  1. Moving to San Antonio

    I really appreciate you taking the time to comment. I've had a couple of offers but it's clear now which I'm going to with. I'll be paying it forward on this forum. Thanks again!
  2. Moving to San Antonio

    Hello! I was hoping some nurses in SA could offer some advice in terms of pay. I recently accepted a job for $27 with $3-4 diff on nights. I've been a nurse for around 3 years now and I figured that was on the low side of pay. I currently make $...
  3. Feeling disrespected and unsupported :(

    I like this guy, let's give him a promotion.
  4. Demand for Psych/Mental Health RNs

    SF is known for its high cost of living so those salaries are justified.
  5. New grad

    Looks like you're well prepared. I would pay attention to "what would you do if..." questions, those always seemed to be in all my interviews. I would also ask questions if given the opportunity at the end. How does the unit support new grads? This s...

  8. A safe nurse to pt ratio?

    Let me google that for you
  9. Canadian Nurses Working in US

    Were you able to get it all sorted out? I'm looking at the process too and it seems very confusing. Let us know how it goes.
  10. Psychiatric NPs in Canada?

    Look into Brandon University Master of Psychiatric Nursing | Brandon University
  11. Nurse patient ratio

    4:1 sometimes 5:1 I hope DistrictNurse is well compensated for taking on 12-17 patients.
  12. Why not try to get into immediate care nursery?. I found cultural issues less of a problem there.
  13. Had a great day on my shift.. or so I thought

    Don't take it personally we've all had our share of bipolar and micromanaging unit managers. Just look for a new job asap and you can leave this one off your resume as you weren't there for very long anyway.
  14. Canadian RN looking to move to the US

    I found the same thing, they all require 1 yr+ so get that out of the way. There is demand you just have to be proactive.
  15. Get Over Yourself

    I don't understand what the issue is? If they think they deserve a raise it's fully reasonable to ask for one.
