  3. Death's Perfect Timing

    Daisy4RN replied to r_doyle62's topic in General Nursing

    What a beautiful story and well written! I do not think it is far-fetched at all. I believe that we, as humans, are made up of body, soul, and spirit. Her body was ready to go, her soul and spirit...

  4. It Never Occurred To Me.

    Daisy4RN replied to Have Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Kudos to you for going the extra mile. And I only say extra mile because sometimes time does not permit sitting down and talking with our patients. Reminds us all that we need to look at each and...

  5. Are Home Health RNs really paid what they are worth??

    Daisy4RN replied to Scorpiostngrn's topic in Home Health

    No, HH RN's are not usually paid what we are worth. The responsibility and stress is not usually worth it especially if you work per-diem. Exactly what you state, everyone constantly calling you, you...

  6. Is it too early?

    Daisy4RN replied to OsceanSN2018's topic in General Students

    If you have the money I would definitely go ahead and get it now. It will probably only be a little helpful for boards (but every little bit helps) but will (in my opinion) significantly help with the...

  7. At a crossroad

    Daisy4RN replied to Jas10's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Sorry for all the hardships! I do agree with the other posters that I am not sure it would be worth all the trouble. You have a good job with good pay that you like and no issues like you would have...

  8. No Rehire

    Daisy4RN replied to Rachelbolling88's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I would go to the interview and not say anything unless they ask you first. If they do ask, I would just explain that you were an immature kid and now you understand how important it is to be...

  9. Eating the patients' food?

    Daisy4RN replied to blackmamba123's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that stealing is wrong, but if its going to be thrown away and the facility doesn't care if you eat it then I don't think its

  10. Eating the patients' food?

    Daisy4RN replied to blackmamba123's topic in General Nursing

    Technically it is stealing but makes up somewhat for all the missed breaks etc. I think they mean clean unused pt

  11. Do nurses tend to be enablers?

    Daisy4RN replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Me too Hard-hearted Hannah, I am too old to deal with peoples made up drama whether it be from family, friends or patients, and I have seen all. I have loaned money to peers before but like others...

  12. Alarm Fatigue: Patient Safety in Today's Healthcare Marketplace - A Four Part Series

    Daisy4RN replied to Damion Jenkins's topic in General Nursing

    Agree that all the alarms are a huge problem, not to mention carrying around the work phone for every yahoo to call you all day. Not sure I agree that Joint Commission is the answer to the problem....

  13. Los Gatos ER Physician in the News

    Daisy4RN replied to CityofAngelsRN's topic in Nursing News

    RE: Wuzzie post: I have used this too, works very well. Also those who claim they have no ride (and used to get taxi's paid for by the facility), I now say OK, I will get the social worker to get you...

  14. Los Gatos ER Physician in the News

    Daisy4RN replied to CityofAngelsRN's topic in Nursing News

    I have seen many patients like this too, cannot inhale but breathing normal, discharged but refuse to leave for whatever reason etc. I do my (RN) part and then call security. The Doctor was...

  15. Feel guilty about turning down a job offer as a new grad?

    Daisy4RN replied to meganec17's topic in General Nursing

  16. is this bullying?

    Daisy4RN replied to jennalou's topic in General Nursing

    I would not call it bulling but I would call it very unprofessional of the Instructor, and very childish of the other students in the class. As others have said I would take a step back from...

  17. Hopefully this helps. . . struggling with getting past this failure

    Daisy4RN replied to strugglingRN2017's topic in General Nursing

    I too am sorry for your bad experience. Very good advice here so far. Even though your manager might have handled the situation better it is not their responsibility to "care for you" and even though...

  18. Which nurse do you want for your Little Johnny?

    Daisy4RN replied to Pirate RN's topic in General Nursing

    I couldn't agree more, you literally run your bottom off all day long and get nothing except "well, that wasn't good enough", very

  19. Which nurse do you want for your Little Johnny?

    Daisy4RN replied to Pirate RN's topic in General Nursing

    I will take that job too,

  20. Which nurse do you want for your Little Johnny?

    Daisy4RN replied to Pirate RN's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately health care is in a downward spiral and I see no end in sight. So sad and

  21. Miserable nurses

    Daisy4RN replied to FutureNurse0201's topic in General Nursing

    Most people here are only trying to get you to see the flip side of the coin. Nobody condones the nurse screaming at you (if that is what really happened, 2 sides to every story) just pointing out...

  22. Overtime

    Daisy4RN replied to _littlemissBSN's topic in General Nursing

    I leave on time approx. 95% of the time. You are new and your time management will get better with every passing day. I would avoid those "extras" that you do not need to be doing, do your best and...

  23. Miserable nurses

    Daisy4RN replied to FutureNurse0201's topic in General Nursing

    I am not sure that I agree with that. The Instructor doesn't necessarily know what is going on with the nurse (bad day, burnout, just tired of entitled students etc)and/or the employment hx, and...

  24. Miserable nurses

    Daisy4RN replied to FutureNurse0201's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe she was rude, maybe not, but you are making this all about you and the fact that you want her to be fired is not only petty, but mean and unforgiving, especially when you know nothing about her...
