    Ice machine use in hospitals

    pixierose replied to olcroner's topic in General Nursing

    I suggest a good flogging. Obviously. That's how *I* learn best and remember my good manners! Seriously, OP ... as a nursing student myself, refer the student to the policy, explain the why, end of...

    Post-Orientation Doubts

    pixierose replied to Fancychicken's topic in General Students

    'Tis true. I'll amend my original statement to this: if a current student is asked to speak, and they state, "dear god, you'll have no life but school. Expect to be here til 8pm every night. This...

    Post-Orientation Doubts

    pixierose replied to Fancychicken's topic in General Students

    Giving up my dog

    pixierose replied to Bsb5685's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    ^^^ This. People are mean. Mean? No. Disgusted with the OP's actions? YES. Since the OP posted her story on the Internet, apparently looking for hugs or a pat on the back, anything to the contrary...

    Giving up my dog

    pixierose replied to Bsb5685's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Doesn't sound like you're going to hear that comfort you were hoping for, OP. I have two dogs, two kids, and am in nursing school. You make time for who and what you love, whether you are in school,...

    I Don't Think He Meant To Hurt Me

    pixierose replied to SunnyPupRN's topic in Private Duty

    I agree with the (most likely) intent of his actions. And hence lies the problem .... You *will* be attacked again. This type of behavior -- imitating television shows of aggressive content -- has not...

    Whoa, guys. I'm not seeing ItsThatJenGirl making this thread about her. From what I'm seeing -- unless I'm missing something -- she responded 1x in this thread (the second post in this thread,...

    Grumpy

    pixierose replied to 100kids's topic in School

    What an odd comment, posting this on the "School Nurse's" board. They have my utmost sympathy because I could never do what they do for 9+ months a year. Nope nope

    Will I become a bad nurse? How should I change?

    pixierose replied to blueus's topic in General Nursing

    OP, I'm very impressed with your receptivity. That's quite mature, and a potential sign of good things to come. I agree with the other posters in that seeing a therapist is a must. Anger of that...

    Have GAD and Panic Disorder and am being told nursing isn't for me

    pixierose replied to krysteeen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your post reflects a lot of uncertainty, but I get the feeling you already know the answers to your questions. I also get the feeling that you feel unsupported despite the decision you already made....

    Tell my manager or keep the bipolar hidden

    pixierose replied to rhernandez748's topic in Health, Stress Management

    That's the question: who will? As someone who has bipolar disorder, I don't "hide it." I choose not to disclose it, like I don't disclose other aspects of my health (i.e. SLE, high cholesterol, etc)....

    pixierose replied to Nash3222's topic in General Nursing

    Guys, just don't engage. Text speak and incorrect spelling from the poster in question should tell you a lot right there. You know you're awesome nurses; I learn a lot from you guys. Let the troll
