    New Nurse..Change employer or career? HELP

    NurseBlaq replied to NewToThis11's topic in General Nursing

    Don't give up nursing, get a new job or transfer to another unit. The problem on your floor is management. It's a pet peeve of mine to see staff sitting while another is running around like a mad...

    Do you have a side hustle?

    NurseBlaq replied to Mrsvirgomama's topic in General Nursing

    No but I want to start a YouTube channel and keep procrastinating because I don't know what I want to focus on. I craft, upcycle furniture, crochet, and review/recap movies/TV shows but I don't want...

    NurseBlaq replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Who in administration approved those bootleg doors knowing they didn't work? They need to come in and be the 4th person since they paid for a nonworking product. I despise reckless management. Let you...

    Ohio Hospital Fires 23 After Fentanyl Overdose Deaths

    NurseBlaq replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    Wrong. You are an adult and responsible for your own license and practice. It is your duty to question orders if/when a patient may be harmed. If you don't, you've failed in your duty as a nurse. If a...

    How NOT to Recruit an NP

    NurseBlaq replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Sounds to me like she doesn't want to fill the position, she's just going through the motions. Either she's pushing people away and waiting for a particular person or she's pushing people away so she...

    JUUL CEO Apologizes to Parents for Teen Epidemic

    NurseBlaq replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    Empty apology. They knew what they were doing. Also, where are the parents and why are they not raising their children to not smoke? But I digress, I've seen parents buy this crap for their children....

    At this point you're arguing for the sake of being right. The hospital said he violated their policy. Stop. They fired individuals and thoroughly investigated Dr Death and stuck by their rulings....

    NurseBlaq replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    The nurses have active licenses now, doesn't mean they'll make it out of this unscathed. Ditto for the pharmacists. The Dr won't be so lucky in OH. Also, I know how palliative care/hospice works,...

    NurseBlaq replied to ERN19's topic in General Nursing

    You're still learning We've all had those moments. I've been a nurse a long time and I still have them. The key is to learn from your mistakes so you don't make them

    The Worst Interview of My Life! Ever!

    NurseBlaq replied to Forest2's topic in General Nursing

    That's crazy but can I go out on a limb here and say maybe they were testing you because it was the nurse educator position you were applying for? I'm thinking they wanted to see how you would do in...

    Employment drug screening

    NurseBlaq replied to VampireBaby's topic in General Nursing

    A few places didn't do pre-employment drug screens but I always assume you can be tested at any time. Just don't do drugs, and if you have scheduled drugs be sure you have a prescription for them or...

    NurseBlaq replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    If that was the case, no one would be fired, licenses wouldn't be lost, and he wouldn't be facing jail time. Was his documentation not accurate or did he not tell families the whole truth? Did they...

    See, there's that passive aggressive condescension again. No, I wasn't involved. Again, for the umpteeenth time, it's more than one nurse. The fact you keep alluding it it being a singular nurse or...

    I get that. It doesn't excuse the fact that he singularly decided it was time to be Dr Kevorkian without consulting the patients and/or their families. I'm well versed in palliative and hospice

    You're talking in circles. You can't say they're bullied, need to take a stand, go along to get along, and shouldn't be blamed but should take a stand all at the same time. Are they weak and excused...
