2. Facility Stopping & Searching Employees' Personal Belongings

   mustanglover replied to All4NursingRN's topic in General Nursing

   Is the CEO, board members, and security searched as well? If it is union, I believe a strike is in order for the unwarranted searches. It is one thing to search a person they know is stealing, it is a totally different story to search every one.

3. Has pain scale contributed to opiate problem?

   mustanglover replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

   Pain killer seekers clog up the waiting rooms, and forces those who truly need care to wait longer for treatment. In stead of being given pain killers they should be getting psych consults. When they ask for a certain pain killer, and you tell them t...

5. Pyxis error

   mustanglover replied to decarla's topic in General Nursing

   If you truly did not take out that drug, I suggest you contact a personal injury lawyer who specializes in labor/working. Lawyers do not charge for consultations so I suggest you report the one who charged you $100 to the bar association. If the lawy...

10. Nursing Supervisor is Inappropriate

    mustanglover replied to Shelby, BSN, RN's topic in Relations

    Is it really worth having a job at that place if you have to deal with his behavior? You could always buy yourself a really nice and shiny engagement ring, when he asks who bought it for you, tell him your fiance who happens to work in law enforceme...

11. Pediatric patients...parents are KILLING me!

    mustanglover replied to lovelane78's topic in Private Duty

    mustanglover replied to lovelane78's topic in Private Duty

    Doesn't the child have an expectation of privacy? If the cameras are filming while the child's private areas are in plane view of the camera it may even arise to child porn.

    How much do you get paid per hour to be a private duty nurse? Is it safe to assume you make at least $30/hr and get benefits. Babysitters get paid $7.50 per hour, this is for complete care including diaper changes. What is the point of having a priva...
