2. It's Does No Good To Gripe About Nursing

   PrincessElleRN replied to EGspirit's topic in Relations

   Sometimes I forget that AllNurses is different than the rest of the internet. A lot of you guys are just regular, working people and don't spend hours and hours on the dark web and deep in facebook debates late at night, and therefore don't recognize...

3. Possibly moving to Charlotte, NC

   PrincessElleRN replied to nursn4me's topic in North Carolina

   If you're willing to come to Salisbury (about 30-40 minutes depending on what part of Charlotte you are in), you can get hired as a new grad at Novant Health Rowan Medical Center on one of their medical-surgical floors.

4. Medication error

   PrincessElleRN replied to Jsebastian0114's topic in Medications

   On my floor (medical-surgical) it is required that all patients have IV access and that it is rotated when expired unless there is a doctor order in the chart to leave it out.

5. What good does a BA in anything do for nursing

6. To the Nurse held Hostage yesterday

   PrincessElleRN replied to YoutubeTheNP's topic in General Nursing

   I can't even imagine. We treat prisoners all the time and if any of them ever had a chance to make a break for it, they would take it. God bless those nurses and I hope they can heal peacefully from this horrifying incident.

7. Would you be content if you worked your current job/specialty for the rest of your career?

   PrincessElleRN replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

   I currently work on an understaffed medical-surgical unit that is bleeding nurses and CNAs and we constantly work with unsafe ratios, safety cases but no sitters for them, and patients who are truly not appropriate or too critical for a medical-surgi...

8. Bullies

   PrincessElleRN replied to dream'n's topic in School

   This was so much further than bullying, this was assault. How heartbreaking! :'(

11. 2nd Re-take of the NCLEX-RN :)

    PrincessElleRN replied to efmp1987's topic in NCLEX

    I spent $0 on my study material. I spent like 2-3 weeks of "hardcore studying". This consisted of me lounging at the pool and doing questions on my 2 apps on my phone, Kaplan and ATI, and rereading through all my unit test and final test study guides...

14. so... i assisted in a code today... BUT

    PrincessElleRN replied to sickonXmas's topic in Relations

    Like everyone above has said, communication could have completely changed the outcome here, assuming the patient's family wasn't just cruel and psychotic. I usually use humor and it almost always works with calming my patients down. I would have came...

15. Never thought it would be this bad

    PrincessElleRN replied to ajacks65's topic in General Nursing

    You will probably feel a lot more at ease if you switch to working full time on a post surgical or med/surg floor for now. I would be lost if I didn't have time during my orientation to learn where things are on the unit, how to work the phones and c...
