   NewYorkCityRN replied to k_cole21's topic in General Nursing

   I was in college getting ready for one of my Psych classes. I am from NY and a girl I would walk to class with grew up not too far from me. She came running to my room, grabbed my arm, and pulled me into the common lounge so we could watch and not wa...

2. Discrimination?

   NewYorkCityRN replied to H60Medic's topic in Men

   It can and cannot be discrimination. There are certain jobs where the HR department can hire based on sex. I have a BS in HR Management and this stuff has become second nature. For example, a female only gym. It is not discrimination to hire only wom...

    NewYorkCityRN replied to SkateBetty's topic in General Nursing

    Victoria's Secret also has an awesome hand cream. I LIVE by it. My hands have never looked better! It comes in a blue tube. There is an exfoliator and hand cream. The smell is suttle, but pretty. Body Shop' body butter is also great. It dries fast an...

11. Need a quick answer

    NewYorkCityRN replied to catlady's topic in General Nursing

    NewYorkCityRN replied to jellie22's topic in Travel

    From my experience, most of the hospitals ask for at least a year and a half to two years experience for ICU. I get my ICU assignments from Access Nursing Services. They are constantly getting Med Surg and ICU opportunities. They have a website, so c...

15. Opinons needed

    NewYorkCityRN replied to cookielady,rn's topic in New York

    You'll be fine in Harlem. It's just like anywhere else in the world...you have to be smart about walking alone and being out at night. You'll be in a crowded area up there by the hospital, so that should make you feel a little better. NYC is fast pac...
