K9lover ASN, RN

I've pondered this since I was eaten for lunch as a new grad upon discovery many fellow RNs just rejoiced at new grad mistakes. I loved school; very intelligent and aced everything from my degree through the RN program however RN program did not leav...

Don't be ridiculous. This comment is rather akin to saying if they did not go to the police and report having accidentally ran a stop sign hence lying by omission next thing you know they'll be running red lights, driving 100 MPH in school zones and ...

Wow you are a ***.

Indeed, then my husband must have 'imagined' same officer being at our house on a non-cite report and officer telling my husband he (the officer) was concerned because he'd tried to 'help me get to work' on that day. Does officer telling a 3rd party ...

It is not incoherent, just complex.

It reads to me as 'wrote to DA myself as (my) attorney failed to mention this factoid.' I am not a lawyer however it is my understanding that law enforcement cannot legally advise someone to drive when individual states they cannot. It is also eviden...

5 deaths is an 'exponential skyrocket'? Cigarettes killed more people in the time it took me to type this...

When you state you have 'no filter' that indicates you say whatever is on your mind, this is not a chactertistic which serverves anyone well...unless, of course, the only thing on ones' mind is cute puppies and pretty rainbows. Levity aside I was onc...

For someone who states seeing all sides of the scenario you sure seem to accept everything this student states as gospel from EMS not knowing how to do a BP to c-collar on a 'body' in the road. 'Tis possible person iin road had fixed/dilated pupils e...

Cocaine is still a thing? Why the heck did you agree to a test knowing, at minimum, it would be positive for cocaine when you could have turned down the job? As for THC I am a bit surprised that would show however you state using that more frequently...

I don't know why they teach that narcotics must be diluted. Very few RNs did so, when I did bedside nursing I never diluted narcotics and the only problem I ever encountered was if the previous RN did so without explaining to patient so I'd get the r...

I was raised by an LAPD Sgt who retired after 30 years & went on to work at public defenders' office for next 20 years and we talked about law endlessly, I would have given a shot at law school had I been able to afford it. Law interests me so i ...

Good Lord, you don't know how she feels about it, she could be crying herself to sleep each night for all you know and you have diagnosed her as a sociopath because she asked if this driving offense will have an impact on her nursing license! She ca...

My dad was a 30 year LAPD vet and an invaluable source of all matters legal which he impressed upon me in driving-related matters. That and my adult son had his share of 'driving adventures' when young. I would get a lawyer and attempt to get that ...

Beat you up? Tough nursing school...sounds like the attempted initiation I encountered 1st day at continuation high school.

It is over-inflated, some were hospice and we do not know how many were comatose, actively dying. If death was hastened by one minute by heat the families who did not take them home will sue. Given it was heat rather than a hurricane where were the f...

California ratios are in acute care. I don't know about SNF.

Remember it well..

What was the discrimination? All you mention is that upper management is all white.

You do not indicate much behind the hospital demographics of the hospital, are these thoughts based upon any actions against you or is the thread based upon anything? I have worked in many areas wherein I was the only white person and never given tho...

What are the demographics of the city, is it all white? I have lived in Southern California all of my life and everywhere I have worked; restaurants, motel maid et al and any/all workplaces. have been very diverse workplace, with colleagues up to any...

Many places have a much, much lower cost of living than California. That is a struggle in San Diego.

Don't do bedside nursing anymore but when I did it made me crazy to get a 20 minute report on one patient (not ICU, MS-Tele where 4-5 to get report one.) I really don't care if they had tonsils out in 1965...

Southern California for the county, $50/h for starting wage with experience.

Wow, what a horrible thing to live with, I have both reported and not reported. Working nights as a new grad I had a Pt with a horrible cancer and an order somewhere @ 0.1 mgs Roxanol, 0300 and I could barely keep my eyes opened combined with a pharm...
