  1. Got fired... again. Should I not be a nurse?

    I am not a writer, so sometimes what I am trying to say does not come through, but I will try :) When I was in nursing school, there were skills that I read how to perform, and saw other students perform, but never got the chance to do it myself beca...
  2. Got fired... again. Should I not be a nurse?

    I agree, med/surg experience is very beneficial. When I came out of nursing school I wanted to go straight to the ICU. Many people told me to do the med/curg first, for at least a year but I didnt want to and resented them for implying that I couldnt...

  7. Nursing salaries by state

    I started out in La for about 18 an hour, now in texas where starting pay isnt much higher. Remember that you have to factor in cost of living wherever you are, benefits, and job satisfaction as well. I would rather earn less money at I place I love ...
  8. Nursing without license

    I just learned that my nurse manager had a license revocation quite some time ago. Apparently the upper management knows about it and are being very hush-hush. I cant believe this person hasnt been fired, or reported to the DA. I know that if I repor...
