Flaming/Flame Wars
Flaming is reacting to someone's board posting or PM in a hostile manner by publicly chastising the person or bombarding the person with nasty posts or PM's. Flaming may occur to users that engage in behavior that violates what is considered proper board netiquette. A flame war occurs when two or more users flame each other in an escalating manner that threatens to continue unabated. If you notice a flame war developing just notify the moderator or adminitrator and let them handle it. Do not take part in flame wars. If you do you will be banned even if you did not start it :-)
I haven't started any nursing position yet, but yes, I have heard all these horror stories and more like I originally posted. It is a scary thought of how easy these drugs can be obtained through medical personal. I have a friend right now that just lost her baby b/c she was a Home Health RN and was stealing her hospice patients pain meds for herself and then got addicted and her baby died. No one had a clue she was even addicted. I'm getting ready to start a PT home health position myself and the thought someone could steal from another person knowing they are lying in bed in pain is just sickening to me. I have had many a night in my own bed in pain not even with something like cancer and thats why I went the OP route and I couldnt imagine doing that to another person dying or not. And now she has killed her own child and sacrificed her whole career. Too sad.
