Not introducing yourself to anyone, just showing up and stalking. Tell me your name, what level you are, and what you can do/any goals for the day. And certainly introduce yourself to the...

My OR takes new grads, and they really like us to refer people. I would try to network as much as possible, and if you can get a hold of the contact info for nurse recruiters and call them. Other...

Sometimes it comes out to plain old numbers. At my school you pretty much needed a straight 4.0 in the courses they looked at. I think I read that you had a 3.8 (forgive me if I forgot) which is an...

From what I have seen it depends on the facility. I have seen it where the shift is split strictly by calender days, and also where a night shift counts as the day on which it starts. Best bet is to...

What need would a CRNA have to write a prescription?

I work in a very large OR that does pretty much every kind of surgery you can imagine, so I am never bored. I am always seeing interesing things that keep me going. The stuff I see amazes me. Are you...

I would just ask them next time you see them! Also, I would want to know what was going on in case of an emergency.

We had an autistic kid with a photographic memory that joined our school in middle school. They wanted to mainstream him as much as possible (awesome since this was quite a while ago and the only...

Had a PCT (one trained and certified even) tell me that "it's going to be nice to have all the blood from her period go into the catheter bag so we don't have to clean it up" upon hearing that a...

I know it's frustrating. I work in a unit that cannot keep new employees more than a year. They treat people very badly and so they leave in droves. The older employees that are staying resent the...

They are very slow moving nowadays due to layoffs. It's rough waiting on them but I think they are doing the best they can. Haven't heard of any professionalism probs though.

Doesn't hurt to give them a quick call.

I use the Dr Scholls inserts with athletic shoes and they work well for me. They are expensive for inserts, but they give you your money back if you are not satisfied. It took a couple days to get...

I had a formal sit-down in the in the educators' office because "people can not tell when I'm thinking when they look at me". I guess it's my fault their ESP is off :)

Same here.

Education level and intelligence are two completely different things.

I would choose DRH or the VA. They are all next to each other with Children's, Karmanos, Harper/Hutzel, Kresge, and Wayne State and there is a stronger police/security presence in the area. Not that...

If offered, I would take it and quit if you decide it is not for you (or use your internal candidate status to transfer to a better fitting department). If it works out great for you. If it...

I never did clinicals there but I work for the DMC and do know that it is not a nice part of town. Be aware of your surroudnings, and if possible car-pool.

Some are strict, some aren't. I had plenty of interviews as a new grad for jobs that required 1-2 years experience. It doesn't hurt to apply to jobs...you never know.

Our institution won't allow standing order sets, so it all has to be put in individually. We go off of our preference cards, or whatever the physician asks for. We can't chart verbal order though, it...

I'm starting an online program at my local university in August. There are about 120 total clinical hours involved that you arrange at a facility near your home. Be careful to ask questions...

Not sure about patho but I used Macomb Community college for mine while out of state so I never set foot on campus

I only had one math question. It involved a couple conversions and was one of the longer formulas but I can't remember which.
