1. Dear Vocera

   dannibee replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in General Nursing

   I think of Vocera as a source of amusement. I think it's hilarious when you ask it to log in someone and it says it's logging in someone with a completely different name! I look at it as a way to break up the seriousness that comes with our very busy...

2. Compression stockings

   dannibee replied to jistravel's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I use Nurse Mates compression socks that are 15-20mm/Hg. I like that they make my legs feel good after working long 12 hour shifts. They are around $13 a pair at Uniform Advantage. I see the Therafirm stockings on Amazon for around $16. Maybe I'll ch...

5. Student Loans

   dannibee replied to velocity2325's topic in General Nursing

   Kudos to the OP for being so financially conscientious! It's a good idea to start looking at these things early. I have about 40K worth of student loan debt right now that I used to get my BS in Health Science and my ADN. My parents couldn't afford t...

7. VA Palo Alto New Grad Program

   dannibee replied to yestar27's topic in New Nurse

   I was going to apply for that one but it's too far of a commute for me. I live in Sac. Good luck to you though. :)

8. Another nurse bites the dust due to facebook

   dannibee replied to siringe's topic in Headlines

   HIPPA is no joke. She should have known better. I don't post anything about my job on Facebook. Tough lesson for her.

9. Can NG Nurses take other hospital jobs (Hosp Assit, Unit Secretary)?

   dannibee replied to 5ftRN's topic in New Nurse

   It couldn't hurt to try. A couple of my classmates have tried to find jobs as non-licensed personnel to get their foot in the door at a hospital but have been turned down because they have an RN license. Good luck with your job search. :)

10. Looking in Sac area

    dannibee replied to nurserach's topic in New Nurse

    Good luck. The market is extremely saturated right now with new nurses. I'm a new grad that just graduated in May of this year. I've worked at a well known hospital system in the Sacramento area for the past 4 years but I haven't been placed into an ...

12. New Grads We Have Hit A New Low...Work For FREE

    dannibee replied to SparkleRN's topic in New Nurse

    It doesn't matter if I consider it experience but it does matter if HR does. I am fortunate to be working right now in an eICU as a secretary and I still get to see a lot and learn a lot while I'm waiting for an RN position. I actually get to use my ...

    Congratulations to you!!!!

14. New Grads We Have Hit A New Low...Work For FREE

    dannibee replied to SparkleRN's topic in New Nurse

    If this works for you then do it! Most of us who went to nursing school and graduated did NOT go to school to end up volunteering afterwards. I don't know about you but I put a lot of hard work into getting my license and for this company to even sug...

    I have a 4.5 year old and a 17 month old and they keep me busy but I'm still bored. Hmm...
