I am doing some work determining hospice coverage and I've run into a situation that I am unsure of. Hospice is not one of my specialties and I could use some input. So here is a brief situation: A patient is placed on hospice for end stage cardiac...
I was told all through nursing school that every good nurse should have atleast one year of medical surgical nursing under their belt before starting into a specialty. The issue I run into now is that because the jobs are slim and almost every new g...

I am sorry but unless this was a military hospital you were jipped. I did not have anywhere near the experience you had (as far as sleep deprivation) I chose to breastfeed all three of my sons, but I still opted to have them go to the nursery at nig...
Okay so I am still a student and nowhere near ready to go for my N-Clex, but I agree with everyone else here as well. Do not give up. I do however think it is a great idea for you to move from retail to healthcare while you are preparing for your n...
Hi there. I am a nursing student in Utah rather then a practicing nurse, but I can give you some reassurances in regards to moving to Utah as a new graduate nurse. There are several large healthcare employers in Utah that offer New graduate opportu...
Goodness gracious! I hope I didnt offend anyone. I am absolutely pleased with the kind words of advice and encouragement. Everyone is so great. Even when the advice doesnt fit my situation. I am entirely grateful. Thanks to everyone.
