   mom2bnrs replied to GrammaKay's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I am a farily new-grad; I've only been out of school for about a year now and I have had this experience also. I can never seem to find the words to say to these mother's or father's, but I realize I never will. I love my job, but I will never get ...

   mom2bnrs replied to Lylesmom's topic in New Nurse

   I drive 56 miles one way-about 50 min each way-7p-7a. I have had to pull over and stop b/c I was so tired. I just call someone and let them know where I am. I set the alarm on my phone and take a "power nap". I occasionally stay with people from work...

   Thanks for all the comments. I currently work in a hospital in montogmery al and I'm ok with my new grad pay, I was just curious if other places offered "extra" for L & D. Thanks again!

8. Speciality Pay

   mom2bnrs replied to mom2bnrs's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I realize that-but not ALL RN's can do what we do. There isn't another place in the hospital that a nurse can be pulled from-unless they have previous experience-to come help us, so in my opinion-we are a speciality area. I was just curious b/c I hav...
