I couldn't imagine one, that's why I asked. :) I would really like to offer a fun, more imaginative suggestion to work through this required competency this year. I thought asking 969,000 nursing professionals might lead to something.
Well done! You have the makings of an excellent nurse, keep it up! You are in NO danger of losing a license you have not obtained yet. NO CHANCE! Don't you sweat that. This situation was a mess and you did the right thing. I would have liked the doc ...
Have you ever had training/competency on a Mechanical lift that was fun? Every year, its the same old thing. Lie down, roll over and up you go! **I'd like to offer management a fun alternative to this yearly required competency. Have you ever partici...
My mother recently had an ablation and wants to send her nurses a gift. What did you enjoy receiving the most? What limitations are there? I think it cannot be expensive and no fresh flowers...am I right? Thanks for your help.
I have a friend in her 80's that I have known since I was an infant. I am sure at one point she changed my diapers and now it is my turn to return the favor. She is in renal failure and liver failure. She has been given an expiration of 2 weeks about...

Thanks everyone for the comments. I was asked to write a response to the issue, which I did. I can appreciate the administering the PRN one at a time to figure out which worked, I guess I was coming from the standpoint (in the moment) that sometimes...
If you look on Monster or any Job search website you can search 'Baylor'. They are few and far between but the pay is FANTASTIC! You do work three 12 hour shifts, every weekend, you LIFE may not be fantastic but your check will be.
As we have no travelers, 1.) Per Diem 2.) Scheduled Full-time rotation If there is a per diem nurse available there should not be a need for you to float. I'm per diem, thats why, gimme something different!
