Has anyone heard of this? Its saying that basically ANY healthcare worker has the right as of July 22nd to refuse care to a patient due to the healthcare worker's moral beliefs or religion. I'm so confused. First of all we as healthcare workers are h...

Hello all! I am currently in my last class before i start the nursing program and i purchased the eBook for class. I'm having a hard time reading on the computer, i can use my phone but i find it kind of small. My question is if i invest in a tablet ...

Hi Nursing2019! I've been with the clinic for a few years now and I love it. I don't know much about the nurse residency program as i am just a medical assistant so I cant give you an opinion on that specifically. I can tell you that almost all of my...

Seems i stand corrected, its seems like a lot of people have had really good experiences as a CNA on here. The experiences I had were horrible, loved the residents and patients but thats about it. Anyways what ever you choose good luck ?

So I've read that this is going to extend further then just abortion. Sign language interpreters can refuse to translate information about birth control. EMTs can refuse to treat. A caregiver can refuse to help dress a disabled transgender person in ...

I feel like yeah it sucks for the company and all of the workers because the hiring and training process can take forever. But i agree with Jedrnurse, I would rather have someone leave during orientation or as soon as they figure out that job isn't f...

I'm not sure, I don't think they do. I haven't been a CNA in years.

Fruit of the Earth Vitamin E cream. Its literally a miracle worker.

I work outpatient and were expected to do this. Not to that extreme though, we don't write the expiration dates. We each have rooms assigned to us and every month we check the expiration dates of everything and write down what has expired.

Khan academy! They are very useful and its free. Also Pinterest, i know that sounds weird but you can find almost anything on there. I would print out the different systems i found on there and put them on my binder. Best of luck ?

Really? My college encourages us to retake classes if we can get a better grade because it helps our GPA. Is there anyway to talk to a counselor to see file an appeal to get some bad grades off from classes you don't need. My college also does that a...

I would look into retaking a few classes to try and get higher grades in them. Or taking classes that you would need to graduate but not necessarily be in the program for, such as an A&P class or a math. this will help your GPA a lot. Good luck!

i'm taking A&P 2 this summer. 4 days a week 6pm-10pm, I know it'll be a lot on top or a full time job but it'll be worth it! So will your class. It'll be done and out of the way and you'll be able to focus on other classes since they won't all be...

I grew up in a very strict sheltered home. My mom was a single mother of three and my whole family, aunts, cousins, grandpa all had a history of addiction so she wanted to keep my brothers away from it all. I understand what and why she did the thing...

Don't know if anyone has seen this but she has been sent over 1,700 decks of cards in the mail ?

New pulmonary pediatric patient being seen by her doctor. As they were leaving 5 cop cars zoomed into the parking lot along side two undercovers where they arrested her mom who oddly drove a u-haul to their appointment....? Felt so bad for the patien...

Sometimes you can work as a CNA in a hospital, but thats usually when you already have experience. Those shifts tend to be more flexible too, three 12s instead of the normal doctor office hours. Daily tasks as a MA: Assess my doctor's schedule every ...

I would take to your employer about your situtation. Most understand that you do have a life outside of work and emergencies do happen. If they won't budge on it, I would take it even higher up as it seems necessary. Also I would give your family and...
