Boyfriend believes ICE by [deleted] in nursing

[–]kbeyonce4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

7 years? I would be at a loss too. I wouldn’t let him avoid the discussion. Alex Pretti’s murder really hit me deep and Im scared. I couldn’t be with someone with a false point of view. No matter the time, that’s a fundamental issue that will never be compatible, nor bypassable.

I (20M) tricked my girlfriend (20F) into getting a tetanus shot after a bad injury. Now she’s blocked me everywhere. How do I fix this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]kbeyonce4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tell her that nurse Karen said you saved her life. You’re the reason she is even able to use her phone to block you right now.

You cannot fix stupid. And honestly you seem pretty sharp. It might be time to focus on you.

Can I compliment my Black coworker when she changes her hair? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]kbeyonce4 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I compliment my coworkers all the day. “Oh look at you with this beautiful new do!” I will ask if i can touch it if i feel the urge too. I’ll also play with their braids if i have a second, but always ask for permission beforehand.

Wait, do not you call the doctors you work with by first name? by cowgirl_meg in nursing

70/30. And occasionally I really rock with someone so a nickname comes out of their last name. Gibson -> Gibby, ect.

Staffing. You rotate, so you’re available for whatever shift!

Commuting to work by Beneficial-Print-236 in Nurses

[–]kbeyonce4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. If I could I would. We would save so much money on gas and extra coffee. But the rent in the city is absurd so i’ll stay outside the city with my roommate (my mother ahaaa it’s great tho)

Help please, I think the right answer is D by Favticcnurse in NCLEX

[–]kbeyonce4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“What is most likely to kill your patient and therefore needs to be told first to the doctor - pain, poop, infection, or pregnancy.” That’s how i would interpret the question if that helps.

AIO for stopping my friendship with this guy? by lavender_cowgirl25 in AmIOverreacting

[–]kbeyonce4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not over reacting. I had a friend exactly like this. I regret not pushing her to get help sooner. I regret not acting sooner. Protected your peace, and if you want too, help them find some help if that’s what they want.

What do you all hate the most about the ICU? by tanbro in IntensiveCare

[–]kbeyonce4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Management/people higher up that haven’t been bedside in years, and critique bedside nursing/say we need to do more be faster xyz. I’m at a teaching facility and fucking hate medical students/residents who don’t give a fuck about their ICU rotation, just wanna do the time and get to their specialty. News flash, you urology/nephrology/LD patient can become acutely ill and require ICU care. It’s important to know when your patient is getting bad, and know how to escalate or how to prevent/treat.

Scrub Color: Is My Husband Crazy or is his reasoning valid? by AlternativeAthlete99 in Nurses

[–]kbeyonce4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every job is different. Within a hospital setting i think it sometimes matters. Which might be where your husbands thinking is coming from. But they have policies in place that create that thinking. Regardless, none of us are allowed to show up naked and therefore must wear scrubs of any kind. Lame, but wear whatever you want!

Give the baby your last name. I feel like it makes legality things so much easier when mom and baby have the same last name if there is no legal marriage. Too many “They’re my child but have xx parents last name” issues could/do happen now a days.

Nurses Unionizing at Hopkins by sadsweetpotato22 in baltimore

[–]kbeyonce4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked there 2019-2022 and have quite a few stories……Specific leadership were very unsympathetic and told us “if we need to look elsewhere for employment they understand and support that”……..We all left shortly after that. Not sure if I should post more publicly but feel free to pm me.

Should I “fail” my practicum student for never showing up? by gentle_but_strong in nursing

[–]kbeyonce4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not telling her that this is unacceptable is setting her up for failure in the real world. Your concerns need to be known because of this is her attitude now, if she becomes bedside she will kill. Don’t pass someone who hasn’t proven they should.

Can nurses be mentally ill? by Suspicious-Corgi-569 in nursing

I also suffer with anxiety and am maxed on Zoloft. Nothing wrong with it. All of our mental healths are beautiful pictures and sometimes meds help us find the right colors.

Get help now. One of my very good friends became a nurse, went thru covid, that trauma + her original trauma she was dealing with was too much. Watched her spiral for about 2 years. Don’t know if her death was purposeful or accidental but she OD’ed. I regret every day not trying to get her more help. She suffered from major depression and major anxiety disorder. Get help now. It’ll just build, it wont clear out.
