    She literally answered your question. Again, she literally answered your
  4. Can a RN legally supervise BSN's and MSN's?

    How is OP a nurse and OP doesn't know how this works? Your license determines what you do. Hell, there are APRNs and PAs out there who have bachelor's degrees. Some schools trained APRNs and PAs to...
  5. You hate him? Bro, you knew the patient was in pain, you saw there was no order for pain medication, and then you just bailed. You walked away and dumped it on someone else. Now the next nurse...
  6. Older Nurse no BSN needs advice

    Hey that's awesome! I am super happy to hear you are back in the game. I never worked PACU, only a little bit of recovery at an endoscopy center (it is WAY easier than anything PACU related) and...
  7. Older Nurse no BSN needs advice

    I am sorry you are going through this. I think the BSN requirement is completely unnecessary if you simply want to be a clinical RN. I would much rather take a RN with an ADN and decades of real...
  8. What made you quit?

    What?????? You are per diem. By definition, you do not have the commitment of a core staff nurse, and the hospital does not have the commitment to you to maintain your hours or give you benefits....
  9. What made you quit?

    Part of me has the urge to ask if there is more to the story. Another part of me thinks that this story may just be exactly what it says at face value. I have been astonished by the wild things I have...
  10. Hospice Doctors

    Absolutely Keeping your license is worth way more than the courtesy of a 2 week notice. If I told a jury that I continued to provide unsafe care and obey directions that required violating scope...
  11. Hospice Doctors

    It's up to you about the notice. Personally, if I had to choose between walking away now with an email stating my resignation is effective immediately versus doing a whole 2 week notice, I would...

    A little sketchy? "LITTLE"? I don't think that word means what you think it
  13. Hospice Doctors

    Bro. Think about it. If you are working in a place where your providers and even your own nursing manager have made it so calling the provider is not allowed, AND you have to determine your own...
  14. Hospice Doctors

    Bro. You are determining treatments and writing your own orders, plus a non-licensed person is signing the orders. No bueno for me if this is the expectations put on you. A good argument could...
  15. Medication Route Error

    I know I am SUPER late to the game here but aren't suboxone tablets small-ish? Couldn't you crush the pill and then pour the contents of powdered/finely-granular medication into the mouth...

    I know I am SUPER late to the game here but aren't suboxone tablets small-ish? Couldn't you crush the pill and then pour the contents of powdered/finely-granular into the mouth and under the...
  17. CNA Frustrated with Being the Blame

    PERFECT representation of
  18. CNA Frustrated with Being the Blame

    Unprofessional behavior here as well. The idea that you think that communicating you are rolling your eyes as a viable response to someone trying to give you constructive feedback is very...
  19. Failed Orientation

    Agreed.
  20. Thoughts on nurses who became physicians

    I am sort of similar to you. RN to PA. I remember being on an emergency medicine clerkship in PA school and one nurse treated my very similar to your experience. Some nurses don't like med/PA students...

    More evidence OP wants only to hear from yes-men and has no desire to improve themselves in order to reduce risk of harm to
  22. What is it exactly this manager does? That's my question. If they evaluate/direct/modify/etc anything related to your nursing practice and duties, then hard no. TBH, in a GOOD nursing setting, all...
  23. CNA Frustrated with Being the Blame

    Fine. Don't read our posts, similar to how you clearly haven't read your hospital's policies regarding CNA practice. At this point I am genuinely curious where OP works because I am terrified of the...
  24. CNA Frustrated with Being the Blame

    Even more evidence of poor attitude. If OP was a CNA on my old unit, I would send them home immediately. If they were my student, also get sent home immediately. Attitudes like this are how patients...
  25. CNA Frustrated with Being the Blame

    It is obvious based on OP's response to this post that OP has ZERO desire to improve, wants only responses that validate them, and proritizes their personal feelings over saving patient
