  1. Thank you for your post! And yes, I am not happy about that
  2. You are right, there are too many individuals, as well as the gov, who are overextended. Some because of ligit reasons, others because they are irresponsible. At this point I am not sure why landlords...
  3. Someone not using appropriate language is not the same as saying the "deserve to die" which is what the PP stated. The facility I worked at had an inservice about that part of Obamacare so if you are...
  4. That is right, he should ban the big
  5. LTC Residents and Workers Face Tragedy

    This is so sad that this is how our elderly and disabled are treated. I worked in a LTC facility and really was shocked to find out how it was ran. There is no way that it is possible for nurses/staff...
  6. And last time I checked more people died from opiate/drug OD so why aren't we doing more about that! Meanwhile they allow all the pot shops to remain
  7. I dont think anyone said these elderly deserve to die or advocated for their untimely demise. When people are kept alive artificially or not allowed to die a natural peaceful death (near the...
  8. I agree, I honestly don't see how the system hasn't collapsed already. We have all those issues you state, plus now we have an even bigger deficit plus the an extreme polarization that I don't think...
  9. I maintain an open mind also. I too am watching and hope that an investigation will provide some answers one way or the other (although not holding my breath). I don't think either way will lead to...
  10. I don't believe it was man made (although never say never). There have been scientists that worked in the lab who state it is probable that the virus escaped the lab....
  11. If the nurses didn't receive what they were promised they should have notified the agency at the start and if the agency and/or hospital wasn't able to accommodate them they should have cancelled the...
  12. I also heard they have id'd 30 new strains, didn't hear the specifics but I assumed they were not mutated, if true just as
  13. I have heard that it may be possible that the virus escaped the Wuhan lab where the Chinese scientist were working with it. I am sure we will never know for sure as the Communist Chinese gov covers...
  14. Future Nurses are Brighter Than Ever

    Nursing school has always been difficult to get into as well as the actual program itself. Mine was based on a point system with the majority of points coming from the science classes (micro, A&P...
  15. Beautiful, thx for sharing! @herring_RN Two great minds
  16. It is a shame we dont have drugs that seem to work good yet. I have seen interviews with MD's that have used both plaquenil with Z-pack as well as Remdesivior that have had good results with those...
  17. Unprofessional Conduct Online

    I apologize OP. I didn't read your post correctly. I thought you didn't want to ever go to the facility. I dont blame you for not wanting to be taken care of by someone you feel is being racist toward...
  18. This is all true. Unfortunately we have become a society of me me me, what I want I am entitled to, this attitude doesnt work in times like this when people are expected to make some sacrifices. I...
  19. Am I Throwing My Career Away?

    I agree with PP, you have not shot your self in the foot. Any future employers will ask about the gap and you just explain that you needed time off to care for family. I also agree that you should...
  20. 3M also continued to sell N95 masks to foreign countries in the middle of this pandemic knowing full well we needed them
  21. Unprofessional Conduct Online

    Agree with others, don't involve yourself. If the nurse provided all that info it will come back to them. Unfriend and be done with it. Although I dont understand why you wouldnt want care at that...
  22. Yeah that is not clear. OP. It may or not make a difference depending on the situation. When I first started nursing we were very cordial in the transfers, calling back if needed etc (unless it was an...
  23. I also see some human kindness where I live and am grateful for that. Unfortunately my pessimistic side says that won't last very long and esp depending on how long the outbreak and off work orders...
  24. I agree we do need to take a good hard look at the current healthcare system and IMO in particular end of life care. Having worked in different areas I saw many pts/families want absolutely everything...
  25. I said as far as I can tell (ie not a lie). You are going to report others after all the things you have said, that is
