    School nurse credentials in California

    MrNurse(x2) replied to dennis8's topic in School

    I realize that the job market is tough in most places, which forces new grads to look at non-bedside positions. There are plenty of posts in this forum regarding new grads entering school nursing. I...

    Does the same rules apply to doctors

    MrNurse(x2) replied to mrsfoster601's topic in General Nursing

    A case of arrogant bullying. He basically told them "I am a doctor, don't question me". The sad part is docs NEVER do CPR, they know what drugs to give, but given a BLS scenario that would happen on...

    I'm LEAVING!

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

    I am fortunate, we have all school lunch. I rarely get interrupted during lunch, they are too busy eating and socializing. Jersey, I can't get the picture of a grumpy Bob the Tomato from Veggie Tales...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to shedevilprincss's topic in General Nursing

    Had an interesting conversation with a pain specialist at WVU. When I first started, very few patients needed more than Morphine 4 mg, that was considered a huge dose back then. Now, sickle cell...

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

    I would go to administration first, as it is most likely your assessment that matters, not the teacher. I would have had to say to that parent that she didn't meet the district's criteria to go home....

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

    We had an AT that did health classes leave last year. I am developing curriculum for classes. I am starting a 6 part drug abuse unit for MS after break. Looking forward to it, but also wondering how I...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to lovely07's topic in School

    My teachers are on board 100% with this. They bleach wipe door handles through the day and we have whole school clean at the end of the day, focusing on touchable surfaces. I have noticed a difference...

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

    The thing that keeps rewinding through my mind is, all this was not that important. I would have called the parents to pick up the child and kept him safe, and I believe you see that now, too. I have...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to StudentA--'s topic in General Nursing

    Not sure of your age, but something that will take you far in life: your attitude is most of your experience. I can pretty well predict that you will most likely hate nursing given your attitude. This...

    How do you tell your MS/HS kids it's only a cold?

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

    I discourage cough drops and syrup, they really don't work. I give my standard spiel of pushing lots of fluid. We allow water bottles, so that works well. I also pull the unexcused absence on my 3-8th...

    Nursing Boards control of Nurses

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Cougar1113's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    She is a nurse in Canada, a nationalized system. Therefore all health care facilities in Canada are under the government, her employer. I am sure her tax documents at the end of the year show her...

    Nursing Boards control of Nurses

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Cougar1113's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Let's look at the real setting here. She is a Canadian nurse, they have nationalized healthcare. She effectively went on social media and criticized her employer, which I am sure is a violation of her...

    Why Do Nurses Quit?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    After three decades in nursing, I have seen change that is not for the better. When I began in 1989, I was a graduate nurse for three months before I ever sat for boards. I then waited another three...

    When do you call home?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to mc3's topic in School

    I have 2, and 1 of those I have reduced calls to real events, and she is OK with that. My thought on this is that is their problem, not the schools, especially in a clinic as busy as yours. Really,...
