Dec 5 '17From Hygiene Queen In What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story? →Quote from Hygiene QueenOh on that note I will share my dementia pt story. My resident was up wandering on 2nd shift and started trying to go out to the courtyard. I was working on redirecting her when she starting talking about this man, who was crawling on the ground on all fours and coming straight towards the screen door we were standing at!! She was really freaked out by this invisible man and it gave me the heebie jeebies so bad I had a huge chill run through my body. I can't imagine how frightening it must be for the dementia pt, who really truely is seeing all this stuff!!

Sep 11 '17From sergel02 In New Grad, don't want to work in hospital →Quote from ladybuglouRNWhen I graduated it was pretty hard to get into the hospitals so I was applying elsewhere. I ended up landing a job as a new grad in Home Health. I work M-F 8-4 with a weekend admission every so often and we don't work holidays. My hours are very flexible and I am home with my family every night. I do fear that going into a HHA has more than likely prevented me from ever working in the hospital. But I love the pace of where I work. I can take the time with my pts and I cannot see myself working in a hospital environment. I think I was one of the lucky ones who found my niche in nursing right away, and also found a boss who was willing to take on a new grad. Best of luck to you. It IS possible to not work in the hospital!!
