As long as they didn't report you to the BON and as long as you don't apply for any government jobs, this job will not show up on any background check. There are a lot of people who say to leave it...
OK it sounds like a regular RN job at an urgent care. The job title was confusing. I assume it's what you'll take since it's the one with the benefits and with full time hours. With hospital nursing...
I am suspicious of the nurse specialist position. If the demand for new grads in your area is as low as you're saying, why are they hiring a new grad for a coveted day shift position... a position...

OK you weren't there very long, I assume, if you were still on orientation. I would leave it off my resume if it were me (name cleared or not). Leaving a job while on orientation is also a red flag to...

Man, forget this place. You did make a new grad error but it should have been caught by your preceptor. Maybe it wasn't because the staffing is unsafe and she couldn't handle it. I bet she wasn't very...
Nope... it's an illusion that the kind of nursing you do in school clinicals is the only kind of nursing that is out there. You could be a school nurse, for example. They deal with vaccination/health...
I take melatonin over the counter to make me sleepy when I need to sleep. If you try it... try it out while you're not working yet to see how it effects you. On my days off... I sleep both a little...
Hey... you can always run away to another country if it doesn't work out with the IPN. That'll always be an option. Might as well see what happens with IPN first though. Also, want to add that with...
Here was a good thread... check out the comments. The second comment explained a lot about the IPN process. One thing I would add is I have read from others in the past to ask about seeing a different...
You should repost in the recovery forum on here because you will find nurses in the IPN now that can give you good info on IPN. I do hear IPN is a pain. I am hoping that supposed $30K was including...
I don't know how to tell this this hun but what just happened is considered just as bad to the BON as testing positive for marijuana, cocaine, etc. I have personal experience with this but I actually...
Plan ahead... whoever makes your assignment needs to keep this in mind. I don't know if you ever have some nonsurgical patients or patients who haven't been asking for much pain meds. Would it be...

Well let me clarify a bit. If you improperly wasted narcotics, for example, they can getcha on that alone. I have seen "improper waste of narcotics" written publicly on nurse's licenses. This is...

I don't know what state you're from but I have seen people try to fight the system and end up getting severely punished, whereas here I am totally guilty but in my state's program and have a clean...

OK...let me try to explain this again. In no way do I mean that there are no medical GI benefits of protonix. What I am trying to say is that I've seen it prescribed to people that are there for...
There is no national employment history background check... except for government jobs. Somehow the government can find this stuff out (if you omit a job). I guess the government has access to your...

Hi there. I'm from another state and they run a bit differently. I think no matter which state you have to go for an assessment by a psychiatrist and get some treatment... either inpt or outpt rehab....
Yeah I mean it just isn't worth it. Even if you think it isn't tested for you could be wrong. There was someone on here who was busted for it. Even if they don't test for it now they could always test...
