    Well this is a genius idea!!! I'm going to start doing that so I know who is losing my icepacks! I have to admit, at the beginning of the year, I was very free with who got icepacks. So, I'm pretty...

    Charting has to be done no matter what?

    KeeperOfTheIceRN replied to Blackcat99's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Anyone leave over money/salary issue?

    KeeperOfTheIceRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    It sounds like you might be more upset with the fact that they won't own up to their mistake than the actual issue with pay. Which is totally understandable. We all know that with HR, if YOU make a...

    KeeperOfTheIceRN replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School
