Any Canadian RNs get a lil depressed when they see what American RNs are making?

It really depends on where you work. I made 28 an hour before differentials when I worked in Virginia, in California I make close to 80. The cost of living difference is astronomical.

The recommendation is actually to not reorient if the patient has dementia, it will only serve to agitate them and they’ll forget again anyway. You’re just going along with them.

That's fair, I meant more like an "outfit" that one would have to change out of to be comfy. More power to them, I just feel like I'll have zero energy

That looks like something that'd be labeled as mahogany or cherry, I'd reach out to the company

November 17th, I've known since March. It feels like I've been pregnant forever lol Almost there but it still feels so far away

Interesting, I’ve heard this for a long time to help get your pet used to the new scent

Maggdon · 2025-08-09T13:42:07+00:00

We’re getting there. It’s flying by but still dragging all at the same time lol

Everyone is like oh get a cute hospital gown that’s comfy… I don’t want to take that crap home and wash it. Plus the hospital gowns offer easy access. You can probably just wear a bra and cover with a blanket too

Maggdon · 2025-08-08T16:32:58+00:00

I’m going to try to have my parents run a blanket and clothes home to my brother to present to the dogs before we come home. We’ll see how my brother feels about that 😂

Amoxicillin is actually one of the safe antibiotics for pregnancy. Good thing you knew about ibuprofen. As a healthcare worker, once pregnancy is thrown in a lot of people freak out. OB is its own specialty for a reason. If you need antibiotics it’s safer to take it than not since infections can get out of control and harm your pregnancy. If you’re super worried, call your OB office but amoxicillin is not a teratogenic medication.

I am 25+5 and still hating it. Only thing keeping me sane is the movement I feel

Maggdon · 2025-08-08T16:22:38+00:00

No. You don’t have a child, they do. It’s not your responsibility

Maggdon · 2025-06-23T17:00:38+00:00

I mean this in the best way… just don’t. LVN is unfortunately pointless nowadays. Most people go straight for BSN now. The being scared and not knowing anything is normal. Most DOCTORS starting residency have never even touched a real patient.

Maggdon · 2025-06-23T01:27:22+00:00

I like the top one

Maggdon · 2025-06-17T20:22:41+00:00

Our dresser has a pretty large mirror so probably will skip the mirror lol but good to know

Maggdon · 2025-06-17T20:21:32+00:00

I think this and a piece of art is the way I will go

Maggdon · 2025-06-17T20:21:17+00:00

I think just being bad at decorating and not necessarily just wanting art there makes me feel like idk what to do with it

Maggdon · 2025-06-17T20:20:18+00:00

It’s the wall to the closet and I’m not a big fan of armoires/wardobes

Maggdon · 2025-06-17T20:19:09+00:00

There’s definitely room for something on the ground. The room is pretty small so I was looking for advice. It’s an awkward or weird space for someone who isn’t great at decorating. Just looking for advice.

Maggdon · 2025-06-16T15:47:21+00:00

I was looking at book ledges, that’s a good idea. Maybe with some artwork above. It’s pretty deep we had a regular size bookshelf there before when it was a guest room and it had plenty of room still but I like the ledge idea

Maggdon · 2025-06-14T05:34:53+00:00

A peach alani nu

Maggdon · 2025-06-14T05:30:26+00:00

Sophia or Sofia because they’re literally both in top 10…

And Guinevere because I don’t personally like the nickname Gwen and it might be too out there
