5. bedside nursing, is it really that bad?

   goalienrse replied to OCRN3's topic in General Nursing

   Not a big fan of bed side nursing personally for many reasons. I have found most nursing aren't either. In my opinion it is a hard hard road. You have to really really want to be a nurse, have really...

6. Burned out and hate nursing

   goalienrse replied to RN1023's topic in Health, Stress Management

   I know the feeling OP. I've been a nurse for a year and a half only now and I truly hate this field. Managers and nursing assistances can make all the difference too. Many managers are out of touch,...

    goalienrse replied to newrnltc's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    Don't be envious, like someone said before, its HIGHLY over rated. Most bed side nursing jobs are fit for dogs. I will be leaving bed side as soon as I can and never ever looking

13. Starting first RN job soon and I am terrified.

    goalienrse replied to corgimomRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Good luck! 4 weeks isn't terribly long, but I've heard of worse. I'll be real, nursing can be, more like just "is", a bumpy ride. In the beginning it can be really really tough and just plain...

14. Mistakes

    goalienrse replied to DeeDee_RN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I have to say, just a year and a half into my career I have really really had it with nursing. I'm sick of management dinging me for everything they possibly can for nothing, I'm sick of lazy nursing...
