  2. Moderate Sedation and GI

    in my experience, "other responsibilities" referred to other patients. I have worked areas where the nurse put in orders for specimens/biopsies, etc without any issues. Of course, the specimen would be carried to pathology/lab by someone else or aft...
  3. Recovery time post sedation

    To those of you who provide conscious sedation for in-office procedures, what is your policy on recovery? Do you keep the patient on a cardiac monitor for an hour after the procedure? Or just until they are back to their baseline? Does an RN have to ...
  4. no midwife jobs here

    Am I correct to assume that it is much easier to find a job as a fnp versus a midwife? I live in a small town in eastern NC. Also, can an fnp do anything ob related? Or just gyn?
  5. no midwife jobs here

    Hi all! I am applying to FNP program at Frontier but would also like to apply to CNM. If I could do anything in nursing i would become a CNM, but I'm afraid my job options would be limited by applying to this specialty instead of a degree like the FN...

    Update: the person they had in mind for the position turned it down. They have interviewed a few others but not made offers. I had assumed that they would've immediately approached me if they considered me competent for the position. Am I correct to ...
  8. feeling stuck and worried

    I should clarify that nobody called me a "side kick" or "assistant"...I just worried that they considered me as such. I will also update that the doctors approached me and it is now clear that they value me and want me to stay
  9. feeling stuck and worried

    I started a job less than 2 months ago at a large doctors office. They hired me when the nurse manager told them her role needed to be divided in to 2 positions. She has only been there a few months longer than me. Everyone continued to think of her ...

    Hi all! I have been a RN for 10 years. I've always worked in hospitals but now I have an interview with for an office nurse (it is an office run by university physicians, so it will be North Carolina state benefits). Has anyone else here worked for t...
  13. Is it worth it?

    Im debating the same issue. Everyone says this degree doesn't offer much more pay than an RN, but I don't want to be doing RN work when I'm in my 60s....and I'm assuming I will still have to work at that age

  15. CNM program without L&D experience?

    Hi all, I have been a RN for 10 years. I almost took a job in post-partum as a new-grad but I decided I would be more marketable if I got med-surg experience before going in to a specialty. I have worked ED and procedural nursing since leaving the ge...
