   runningfool replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Actually, there was no pregnancy pact. The principal lied.

2. How is MO???

   runningfool replied to mamamia's topic in General Nursing

   I know what I'm about to post isn't going to be popular and it's not a personal comment to you or anyone else, but geez I don't like when people say this! I don't care if people move here and I'm not...

3. Is there power in the color white?

   runningfool replied to bbfw2's topic in General Nursing

   As casualjim said, I'm not yet qualified to talk about power and problems in nursing, but in my humble opinion I wouldn't say it's power. You're just conforming to how people think you should be or...

4. Plan B

   runningfool replied to pat8585's topic in General Nursing

   I'm baffled by people who think this would be abused considering plan b makes you cramp and have a period. I don't know any little girls or women who want to be flowing and cramping 24/7! I'm sure...

5. Plan B

   runningfool replied to pat8585's topic in General Nursing

   A few things here: 1) It seems to me that alot of women who are pro-choice don't have an opinion on what other women should do or not do with their bodies because they want other women to have a...

6. Male Nurses/female Patients

   runningfool replied to ern91's topic in Men in Nursing

   Many women - not just older women - don't want any man except the one they love and trust (their husband) to see them. As mentioned earlier, many women have religious beliefs about having a male...

8. Male RN-assist with pelvic exams?

   runningfool replied to walnuttree91's topic in Emergency

   Is it really that weird or confusing that someone who was just violated and brutalized by a man doesn't want to be touched - in the same area- by another one immediately afterwards? And the wrong kind...

9. Deaconess start in Jan

   runningfool replied to over30nursestudent's topic in General Nursing

   I'm repeating what the staff told us today at orientation. It's not a rumor. Like I said, I'll scan the letter for anyone who wants to read it. I'm sure the program will survive too because of the...

10. Deaconess start in Jan

    runningfool replied to over30nursestudent's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, I just got back from orientation and there is a chance the online program is going to eliminated due to poor pass rates. They're hopeful that it won't be because of the changes they've made,...

12. Younger Nurses: Do you find people dont take you seriously? (semi-rant)

    runningfool replied to TexasPediRN's topic in General Nursing

    I say the same thing you do. I, too, feel insulted when someone tells me I look much younger than I am. How would they feel if I asked "Well, how old are you? Really?! You look MUCH older!" They'd be...

    runningfool replied to OliveVinesRN's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, The McDonalds case isn't as frivolous as the media and general public make it out to be. I said the same thing you did before we discussed this case in my trial and litagation class....

    Thank you for the advice. I appreciate it. I am really frustrated with him. I gained 20 in the blink of an eye and he didn't seem to think anything was wrong despite the fact that I hadn't stopped...
