  1. RVU understanding

    I am desperate for help in understanding the wRVU + salary model that my current job holds. Lets say one is paid salary, at 120,000 a year and gets wRVUs. You must have more than 66.1 RVUs per day, or 660 per month to make anything additional. Each w...
  2. What is it like in your hospital right now?

    still in the denver metro area, still hardly any covids and the rate is decreasing dramatically.
  3. At our hospital they are considered aerosolizing and require an n95.
  4. What is it like in your hospital right now?

    What is also aerosolizing and related to med-surg nurses is nebulizers...
  5. What is it like in your hospital right now?

    This is so crazy. My hospital has the exact same "advanced droplet" precautions and I'm using my OWN n95 mask. Currently shopping on amazon for shoe and hair covers to supply myself too. ridiculous.
  6. What is it like in your hospital right now?

    I'm PRN and have been on call because of low census. I know we have COVID and r/o COVID patients; I'm actually "assigned" to the COVID floor, but because of my status + elective surgeries canceled + people avoiding the hospital, our census is low. I...
  7. Refusing Care of a COVID-19 Patient Due to Inappropriate PPE

    What good are you as a nurse if you knowingly contract covid19 and possibly die?
  8. Refusing Care of a COVID-19 Patient Due to Inappropriate PPE

    I agree, I'm bringing my own n95 to work with covid patients because I just don't trust it. coughing in my face is aerosolizing IMO! Absolutely not, NOPE NOPE NOPE.
  9. Exposed to patient positive with coronavirus

    holy. ***.
  10. Proper PPE

    I’m assigned to the COVID floor and our PPE is a mask, gown, goggles, and eye pro. Reuse the mask for ONE WEEK. only an n95 is needed if getting a bronch or on a vent. I know the WHO says it’s droplet but I see posts from other COVID floor and the...
  11. Nurse Practitioner- Job Outlook

    Thank you very much. It’s like I want to go to grad school and be an FNP just because that’s what’s expected at this point and the next step in my career. But you are totally right, I keep thinking my goals and ideas aren’t figured out yet completely...
  12. Nurse Practitioner- Job Outlook

    Thank you so much for your response. I will have to start networking for sure at the hospital I work out. I do agree it can be about the people you know. My “problem” is I am a float pool nurse, have been since I graduated 5 years ago. So I don’t rea...
  13. Nurse Practitioner- Job Outlook

    Hi, Assuming I get accepted, I will start FNP School in a few months. We all know how expensive it can be and I have a family...and well, a lot of questions that I'm having a hard time finding the answer to. For one, I don't see myself as a primary ...
  14. If I don't eat in the morning before bed I will wake up around noon, too! I try to eat something hearty and not just cereal... so oatmeal, eggs and toast, etc. I also gained a few lbs when starting night shift but I think that's because I found it mu...
  15. Pain Management/Seeking

    Thank you for your input... I want to clarify that I've never withheld medications from a patient. Like I said, if it's on the MAR, I give it, and if they need me to call the doctor, I always do. I wonder why this bothers me so much? I guess I feel l...
