    How do you feel about having other nurses as patients?

    Amethya replied to purplegal's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I kinda do, especially because I'm not a nurse, just a CMA. Especially after I had some bad experiences with patients who were doctors or nurses who I guess felt more superior to me and would get...

    Inane scripting

    Amethya replied to Jedrnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Just imagine having to say it ALL the time for everything and if you were heard not saying it, the manager would be following you around to say it. Not only that, I had to go bother people at their...

    Amethya replied to VegGal's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thank you. I'm just glad I left that job, it was just filled with nasty witches and would pick on me after that more because I guess they needed me to go. They got what they wanted, but I'm glad I...

    Overweight RN talked about

    Amethya replied to VegGal's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I would want to talk to their manager and then call corporate office on them with their nasty attitude. I don't let ANYONE talk to me that way, and if they even try I tell them

    Amethya replied to Jacquipals's topic in School

    I'm sort of a parent myself (Niece and nephew, mother died, I am guardian). But still, I don't look at anything down below, that can be taken care of because the students are around my boy's age and...

    I would have the same issue in my last job. They didn't bother me much except for lunch, we would get catering from pharmaceutical companies. I would eat a lot, but because I was hungry and didn't...

    School Nurse Gives Wrong Medication

    Amethya replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    Why was she asking for Motrin? Was it her medication? I get some kids asking for medicine but I know who has medications here or not, so I tell them I can't unless it's under a doctor's

    Why do parents think schools are daycares?

    Amethya replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    I wish we had something like this, but we are not allowed to let the kids carry their inhalers or Epi-Pens. We had to confiscate an inhaler on a kid last time, and mom was upset but we had to tell her...

    Amethya replied to Nursingbabydoll's topic in General Students

    If you feel sick the nurse will call me and you can go home

    Amethya replied to MHDNURSE's topic in School

    I just don't understand the concept of "If your child has a fever and they are sent home, please keep home for at least 24 hours." do parents not get? I know you have work, but if they had a fever in...
