  2. Possible termination for HIPAA violations

    I'm sorry, I wish it all works out for you. Try to explain to your employer that it was a huge mistake that happened unknowingly. We are only human. I don't have much advise as I'm still a nursing student. Keep your thoughts postive.
  3. Possible termination for HIPAA violations

    In nursing school we are learning about so called "Hipaa police" that literally watch people in cafeteria/break rooms and snoop nurses etc. it's b/c hospitals do not want to pay big bucks for a Hipaa violation. It's 5,000$ per incident (each time u l...
  4. Bankruptcy and Jobs

    Hey hun don't stress over it, I know because I'm in the same boat. My husband is the only one that works and provides for the family. I had to quit my job after my son's premature birth and that lead to so much unpaid credit card bills. We are also i...

  8. Using a Littmann 3200 Electronic Stethoscope for nursing school?

    I think it would be beneficial for you to get a electronic stethoscope. Maybe try it out at medical pharmacies/shops before purchasing. My family doctor has the littmann electronic 3200 and he loves it. When I complemented him on it, he offered to ge...
  9. Using a Littmann 3200 Electronic Stethoscope for nursing school?

    Thanks, that's what I thought as well. I think a electronic one isn't needed for nursing 101. I'll keep that for after nursing school.
  10. Hmm, I would not quit this job yet, but first go out and find a well paying evening job that hires you full time, part time, or even on call job. Then when you are financially stable in the new job(have a full time evening shift) quit your current d...

  12. My family doctor is giving me a littmann 3200 electronic stethoscope as present for entering nursing school. Although I have purchased a littmann classic light weight already, would it be strange to use such an expensive, over the top stethoscope fo...
