  3. Nurse to Patient Ratio in a SNF

    I agree with goldenmom. Always cover yourself. I worked prn in a SNF and we the nurses had 20 pts a piece. When we started having frequent call outs, we started making copies of the assignment and passing it up to the DON and administration in writin...
  4. Does anyone else plan to stay in bedside?

    I can relate to you because working 12's going up and down long hallways with no sort of cushion on the floors do take a toll on your feet no matter how fit one is. I am addicted to running and do a bunch of workouts so fitness was not a factor. What...
  5. Education - What's next?

    Give yourself more credit being a military nurse and what you've accomplished so far- this is something I downplay a great deal. Like the plan you made to move forward with your education. You can become certified in your area. You can write articles...

  10. Switching careers and interested in psychiatric NP

    For Georgia, the salary is within the VA hospital not on the outside in clinics or pvt places. There are very few positions on the outside but you can go to any state with the VA hospitals. With the state of affordable healthcare, the shortage of ph...

    Well stated! I loved # 7 I found out I am not an auditory learner too. You got exhausted at question 75 and I had narcolepsy (even my brain was protesting) -smile I didn't take any breaks but I will next time. It makes all the difference because it g...

    Don't look at it as a setback. Look at it as a tough practice exam. You can do it. You studied and worked hard so congratulate yourself on getting over another hurdle. Next time you will clear it.. Back to the drawing board in the meantime while the ...
