    LMAO! Says the poster following me around just to post subliminal messages in other threads. You did the exact same thing you were fake upset about. So again, you going to address the issue of the...

    Patients & Pet Peeves

    Patients who want to go smoke with a telemetry monitor on. When the MD asks if they have an urge to smoke they say "no, I'm fine" then soon as MD leaves the unit want to go smoke and yells at the...

    New Grad Orientation Contracts

    Have they always been used or is that a new thing in TX? I honestly never heard of an employment contract for new grads outside of sign-on bonuses, tuition/loan reimbursement, and specialty programs...

    Cna incident investigation

    So here you are again with the condescending nonsense but according to someone else you're Mary Magdalene. I said I wasn't addressing this again, so I'm not. Now that you feel superior with that...

    Cna incident investigation

    This! But apparently I'm too stupid to know the basics and standards and my life experiences be damned.

    Cna incident investigation

    Telling someone they don't have a basic understanding of anything is condescending. So now you're going to dictate to me how I interpret something? I can dictate how people address ME including you....

    New Grad Orientation Contracts

    Maybe that's common in your area. What state are you
  9. I don't think I've ever been asked my GPA on an application as a nurse. Anywho, being a CNA before being a nurse is highly helpful. As someone else said, I used to get on the job training from other...

    Cna incident investigation

    I don't lack a basic understanding of anything is that's been the "standard of care" at literally every facility I've been at. You can keep your condescending, passive rude comments to yourself. No...

    nurse doesn't do her charting

    Is the nurse of discussion even doing assessments? I can't believe patients are post surgery and no assessments are being documented and management is blahzay. There has to be physicians raising a...

    New Grad Orientation Contracts

    So you basically had to pay them $300 per month for every month you didn't want to work there? That's

    New Grad Orientation Contracts

    I've never heard or seen new grad contracts. I wouldn't sign one. So if I decide the facility is horrible and I want to leave I have to pay to quit? Or they can give trash schedules, change the...

    Cna incident investigation

    You know nothing! What I know and have experienced for over 20 years of healthcare is not up for debate. You wrote an entire dissertation on lifts but didn't address the topic: OP failed to satisfy...

    Cna incident investigation

    Feds, private sector, and public sector require 2 people. I don't need youtube videos, I've been a CNA in the past and have been an RN almost 15 years. I know what I'm talking about. And why are you...

    Cna incident investigation

    Don't know where you work but 2 people have always been required for every patient in private, public, and federal government facilities I've worked/work at. The patient is a safety risk and unstable,...

    Leaving Nursing

    Have you found another job? Do you like the facility? If so don't call out on your last shifts because it would make you not eligible for rehire. Just bide your time until it's time to

    nurse doesn't do her charting

    I would never leave without charting. Even if I got an admission at shift change I'm charting a quick note about patient received alert and oriented, no distress, blah blah cause you never know what...

    Oversupply of Nurse Practitioners

    In regards to this, what are reputable schools? Most of them appear to be online now, even B&M. I'm debating FNP vs PMHNP. I see new urgent care centers being built on every corner. They're...

    Cna incident investigation

    I disagree. Every lift requires 2 people. That is evident from the CNA requesting help in the beginning. Also, you can't begin to assist then stop midway through because you're worried about a break....

    Peds Acute to School

    I've never done school nursing but do what makes YOU happy. They don't pay your bills nor do they have to live your life. People are always trying to dictate to others how to live because they're...

    Cna incident investigation

    Can but then I can't. You can't start a blood transfusion then say the patient didn't react the first 5 minutes and I was so hungry and missed half my break that I left and they were OK. Only to come...

    Cna incident investigation

    You left when there was a need for 2 CNAs. You started helping then left midway. Your break was not that important. There is no way out of this, you are as guilty as they come. You may definitely lose...
