Sorry about your lack of sleep, until yesterday I hadn't for a few days myself aside from a few toss and turn nights. Both of my kids have the flu, plus my mom had a light heart attack saturday. With her being my only living parent left I have been so stressed about it.
Anyways... If I could share my drugs I would, luckily I get to see a psych (have since my dad passed over 17 years ago) and well I have some aid in sleeping when needed.. I broke down and took it yesterday.

I know how gossip at the hospital is, I am a Resp Therapist, luckily I take shifts where I work as the only one in the hospital (small country hospitals get by with that) so I don't have to deal w/ gossip parties. Then the ones I do work with are guys that have buddied up w/ my husband so its always talking about sports, etc....

Get some sleep..... you need it...

I can relate to that feeling tazmiche. We have certain nursing crews that like to gossip, too. We get enough patients in our ED to keep busy though. What exactly is a transfer nurse - is that like escorting or transporting patients from one unit to another or to x-ray, etc. or am I way off?

NT14, yes, transfer nurses take ward transfers, x-ray etc and discharged that would be unsafe with a porter. If you ask me if they are unsafe with a porter they should NOT be moved!!!

Steveang, i hate the hosp gossip!! it is sad small minded and pathetic!!

We have a few different ways of moving patients from our ED. An RN (ICU admits), a Paramedic (everyone but ICU), LNA (licensed nurses aide - no ICU, no ECG monitors), and volunteers (? "porters" - stable pts. in wheelchairs).

See, this is the kind of thing is the reason that the freakin' medical system has to be overhauled. The nurses, doctors, and others who directly interact with the patients are the ones who should be making the majority of the decisions (the nurses more than others, unless it's only around here that the doctors have their heads...well...you know what I mean).
Too bad about sleep, but at least you've got horses and fish.

Yeah, those late night talks with the animals around poker, Glen Livet, and cigars sure help one keep one's grip on reality.

I sooooo know the feeling. When you have nothing in common with your colleagues... I actually have my lunch on my computer at the moment. The worst thing is that they like me. They're always asking me to come and join them, but when I do, they talk about good deals, soccer, politics, cars, frequent flyer programmes and house prices. They're really obsessed with being seen as competitive bargain-strikers in every area of their life. Yawn.

A growth spur!!! Sounds interesting, LOL.
