2. Troponin not flagged as critical?

   Rebelution replied to snickers17's topic in Medical-Surgical

   I've seen this happen, where the lab did not call a positive troponin, but yet called a "panic chlamydia" result. I've also seen our lab delay results, even if you and the physician call asking for...

   Rebelution replied to KrispyRN1's topic in Advanced Practice

   One of my friends recently graduated NP school and took a dermatology job. She said that her pay exceeds six figures, that her paychecks "doubled" from when she was a BSN RN (which is very recent) and...

   Rebelution replied to J89Mike's topic in General Nursing

   If you still have time left to do it, go to HR and change your tax witholdings to claim 99 for your last check so that it doesn't get taxed. Where I live, you can actually do this about 5-6 times per...

10. New Trauma Nurse Help

    Rebelution replied to Mariah87's topic in Emergency

    TNCC will help a lot, also if you could sit in on an Advanced Trauma Life Support Class (ATLS), that will be helpful. Ask if you can keep your TNCC book and then self study it even after you've passed...

    Part of the problem too is that people aren't happy being BSN nurses, so they're going the NP route in hopes that it will be better and that they can salvage their career. Some people legit want to be...

13. Triage Nurses: what are your favorite phrases to document?

    Rebelution replied to nerdgrl's topic in Emergency

14. ICU vs IR

    Rebelution replied to Irisheyesrn13's topic in General Specialties

    Has anyone here used their BSN to get a non-nursing specific masters degree, like an MBA, etc? I'm looking into getting a masters, but NP or CRNA aren't for me. I don't want to do education or...
