    And doing well at a per diem job may lead to a full-time

  4. New Graduate

    Is there a glut of nurses there? Years and years ago a friend worked there and she found it very difficult to get a job there (despite experience) and the pay was horrible. Why? Because it's such a...

  7. Trump's 'religious conscience'

    Actually, if you read some of the Evangelical Christian sites they do want to take away many forms of birth control; the pill and the IUD because fertilization can occur but these forms of bc will...
  8. You will always second guess yourself and wonder if you did everything PERFECTLY, unless you've done a million codes. Your patient is alive, you did good. Now keep these things in mind for the next...

    I think you spelled "the right"
  10. In Need of Some Advice Please

    I understand rush hour but would you hit a lot of traffic with the hours for 12 hour shifts? Most people don't have to be at work at 0700, nor do they leave at 1930. I would check this out in person...

  12. Got Written Up, Cant Stop Thinking About It

    I'll bet JC would be very interested in the fact that no report is given prior to patient transfer. Even an anonymous report. Your BON might be interested

    I'm so sorry to hear this. A friend's sister lost her son several years ago to drug use and about a year ago another set of good friends lost their son. He had a daughter ( my friends have custody)...
  17. Alzheimers mention

    If Pfizer really thought Enbrel would work on Alzheimer's I can guarantee they would have spent the $80M. Do you have any idea how much they'd earn if it worked? Waaaay more than what they put into...

  21. Worried About My Back

    NICU!
  22. Please think long and hard about this. While I agree 12 hour shifts are long, and you can't really do much after them, 8 hours can be long too, especially on Fridays! I thought I could do so much...
  23. Difficulty with coworker

    I must have missed where she says she posted on the clock. And who here can say they've NEVER done personal things on the clock? It's not out of the realm of possibility that the OP head a few...
  24. The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    Part of the problem (imo) is that people aren't willing to move for a job. My father moved 3 times for jobs (twice transfer in the company, once a new job) and I was in the military and did the same....
