   DaisyRN replied to nursingworldwhy's topic in General Nursing

   Sounds like me when I first started nurses 5 years ago….and sadly, I still feel this way. I’ve had several nursing jobs/units and am never content. Almost every time I clock in I think about how much I loathe nursing. I actually start getting depress...

3. Pushed by quacks, use of Ivermectin is poisoning people

   DaisyRN replied to nursej22's topic in COVID

   Actually Ivermectin is a FDA approved medication. Using it for COVID would be an off label use as are many other medications. I wouldn’t recommend someone get it from Tractor Supply as they would likely not know the correct dose or what else migh...

   DaisyRN replied to DaisyRN's topic in Career Support

   This is very true, the money carrot was dangled in front of me for both the on call in hospice and night shift in hospital. Neither of which were worth the physical and mental stress both put on me. Hind sight is always 20/20! But now i do know they ...

8. Why? Why is it so hard to find a job I like?

   DaisyRN replied to DaisyRN's topic in Career Support

   Thank you all! I do find that home health is a little boring to me, 75% of visits are vitals and then "educating" patients. To some degree, i like that but not to that extent. I really liked the skills that did in the hospital and the times when th...

9. Why? Why is it so hard to find a job I like?
