   ButtaflyRN replied to Jamuhh's topic in General Nursing

2. Nurses Notes - A Thing of the Past?

   ButtaflyRN replied to Smb411's topic in General Nursing

   My previous hospital was using EMR since at least 2009 when I was in nursing school, I started working there in 2011 and we were trained to chart by exception, our EMR was rather detailed though. We would of course chart if something happened during ...

3. Is this considered Tele experience?

   ButtaflyRN replied to ButtaflyRN's topic in Cardiac

   Thank you, I didn't think it was really but the floor I float to doesnt do much more than that which is why I wondered.

4. California Endorsement purgatory

   ButtaflyRN replied to MJB2010's topic in California

   This is my timeline from last year, it does take forever but when I did mine online had just become an option but with out of state hard card fingerprints it didnt make it any quicker. I happened to have this still saved on my phone: Mailed 6/14/2016...

5. Is this considered Tele experience?

   ButtaflyRN posted a topic in Cardiac

   I moved to California from the midwest and at my old hospital which was honestly more critical than my new one, every floor took care of pts on tele monitors. We didnt have tele techs on my floor but we could have up to 6 pts on a monitor. We gave me...

11. Am I ill-suited to the ED?

    ButtaflyRN replied to FolksBtrippin's topic in Emergency

    Can you look at doing psych as an intake nurse? My daughter went to the ED a few years back when she had self harm thoughts, she met with the intake nurse in the ED as it was pretty late at night. I dont work in the ED but imagine it would be hard to...

    ButtaflyRN replied to ButtaflyRN's topic in California

    Thank you :) So far the hospitals I've looked at say that minimum requirement is an ADN but that BSN is preferred so hopefully they actually will take me. Another good thing :):) I spoke with my cousin who lives in Sacramento and she knows of some ho...
