   BeSweet replied to BeSweet's topic in School

   Thanks y'all! This is my first year school nursing, but your right that I have probably already been exposed. This is also my first pregnancy after struggling with infertility, so my fear is in overdrive! :)

2. Risks of school nursing while pregnant?

   BeSweet posted a topic in School

   Hi all, I just recently found out I am pregnant, and am a little worried working with school age children. I am an elementary school nurse (and a bit of a hypochondriac!). I am immune to MMR and varicella, but I am more worried about the kids with f...

3. Advice for School Nurse

   BeSweet posted a topic in School

   Hello all!! I have been offered a job as a Health Technician for an elementary school, which is technically for a LPN/ADN (I have a BSN). I worked one year in adult ICU but have been unemployed for the past 15 months. I really did not enjoy hospit...

   BeSweet replied to NurseOTPT's topic in Career Support

   I almost dropped out of nursing school (BSN) after a year to pursue an OT degree. I wish to this day that I did it. I love love love taking care of people, but for the same reasons you listed, I'm not sure nursing was the right route for me. I'm ...

7. Should I take the job?

8. Should I take the job?

   BeSweet replied to BeSweet's topic in General Nursing

   Frankly no I don't want to work for that little. I know school nurses don't make much compared to hospital nurses, but 14/hr is extreme. I don't need any benefits such as health insurance, so I think I am going to ask for $18-20/hr and if they refu...

9. Should I take the job?

   BeSweet replied to BeSweet's topic in General Nursing

   I really am interested in home health/hospice. And the responsibilities at the school job sound similar to what a home health nurse does, but for a lot more money. Except we live in the middle of nowhere and my husband is afraid for me to go into h...

    Hello all, I graduated with my BSN in December 2008. I took a job in the ICU (adult population), and quickly found out that the stress of emergent situations was NOT for me, and quit after 9 months. I then got married and moved twice in 6 months (m...
