Hi I’m taking the infamous Nurs 4325 and with the infamous Dr.Dobrowski UTA. I was doing good until I bombed the first RAC with a 60 . I figure there is something the he isn’t showing the class . If anyone took his class and have help on how to approach his tests that would be great .

Well obviously you sound like a normal nurse with common sense . No your not crazy , but this going to sound crazy . This is nursing everywhere . It's unsafe , under-trained, understaffed , and they stab you in the back so bad even judas would be like “sweet jesus” Just quit and learn something from it . you be glad u did and your not alone .We have all been there they are using u .

What in gods name is this nonsense . Ive worked with nurses I have hated and dont trust . But at the end of the day its about the pt. I ensured that we both did nothing but the best as the pt advocate. then start to hate them once I clock out . By law under the nurse practice act in texas . it states we must work together regardless of person blah blah blah . Plus only her preceptor should be instructing her . Tbh you have case for bulling and need to sue tbh . read your rights Arrogant people have a right to a job and a dream too . All this trust bs . I fought for a doc that was being bullied becuase he had a lambo and a degree from oxford and was a tad bit upidty , but he was good and he deserved to be upidty, he accomplished more than any doctor there and nurse .No nurse trusts another nurse 100% and shouldnt . I bet I can prove my point give a med that some else pulled ..... thought so .

He had a preceptor just sounds like not a very goodone

yeah he was wrong to throw woman under the bus . The gender thing isnt an issue . I think its more of psychological issue with nursing . We dont communicate well and have different expectations of each other . and some people just dont take their lexapro lol ? but no its a psych ward out there

Only seen it once in cath lab during a code stemi . understandable due to mothers are huge part of the staff . but yeah no . A once in 20 years thing not a once aweek thing .

Naw I think you did what any person with your experience would do . I mean ask yourself was it my PT ? No Why was my more experienced preceptor gone when all this happened ? this is part of my training ? SMH ?‍♂️ just take it with a grain of salt . Some ER nurses are special birds for sure . take as a learning experience for your pts . Put yeah not your fault it was your tele tech / charge nurse / that pts nurse job . Stop being hard on yourself . Do me a favor after working there for a year and a half switch jobs youll thank me . life gets better. man

lm Gonna say it now becareful ED is like being in that one movie GET OUT ! People tend to be psychopaths and always have crazy agendas . There are some great ED nurses but the ratio from bad to good is high . And its all about politics . Its a ? show . I once didnt get a job becuase my nurse preceptor precepted my manager and made her feel inadequate she told me this in an interview and Im sure I didnt get the job for it lol . I have won not one but two lawsuits for unrightfull treatment in the ER and about to get one for blackballing in texas . I always get along but I see my peers bully alot of people . My line is unlawful care . I will blow up a bridge if I am putting someone at risk . I will call who ever I need . I saved 2 lives and got 2 lawsuits for the wrongfull termination of doing so . ED is not a stable place right now . Take it as a lesson to beware of people in ED and beware of the law . Plus its your preceptors fault why are other people teaching you where is his butt at ?

Beaware their are some shady characters . Im a male so a high five or a popcicle is all I give lol . Yeah I would just get another job and BE aware people are nuts and will make all accusations to not PAY cheapskates . I remember I had a pt that needed emergency surgery with no insurance that didnt want a bill leave becuase she said I said something about not waking up from anesthesia . It wasnt even me it was the Anethesiologist lol . I told them it wasnt me I didnt have a hat and You and him signed the consent so ? lol

Very much true . And my millennial colleagues lack the leadership to see when they are being used and manipulated. Time and time I see them get shmoozed it to doing illegal practices and GO WITH IT . Shocking . I have always learned to listen to my tenure nurses they been there longer and can tell me what rights nurses have lost over time at a job at that hospital . The way I think hospitals see us is that we are playing their game on their board . We have to do whats best for them not the pt. Thats my number one problem .

believe me I worked at the number one ranked hospital in texas and then to the number two ranked hospital . I saw worse problems job wise not pt wise at both than at level 3 trauma hospitals I use to work at . Then when I found out that ranking only pertains to what specialized services are available in that system and not ranked on healthcare ratings or pt satisfaction I learned that the rankings are just fake rating to get more pts to come to them . I have worked enough and have everything I want . I dont have kids So I dont have starving mouths to feed , and Im not hungry so lol. My heart goes out to the mothers locked in to bad hospitals due to their children and hospitals know this . Im taking my time when picking a job and Im educating myself on how to interview to get better jobs. I even learned how to bring up the fact that a hospital is setting their expectations to high on a job causing it to be vacant too long and have high turn over . I have had a few call me back and tell me I was right and that if I wanted the job . I declined becuase I also found out that they dont care about the pts just by my questions I asked so . I guess you do need to learn how to interview

To have female colleagues think that Im one of them . In terms of joining their mean girl clique or the clique attempting to mean girl me . I always keep it professional and hold them to professionalism . Coming from a family that contains lawyers , a politician, and a judge I better follow the law . I always like the look on the female bullies face once I treaten them and the hospital with a lawsuit and my only witness being the pt . lol God why are nurses mean to each other . I feel that when U have problems with the male nurses or doctors I feel if you talk to them with confidence and ask what their issues are that usually comes to terms . A come to jesus meeting as we put ot in the south .

Yes unfortunately I havent been in the game that long either going on 8 yrs . As I talk to nurses that nursed from 15-30 + yrs ago hospitals just keeps adding more work to the nurses . It puts a strain on things . At job interviews I learned to trim the fat . I find that Hospitals are less educated , they are less safe , management has less and less experience . The job turn over is very High . My last manager has changed jobs 3 times while I have been employed at 1 in only 1 yr. I check in on my old jobs nobody is there everyone is new . This what happens when corporations take over . they just care about the money and not the product . Thats the problem .

Yeah I wouldn’t worry if you have Rxs for the meds . THC is no biggy shouldnt show up if its occational . But yeah all seems kinda of shady situation . Tbh the facility wont report you most likely I seen higher than whitney houston not get reported along with a side of just dont waste any!!! meds with them lol . But yeah only you know the truth . If there is a problem and dont get reported I had have a talk with your doctor and see pain management. Sometimes they over prescribe

This is a blessing . I bet you'll never do this again . You'll get better and ask your preceptor if they wasted that medication . They could be dopephenes too lol . But yeah your new so stuff happens and like others said your preceptor is suppose to be your eyes and ears . they are partly to blame. I would take it like a grain of salt . When you get more experience youll see some nurses just overreact, dont care , and arent good teachers . I hope the rest of orientation goes well . and Do what I do waste before you go in the room ! and always waste .
