  1. 50 years!

    Feelgood RN replied to prmenrs's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Very nice! Grats on making it so long in a profession that can burn you down to ash. I'll save this and look back later and see how I'm

  2. School Shootings

    Feelgood RN replied to OldDude's topic in General Nursing

    People in the UK should worry about their own cultural problems. If you're not afraid for your children and women then I feel sorry for them. Just because you want or are willing to carry a gun...

  3. School Shootings

    Feelgood RN replied to OldDude's topic in General Nursing

    Until you can show the people of the United States that they are safe there will be no "ban" on guns. As has been stated many times the culture of America is based around our right to protect...

  4. Any Mormon/LDS nurses here? I need help?

    Feelgood RN replied to MaryFutureRN's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't been on this site for a while. This 9 page post is enlightening me as to why I stopped coming as often as I used to. Apparently the reading comprehension of many people on this site is in...

  5. 100 mile commute. Worth it?

    Feelgood RN replied to indomie23's topic in General Nursing

    Are the offers mutually exclusive? Why not both? My job is a 45mile 50minute travel 5days a week. I love it. I have time in the morning to go through what I need to get done for the day. My drive home...

  6. Nurses don't do their 3 med checks?

    Feelgood RN replied to OsceanSN2018's topic in General Nursing

    I'm going to admit I usually only get through MAYBE the first page of comments before I post something. Most people feel learning is what people show you and teach you through verbal, written, or...

  7. The Men in OB Debate: Help!

    Feelgood RN replied to jay_prn's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not reading any of the previous replies and am going with my first impressions. Those people complaining about you being a male and "harming" OB patients are probably snowflakes. In my OB...

  8. June 2017 Caption Contest - Select $100 Winner!

    Feelgood RN replied to Joe V's topic in News, Announcements

    HELP! I'm stuck! The last thing I remember is my pediatrician prescribing me

  9. Gender Pay Gap in Nursing: 2017 Salary Survey vs. 2015?

    Feelgood RN replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    While the post shows traditional gender roles in a workplace environment it is not sexist. He is not getting paid more BECAUSE HE'S A MAN. He gets paid more because his job duties entail more...

  10. Gender Pay Gap in Nursing: 2017 Salary Survey vs. 2015?

    Feelgood RN replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    This is based on a SALARY SURVEY...which is total take home. So if a man were the full time and a woman the part time, and they both had the same exact pay, it would seem as if the pay disparity were...

  11. EVP for 12hr shifts

    Feelgood RN posted a topic in Nurse Management

    So this might now be what you're thinking. Nurses I manage work 12hr shifts. This isn't a thread to support or defend it, I need EVP that shows nurses that working too many 12hr shifts is a terrible...

  12. New RN, leaving after 6 months unprofessional?

    Feelgood RN replied to RubyRubyRuby's topic in General Nursing

    Not all units that need travelers are unstaffed due to no teamwork. The nurses I work with are excellent, the reason we are not fully staffed is because we're an hour to 2 hours from any fully...

  13. ER Interview Advice (questions, scenarios, arrhythmia test)

    Feelgood RN replied to pupRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Our ED Nurse Manager interviews on the same panel as the Outpatient and Inpatient nurse managers. There is no arrhythmia test, I guess it would depend on what acuity your ED is that you're...

  14. Which job should I take?

    Feelgood RN replied to Emmers4's topic in Nursing Career

    I agree with coffeetalker. Also it seems like you've already decided and want permission to tell the first offer off. Until paperwork is signed I'd say it's not accepted, their HR department doesn't...

  15. Feeling Bad Looking for Another Job

    Feelgood RN replied to motor_mouth's topic in General Nursing

    Don't feel bad. Like others have stated, they probably wouldn't feel bad if they let you go, unless you're in with some of the management. The hospital I'm at now has basically taken the whole ED...

  16. New RN, leaving after 6 months unprofessional?

    Feelgood RN replied to RubyRubyRuby's topic in General Nursing

    Lol! I think after all these replies and nothing from the OP it's safe to say that they chose the

  17. Don't do the physicians work!

    Feelgood RN replied to ModernRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    God I hope I'm never on your

  18. April 2017 Caption Contest - Select $100 Winner!

    Feelgood RN replied to Joe V's topic in News, Announcements

    Now I'm definitely going to have to check your lung sounds. They didn't check for asbestos up

  19. Don't do the physicians work!

    Feelgood RN replied to ModernRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I became the nursing manager on the inpatient unit a few months ago. the first order of action I brought up to our hospitalist team was that if they were in the building that they needed to place...

  20. Do you think nurses get special treatment?

    Feelgood RN replied to NurseLife88's topic in General Nursing

    I think there is an overarching sense of professional courtesy between fire, police, emt, and medical staff. We all work in similar venues and have our place in taking care of the community. That...

  21. My hair is dyed.. Job interview

    Feelgood RN replied to mallerina87's topic in General Nursing

    I've done a few interviews and whether you like it or not it can affect some peoples thoughts. We do a panel interview so while I personally don't mind "radical" hair color some of the more seasoned...

  22. Do you remove ticks?

    Feelgood RN replied to Riley RN's topic in School

    I'm not a school nurse, but I like reading your stories! I don't know if this is part of your protocol or not as I hadn't read anything in the comments about it but I think it would be prudent to...

  23. Unsupported at home.

    Feelgood RN replied to NewbieNurse91's topic in General Nursing

    Whether you work 8 or 12 hours, 3 or 7 days a week when your spouse gets home or you come home the first think you don't want to hear is "WHY IS THAT BIN ON THE COUNTER!". Seriously. Take some time....

  24. Nursing Arrogance

    Feelgood RN replied to Flowerchild6065's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It hurt the sensitivities of some visitors to the page as they didn't find the humor to be "nursing appropriate"...or something. Political correctness

  25. Do women find male nurses attractive?

    Feelgood RN replied to Sykadia's topic in Men in Nursing

    I think you've been quite remiss with this comment. I have never had a patient that didn't want to be "nursed" by me. I've had several patients state that they like to have male nurses because we're...
