  1. Nurse to Physician

    Not sure what advice I can give but I am graduating as an acute care NP this Summer and I feel drastically unprepared. Everyone loves to bemoan that school never prepares you for practice and sure it can’t 100% prepare you but I don’t even feel 30%...

  3. Bizarre NP Preceptor Experience!

    Hi thanks for the replies, this is a formal update on the situation. It was a horrible experience and I did go to the clinical placement manager who is also the program director (smh) to ask for a new placement which she refused to give me. This prog...
  4. I was recently speaking with another master's prepared nurse who works in informatics about becoming an Acute Care NP and my experience as an NP student. Her immediate response was "why would you want to do exactly what the physician does for a drama...
  5. Bizarre NP Preceptor Experience!

    This is an acute care program in NYC, fairly well known. I’ll fill in more when the semester is over.
  6. Bizarre NP Preceptor Experience!

    Hey all! It seems my preceptor doesn’t want me... long but good! So I’m going into my last 2 semesters of an acute care program. This summer I have my first clinical rotation and I landed my dream rotation right off bat... cardio thoracic ICU at a wo...

    Too scared too, she might wreck the place if we do.
  8. Bizarre Co-Worker Rant!

    Regarding the levophed we work in an ICU and that day pharmacy had mix an extra bag of levophed as the patient was on a high dose and running through the bag in a short period of time. She had an additional bag she did not need and I needed a bag sta...

    Yep sound like a kiss bottom nurse administrator or manager that's peeved at the medicine Gods having their gifts stolen... and I thought my workplace was full of odd balls... sad lol
  10. Bizarre Co-Worker Rant!

    Funny and really odd that you say this because like I said she makes some unsavory comments at times, one in particular directed at an administrator that I will not even repeat here, but she said it at the nurses station and I'm sure I wasn't the onl...
  11. Bizarre Co-Worker Rant!

    *shrug* I've worked at a few places and while most are informal, some still are. But apparently we're not being formal enough and she wants to give out write ups for this (as if she has any authority to write up a fellow RN)
  12. Bizarre Co-Worker Rant!

    We currently have had a very seasoned nurse on our cc float team for the past year who transferred from endoscopy back to the units (tele/icu float). She is a knowledgeable nurse, a bit rough around the edges (potty mouth, bossy, and a bit know it al...
  13. Staff Nurses Who Refuse To Precept Or Teach?

    Oh my what a Pandora's box I have opened. Then I wonder what if no one on a unit wants to precept and this I ask speaking from experience. Two years ago every nurse the manager approached refused to precept so she had to mandate someone... oh boy w...
  14. Staff Nurses Who Refuse To Precept Or Teach?

    The colleague I referred her to is not the same one who refused to precept. That was a different nurse.
  15. Of course I understand that not everyone wants to be a teacher or professor but a few of my coworkers lately have down right refused to precept or even be a resource to newer or less experienced nurses. The education department had placed a sign up s...
