I would LOOOVE to know who these RN's are?! I have quite a few RN friends who work here in San Francisco and in Oakland too. We have talked about salaries and for a private hospital, a new grad may...

I work in San Francisco proper and I can tell you with 100% assurance, they are skewing those numbers. SF nurses make more than Oakland nurses do b/c the cost of living, etc is much higher and we're...

I think it's FANTASTIC and overdue! I have three great friends who are CRNA's and I have a male cousin who is an anesthesiologist in NYC. All are in favor of this and my cousin has said he works...

I'm sure there will be.

Eh, I'm kind of offended by your thoughts on nursing. It IS laboring work, true. I'll give you that. But it's also a profession. I've watched many nurses do things that I've never seen doctors do...

If you already have a Bachelors, why go backwards and make more work for yourself? Why not just get your MSN instead of taking the longer, more costly route?

Agreed.

I wish I COULD remember. I read the article and then called my parents, both of which were on statins at that time. I've tried to find that article and even saved the old link for a few years...

I read an article put out by Stanford about a year before I left for nursing school in 2005. In the article it stated that statins cause cancer. Ironically, I couldn't find the article again after...

It's seems crazy. But here in CA, an RN and a physician are the only ones allowed to perform laser hair removal, botox injections, chemical peels and other filler injections. I know a few RN's who...

Wow! That is awful!! I hope the family finds peace, what an unnecessary and avoidable tragedy.

I am a SFGH full time RN and I received a "pink slip" on Friday. Booo. There are soo many rumors going around. Some are saying it is a political ploy. Some saying it's going to start with...

Nope. It returns with new season this summer.

Why does this NOT surprise me? Increase comes despite a decade-long drop in bacterial pneumonia (HealthNewsDigest.com) - SACRAMENTO, Calif.) — A comprehensive national study by UC Davis...

CA is going to be on a hiring freeze, once again. The governor just rolled out his newest budget plans and healthcare is among the cuts. The competition out here is FIERCE and there are MANY new...

I think it's a good idea in theory, but I think a few years into it, the nursing model would become molded to the medical model. The AMA likes to control things. I don't know, maybe I'm off...

Wouldn't it depend what type of isolation? If the stuff is "unused and unopened"...

Personally, I find it appalling that they're requesting/recommending pregnant women and children get it first. Guinea pigs eh? I'm 9 months pregnant and both my midwife and OB told me NOT to get it...

I believe in euthanasia. It may not be what most people like, but we're all individual and all want what we want for ourselves. The doctors did right in upholding her will. She's a 26 year...

If you re-read my statement, I didn't say what you claim. I was making a point about Duluth Mikes point here: "The fact is that studies have showen that the vaccination of HCP reduced patient...

Why? Because not everyone agrees with you? You're a member of a public nursing board where there are bound to be MANY different points of view. If you're going to discuss a topic, you need to be...

Isn't this taking away your constitutional right? If not, how is it not?

It's VERY UNFAIR to force people to get vaccinated if it's against their wishes. And especially so since they passed this legislation quietly without informing people, as I'm sure MANY healthcare...

Thanks LJMoats:) It's definitely going to be an adventure! Some other friends told me it's a good idea to stay the second night, regardless. My mom will be here with me for three weeks, but she...

It's not surprising being that SO MANY people take antibiotics and some waste is getting to the oceans. I don't remember where I read about the testing of drinking water around the country in...
