  1. Nursing is the Biggest Mistake of My Life

    I'm sorry to say that I am not sorry. This attitude of woe-is-me and the days of our lives addendum involving a fiancé who clearly finds you to be a conditional agreement is tired, and old. I refuse to be another "you can do it!" poster with nothing...
  2. a new idea ?

    I'm curious as to what course of action you'd have in mind in the [inevitable] event you find potentially pathogenic profiles of whatever is being cultured. Also, I'm not sure how valuable this information would be. It is one thing to say bacteria is...
  3. Take the Offer as a New Grad?

    I really don't understand why people are so eager to share salary values, but don't share their location. So many replies on the judgement of the salary as being either good or bad, when there is an obvious variance of compensation across the board i...
  4. New to Navy, ODS, Portsmouth-need any help?

    You usually get 10 days of leave you may *use* before reporting to your new duty station. Keep in mind these are leave days you havn't earned yet, so if yoy don't feel like you need a break, just report asap.
  5. Navy Nurse First Duty/ODS/Relocation 2013

    I believe they will house us according to company, sex, and last name. I will join up when I get to my cpu.
  6. Navy Nurse First Duty/ODS/Relocation 2013

    I hear the navy only takes a handful of flight nurses for their program yearly. The Air-force does more of flight nursing transport than a lot of other branches from what I hear. There's a great TV show of (I think) Army Nurses in Afghanistan working...
  7. Navy Nurse First Duty/ODS/Relocation 2013

    I don't have Linkedin, but I have a facebook. If someone were to create a facebook group for the ODS May group so we could connect and share stuff I would totally join.
  8. Navy Nurse First Duty/ODS/Relocation 2013

    It isnt much exprience. I did a 10 month residency in ICU and I landed a job in an ER inside a Prison--it operated much like a rural ED; we transfered most things out, but did abd/chest workups as well as small procedures. I'm trying to get my PRT s...

  10. Navy Nurse First Duty/ODS/Relocation 2013

    Hi all. I was selected with my duty station being Camp Pendleton. I report to ODS in RI on May 12th, I was wondering if anyone else here had the same ODS date, maybe we can exchange some info and touch base when we get there--its always nice to buddy...
  11. Dermabond Scope Situation (CA)

    Yes, I didn't want to mention the politics behind it, but there are definitely personality issues behind this situation. I have asked the board more about clarification regarding the need for an order, this was their response: ****, You are ask...
  12. Dermabond Scope Situation (CA)

    I emailed the board and this was their response: Dear ****, the application of Dermabond is covered under b&P 2725 (b)(1), direct and indirect patient care services that ensure the safety, comfort and personal hygiene and protection of patients...
  13. Dermabond Scope Situation (CA)

    I am caught in a dilemma here. I work in a triage area within a prison facility that operates similarly to a rural ED. We receive a patient who was involved in an altercation and presents with multiple lacerations to the face including a 3cm long sup...
  14. I have a supervisor that is 4'11" and shes tough as nails. Doesn't matter what your stature is; as long as you can socially adapt to the unique environment of a prison. You will be hired based on your skills and character, not whether you can arm bar...
  15. CDCR Realignment Layoffs

    Same here, our over/underage report shows one vacancy as well as one at the prison next door. In a nutshell, if we can survive past March 31st it looks as though we are safe. Crossing fingers (still limited term here!)
