  2. Happy Nurse's Week! You ROCK (literally a rock given to RN's for Nurse's Week)!

    Daisy4RN replied to CABGpatch_RN's topic in General Nursing

  4. Happy Nurse's Week! You ROCK (literally a rock given to RN's for Nurse's Week)!

    Daisy4RN replied to CABGpatch_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I worked for a hospital that did (almost) the same thing. Every Christmas they would have people coming to the units soliciting for donations to the hospital. Didn't seem so bad at first until over...

  5. National Bicycle Day!

    Daisy4RN replied to Davey Do's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    My husband is the one who is mechanically inclined but has only worked on cars, not sure if they are at all similar. Thanks for the offer, when we get around to that we may take you up on it!...

  6. How Technology Can Solve the Nurse Staffing Shortage

    Daisy4RN replied to IntelyCare's topic in General Nursing

    Completely agree with others who have stated that there is no shortage of nurses. Mostly shortage of bedside nurses who get tired of the crap, and it seems faster than ever these days. If anyone...

  7. Comic Character Nurses

    Daisy4RN replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    I am guessing tnbutterfly. Assuming you are paying homage to the nurse in the cartoon. But then again it does look like it is the pt who is flying

  8. No Microchip In This Needle

    Daisy4RN replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    Nurse: I just learned how to give an injection and you are my first patient. They said always make sure you pick the correct size needle for the pt. I am pretty sure I got the right one. Patient:...

  10. National Bicycle Day!

    Daisy4RN replied to Davey Do's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    Yea, Looks like you made it!! My husband and I both have beach cruisers that are over 40 yrs old now. They need some updates and work. I like the idea of motorized bikes. How do you like it?...

  11. Breakroom Pet Peeves

    Daisy4RN replied to DesiDani's topic in General Nursing

  12. Applying to hospital after 2 years in public

    Daisy4RN replied to hapham3693's topic in General Nursing

    It might be hard to get a hospital job with your background but if that is what you want you've got nothing to lose by trying! Just wondering why you want to work in the hospital as it can be very...

  13. Getting off orientation too early?

    Daisy4RN replied to Bean0621's topic in General Nursing

    I highly doubt they will give you any further orientation at this stage, what would be the point for them, they will only be losing more money than they already have lost due to you leaving. If you...

  14. MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    Daisy4RN replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    Obviously police are not supposed to bypass courts. And, obviously people should not be destroying cities, innocent people's shops, looting stores and taking their very lives. So, as kooky...

  15. MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    Daisy4RN replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe it is because that person has been unjustly accused of being a racist so is over compensating. What is your address, I will be right over, maybe you have some stuff I

  16. Your Help Needed: Give A Tip To A New Grad Nurse

    Daisy4RN replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Try to keep a low profile (at least at first) and stay completely out of unit/hospital politics. When assessing who the credible nurses are to ask questions don't just assume it will always be the...

  18. Husband Died—Looking For Low Stress Job Recommendations

    Daisy4RN replied to Midlife452's topic in General Nursing

    Well alrighty then, I stand corrected?. (Although, I did mean this for the OP (not in a general sense as being low stress) as she had a little experience with HD and thought is sounded like a...

  19. Husband Died—Looking For Low Stress Job Recommendations

    Daisy4RN replied to Midlife452's topic in General Nursing

    If you think you are able to deal with the old unit that would probably be your best bet as they are willing to work with you knowing your current situation. Talking to a grief counselor is a good...

  20. Husband Died—Looking For Low Stress Job Recommendations

    Daisy4RN replied to Midlife452's topic in General Nursing

    Dialysis sounds like a good place to start! Good

  21. How do you guys do it for so long?

    Daisy4RN replied to pinkdoves's topic in General Nursing

    This is sad but true! The last few years I worked in the hospital they were putting nurses with 1 year experience as charge and had other "leaders" with little or no bedside experience. The charge...

    Daisy4RN replied to Midlife452's topic in General Nursing

  23. Received Letter In Mail About Hospital Lawsuit At Old Job

    Daisy4RN replied to dreamshake18's topic in General Nursing

    I am not sure I would contact the attorney (that sent the letter) just yet. If the letter doesn't say that you are named in the lawsuit there may not be a need at all or it may not be the right...
