  1. Night Shift off Nights

    oh night shift! I feel your pain, I ALWAYS wake up around 230 and couldn't really tell you why. I have found that if I go to the gym for about an hour around 630PM and force myself to stay up until 10PM, I can manage to stay asleep untill 5 or 6. The...
  2. I am an OB Nurse :)

    Not sure where it is that you work but where I am L&D (my spot), nursery, and PP aren't "fluff". I don't see how a 29 weeker found unresponsive after having an eclampic seizure and now a brain bleed is laid back. I guess it has to do with your fa...

    Thank you TraumaRUs!
  4. What info should nurses let a PCT/CNA be aware of?

    It isn't like you are going up to non medical person or family member and disclosing that they have some form of contagious illness. PCTs are also drawing labs in some places. These people come in contact with bodily fluids. If it was about protectin...
  5. What info should nurses let a PCT/CNA be aware of?

    Personally, if I am dealing with someone's blood (finger stick) I would like to know if they have a bloodborne illness. I would wear gloves either way and would not (and never have) treated the patient any different. I have however double gloved just...
  6. Advice on furthering education

    Your post is making me re-evaluate why I got offended in the first place. It isn't so much that I got an opinion that I disagreed with it was more so that I was expecting facts. & to the bolded, us nurses definitely do have the strongest opinions...
  7. A bill to protect nurse whistleblowers signed into law by Gov. Perry

    Agreed
  8. Recently Certified as a PCT in NYC

    I think it varies from state to state and even from hospital to hospital. I worked at a hospital as a nurse tech a few years back and we were allowed to start IVs and draw labs but at the hospital where I currently work, nurse techs are not allowed t...
  9. Advice on furthering education

    I understand that there are varying opinions. I posted here to get facts about programs not to hear opinions about why I shouldn't go for it. The question about experience was pertaining to NP programs. I've heard that many require at least 2 years c...
  10. "Nurses Are So Mean"

    Oh man! I truly HATE those posts by people about how "the older nurses are so mean to me because of my youth and how pretty I am"!!! No, the older nurses are mean to you because you constantly walk around talking about how pretty you THINK you are :)
  11. Why did you join allnurses??

    Had my ADN and was in school to get my BSN when I was sitting in lecture and saw a student in front of me on allnurses.com. Decided to look into it and here I am :)
  12. Advice on furthering education

    I went back and edited my original because it read as though I thought 2 years was a lot of experience. The bolded is exactly why your post was offensive. With 2 years, I REALIZE that I am very new especially since I will be at this job for at least ...
  13. Advice on furthering education

    Thanks RNewbie! & GAVagabond RN, My intention is to go back to school in a year or 2 and go part time (University of Oklahoma has a 3 year part time program in Tulsa for a FNP if I change my mind to do that) while working full time. So, that'd e...
  14. Any study tips for an upcoming 2012 nursing student?

    JenniferWilson74 nailed it well! My BSN program spent a lot on the heart so A&P of the heart and circulatory system is a big one.
  15. Advice on furthering education

    Hello all! I wasn't sure where to post my questions so I apologize in advance if this isn't the right place! :) I am currently a Labor and Delivery nurse in Oklahoma. I have recently been thinking about how I can further myself. I have always been th...
