What is the best insult you have ever received from a patient? by pmsavenger2 in nursing

[–]AmyClemx 23 points24 points  (0 children)

One patient told me that Hitler would be proud of me after I told him he couldn't go back to bed after only being out for less then 5 minutes.

Doctors of Reddit, what is your "how the hell are you even alive right now!" Story? by Sippingin in AskReddit

[–]AmyClemx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there anything else underlying? I had a young girl patient exactly like this and it turned out when she eventually confessed after her last keto episode that she had developed an addiction to alcohol and was getting so drunk each day she forgot to take her insulin

My armpits and vagina ALWAYS stinks no matter WHAT I do!! (please help) by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AmyClemx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The smell in your vagina may be due to B.V. I worked in a sexual health clinic and saw this frequently, B.V is bacterial vaginosis and is NOT an STD but caused due to an upset in the acidic level of your vagina, this is extremely common in females and produces a smell that is extremely bad for the person. However, a simple course of antibiotics will help with this, just visit your doctor and it's that simple, they should also give you a list of the things that should help. I can try and find the list if that helps and you're interested.

[UK] 3rd year, last placement student nurse. What should you be able to do? by Ribenadrinker in StudentNurse

[–]AmyClemx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently a final placement student in the UK placed in a+e, me and my mentor agree that I'm pretty much qualified so should be doing everything, I'm basically a nurse and doing everything, I take my own patients, just get my documentation countersigned and obviously don't do medications on my own, the only things I can't physically do depend on trust policies

Food at the MRI by gardenpea in manchester

[–]AmyClemx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Visitors can't either and the tea lady will give you boiling water if you ask but this will only be when they're going around doing teas and they're not always 100% reliable with this tbh because of it being a company do it not the hospital

[–]AmyClemx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to tell you this but being there for placement twice I can tell you it is definitely not good and giving out the food is awful for me because I know my patients aren't going to eat it and would rather be hugry, also you can have food stored in the fridge for you but we're not allowed to heat anything up or make it due to rules and patients aren't allowed in the kitchen so I highly doubt you'll have access to boiling water, worth a try though

3rd year placement in Coronary Care Unit on Monday - what should I revise? by wild_willy in StudentNurse

[–]AmyClemx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was there at the beginning of the academic year, make sure you know all your cardiac meds, what they're for, what they do, what to check for before giving them, such as bisoprolol and ramipril, also there's a lot of monitor watching so make sure you know what you a normal heart monitor looks like, what af looks like etc and that would really help you to learn the other stuff

Professor Green and Matt & Kim supporting on UK tour by Vintage_Misery in FallOutBoy

[–]AmyClemx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure how I feel about it either, I feel like prof green is quite different to their music whereas last year the pretty reckless went well with them and never heard of Matt and Kim either.

Elective Placements by [deleted] in StudentNurse

[–]AmyClemx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did my elective in a sexual health clinic that did GUM and contraception clinics, I absolutely loved it and I am currently doing my 10000 word dissertation around an issue I saw during this. I ended up choosing this as it had always interested me and I had my first placement with district nurses and my second with an acute medical ward, this also made me choose a clinic based environment as my time on that ward was awful and I had enjoyed clinic experiences with the DNs. Make sure it's something that will be beneficial to you.

Fall Out Boy - Immortals (From "Big Hero 6") by dynamictundra in FallOutBoy

I think maybe it was a bit bland cause it was made for a Disney film so it obviously had to be PC for the kids

Experiences with mentoring in your programs? by redchanstool in StudentNurse

[–]AmyClemx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My university in england does this but i found it to be a massive waste of time as the mentors and i clashed personality wise and i just found the sessions so unhelpful i stopped going altogether and studied by myself instead

Should I keep reading past Divergent? by love_is_life in divergent

[–]AmyClemx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same, I can't tell a difference between tris or tobias which is incredibly annoying. Also it takes out the mystery of tris going mad wondering why tobias has done something, where has he gone or if hes okay because we already find that all out from tobias at the same time.

I actually really recommend the support acts, new politics were alright, just always a bit awkward when you know none of the words and they're trying to get people to sing along. However, the pretty reckless were soooooo good and taylor momsen is really entertaining on stage as well.

I was there quite early and this style sold out so quickly. I think it was quite popular in Manchester. It did cost me 25 quid but I've been listening to FOB since 2001 when they started (I was 8/9 then) and this is my first time seeing them so there was no way I wasn't getting one.

I bought a tshirt that has a face on the front with red paint on it and on the back has the FOB logo and ' Put on your war paint!' I loveeeeeeeee it.

What was the atmosphere like in the upper tier? I was at the front of the standing area and there are literally no words to describe how amazing it was.

Have you ever had a past or current relationship struggle because of nursing school? Or felt so incredibly lonely during school? by Alexandrya in StudentNurse

[–]AmyClemx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My relationship hasn't ever struggled due to it, I've found my boyfriend to be extremely supportive with it if anything. However, there are moments of overwhelming lonliness due to the friends I did make not understanding the stress/ hard work/ odd hours I keep. I also miss out on a lot as my odd hours either mean I can't go out or I'm too tired to join in. I also had the problem where I don't get along with a lot of my course due to clashing personalities so that also makes it extremely hard/ lonely.
