1. Has anyone on here taken the EBAS exam?

   Lady_Leijing posted a topic in General Nursing

   Long story short, I did something stupid about two years ago that got me fired from a job. As part of my punishment, I'm having to take the Ethics and Boundaries Assessment Survey (EBAS). I can't find any suggestions on how to study for this test; t...

2. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

   Lady_Leijing replied to Lady_Leijing's topic in Professionalism

   I hadn't logged in to check this for a while and only recently had an update. The BON absolutely has decided to pursue it and made 3 years probation their opening offer. 😒

3. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

   Lady_Leijing replied to Lady_Leijing's topic in Professionalism

   It's lined up but it doesn't start until January 27. It's taken me almost a month to get all the paperwork done to even start because it's a through an employment agency.

4. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

   Lady_Leijing replied to Lady_Leijing's topic in Professionalism

   Ah, thank several of you for completely missing my question and assuming that I haven't learned my lesson or suffered at all being without a job for 2 and a half months. I'm literally asking what I should do next since the hospital that fired me has ...

5. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

   Lady_Leijing replied to Lady_Leijing's topic in Professionalism

   No, they never asked. They have my resume, so they know I'm not currently employed, but the question never came up and that feels like something you don't bring up unless asked.

   Lady_Leijing replied to Lady_Leijing's topic in Professionalism

   Funny you should say that. My husband and I went out yesterday for celebratory sushi and Soju before I found that awful letter in the mailbox

7. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

   Lady_Leijing replied to Lady_Leijing's topic in Professionalism

   I already have another job lined up, but getting that letter today has me a little rattled. I don't want them to screw up my new job before I can even start it

8. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

   Lady_Leijing posted a topic in Professionalism

   I was fairly recently fired for having my phone out at the wrong time. Per hospital policy, we aren't supposed to have our personal phones out except in the break room, but at night, it's not uncommon for nurses to have their phones out at the nurses...

9. NICU to School Nurse

   Lady_Leijing replied to lnhRN's topic in School

   I'm curious about this myself. I'm also a NICU nurse who is looking for something different. I'm wondering: what sort of prerequisites do I need to make the switch? Is there a class or certification needed? What kind of training (if any) can I e...

10. Public transit to get to/from work?

    Lady_Leijing posted a topic in Travel

    I've got a question for my fellow travelers working in bigger cities. I'm looking for my next assignment, and my recruiter found one in Miami that I'm interested in. The catch: it's a 12 hour drive to get there. My recruiter suggested I could fly out...

11. Ever forgotten to feed a baby?

    Lady_Leijing replied to jennylee321's topic in NICU

    I had a pretty intense dream during the day today. (I'm night shift if you didn't guess). I dreamed that I was getting report on the little one I've been taking care of for the last couple weeks, and the day nurse says "well no wonder she didn't tole...

12. Charting Bloopers

    Lady_Leijing replied to AHarri66's topic in Humor

    Centricity Perinatal and I don't get along. I somehow ended up with 3 different lines for charting urine output on one patient.

13. Public Service Announcement

    Lady_Leijing replied to Swellz's topic in Travel

    A little thread necromancy, but I have a real life update on how to cook dinner with an electric kettle. I rented what I thought was an extended stay room, but it turns out that this hotel just has extended stay RATES plus a mini fridge and a microwa...

14. NG tube question

    Lady_Leijing replied to RNinCali15's topic in NICU

    I'm going to second what some of the other nurses have said: go with the hospital policy. I've worked at hospitals that required a position check and a residual check before every feeding if the kid has an NG tube. I've worked at some that didn't che...

15. Public Service Announcement

    Lady_Leijing replied to Swellz's topic in Travel

    So far I've only made tea, coffee, and instant oatmeal/grits, but a while back I saw a list of things that could be cooked in a coffee maker that would be easy to switch over to an electric kettle. Mostly soups, pasta, and vegetables. You basically h...
