7. Texas Nurses push Legislature for changes , say patient ratios unsafe

   yurnurse replied to herring_RN's topic in Activism

   If I'm not mistaken, most states have laws that are based on acuity but the problem is that alot of times the acuity levels reported aren't always accurate so you may have 6 patients with a reported acuity of 5, when thats actually not the case. I u...

   yurnurse replied to futureRNJaz's topic in General Nursing

   I myself have been following Obamas health care plan and like others have said, he is not trying to change our healthcare system into a universal healthcare system like Canadas. His plan will ensure that those persons who are uninsured can now get i...

9. LPN to RN schools online???

   I didn't do the online course, I chose to go back to a classroom, but just today I was talking to a nurse who is doing an online program and just found out that she will not be able to work in illinois as an RN for 15 months after she completes the c...

10. Got in...Now what? Really Long

    yurnurse replied to Tifftazia's topic in LPN-RN

    Just a thought, but have you looked in your states scholarship programs. I am in chicago and I know illinois will pay for your school expenses as long as you are willing to work for them for a specified amount of time, usually 2 years. This can be ...

12. Insulin...When/ When not to give

    yurnurse replied to yurnurse's topic in General Nursing

    I did, it went up to 201 which called for 21 units of insulin and I offered to call the doctor but the supervisor insisted that it was getting to late so to just give it. I am in my 3rd semester of nursing school and I know the real world is differe...

13. Insulin...When/ When not to give

    yurnurse posted a topic in General Nursing

    I had an issue at work the other night that I just can't get over so I decided to ask you very knowledgable nurses. I had a diabetic resident who at dinner time started to have an upset stomach and was complaining of nausea. He refused to eat becaus...

14. LTCF quick med pass, plus all the other stuff

    yurnurse replied to destiny100's topic in General Nursing

    I work agency in an LTC facility and have done so for the last 4 years. I think as the other nurse said you just have to breathe and try not to allow yourself to get frustrated with everything. It is definately a challenge to pass meds to 30+ unkno...

15. Anybody work agency full time?

    yurnurse replied to Diary/Dairy's topic in Agency

    Also you may want to try and see if they would be willing to offer you a contract. I only work agency, LTC, and have a contract for 4 shifts/wk minimum. It works out great.
