    I agree that an ounce (or few cc's) of prevention is worth a pound of cure, but Benadryl may work and the child doesn't go to the ED, if you give epi, it's an ED visit. Not to mention they feel

    Field Trips

    MrNurse(x2) replied to shark_nurse14's topic in School

    Are field trips added during the year? Our field trips are planned before school starts and are on the calendar for all to see. I used to have a day off, but now that I have a T1D, I "get" to go. I...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to NurseLady1210's topic in General Nursing

    Suppose I was raised with the attitude that marriage is a partnership and a team mentality. Don't criticize each play, keep the end game in mind. Sometimes the wife will pull harder, other times the...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to knurse10's topic in General Nursing

    I handed the assignment to a nurse complaining that I was taking a patient from her to give to an oncoming nurse and she didn't like the pt. I chose. Amazing how things change when they are going to...

    Foot in the Door

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

    School nurse positions are hard to get. She lost this job to someone who had experience, so she needs experience. The way it really reads is "we want you to work for us, but the bureaucracy says you...

    Annual Health Updates

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

    This is a universal problem. I begged in front of 80% of our parents to be transparent for both conditions and meds, explaining that med reactions are not on my radar if there is a problem if no meds...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to NurseLady1210's topic in General Nursing

    Boston FNP, I still see the OP as venting to an anonymous entity here rather than speaking to her husband to let him know where she stands. Then came the responses that this is somehow a competition...

    Should I become a nurse?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to NoOne1233's topic in General Nursing

    You may consider emigrating to Canada. Economy always plays a part in nursing shortages; poor economy, more nurses in the mix, good economy, less nurses filling jobs. You have found that Canada,...

    Find it hilarious that this has come down to a competition that she must win. Poor position for a safe marriage. Feel sad for those married that feel this way. No wonder divorce is so
