1. Best travel companies

   nerdicus replied to Smalltowngirl's topic in Travel

   I'd be curious to hear what Nightingale reputation is like as well... I keep getting email from them about options in Nevada and Nebraska - two places I'd hate to go, unless the pay was right.

2. War on talent about to begin in healthcare IT

   nerdicus replied to rninformatics's topic in Informatics

   Forgot to add one thing: I'm not sure on Computer Science, or Information Technology; I know the difference academically, but am not sure how it would play out in the real world. I know I don't want to be coding, but I do want to be designing/impleme...

3. War on talent about to begin in healthcare IT

   nerdicus replied to rninformatics's topic in Informatics

   Lost out on a 150k job? What is the pay range for these RN/IT jobs? While money is not the biggest factor in my career choice, it is a large one. I'm currently an RN, who was on the CRNA path, and am still considering it. I'm a new grad, coming up on...

   I'm assisting with an education fair, and we have a small display on improving the documentation involved with our 'codes' and need some short tips that other RNs have found useful - specifically in regards to documentation of the event. For example,...

5. Best countries to work as a nurse

   nerdicus replied to SandraP's topic in International

   I'll second the recession problem. I graduated last December and still have classmates that didn't get jobs (granted some were quite picky) - and our school was the preferred school locally. I had to move down to Florida for my job, and while it wasn...

9. what are the best mens scrubs you have found?

   nerdicus replied to Buckyxj's topic in Men

   I too must sway from the Aviators trend... I had a friend suggest them. And while they do last a LONG time, all I had to do was try them on to realize how hot they would be (I'm in Florida). And the fit is odd, if you notice on their website, all the...

10. New Hire at Pulmonary Progressive Unit

    nerdicus replied to Mary C's topic in Pulmonary

    Well I finished my interview, and asked many of the questions recommended here. Unfortunately it sounds more like a normal med/surg floor than it does a Pulmonary PCU. In fact the nurse manager even said, "It really should be a called multi-system PC...

11. New Hire at Pulmonary Progressive Unit

    nerdicus replied to Mary C's topic in Pulmonary

    I'm interviewing this week for a position in a Pulmonary PCU. Now that you've been there awhile are there questions you'd wished you asked during your interview? I'm reviewing my vent settings, and the other recommendations you made... Thanks
