  6. Who gets the write up?

    For any drips, we use no port lines to prevent this. Also, when we switch from perioheral to central lines, we make up completely new lines. I would say both nurses are at
  7. Leaving because of coworker?

    I'd probably see how it goes. Try and set some strict boundaries and do as HR says and report instances as it comes up. Block all you social
  8. RN to LPN

    Depends on your bon? Why not rewrite the Rn
  9. RN in Canada

    You're going to a different country. Part of that is having to play by their rules. Why not transfer within Canada if you don't want to do the nclex? Remember, nclex is just part of the equation going...
  10. RN in Canada

    I am almost certain than my state will require the nclex as part of the licensing process as a foreign nurse. Which study guides/ services have you used to prepare you for the nclex? Learning how to...
  11. ICU Travel Nursing: Switching Specialities?

    Travel nursing expects you to be able to hit the ground running with minimal orientation. The majority of those in a specialty need two years to solidify your practice- perhaps more if you've been...

  16. I accepted the fact nursing isn't for me, what do I do?

    I find you learn the foundations of nursing on school. It's very normal to feel the way you feel at this point on your career and i am sorry your coworkers aren't move supportive. If it makes you feel...
  17. Medical kidnap? Discuss

    I feel that some of the stuff the family did was over stepping their boundaries. However, it makes no sense not to transfer the patient at the family's
  18. TB Chest X-Ray

    The employer gets to set the rules for if they hire you or not. It might not be fair, but unfortunately, that's the way it
  19. Nursing license

    It would be a HIPAA violation. It depends where you misplaced them and who found them I imagine. I don't think any of us can definitively say what your BON will or won't do if you get

  22. How to Support the Next Nursing Generation: The Z's

    I feel that it's always been (or should have been) the nursing professions responsibility to support new nurses in their practice. Isn't it part of the culture of bullying, "I was treated this way...
  23. Choking Hazard

    I want to play! Wrong way medical Center is afraid of the Illuminati, which Purell is clearly a subsidiary of. We all know the Illuminati worship demons, which possess otherwise alert and oriented...
  24. TPN help

    I think you're fine. Unless the generic tpn bags are identical to what the patient is prescribed, you would likely do more harm that way with a different formula. You can also infuse d10 if your tpn...
  25. Missing thopaz boxes

    I have no clue what those are, but you could go the route of our glucometets; make them so big and slow that no one will want to take
