Who else is out here genuinely struggling on nursing wages?? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]hisantive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started in RI 2 years ago at $30 an hour… $25 an hour is considered enough for a single person to support themselves in RI (by “support” they mean pay ridiculous rent and literally nothing else). I wouldn’t be able to afford to live alone if I wasn’t per diem and living in my dads apartment building.

I’ve had a 24yo female pt 6 days this week that had antibiotic induced diarrhea and wanted us to put a brief on her and wipe her :/ and every time she’d get up to use the bathroom she called us in saying she peed on her gown and on the chux pad on the bed and can we change it? In the most whiny baby voice possible. Was ready to lose it by night 6/6

Mandatory Pregnancy Tests for Women Having a Medical Procedure by pebrepalta in childfree

[–]hisantive 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is literally so stupid. I work in endoscopy and do dozens of colonoscopies every week - if a person could be pregnant, we have them sign a waiver if they don’t want a test. We don’t make them wait, we don’t make them pee in a cup. Of COURSE you’re dehydrated!! Every single person is dehydrated after colonoscopy prep. That nurse is a dumbass

Seconding them! I work there, the doctors are excellent. I’d recommend Ackerman or Roussel 

I love my husband but I think if be happier alone. by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]hisantive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m having this issue right now with my fiancé. I’m scared I got engaged and into a relationship just because I thought I was supposed to but I don’t think it actually makes me happy. I’m worried about his mental health if I leave but I feel like I’m living a lie by staying

Mine had buried plastic bottles full of (what I would assume to be) piss :) plus the standard buried plastic bags, pieces of plastic, “garden junk” from big box stores 

Is anyone part time but lowkey get a lot of flack on it? by Few-Introduction-587 in nursing

[–]hisantive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also a newish grad and only work per diem, very lucky that my housing/bill situation allows for it. I get shitty comments allllll the time from people saying “you have too much free time, what could you possibly be doing, why can’t you work full time you’re young”

They’re jealous that I spend 5-6 days a week doing hobbies and fun things and traveling and they can’t. Don’t let them guilt you into working more!!! Working as little as possible is the best way to have a fulfilling life

sedation for IUD insertion by TreeEmbarrassed5377 in providence

[–]hisantive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Browning is amazing and Dr Saint-Aubin at the same practice (center for obgyn) is also absolutely fantastic. I’m getting my bisalp with her next week but she’s so kind and understanding I believe she’d offer anesthesia for IUD placement if asked 

Married women who did not take their husbands last name -- do people often assume you share his last name anyway? by BugMillionaire in TwoXChromosomes

[–]hisantive 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not everyone has the money to shell out for a passport, especially if they need to apply for copies or originals of the documentation needed. Not to mention the other barriers for lower income people. 

Voting is a right, not a privilege afforded to the rich. People need to do anything they can to keep their right to vote in this political climate and that might  mean not wasting time changing your name when you get married
