  2. Saw a nurse yelling at a patient in ICU

    Yelling or loud voice speaking with a hearing-impaired patient? You need to define the situation further.
  3. Prayer being disrupted by obsessing about work

    This happened to me in the past. What helped me was attending yoga meditation sessions.

  5. I have to choose between being a nurse or mother!

    If after getting a 2nd opinion you still have to face this decision, consider your age. You are still young, you can slow down on your studies when you have your baby and get back on track af r a while. If this will put your sponsorship funds at stak...
  6. Why "compete" with American nurses or other foreign-trained nurses when you can work with them? If you mean can my Filipino training equip me to meet the demands of a USRN job, the answer is yes. I'm speaking for my personal experience as well as my ...

  11. Who is to blame for the CA BON mess and a solution?

    I agree. I, on my part, am dismayed by the sense of entitlement. I think you hit it right on the spot - "I just think it's the naivete and overall whiny-ness the young people today have and it doesn't matter what country they're from. " Add the wor...
  12. Who is to blame for the CA BON mess and a solution?

    Proudpinay, I like that wink. I should learn how these smileys, winks work. haha. I just had to correct: "but NO ONE told nor guarantee me" nor gave me a guarantee There's more, but I can't remember which. My eyes stop working after 1 hour of compu...
  13. How to explain being fired??

    If applicable to your situation, I'd be looking into employment agencies. They usually weed out the applicants for the employers. WHen they are sent to the employers for testing and interviews, most often these interviews are focused on skills an...
  14. Patient requests

    89yr old patient: I can't see! I just can't see! Please hand over my glasses My response: Ok, but first you have to open your eyes for me. (literally)
  15. Congrats!
