The boys are back

And they're telling stories at Serenity Now Hospital again. Yippee!

Glad to have you back! Enjoying the snark coming out of the ED again. Not sure if the stripper story or the citrus one are more clearly Captain Obvious cases or not.

Go see for yourselves. More to come...

Nuggets for June 15

Happy June 15! Since I haven't done a Nuggets section in ages, I thought, why not? I've been reading some really interesting medical stuff for my grad class, and lo and behold, some of my favorite MD bloggers have interesting posts that should be seen.

So here goes, folks. Please enjoy the scenery. There is some very vivid mental imagery here if you really think about these items...just sayin'

Enjoy!



So you have been living in this century for how long now?
ER Doc from Serenity Now Hospital has a great post about a really out there patient who is still figuring out how to use the telephone. 

The epitome of tact or Why you should turn off the cellphone in the ICU
Grumpy, one great neurologist (and no, I don't work for him...he's nicer than our boss) has a public service announcement you'd think was obvious.

Never assume...

Last but not least

KevinMD has a couple of posts you shouldn't miss.

Medicine or family first discusses a series of articles running in the NY Times debating if part-time physicians should exist.

And now, since it's bikini season, he discusses a hairy (literally) topic which can have some significant complications.


Stay tuned....more to come.

Oh! My! Saturday!

It's run, run, run as fast as you can here at the RehabRN household...for me anyway. Getting ready for a couple of gatherings that should be fun.

And speaking of fun, I have to hand it to ER Doc at Serenity Now Hospital...you made my day. I loved the Good Ole Mom post item #3.

But frankly, I was hoping for an oddball Milk of Magnesia story...off I go.

More to come...stay tuned.

Nuggets for April 21

Oh yes, it's Nugget time again. Here's a few items I've found in my recent meanderings on the internet and visiting various blogs. Hope you enjoy!

From the blogosphere

Check out these treats from far and near in the blogosphere.

The office
So many things to talk about...and sometimes there are things you'd just rather not know about your coworkers. Bowel habits, shaving preferences, reasons why they divorced xx spouse and the list could go on and on. This Yahoo!Finance article called Spare the Details is just the ticket. That boss in a Speedo image makes me thankful one of my bosses is not my Facebook friend.

School
It's a classic you'll hear about again in a few weeks, but I've loved this column since it came out. From the archives of the Chicago Tribune, just remember to wear sunscreen.

Brain training
Yes, I've bought those brain training games and used them to no avail. They're cool at first, but end up boring. Check out this article from www.forbes.com called Becoming a Memory Whiz for a few tips on sharpening your memory.

An eye-opener
Many RNs already know about the contentious nature of the DNP credential in healthcare. My good friends from Ye Olde State Nurses' Association hooked me up with this interesting article written by an actual MD, Dr. Bernadine Healy, called The New Doctors in the House.

Did you know
Robert Pound, the physicist behind everyone's favorite noisy and claustrophobia-inducing diagnostic machine, the MRI passed away recently. As it turns out, Mr. Pound was a great British car buff. I really enjoyed the last line of his obit.

"Others recall that when confronted with a mechanical problem in a laboratory setting, he often gave the same advice as he would in the garage: “Did you try whacking it?” "
