I've been working as a staff RN in a large federally funded community health clinic and a big part of my job is triaging walk-ins and phone triaging. In my experience, sure a book would help with the basics, but I have found that it ultimately comes ...

Well I am relatively new to my area and haven't been at working at my current workplace for very long. The only 2 nurse leaders I know are (who I think are incredible examples of nurse leaders) are my direct supervisor and DON, and as silly as it may...

I don't know why anyone would waste their time to thoughtfully respond to random interview questions if they're not even a nurse but I suppose you're right. Now, I don't mind sharing my personal reasons if you are wanting to offer helpful feedback as...
Hello, my name is Nancy, and I am a student pursuing my master's in nursing with an emphasis in healthcare systems leadership. One of our assignments is to interview a nurse leader. I would greatly appreciate if someone in this position would respond...
Hi! I'm a new grad nurse, trying to find a position that offers variety and where patients aren't in too acute of a condition. The hospital near my house has a few openings in a progressive care unit and short stay. I'm not too familiar with either o...

Thanks for the feedback everyone! So in relation to responses, the most appropriate thing to do would be to call the nursing director who interviewed me, and explain that I will be accepting another job offer from a different hospital. Would it be i...
So the deal is I recieved two job offers from jobs I interviewed for. I got called back from job 1, accepted, but have not signed anything but am "provisionally" hired waiting on criminal background check and references. Job 2 is what I really want...

I would say it can be done. People in my class worked part time as PCTs or CNAs on weekends and I had a part time job as a private caregiver with very flexible hours working 1-3 hours/day about 2-4 times a week with a stroke patient. There's no way I...

I say no. In my opinion, you aren't paying for a more prestigious nursing program, but rather a '7th day adventist' education, the school's denomination.

Thanks for the input! My concern is recieving less training at hospital 2 just because I missed their deadline for a residency program I think, but it's an exceptional hospital, but then again I don't want to just go with that because of the "status"...
I just graduated in May and got two job offers and wanted some input as to what to consider as I make my choice. I'm going to list pros and cons of each and hope for some guidance as to which route I should go! Any input is appreciated! Hospital 1:...
