You could at least find out whether that is what's going on or not........possible that it's just a newer nurse making sure they made the right decisions. or just nervous about a hypothetical situation.

Of course it could. So why not ascertain the poster's status/reason for asking before giving answers?

Gotta tell ya, though, that given the fact that OP joined just to post this "question" and the manner in which the "question" is phrased does not point to an actual nurse hoping for clarification of an issue. OP couldn't even be bothered to write a full sentence.

I'll never forget the recent new member who posted (in essence) "I don't have time to chat or introduce myself to you all, just give me the answers to my homework. And make it quick."

I think OP thought he/she was doing a search , not posting. . I don't think this is a case of OP trying to trick the allnurses world into giving her/him homework answers.

I'm incredibly frustrated by posters who literally answer homework questions for first-time posters (those who join Allnurses.com in order to obtain easy answers to homework questions). Those who freely give answers to basic anatomy, pharmacy & nursing questions are doing so much harm to the student who is seeking the easy way out.

Those who seek & receive easy answers to their questions are learning nothing in the process and are literally being set up for failure in the future.

how do you know this is a student? Maybe this is a person who already knows the answer and just wants someone to validate their thoughts? You don't know and either do I. "so much harm" bolded and underlined ugh give me a break.. being able to verbalize an answer is totally different then being able to act it out. last time I checked nursing school is written work and CLINICAL..you can fake your way through the written stuff but not clinical lol who knows maybe you're right and I do agree with your thoughts.. next time I won't answer these questions without more information from OP.

Trust me, this is NOT (bolded and underlined) a person who already knows the answer. This is a person who either doesn't know how to formulate a complete sentence as a question or doesn't care to put the effort into trying. I'm glad that next time you will hesitate to give homework answers to first-time posters who simply want us to do their homework.

I remember that poster!

It was that thread that made me decide never again answer a first time poster who was so in need of the homework hotline and lacking in interpersonal skills
