   gj chriso---stop apologizing---your opinion and information is valid. It seems some students have a lot more to learn; no matter which school they attend.

3. Thoughts on Denver School of Nursing?

   deleteaccount replied to JettaDP's topic in Colorado

   You didn't offend me at all. Mainly because I don't let petty stuff get to me the way you did. But you do need to cool it a bit. Remember it isn't "your" school. And besides get used to opinions that are different than yours. Cut the other poster so...

5. Round of applause for nurses who dont tolerate negative behavior

   deleteaccount replied to jbp0529's topic in General Nursing

   Do you want to be " right" or employed? let it roll off your back. Why take on the system in your position. If you want to effect change you can always become someone in management and cause change at that level. Don't let their attitudes affect your...

7. Bordeline illegal interviewing process hospitals are getting away with n this economy

   deleteaccount replied to NEWGRADNURSE75's topic in General Nursing

   "what is the correct follow up process for interviews?" ask the recruiter and the nm how they want you to follow up. if they give you the standard--don't call us we'll call you line; ask for a business card (if they have email), send an email about a...

   deleteaccount replied to NEWGRADNURSE75's topic in General Nursing

   i'll probably get a lot of flak for this post, but here goes.... this is targeted to new grads and/or nurses entering a new area. the questions they ask about your life/family etc. are not wrong or illegal. nms often want to get a sense of who you ar...

9. CO Independent Contractors (IC), Business Owners, Consultants

   deleteaccount replied to innovativemurse's topic in Colorado

   Thanks for all you insight! Luckily I've been on the financial/business side of healthcare for about 4yrs and am ready to strike out on my own. I think I've found a little niche in the Denver/Boulder area and just trying to work the courage up to do ...

10. CO Independent Contractors (IC), Business Owners, Consultants

    deleteaccount replied to innovativemurse's topic in Colorado

    This is a great post, but how did you get started? Do you carry your own liability insurance? How do you market yourself? Are you working on a w-2 or a 1099? How did you base your fee structure? Are you doing "agency-type" contracts with SNFs or hos...

11. Accepting Gifts

    deleteaccount replied to feralnostalgia's topic in General Nursing

    It is against professional practice to EVER accept a gift from a patient. When in doubt---don't do it. Look up Stark laws.

12. job offer dilema

    deleteaccount replied to pedspnp's topic in General Nursing

    Since you knew you had these things coming up, you should have made them aware of it at interview time. I agree family comes first, however this is a situation were you may lose this job to another. When you accepted the job these are things you shou...

13. the "dream" has come to an end

    deleteaccount replied to summersent's topic in General Nursing

    I think this is a sign of the times. Too many people enter nursing because they "think" they'll like it. You are brave and wise for getting out of a field that you have no passion for. Nursing should be a calling not a job. Good luck to you!!

14. Teacher dont like me

    deleteaccount replied to Amybeth56's topic in Student Assist

    Use this as a lesson for life. You will ALWAYS run into people who don't like you. Who cares that she doesn't like you?? At this point it isn't about her, it's about how you handle it. If you need to communicate something with her, do it in a profess...

    deleteaccount replied to SunnyMargarita's topic in Colorado

    yes, i live and work in denver. i have to tell you the prospects aren't good right now, but don't make yourself a stalker type to the nm. the best bet and safest is to go to the nurse recruitment office and hand deliver your resume. if you've not wor...
