1. resp therapy vs RN

   deathnurse replied to obeyacts2's topic in Pulmonary

2. RN to BSN orientation

   deathnurse replied to Loribabble's topic in General Nursing

   Ya' wanna' be a nurse? You passed the test. You want more letters after your name? Become a professional in another field. It's folly to stick on BSN after the RN. There is NOTHING that an ADN can do...

3. Shared Governance

   deathnurse replied to VickyRN's topic in General Nursing

   When you're saving money, you won't see snazzy ideas such as these. When you've got OPM (other people's money) from universities, county facilities, and so on, you start to see the paper mill projects...

4. What a way to end a great shift

   deathnurse replied to bellehill's topic in General Nursing

   Take your breaks before they take your spirit. Insist that "night shift" can handle it. It's a 24 hour job and this mantra that day shift has to do it all is preposterous and shouldn't be fostered. I...

8. What jobs can I get with my BSN if I don't pass Hesi/Nclex?

   deathnurse replied to doodlebug914's topic in General Nursing

   This is a GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY for you! Stay out of patient care and use that "degree" for something else. Pharmacy sales is a good one. Converting over to a pharmacist is even better. Or maybe...

10. Health policies highlight Kerry and Bush differences, analysts say

    deathnurse replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Yeah, the situation sucks, but we're making choices aren't we? Get out of nursing and into a business with more

14. Just frustrated at poor attitudes in the general public.

    deathnurse replied to movealong's topic in General Nursing

    Nursing is the most well-respected occupation in the public opinion polls. But it doesn't appear that they are polling the patients and visitors in the hospital. Patients love nurses until they need...

15. Mandatory Meetings :(

    deathnurse replied to MandyInMS's topic in General Nursing

    ...and the problem is, specifically: How could anyone even consider that they would have to attend this "mandatory" meeting at the whim of a managers coercion? Can't you all take a JOKE? Tell em'...
