1. NM license renewal help!

   rosieseattle replied to karleon's topic in New Mexico

   I've had the same problem. I have had a New Mexico license for a long time and actually walked into the board of nursing, got a receipt for my renewal and was told that they only post online for renewals. No longer do they send you anything through...

2. First Night Duty in Labor Room

   rosieseattle replied to spdhaka80's topic in General Nursing

   Oh my gosh! You are an amazing young woman and you have done more than I have done in 25 years of nursing in America. God bless you and may you continue to help all of those mothers and babies in the years to come!

3. Montana RN Salary

   rosieseattle replied to INDY98's topic in Montana

   If you google around long enough, you will see the the CEO of Kalispell Hospital has a salary of almost half a million dollars a year. Does that answer your question? She makes more than most of the doctors. A lot of the admin that is on staff is ...

4. How would you handle this?

   rosieseattle replied to labbio's topic in General Nursing

   I would say, "I'll leave you alone, but I'd like to grab my lunch and try to find a place to sit down and eat.....space is tight and my lunchbreak time is ticking".

5. Looking for feedback- St. Clare's in Lakewood

   rosieseattle replied to JFRN's topic in Washington

   I worked in the ER at St. Clare's in 2004. I had a 12 week summer assignment there through an agency. It's a very busy ER with your normal stuff coming through. Of all the emergency rooms I've worked in my entire nursing career, I enjoyed this one...

6. pay rate hell..

   rosieseattle replied to ruthiebaby88's topic in Travel

   Not totally defending the travel agencies, but you need to understand that it would benefit you to learn the truth about the pay the way that the agencies explain it. First off, any time that you take a travel contract that is over 50 miles from you...

7. Boosting Morale in the ER

   rosieseattle replied to 1sttimetraveler's topic in Emergency

   How many years have you been an RN? You will find as you gain years of experience, what is valuable/not valuable for morale....especially in the ER. Sometimes the most qualified charge nurses do not set priorities for themselves, much less the rest...

   rosieseattle replied to Elizabeth Hanes's topic in General Nursing

9. Rules for the ER (long)

   rosieseattle replied to EDValerieRN's topic in Emergency

   You bet it's over. Take it from someone who has almost died twice in the ER, primarily by being blown off by the RN in the ER.

10. 7000 fatal med errors last year-where are theses nurses?

    rosieseattle replied to supportneeded's topic in General Nursing

    Julie, A mistake was made, there is not need for continued shame and guilt. Everything is going to work out with time. Be kind to yourself, forgive yourself and with each day that goes by, find something to be thankful for. Things could have been ...

11. Rules for the ER (long)

    rosieseattle replied to EDValerieRN's topic in Emergency

    I think perhaps we should also remember that if it were not for our patients, we wouldn't have a job. I also think that some of you might feel somewhat different if you ended up being the patient in the ER. Sometimes, it is only a "gut feeling" of ...

12. ACLS Class

    rosieseattle replied to nightingale's topic in New Mexico

    I got mine at ARMC (Albuquerque Regional Hospital) formerly St. Joe's. They hold classes frequently and are quick to get you in and out! Good luck.

13. A message to new grads: NEVER....

    rosieseattle replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    Go to work when you're ill and think that you'll be able to leave early if you get really sick. Never put your job before your faith/family. Never connect a contaminted IV tubing connector to the patient. Never think you're indespensible. Never take ...

14. Not feeling to good about a co-worker

    rosieseattle replied to susanna's topic in General Nursing

    If you have to work with her, and you have to keep your job, try saying this the next time she yells: "It does not matter who you think you are, but nothing warrants you verbally abusing me". Then, tell her to "stop it immediately". Say that over a...

15. Am I the only one to feel this way?

    rosieseattle replied to LadyMadonna's topic in General Nursing

    One thing you might learn first and foremost in nursing is that your value does not revolve around being overweight, unkept or with a child from a loser. That may be your circumstances at this time, but that is not WHO YOU ARE. Comparing yourself t...
