  1. Shoulder/back injury

    Nursestef2 posted a topic in Health, Stress Management

    Hi, PCT/nursing student here. So I recently began a job on a Rehab unit which requires a lot more lifting than I am used to. Yesterday when I went home, I started having constant back and shoulder...

    Congrats on the interview! How did you find out? Did they just tell you or did you ask about this specifically

    Nursestef2 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi all, I am a senior graduating this May and have begun the job hunt-I already have an interview. I've been doing some research and apparently a lot of hospitals have new grads sign 2 year...

  4. 2 year contracts????

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thanks so much for your response! I actually got hired at my first job since this and luckily there is not a contract/sign on bonus. But I will definitely watch for this in the

  5. Not sure how to go about job hunt?

    Nursestef2 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Hi, everyone I posted a similar thread before but I don't think I did a great job of fully explaining my situation. So I am about to graduate with my BSN and have already started applying jobs and...

  7. 2 year contracts????

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in First Year After Licensure

    That's the plan! I just got in touch with a couple people who recently got hired at the same place and they said they did not have to sign a long term contract, which is good to hear. Congrats on the...

  8. 2 year contracts????

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't wanna work for a year and leave. My spouse is going to an amazing grad school in a different state and I'm going to be moving. I have had 2 CNA jobs, an internship at a top hospital, and a 4.0...

  9. Cleveland Clinic VS University Hospital

    Nursestef2 replied to A.Ramos's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I know this is an old post, but I was just wondering what the contracts are like for new grads at UH. Are you committed to working on your unit for 1-2 years, etc? I'm interested in

  10. So did I get the job or not?

    Nursestef2 posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Hi, everyone! I am a senior year BSN student and I interviewed for a job about 2 weeks ago. After I applied for this job, I was asked to schedule a phone interview, then immediately following this...

  11. So did I get the job or not?

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Ugh, that's terrible. I feel like you should always get an answer either way if you interviewed. No, I haven't stopped looking for jobs completely, but I'm also not in a huge hurry since I don't...

  12. Dealing with rude patients

    Nursestef2 posted a topic in General Nursing

    So of course I have dealt with rude patients from time to time. I never take this personally because I know that they are in a difficult spot. I have always been able to gradually build trust and have...

  13. Dealing with rude patients

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for your suggestions, your post was helpful. Sadly, I was repeatedly assigned to this patient since I first posted and the charge nurse eventually gave up and let the patient pick who they...

  14. Dealing with rude patients

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in General Nursing

    I guess it's mostly because I'm still young and in school and haven't had any issues to this extent before. Although some much older, much more experienced nurses have also expressed these feelings....

  15. Shoulder/back injury

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in Health, Stress Management

    You bring up a good point about the job description. I believe it said 35 lbs. Generally one person will help out, but I haven't seen any 70 lb patients! I am only 95 lbs myself, so I'm definitely...

  16. Nursing school burnout

    Nursestef2 replied to Nursestef2's topic in Health, Stress Management

    No, I haven't. It's just too early on in the internship. I wish I just took a break from work and focused on classes for the summer. And yes, I have looked into therapy a little bit. Thanks for your...

  17. Nursing school burnout

    Nursestef2 posted a topic in Health, Stress Management

    Hi all, I am going into my senior year of nursing school. I've always enjoyed it, have worked hard, and have not struggled at all in my courses. I've enjoyed clinical, too. I worked at a hospital...
