1. Why don't you just read the chart?

   molls4 replied to Guest219794's topic in Relations

   Good luck in your career, OP. With that work ethic, it's likely to shine in your work relationships. This was probably the best example of how NOT to be a team player in a patient's plan of care. No matter the department, we all work to get the patie...

2. Stethoscope, Shoes, Scrubs

   molls4 replied to Hoping2BeANurse's topic in Oklahoma

   Amazon prime offers a free student trial- that translates into free two day shipping. All you need is a .edu email address. Their two day shipping has always been reliable for me.

3. 4 job offers-what will help me get my "dream job"

   molls4 replied to scaredsilly's topic in New Nurse

   I am a new grad too. Like above, I'm definitely not a hiring manager for a hospital, but I see the private duty peds or the home health jobs being the most beneficial in terms of beefing up your résumé and letting you polish your nursing skills. I ag...

4. How Long Does It Take To Not Feel Like An Idiot (Advice Needed and Some Venting)?

   molls4 replied to MissEm's topic in New Nurse

   What do you use for your "brain" (patient assignment sheet) while you're at work? I know a lot of facilities have pre-printed "brains" that you can use, however, they're usually generic, have small places for pt info, and aren't organized how you wou...

5. CHOA Peds test.. what it's like!

   molls4 replied to KayRN910's topic in Georgia

   I took this test recently, so I figured I would comment on what my study plan was. I used my Saunders NCLEX review book and reviewed some notes from class. I like Saunders a lot because of the organization of the material. But if you don't already ow...

6. CHOA nurse residency

   molls4 replied to brownsc2's topic in Georgia

   I haven't started yet, but I'm a recent BSN grad that is going to start the new grad program in a few weeks. I briefly met with the recruiters at a career fair last fall and they recommended a few things to me. First, if you can do your practicum the...

7. Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Nurse Residency

   molls4 replied to nreed5's topic in Georgia

   After polling my friends (some internal candidates), it appears that the departments that are hiring new grads are all at different points in the process. Some applicants are taking the peds test (last part of the process before an official offer is ...

8. Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Nurse Residency

   molls4 replied to nreed5's topic in Georgia

   The questions were more general for my digital interview. Not every set of questions are the same (from what I've compared with my friends' digital interviews). Mine questions were like: Why nursing? Why peds? Why CHOA? What 3 new grad areas are you ...

9. KSU vs GSU

   molls4 replied to hopefull1n30188's topic in Georgia

   Oh and I understand about going the efficient route. This is my second career and I'll turn 31 in July. Happy early birthday, by the way! It's never too late to pursue a new career that you know you'll love :-)

10. KSU vs GSU

    molls4 replied to hopefull1n30188's topic in Georgia

    Just like GSU's ACE program, you have to have a previous degree for KSU's accelerated. They only take 40 people for the accelerated program each spring or fall semester. The traditional program takes 80 I believe. There are actually a couple of threa...

11. KSU vs GSU

    molls4 replied to hopefull1n30188's topic in Georgia

    I currently attend KSU. But, when I was applying to schools, I was accepted to both KSU and GSU. The deciding factor to me was the fact that GSU requires 2 classes to qualify for their ACE program (this may have changed since I applied in the fall of...

12. Pre-Nursing Student Looking for WORK

    molls4 replied to MO2u's topic in Georgia

    If you don't have prior experience as a PCT, then most hospitals require either completion of one semester of nursing school (one clinical rotation, more specifically) or CNA certification to be hired as a PCT. Reading posts on here can get super ove...

13. Reporting a hipaa violation

    molls4 replied to kjnsweets's topic in HIPAA

    http://www.hhs.gov/ocr/privacy/hipaa/complaints/index.html Here is the link on how to report a violation, but this escalates it to a serious place. There is another option, too. Most facilities have a privacy officer or an entity that fills this role...

14. Pregnant Assignment Room

    molls4 replied to souleater11's topic in NCLEX

    SoldierNurse is absolutely right. Sharing rooms with a chemo patient is a bad idea if pregnant. In pharm, we learned a ton of prototype chemo drugs are pregnancy category X and a lot of them are excreted in bodily fluids. When nurses empty bed pans, ...
