   NunNurseCat replied to DogLady's topic in Disaster Preparation

   I followed up my comment with another for the OP to consider that I live in Florida. That is how things are here. I'm glad those Canadian workers with protections can do what is right. I do wish...

   How do you do lab work on patients while maintaining social distancing?

   NunNurseCat replied to A Hit With The Ladies's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Dangers of teaching kids they can be boys or girls

    NunNurseCat replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Should any of us live our lives to please others? Should others live to please the OP? Heck no. Let the OP be uptight and miserable; perhaps one day they will get tired of it and find another way....

    Fired for Falsifying Documents. What to expect

    NunNurseCat replied to LPNewbie's topic in General Nursing

    You made a med error, not a chart falsification. Your intent is important. You did this by mistake, so it's an error. If you had gone back and altered the chart to cover up your mistake THAT would be...
