    Snowflakes

    Jedrnurse replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    If you work in disaster and conflict I would think that you would be even more fed up with snowflake mentality than the average person. It demeans the experience of people going through real trauma...

    Snowflakes

    Jedrnurse replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know, I suspect we might need a new term, maybe "Water Lily". I've lost count of the number of posts by adults who write, "I hate my job, I cry every day/night before going into work. "Good...

    How do you deal with know-it-all family members?

    Jedrnurse replied to StephaneeD27's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I'd pick my battles and let it go in one ear and out the other. Unless you want to go to the mat about it, she won't change. (Even if you do confront her, you'll just end up with bad blood for...

    How much orientation?

    Jedrnurse replied to loriangel14's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'm sure they need staff. It's a shame that the orienting staff (who should appreciate a position being filled) are less than

    Forced to Chart using another employee name

    Jedrnurse replied to Lvn31's topic in General Nursing

    It does sound fishy. I was in a somewhat similar situation for less suspicious reasons once, for a day. I typed in my name and credentials as part of the free text part of the entries. I don't know if...

    Mandatory Vaccination

    Jedrnurse replied to degfnp's topic in General Nursing

    Boy. Antibiotics aren't 100% effective, and they most assuredly can cause adverse consequences. Why aren't more people "Anti-bioticers"?? (provides a nice play on words, doesn't

    Cyclical Vomiting vs stomach bug????

    Jedrnurse replied to nursekoll's topic in School

    Hadn't heard of CVS before, thought it might be related to JSMC (Just Sampled My Cooking), but it turns out it wasn't. Seriously, though, with the other symptoms presented it certainly sounds like it...

    Jedrnurse replied to jess11RN's topic in School

    The irony is that the teachers will end up "paying for it" if these kiddos don't get their meds. You'd think the resulting unmedicated behaviors would have them reminding them on a regular basis. I...

    Commute!

    Jedrnurse replied to chacha82's topic in General Nursing

    Keep in mind that a 12 hour shift is never just 12 hours. On top of that, commutes can be messed up and unexpectedly take extra time (as if a 70 mile commute isn't long enough as is). If your schedule...
