Working in a SNF has been a real eye opener. EMS is downright rude and condescending. Remember that EMS (mostly male, but I have seen it in the females) are normally the only medical personnel in...

Close to 25% absent today. Have approximately 5 flu cases confirmed. Health department asked me to survey. So far I have found out that my children are the only staff kids who got the flu
Amethya, never discount the loss of a parent to a child. That pain is deep and everlasting. She will definitely benefit from counseling. Your family dynamics may be intensifying those fears of...

The State of Maryland has made epi pens exempt of prescription to facilitate stock epi in every school. No need for a physician's prescription makes epipens for schools accessible to all schools. Wish...

The what ifs when you know what to do are the hardest part. One half of all first MIs are fatal. No warning signs. Let your faith sustain and remind you that, despite his love for you, your husband...

There is so much you can tell from actually seeing it. Gross, but true. To OP, you may want to make sure your son has a good plastic bag, or even better, an emesis bag, to help the

Oh my, so sorry. I can't imagine losing my wife. I will be praying for peace and comfort for you and your family as you navigate the new and unwelcomed

My administration is very accomodating. Unfortunately, they are so both ways. Private means customer service becomes a thing. I would ask admin what they want you to do. They are the ones who must...
I really wonder where the insanity is going to end. Boys these days are marginalized in the educational system, just look at college enrollment numbers. Couple this with the proliferation of first...

Christianity is the only faith that states one way or Hell and is based in love. These two things mean someone with a nurses' heart wants to cure the whole person. No other religion honestly cares...

I cringed when I saw more than 20 responses, knew it would go out to the general boards and these "Holier than thou" Atheists would come in. Please, please, read beyond the headline and at least read...

Unfortunately, this wording is too vague. It sounds really nice, but most people only care about themselves. I would reword it to say pretty bluntly that you wish to reduce the spread of the flu by...

Also had a snow day, but scheduled my son's follow up ortho appointment at 0815, so I was up before a normal school day. I scheduled his next one for afternoon since it looks like we are on a...

I ask for the issue as I am grabbing my loaded and ready Braun Tympanic and try to have their temp checked within 10 seconds of entering the door. The final 90 seconds are spent educating on...
Never mind that there was ice all over the place yesterday, we ARE doing outdoor recess! Now the nurse becomes the secretary to call all the moms for the mud monsters coming in the door. Thankfully, I...
This is exactly what I was discussing with my son yesterday. Other children see the child as lazy and ducking work. This is the perception from everyone around them. It is extremely difficult to not...
