  1. Part time CRNA school for Police officer

    Just a few thoughts. Would you consider pursuing nursing/crna after retiring from the PD? That way you can concentrate fully on your career choices. It sounds like your in the civil service department so you could be retiring quite young depending on...

  3. Nurse at Disneyworld

    Love this thread! I've had similar thoughts about being a nurse in Disney or even on a cruise ship lol.
  4. You should know better

    I always drive over the speed limit. Coffee. All. Day. I almost never take my vitamins. I self diagnose and treat accordingly. I could eat steak every day.
  5. Have you ever fainted 😕

    Lol. It definately is ok to feel a bit "fainty"during new experiences. Especially if your expected to be a part of the process! I nearly passed out the first time I cleaned up a c-diff blowout!!! I made my way over to the chair the patient had just ...
  6. Have you ever fainted 😕

    Congrats on your new job! first question: Did you eat breakfast/hydrate? Second question: Are you pregnant?

    Isn't this the same person who says they don't go on these "trips", and just ends up picking up the pieces on Monday morning. You know what, I give up...... I thought this was going to be a great thread til I opened it. Kinda like that acquaintance t...
  8. I'm a sexless nurse

    Been following this thread all weekend and officially give up somewhere around post 130. OP is a boarding school nurse now, no? My timeline is reading that his experiences were almost 20 years ago. Doesn't that just make this all a MOOT point consid...

  10. Compression socks

    Compression socks can be covered by your insurance if the compression you need is 20mmHg or more. But you have to find a provider in your area that will size you and prescribe them!
  11. Only 11,310 Days til Retirement!!!!

    Agreed! I love what I do and will most likely still work after retirement! I want to do it because I can not because I have to financially.
  12. Only 11,310 Days til Retirement!!!!

    I don't know what it is but I've been thinking about retirement all week! Maybe I just need a nice vacation. There must be plenty of nurses here thinking about their very distant retirement as well. Slightly depressing but also nice to start planni...
  13. June 13, 2015 Cc: DON; Nurse Manager; Entire Hospital Staff Dear Human Resources, I regret to inform you that I will be departing Wonderland University Hospital after 30 years of service. Wonderland has provided me many opportunities to learn and g...
  14. Cnas getting hired at grade schools

    My thought is maybe as a "Health Aide". My kids school district hires them. They usually work in the school nurse/health office. Minimum requirements for the job is CPR and First Aide certified. They're the nurses helping hand around the office.
  15. Can a CMA teach a MA class?

    New York here... MA's teach MA classes. Most postings require you to have your certification and at least 5 years experience with preferably an associates degree (usually not specified in what). Nurses teach CNA classes.
