1. Placed on Performance Improvement Plan and Angry

   Insperation replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

   I think every state except for Montana is a "at will" employer state. In order to win a lawsuit against an employer, you have to be able to prove that they fired you based on something like discrimination; ie because you are hispanic, female, pregnan...

2. No alcohol. NONE

   Insperation replied to Nursebry91's topic in Recovery

   You'll get used to it. You'll come up with an answer that you like. Also, you start to realize that people really don't care. They're more worried about themselves.

3. Are new grad RNs able to get a job in home health ?

   Insperation replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in New Nurse

   Oh ok... I reread what OP said...Are they likely to? I guess not. But since I've been a nurse, I've seen every single specialty hire a new grad RN..except for maybe a procedure type like cath lab or nuc med..I haven't seen them hire new nurses. Whet...

4. Is switching from a Biology degree to BSN while in undergrad worth it?

   Insperation replied to iopmoris's topic in Career Support

   Yah talk to your counselor, see what transfers over and go from there.

5. Are new grad RNs able to get a job in home health ?

   Insperation replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in New Nurse

   My friend was having a rough time getting a job in Hawaii. Her first job turned out to be home health. I think she's still doing it. As long as you are a RN, you can work anywhere that hires a RN..given you have the required certs as well (BLS, ACLS...

6. Covered Up a Narcotic Med Error

   Insperation replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

   How was she worse because she received a 10 mg roxi? I don't think they have any grounds to sue you but I'm not a lawyer. What damages would they claim? Ohh my wife was knocked out and a little loopy for 4 hours? I wouldn't worry about getting sued.

7. Lost newish grad

   Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in New Nurse

   Oh maybe in like treatment centers or something that is said. But actually the vernacular in meetings is pretty limited actually. You hear the same **** everywhere. And I've been in meetings all over the world. The concept is sound though. Yes, stop ...

8. Lost newish grad

   Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in New Nurse

   OP- Yah it sounds like you have some issues. Obviously you're aware of that. It's not like your on here blaming everyone else, you're consciously aware of your downfalls. Just know that I feel for you. There's no worse feeling that being sat down, an...

9. Lost newish grad

   Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in New Nurse

   I've been in recovery from drugs and alcohol for almost seven years and I've never heard that saying EVER, anywhere. I found it very ironic that OP is being criticized for her actual performance as a nurse and for not disclosing enough information re...

10. Lost newish grad

    Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in New Nurse

    I think the question I would ask you is: Do you believe that these concerns are legit? Just make sure you're advocating for yourself. In this profession, nurses truly can be cruel and NASTY. Your managers may hear one thing about you and then draw c...

11. Don't bring your misery to work!

    Insperation replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    my challenge is not taking work home, not the other way around. Work is for work. Why are you letting people bother you so much? Unless they are actually affecting the ability to do your job, just let them *****. They're not your friends or family so...

12. Why are they called, "Chucks?"

    Insperation replied to NPbyDay's topic in General Nursing

    I try to use them often to help my CNAs so they don't gossip about me in the camera room :/

13. Black Sheep...time to leave?

    Insperation replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Relations

    That sucks that people aren't being nice. But I don't see how any of this actually affects the ability to do your job. Work is work, it's not a social event. Maybe if you just focused on doing your job and going home and ignore the B.S politics and c...

14. Hung my own blood! :-)

    Insperation replied to JBMmom's topic in General Nursing

    Good thing they didn't have a reaction...then you'd freak out too like ahhhh what's wrong with my blood?!

15. What's your best 'Nurse Hack'?

    Insperation replied to KimasaurusRex's topic in General Nursing

    I'm always the dumbest person in the room. CNAs, patients, doctors, they are all smarter and more professional than I am. I am always there to learn from others. I let other people talk and I always defer to their opinions. This attitude does wonder...
