1. GN to NP in <1yr

   SL2014 replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

   I disagree with your perspective. Perhaps, for this nurse it is not time to be an NP, but that is not true of all new graduate nurses. The RN role and the NP role are COMPLETELY different. Being an RN on the floor for a few years is probably helpful ...

2. Interdisciplinary Bullying!

   SL2014 replied to jtydelskiRN's topic in Relations

   This happened to me when I was in ICU and when I was in LTC. The staff were literally running to the manager for anything and everything, sometimes blatantly lying, other times making a big deal out of nothing by distorting the truth. I didn't even t...

3. Night shift diff

   SL2014 replied to KWbeliever's topic in NP Students

   Most do offer a shift differential. I agree with the first person who responded. State that you wanted to work nights because you need a shift differential and if they do not offer it you would like to go back to days.

4. what is a scientific process of nursing?

   SL2014 replied to Sivuyile Deyi's topic in Student Assist

   Look in your text book or Google "nursing scientific process". We are here to clarify and point you in the right direction, not do your homework for you :)

5. What are thoughts on Simplenursing.com ?

   SL2014 replied to lallybroch's topic in General Students

   I've never heard of this until you posted this.

6. Jobs in school, success on NCLEX

   SL2014 replied to Rnotyetanurse's topic in General Students

   I'm not sure how much being a Pharm Tech will help you with nursing. Being a CNA will help you tremendously.

7. Does Preferring to Work Night Shift mean you're lazy?

   SL2014 replied to Soliloquy's topic in Relations

   Work smarter not harder. Get paid more to do less? Why NOT?

8. How Would You Report This Illegal Work Situation??

   SL2014 replied to All4NursingRN's topic in Relations

   You posted a thread asking for people's opinion. That is what you received- a lot of other peoples' opinions... Since a majority of the opinions seems to disagree with yours, instead of telling people to pass over a thread that you posted: perhaps re...

9. How Would You Report This Illegal Work Situation??

   SL2014 replied to All4NursingRN's topic in Relations

   And I cannot agree more with the people who have already said: DO NOT report her to the BON. She hasn't done anything blatantly illegal, harmful, malicious or wrong. If she ends up getting investigated for the issue that you are saying, the investiga...

10. How Would You Report This Illegal Work Situation??

    SL2014 replied to All4NursingRN's topic in Relations

    My response might get flagged but... It kinda seems like you are just "hating" on this person for whatever reason... I hear an undertone of jealousy and/or intimidation in your post. She might just carry herself confidently, giving others the impre...

11. Are you satisfied?

    SL2014 replied to SL2014's topic in Advanced

    There are tons of forums on allnurses.com that request salaries, if people are uncomfortable posting salary then they don't have to respond :). It is because a bunch of us students were wondering how many NPs work in the field that they are certifie...

12. Are you satisfied?

    SL2014 posted a topic in Advanced

    Hello All! I would like to get perform a survey including NP salary, certification, area of work and job satisfaction. There are other threads from 2009 addressing salary, none addressing satisfaction. Your input is greatly appreciated. Please answe...

13. Sigma Theta Tau

    SL2014 replied to mmcc01's topic in General Students

    Yes it is equally competitive here also. When I got the membership I was thinking "I need more stuff to put on my résumé" because as a new grad your résumé looks like everyone else's. It still took 300 apps to get a job but the two times I was interv...

14. Sigma Theta Tau

    SL2014 replied to mmcc01's topic in General Students

    I am/was a Sigma Theta Tau member. My GPA was 3.75, I was #2 in my cohort of 55 nursing students the girl above me had a 3.76. Yes, that's right, no one in my cohort got Summa Cum Laude lol. Just my experience but- it was a waste of my money at this ...

15. Aggressive patients?

    SL2014 replied to NanikRN's topic in Relations

    We get a little gray triangle thing on the top of the EMR, which indicated past violent behavior with medical staff. Honestly though its not a huge help. VERY rarely will a person just be chilling in their room then freak out and punch someone for no...
