  1. Anyone gotten a non-nursing masters?

    Rebelution posted a topic in Nursing Career

    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...

  2. Seeking Fall 2020 Pediatric Preceptor

    Rebelution replied to Freckledkorican's topic in Advanced Practice

    See if you have an Area Health Education Center (AHEC) regional office somewhere around you. I called a minimum of one provider/office every day for four months, and finally when I just happened to...

  3. 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...

  4. Starting NP Salary? Help!?

    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...

  5. Resignation, What To Do With Accrued PTO??

    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...

  6. Futile ressusitation

    Rebelution replied to amzyRN's topic in Emergency

    But I bet that Arctic Sun company made a lot of cash while the gettin' was

  7. When you thought it was patients you needed to watch...

    Rebelution replied to smf0903's topic in General Nursing

    Agreed. Hopefully they go after him (legally speaking) regardless of his "retirement"

  8. MINNESOTA ER Nurses

    Rebelution replied to RNWillmeng's topic in Emergency

    In my experience, the personalities and characteristics that tend to go with successful, seasoned ER nurses and doctors aren't generally very different in various regions. Regardless of area, there...

  9. Triage scenario, opinions needed.

    Rebelution replied to Jasel's topic in Emergency

    You can't hold them, and without a blood test there is no proof of intoxication vs. somebody on the street bumped into them and spilled their Miller onto the patient. Besides, the contradiction that...

  10. Methadone clinic job offer

    Rebelution replied to CardiacRN#1's topic in Addictions

    Yeah, who cares if it fits your lifestyle and you like it? I'd go for it and not worry about

  11. 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...

  12. Oversupply of Nurse Practitioners

    Rebelution replied to guest416560's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    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. How long before I feel comfortable?

    Rebelution replied to sharkbacon's topic in Emergency

    At least a year, and then some. I don't mean that in a negative

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

    Rebelution replied to nerdgrl's topic in Emergency

    Some of the funnier ones are "pain 10/10, eating chips" etc. Not triage related, but one time a patient had left without telling anyone and the nurse wrote "patient not in room, Mediao magazine on...

  15. ICU vs IR

    Rebelution replied to Irisheyesrn13's topic in General Specialties

    I'd take IR over just about anything that you can do in a hospital. I've worked IR and it's one of the best gigs I ever had, only left it due to relocation. The only thing that can suck is call, but...

  16. Inpatient Boarders?

    Rebelution replied to EDnurseNY's topic in Emergency

    My facility is really bad for this. It's not uncommon to have literally every single room filled with inpatient boarding, and be intubating people in the hallway, moving inpatients into the hallway...

  17. Should a new grad go into med/surg or into the specialty that they would love to be in?

    Rebelution replied to StudentRNmt's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Go do what you want. If you really want it, you'll learn it and do fine if you're willing to deal with the ups and downs of learning something that might be more complicated. The advice to "go do...
