4. I don't like nursing anymore. What should I do?

   kicker0927 posted a topic in General Nursing

   So the title pretty much sums it up. I have been an RN for about 8 years now and I am currently finishing my BSN only because it's the easiest bachelor's degree I can get without being stuck taking 50 general ed classes. I can't find any jobs in nu...

6. Anyone catch HIV from patients as a Nurse or Nursing student? My biggest fear!

   kicker0927 replied to FutureLPNNursing's topic in Safety

   Its really not that scary. Settle down. I have worked as a nurse in for the prisons for years and I have treated hundreds of staff who have had used syringes puncture through their gloves into their hand while searching cells. I have walked into c...

7. Nursing is the Biggest Mistake of My Life

   kicker0927 replied to almost_nurse's topic in General Nursing

   Try looking outside the box. By the time I was done with the NCLEX, I quickly realized I was not a bedside nurse. Since then I haven't worked in a single hospital, nursing home, etc. There are many different areas to look into such as occupational...

8. Commuting an hour to work

   kicker0927 replied to MiaLyse's topic in General Nursing

   I look at it like this...if you lived in a big city the average commute is like 45 minutes to an hour due to bumper-to-bumper traffic. I've driven over an hour to and from work for the last 7 years. Then on my days off I drive 2.5 hours to the lake...

   kicker0927 posted a topic in General Nursing

   Hello, I am planning a move to Florida in a couple years and I have two questions for any southwest Florida nurses out there. 1. I am planning to move somewhere in between Fort Myers and the Keys along the Gulf Coast. That is the only area I wish...

10. Doctor stole my stethoscope

    kicker0927 replied to ayejay09's topic in Relations

    If you know for a fact the doctor took it, next time you see them just ask him if he still has it. If you don't see him often, go to your supervisor or HR and ask them to help you contact him to retrieve it. Or you can always request the hospital p...

11. Tattoos?

    kicker0927 replied to heronurse's topic in Professionalism

    Get tatted. I have both arms sleeved up and I haven't had a job yet that made me cover them. However, I do cover them at my current job just because for some reason it seems appropriate to. However, I really don't have to. If you do get a sleeve ...

12. Question about Cussing on the job.

    kicker0927 replied to Roda dendron's topic in Professionalism

    I cuss all the time at work. I can't say I've cussed out a CNA, but I work at the prison...so it's all good. Just apologize to the person and move on. If you get in trouble, so what. If they fire you for that, I wouldn't want to work for them any...
