    Imustbedreaming replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    How do you handle this on your resume and job application though? I had this scenario twice in the last 3 yrs while getting through BSN. Once 3 yrs ago and once recently. I gave notice within a month...

  6. The Worst Interview of My Life! Ever!

    Imustbedreaming replied to Forest2's topic in General Nursing

    Imustbedreaming replied to Amanda J's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I went through orientation and I did not see anything about giving serious thought to the current nursing environment (which is only getting worse) or issues involving a student's diagnosis of anxiety...

    Imustbedreaming replied to Amanda J's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Again, these role expectations need to be defined thoroughly before taking students' money for tuition to become a nurse - during the approval

    Imustbedreaming replied to Amanda J's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    It's tragic and unjust because the environment of nursing today actually creates these problems for all healthcare workers. I don't think a person should have to have the physicality and mentality of...

  10. Do I share my medical history as part of my story to become a nurse?

    Imustbedreaming replied to LeviY's topic in General Nursing

    I think all nurses/everyone needs to buy a legal plan through Legal Zoom or other sources for these kinds of questions. Know your rights and make decisions based on sound legal advice. There seems to...

  11. Next Day Off

    Imustbedreaming posted a topic in General Nursing

    How do you feel on your day off after working a shift? Today is my day off after working yesterday. Throughout my career the next day off is brutal. My muscles ache and I have such fatigue. I heard of...

  12. Next Day Off

    Imustbedreaming replied to Imustbedreaming's topic in General Nursing

    Exactly, Horseshoe. I start feeling the body pain and fatigue 30 mins after work or when I get home. It's like my body knows it's safe to relax. Unfortunately, I can hardly function the next 24 hrs. I...

  14. Single mother working 12 hours night shift

    Imustbedreaming replied to NolaBCbabeRN's topic in General Nursing

    Some of the sitters on care.com or sittercity.com also offer before school care. I'd just make sure you feel safe for your child, are happy with them, and that they are flexible for your schedule....

  15. Single mother working 12 hours night shift

    Imustbedreaming replied to NolaBCbabeRN's topic in General Nursing

    I totally sympathize. You may find someone on a service like care.com. When you get a chance, I'd switch to days and/or look for homehealth or 8-5 clinic job. Homehealth charting takes away free time...

  16. Leaving federal job for nursing school

    Imustbedreaming replied to guest62419's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nursing has a lot to offer a young person with no children or dependents. They can travel and get paid more after a year in the hospital. The M-F cushier jobs are rare and rely on networking/politics....

  17. Leaving federal job for nursing school

    Imustbedreaming replied to guest62419's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I vote no, especially if you do not have childcare support. Nursing school is tough enough but nursing right now is too tough and frustrating. Im a single parent with little support and the energy it...

    Imustbedreaming replied to NURS5870's topic in Activism, Healthcare
