    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

  3. My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, please blame me! Always place blame on others. Never take accountability for oneself! I’m sure it is the nurse who is talking with you and finding you support that is to blame when you are 28...

  4. My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I see on this thread that many people do not believe that gender dysphoria, which is common among people who are transgender, is not a psychiatric disorder. It is. Not knowing the facts is what...

  5. My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Said by someone who evidently believes the world health organization more than the American Psychiatric

  6. My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    You are ignorant! People who are transgender have gender dysphoria which is a diagnosis in the DSM-5. This is not my opinion, this is from the American Psychiatric Association. As a psychiatric...

  7. My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Hmm, The American Psychiatric Association, and the DSM-5, consider transgender to be a mental illness. It is called Gender Dysphoria. We do not use what the world health organization believes as...

  8. My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    The DSM does not change that often. Psychiatrists, and the DSM-5, have gender dysphoria, as a diagnosis. I see liberals hating that diagnosis and wanting to ignore

  9. My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    PsychNurse24 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    And when we have a patient with schizophrenia who believes he is Jesus, we call him by his name, not Jesus. I agree with

  10. Should I call the doctor for a BP of 175/72?

    PsychNurse24 replied to moonshawdow's topic in General Nursing

    I am not pushing the idea of over treatment. In my first response I said “under rescue” was watching and waiting rather than acting. I have countless examples of when watching and waiting was...

  11. Should I call the doctor for a BP of 175/72?

    PsychNurse24 replied to moonshawdow's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that this example of an elevated blood pressure might not be a “rescue” situation. And I recognize that you have an expertise in blood pressure. While I agree with you that over...

  12. Should I call the doctor for a BP of 175/72?

    PsychNurse24 replied to moonshawdow's topic in General Nursing

    When I was in nursing school about 12 years ago, one of our instructors told us that there had been a trend in Nursing to "under-rescue". What she meant by that was Nurses were waiting and watching...

  13. Yale Nurse Replaces Fentanyl Vials with Saline

    PsychNurse24 replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    There are probably bigger pictures surrounding most criminals, but that doesn’t excuse the crimes. Hopefully, this nurse will receive lifelong treatment and/or support, because addiction is a...

  14. Nurse Personality

    PsychNurse24 replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    “I always try to find out how I can make their immediate situation better”. Your whole response, and in particular this sentence, shows that you advocate for the patient. That’s our number one...

    Great article for on-line

  16. New Nurse, On Call, Called Off My Scheduled Shifts

    PsychNurse24 replied to Owlseye's topic in General Nursing

    This never happened in the hospital where I worked. Nurses were never working less than 36 hours a week. I think it probably had to do with the fact that in this smaller city there was only the one...

  17. No Interest/Passion In Being A Nurse

    PsychNurse24 replied to pinkdoves's topic in General Nursing

    You sound like you might be depressed. I recommend seeing a doctor and a therapist before quitting Nursing. If you are depressed and you start feeling better with treatment you might start to enjoy...

  18. Nurse Personality

    PsychNurse24 replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    I work in-patient mental health. For those of you familiar with Myers Briggs personality tools, I am an INFP, which stands for introvert, intuition, feeling, perceiver. We have several types of...

  20. ONLINE ASN TO PMHNP PATHWAYS

    PsychNurse24 replied to MellowYellow0914's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I don’t really care what the “numerous people”, unknown people, are saying. Because I have the experience of going to Walden and I know for myself!! I have never been mislead, I knew what the...

  21. ONLINE ASN TO PMHNP PATHWAYS

    PsychNurse24 replied to MellowYellow0914's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I would say you are giving bad advice. You have not had experience at Walden, have you? And as you all point out there are 50,000 people attending Walden right now, how many are “numerous...

    PsychNurse24 replied to MellowYellow0914's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have already found my preceptors, who already work at my company. They have worked with me for years and have never asked where I’m going to school. And my daughter has already graduated from...

    PsychNurse24 replied to MellowYellow0914's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Most people in this forum are going to bash Walden University. My daughter just graduated and is interviewing for a job before even passing the boards. I have a year left. Walden is accredited and...

    PsychNurse24 replied to dbabz's topic in Psychiatric

    I think there are some pretty good looking scrub pants that have pretty big pockets But they look like business casual. And people most likely would not realize they were scrub pants. And then there...
