  1. Should I speak of another offer during an interview???

    No, cause I can promise you that they really don't care! I am sure that they have plenty more in line for that same position.
  2. Medical Assisting

    Not sure what state you are doing the above, but before I became a nurse I was a Medical Assistant. I can tell you that in my state, you would be WAY out of the realm of what you are certified to do and I am pretty sure this would go for ANY state! ...
  3. Passed my NCLEX, is there a way to review my exam?

    Not that I know of and please don't take this the wrong way, but let it go, you passed so be happy and don't stress about the right or wrong questions! Congrats!
  4. Should i go over my manager's head

    At my last hospital managers were required to go to at least one room that we were assigned and ask pt how they felt about the care they were receiving. We also could not have any drinks ANYWHERE but the break room. If they found drink, it was tras...
  5. Organizing for nursing school

    I had specific room in my house where all of my studying took place. Kept everything I needed in that one room so I didn't have to interrupt my study time going to "find things". My children were young so I had a box fan in room I turned on to drow...
  6. HR drop/rhythm change during sleep..Would you call Doc?

    Regardless of assessment findings, if there were parameters set, I would have called! If anything, just to CYA.
  7. What Have I Gotten Myself Into?

  8. feeling like a failure (kinda long)

    I agree vicedrn! I just dropped the ball on the whole deal. I want to do everything anyone needs, right then, guess I just suck at prioritizing!! I knew I had screwed up the second lab called with the elevated troponin. Really, I knew it was bad ...
  9. feeling like a failure (kinda long)

    Yea, it was very clicky and I just never felt as though I fit in with anyone! I just feel bad about leaving without notice. I just couldn't take it anymore!! Leaving like that is NOT my style. I feel as though I need to go and talk with CNO, who ...
  10. feeling like a failure (kinda long)

    I have been a nurse for almost 7 years with most of my experience being in med-surg, just spent the last year in ER. I started on night shift and begged to be put on days. My wish came true, but that is were my problems started. I have never been ...
  11. Benadryl use with Dilaudid.. just curious!

    We have plenty that come through ER that want their 3 drugs of choice-Dilaudid, Phenergan and Benadryl. I give all three together and trust me, they will ask me, "does that have my Benadryl in it?" and I smile and say "of course it does." Then, I b...
  12. Blood admin question

    It is in our hospital's written policy that the final check by 2 RNs be done at the bedside so that the pt's armband can be used as one of the final identifiers. I have never spiked a bag of blood at nurse's station, a bag of fluid maybe, but never ...
  13. Why did you pick your username?

    Picked mine because I do luv my hubby bunches. He and I were "friends" 23 years ago, both married different people back then (big mistake), but both ended up divorced and back together 20 years later! I didn't appreciate his kind loving nature when...
  14. written up

    I too had problem with reporting off as new nurse. I kept a report sheet with me at all times. I used this to get report and give report. I printed it off on my computer and at top the following things were listed with boxes under each title to li...
  15. Disappointed in myself and feel like a failure in nursing.

    If you want to make a change, I think that would be a great idea, but just know this, you will more than likely have to deal with these type of people anywhere you go! They are everywhere!! Definitely not good for our profession and I question how ...
