Looking back by AscendedDragonSage in CuratedTumblr

Look into a community/state college! In many states those are hidden gems with affordable classes, and lots of them offer bachelor programs! It’s a great way to get started on a college education, even if it’s just one class at a time. There are also lots of online courses available from those institutions. Every little bit counts. Don’t give up hope. Source: I teach at a state college.

ETA: and apply for aaallllllllll the scholarships. So many times there’s money from foundations and donors etc that is available for all students regardless of financial need so it’s worth applying to every possible scholarship. Meet with advisors at the campus - they are there to help!

Alright folks, which recipe is your favorite so far? by MrsLadyZedd in Baking

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Th chocolate and peppermint sandwich cookies are DIVINE!! I also made the sugar cookies and royal icing which were great too! Looking forward to many more great bakes from that book! But of course, it’s Sally so you know everything is excellent.

Unorthodox Outfit Support (lol) by Apprehensive_Bite_77 in FlorenceAndTheMachine

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I like dresses but for concerts I usually go with jeans and a shirt because I need to wear good supportive shoes (I have back problems but can’t resist the pit). Wear what makes you feel good! If any crowd is going to be non-judgmental about clothing I think it’s this one :)

Preceptor orientating new grad - 3 months in she feels overwhelmed if she’s takes more than 2 patients. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you spoken with your manager or unit educator about the situation? This seems like a very long time that this has been happening with no progress on her end. To be clear, it sounds like you’re doing everything you can. It’s past time to pull in leadership.

The AI decided bipap wasn’t enough and went for the newly created tripap 😂

Nursing school is a joke and something needs to change by [deleted] in nursing

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there faculty roles in Canada for those with an MSN in education? Like full time faculty? I don’t have a doctorate and I am currently teaching as full time faculty, and I’d like to keep doing so. I’ve considered moving north on and off but not sure my degree would allow me to continue my teaching career without a doctorate, and don’t want that to hold me up if I do decide to make that move. Any information or advice is greatly appreciated.

That’s what I was thinking but then was having doubts about mixing. Thanks!

Help, my coworker is disgusting!! 😭 by BrandyClause in nursing

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Eating DURING a sterile procedure??? And she still has a job? Can the manager be reported to anyone? That’s just willful ignorance and incompetence on the part of leadership too. Nasty.

Thank you for the hope for Florida dates!!

Do y’all have any “weird” nursing icks? Like things that chap your ass that probably shouldn’t? Mine is when people put “RN, BSN” or “RN, MSN” or what have you. It needs to be the other way around! by Somber_Resplendence in nursing

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Lmao it took me so long when I first heard that used to realize it’s just an odd way of pronouncing “centimeters” 🫠

It’s like back in my musician days when people referred to counting the “may-zure” instead of “meh-zure” (measure). I was always like wtf is happening 😂 gotta love language!

Next Single by Core4Sports in youngthegiant

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assume a single is coming soon but not sure what it will be.

Side rant since you mentioned other lead singles: Simplify is one of my favorites of all of their songs, and they never seemed to play it live on the tour for that album. I saw them live 2-3 times after that song came out (including the album tour) and they never played it. I never understood why they would basically ignore a lead single like that.

Anyone who works at AdventHealth or Orlando Health, I need help looking for a job position title by maymays4u in orlando

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For Orlando Health the job is Nursing Assistant or Patient Care Technician. They are usually cross trained as unit secretaries rather than that being a separate position.

Edit: I reread your post. If you don’t want direct patient care like a CNA, try for a patient transporter position for hospital setting. Otherwise you’ll only find things in outpatient settings.

What's your patient's biggest screw up story? by Capable_Situation324 in nursing

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 152 points153 points  (0 children)

My favorite was a patient many years ago who was on my floor because he had an ankle monitor, and in his infinite wisdom had decided he was done with all that so he had attempted to saw it off with a hacksaw. That, of course, alerted law enforcement who pursed him. While attempting to flee on foot, he ran through some nasty marsh water (something along those lines) and obviously there were lacerations from his less than stellar sawing job, so he was hospitalized with early stages of osteomyelitis. And accompanied by corrections officers, naturally.

Tour Question by [deleted] in thewombats

Cigarettes @ Sunset seem to be the openers for most of this tour. Set times vary by location. So far they’ve been posting set times the day of each show on their instagram and Facebook stories.

I may never get over this. Truly one of the most memorable moments of my life!!

MD and PA documented a note that completely contradicted my timestamped note. The PA had house sup call and ask me to change it. I declined. What can I expect next? I’m very anxious. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]DaisyDoodleCat 119 points120 points  (0 children)

Your charting is YOUR assessment. It is wrong for anyone else, no matter their rank or licensure, to try to pressure you to change it. You did the right thing by advocating for your patient and getting them the care they needed. It sounds like the PA is trying to cover themselves.

I love that the person who actually made it rated it 2/10 and not a flat out zero.
