2. TWU Anyone?

   ICUyall posted a topic in NP Students

   I’m curious if anyone is in the online FNP program at TWU (Denton), and preferably further along than the Summer 2020 cohort? I just started the program 2 weeks ago, and so far I’m really not pleased with what I see in the program, and I would like t...

4. To be a coward, or to be a fool?

   ICUyall replied to MsJenn_The_RN's topic in COVID

   I can totally relate to your struggle. Fellow ICU nurse, and I’m having the same issues. I love being an ICU nurse, BUT, I never agreed to put my life in mortal peril in order to take care of a stranger. And, unlike the sanctimonious sentiments of th...

8. COVID19 and NP school Woes?

   ICUyall posted a topic in COVID

   I find myself at a complete loss. I’ve been an ICU nurse for 7 years, and I love what I do. But, I have been on the fence of what to do from very early on in this COVID19 disaster. My hospital system started rationing PPE very early on, and with each...

9. Hospital Terminating RNs for Travel Nursing

   ICUyall replied to traumaqueen1993's topic in COVID

   I’m at a point where literally nothing surprises me. I think what your hospital is doing is beyond shameful! My hospital system, though scandalous in many ways, is allowing individuals to take travel assignments in the hot zones without losing their ...
