Seriously ???

But don't violate the three ellipse commandment again; lest ye raise the wrath of Far on you're helpless soul.

Did you say "you're" just to mess with me?

Did you say "you're" just to mess with me?

Now that's downright vindictive OD.

I thought it was cuuuuuute.

What do you want me to say.... You guys still make zero sense to me. So I just roll my eyes and move on. Your threads pop up in the main area so you will get nurses from more traditional backgrounds reading your posts..

I, too, agreed that zero tolerance was illogical. I now deal with parents, most of whom are educated, as I am in a private school, who do some of the most illogical things in regards to their health. Until you become the ONLY medical person in an environment, it is hard to insert yourself into our world. To come off the main site and not see the audience is either myopic (which, you are evolving, so I doubt) or arrogant. Our world involves educators and we are here for triage. For kids to run around taking meds and puffs off their inhalers puts us in a precarious position of being uninformed when things escalate. Elementary students, as shown here, are ill equipped to manage their own inhalers; I have coached my middle schoolers who have prn inhalers in my office. We try to maintain a pretty light hearted environment here, a stark contrast to the rest of AllNurses, so it is a little shocking when non-school nurses come in. The thing that sticks out for me is, when I go on general discussion and find I was wrong, I acknowledge, not seeing that here.

Hey, don't just roll your eyes and move on. We've offered our perspective in response to your post. Please share your rationale and perspective. Maybe we can learn something from you and vice versa; maybe we'll just end up disagreeing, and that's OK, but at least lets explore the dialogue. Whadda ya say?

Well said! It's hard to explain this area of nursing to anyone who has not worked in this environment, it's so very different from other specialties.

I appreciate ellipses.

I am as stubborn with this as OldDude is with that blankety blank t shirt.

My wife always seems to do a whole line, I am conservative by comparison.

Really??? You can't see the validity of any of our points about school-aged children and their inhalers in school? I don't mind non-School Nurses coming here and commenting-I love them to see our world but if I read a post in the OR Nursing or Travel Nursing or nay other non school-based Nursing forum I don't think I'd be so quick to dismiss their protocols and practices in their nursing environment and I certainly wouldn't for a second think that I have a better handle on their jobs and how they should perform it than they do!
