2. Is my supervisor trying to get me to quit?

   Evalynn replied to ABQLNDRN's topic in General Nursing

   As for your supervisor, do you really expect to always have your day off that you want? That doesn't always happen where I work, and I wouldn't presume the manipulation of the schedule is happening. And if you think it is, WHY NOT JUST ASK? Obviously...

   Evalynn replied to ABQLNDRN's topic in General Nursing

   I've worked in envrionments where I've had hostile coworkers too, not as a nurse (yet.... hoping that it doesn't happen), but they were wretched experiences. Sadly, the worst ones were by jealous/territorial women. The men seemed to just jump on boa...

5. which nursing speciality is at most risk for being sued?

   Evalynn replied to chiuli's topic in General Nursing

   There are a lot of frivolous lawsuits that shouldn't happen, but I think health care professionals need to be held accountable too. My family lost a loved one due to horrendous neglect from health care professionals. That's actually the reason why ...

   Evalynn replied to StangGang92's topic in Doctoral

   I have heard that nurse practitioners will need doctorates now to practice as well, although I am here because I want to make sure it's true. It's interesting to me if it turns out to be true because I think this will create a shortage of nurse prac...

   Evalynn replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas

   Yeah trailerparkmedic, that's a good point. I did check out a few popular nursing textbooks with mosby, and then searched them on amazon - and I couldn't find any that were in ebook form for the kindle - let alone the ipad. Looks like I'll just rel...

   Evalynn replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas

   Thanks Amomin for the advice! I am mostly thinking of a study aid... do you study inbetween classes with textbooks? I will have to commute, so if I've got a couple hours to kill inbetween classes, I'm hoping to study so that I can have as much fami...

   Evalynn replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas

   Hi everyone, I'm looking into options for storing my textbooks on something electronic so that I don't have to drag a million textbooks around on campus. I've heard of people buying PDAs with pharmacology software (for example) - but that doesn't s...

    Evalynn replied to DLKeys's topic in General Nursing

    While I am not a nurse (I am a hoping to become one though!), I work in the medical field, specifically in geriatrics. I have heard doctors and nurses complain of negligent caregivers/home health aides, so it's definitely something to worry about! ...
