  1. A Rough Nursing Shift...

    Daisy4RN replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    I am not working anymore but have felt like this many times 30min into a

  2. I keep Postponing My First Day Of Work

    Daisy4RN replied to Guest1170294's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn’t worry too much about it. It may or may not matter to this manager and you really don’t know right now. As others have stated I would start as soon as possible, do the best you can, and...

  3. GIFs

    Daisy4RN replied to Davey Do's topic in Ars Gratia Artis's Artis

    No inspiration. No worries, only a matter of time before that creative brain gets

  4. Natural "Medicine"?

    Daisy4RN replied to Allison Minor-Green's topic in General Nursing

    In my personal and professional experience I have found essential oils to be helpful. 20+ years ago we used them on the Oncology unit, Lavender for sleep/anxiety/rest, peppermint for nausea etc,...

  5. The Nurse's Role in Providing Spiritual Care - Is It OK to Pray?

    Daisy4RN replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I am sure that the nurse had good intentions (depending on where they got the info re: he was Catholic) but should have called family to ask first. I would never call any clergy if family were...

  6. Are we not talking about the largest nursing strike in US history happening right now?

    Daisy4RN replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    Working at some hospitals in Cali isn’t any better either. They get rid of all ancillary staff that they can get away with so it is still very unsafe (even before Covid). Try and strike you say,...

  7. Inability to Bill Prevents Pharmacists from Prescribing Paxlovid

    Daisy4RN replied to Terry Ann Donner's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I am afraid you are correct. I am not sure what is worse malice or incompetence. Ditto for the fact that Medicare does not cover at home Covid tests for the elderly and

  8. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I have no problem having a real discussion and being challenged but that is not what happens here now is it! It is the name calling etc that is the problem. Think what u will about my statements but...

  9. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I am not sure how stating my opinion and/or defending myself from the name calling is stirring the pot or causing drama! I did not leave in a huff LOL, I do not obviously have the same amount of...

  10. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    You think I am projecting, good one! You just can’t seem to help yourself from implying/interpreting what you think I mean by my words (and calling names) when you could just ask if you don’t...

  11. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Well again your interpretation is wrong, how many times do I need to say it. I think I know whether or not I judge someone! Those numbers sound high to me but IF the study is correct then we...

  12. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Well your view/perception is wrong! As I said I do not judge anyone. I care about the mothers and the babies. I just think we can do better with education Re: contraceptives and other alternatives in...

  13. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Why not mail it?? Yes, he just announced more government spending to lower inflation (which of course means more taxes, higher prices and more inflation), with much fanfare in the WH garden. Much of...

  14. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Of course I know that contraceptives are not 100 percent and I did not say they were, and they most definitely are easily available! IMO, simply dropping off a baby at a safe haven is much more...

  15. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Well since you have no number I would think that the number of pregnancies that result from rape are minuscule. And those women are able to get abortions if they choose. What is interesting is...

  16. What caught your attention in the world today?

    Daisy4RN replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Yes it is most obvious (and has been for quite some time) that the elite class does not practice what they preach! Biden could have simply mailed a ballot but instead decided to waste all that tax...

  17. Upset When Nurses Volunteer To Take On Extra Patients

    Daisy4RN replied to Aloe_sky's topic in General Nursing

    Sounds like you all have 3 pts regardless of the volunteering. The new ones are just trying to make a good impression but will eventually learn it doesn’t do any good anyway (more than likely). You...

    Daisy4RN replied to Davey Do's topic in Ars Gratia Artis's Artis

    Maybe time for a long walk or bike

  19. Can Managers Override Policy and Drs Orders?!?

    Daisy4RN replied to Aloe_sky's topic in General Nursing

    I don’t understand how the NM is being allowed to override the provider order. This needs to be cleared up STAT. What are the Docs saying when you tell them that the manager won’t allow a foley,...

  20. Inability to Bill Prevents Pharmacists from Prescribing Paxlovid

    Daisy4RN replied to Terry Ann Donner's topic in Disaster Preparation

    "No way for medicare or medicaid to submit and authorize for assessment fee". I guess nobody (gov) could foresee the necessity of that. More incompetence from the government, I am shocked!...

  21. Can Managers Override Policy and Drs Orders?!?

    Daisy4RN replied to Aloe_sky's topic in General Nursing

    Even if he was that was still probably not policy as he was not the patients provider. Not sure why the manager wanted you to straight cath but if it was that important he should have spoken to the...

  22. Can Managers Override Policy and Drs Orders?!?

    Daisy4RN replied to Aloe_sky's topic in General Nursing

    No, A manager cannot overide a providers order or the facility policy. If there is a discrepancy between one of those it needs to be clarified. If a manager wants you to straight cath instead of...

  23. The Psychology Behind Talking Politics.

    Daisy4RN replied to Davey Do's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    If the definition of empirical knowledge is having direct observation than I would say no you do not have empirical knowledge because you only saw a very brief snippet of the entire...

  24. Back to Basics: Using Foundational Nursing Principles To Save Our Population from Drowning in the Sea of Media (mis)Information

    Daisy4RN replied to Armesse Cheney's topic in General Nursing

    “Informed decision making” is what stuck out to me. The problem that I see now is that social media sites are (and have been) censoring information r/t Covid that they deemed misinformed which has...

    Daisy4RN replied to Davey Do's topic in Ars Gratia Artis's Artis

    Aww thank you!! Yeah I was gone for awhile, didn’t intend to be that long, I guess my antenna was up this morning LOL. Good to see ya here
