  1. NICU nursing vs postpartum

    I went from mother/baby to NICU and I'm so glad I did. I LOVED being a mother/baby nurse and I do miss parts of it, but I really like the NICU. I like taking care of sick babies and seeing them improve, grow, and go home. I also like getting to kn...

  3. Survey about med administration for a class

    Thanks to everyone who has done the survey or tried to do it. I really appreciate it!! I work the next three days so I'm going to leave it open until my next day off in case anyone else happens upon the thread.
  4. Survey about med administration for a class

    Thanks anyway! That must be nice!!! Some of our floors are going to CPOE but we aren't there yet We have electronic charting for the nurses and our secretary enters orders (for labs, supplies, etc) that the doctor orders, but for medications - th...
  5. Survey about med administration for a class

    That's very interesting and definitely a different set of circumstances! Thanks for sharing. I've never worked in an OR so I never really thought about that. It amazes me how in one profession (like nursing) things can vary so much - that's one th...

    Thank you!
  7. Survey about med administration for a class

    We also do barcode scanning, but I still have to ask my patient's name and DOB (they might have the wrong band on). Out of curiosity, you don't chart the meds after you give them? I've only ever worked at one hospital so I only know our system - we ...

  9. Survey about med administration for a class

    I agree - I added that so it will be there for anyone else who completes the survey. :-) Thank you for the suggestions :-)
  10. Survey about med administration for a class

    I thought about that but we should all be following the same rules like checking patient ID, etc. I'm more concerned about what nurses in general are doing, as opposed to their title like RN, etc. At least that was my thinking. Thanks for the sugg...

    Thank you!!
  14. I'm working on a project for my RN-BSN class about medication administration safety. I've created a short survey (6 questions) and would love if some of you wouldn't mind responding. It's completely anonymous and I would really appreciate some resp...
  15. Best area near Lewis McChord

    I'm really interested in Olympia, but I wondered about it being hard to get a job there. Can anyone offer insight into what hospitals pay around there? You can PM me if you want want to post on here. The cost of living is a lot higher there, than ...
