keep it at 74 and sometimes warm it up to 76. In the Summer as I get used to the heat I'm fine with having the air set at 80....

    Good morning. I hope that J's biopsy turns out okay. Ado, when I notified the provider of my mistake of giving it two hours earlier he say "okay, thanks for letting me know". He didn't...

    How Does Witnessing and Performing CPR Affect Nurses?

    Tweety replied to IKnowANurseJaye's topic in General Nursing

    I go on automatic pilot during CPR and shut my mind off and then process it later so I can perform optimally. I can understand it's traumatic for the lay person to watch, especially when a teammate...

    The Movie and TV Thread

    Tweety replied to Tweety's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    In the theaters, I saw "Babylon". It was a bit over the top, but very well done. Obviously had a big budget. The acting was top notch and I would expect a Screen Actors Guild Nomination for...

    Glad you had (mostly) a good trip and sorry you caught covid. I recently traveled to Costa Rica and had a great time. The airports were crowded and no social distancing. I'm surprised I didn't...

    Too Fat To Be A Nurse?

    Tweety replied to Newprospnp's topic in General Nursing

    There's a lot to unpack here. Sounds like you are not the typical person, eating 5,000 calories and not feeling satisfied. Having cravings that won't go away. For most of us eating enough for...

    Good evening. It's kind of a messed up system that someone has to have everything taken away to be taken care of, especially when family are involved. My sister is basically living with my...
