    Our sister hospital had one cls but they don't anymore. I guess it was a money thing most of our patients only stay 3 days or less.
  2. Child Life Specialist vs Pediatric RN

    I know two nurses with degrees in child life. I worked at a children's hospital and they only had 1 classes that I ever met but the did hire assistants. One became a nurse because she realized that was her calling the other could get a job. She also ...

  11. No job post ER internship

    I think you should probably list it because some experience is better than none. On applications if you are eligible for rehire just say something about how the experience was not for you. Apply for med surg floors or smaller ers where you can get a ...

    I don't think they're nurses and the term nurse is being used as click bait to get people to read the article.
  13. Pediatric rounding rules

    Ask your professor what rounding rule they prefer for grading. In real word peds its sometimes guess work. I can't give a baby 2.345 ml of Tylenol I give as close as I can usually 2.4 or as close to between 2.3 or 2.4 as I can depending on the syring...
