    Just Say “NO” to Nurse Staffing Laws

    Hire enough nurses and just deal with it. I'Vve seen so much crap hospitals buy that never got used in the OR. Eventually hospitals will become dangerous places after the entire staff becomes burnt...

    Why is BSN required for CRNA?

    There are no bridge programs to obtain a BSN while in CRNA since there is no way to go to CRNA school until one has BSN (few exceptions with BS majors) AND

    Are boundaries ok?

    It's not your job to staff the floor. That's someone else's job. I'm heartened that a new grad knows to ask the question. and we are all giving you

    Why is BSN required for CRNA?

    But, in addition to my snark, I think they want people who have a well rounded education in the nursing sciences. Even if one never practices public health nursing , having a semester of seeing what...
  6. No kidding? I never knew that. Thanks for letting me know because I didn't know that before. Now I can enjoy being more enlightened . I often repeat "They're so cute when they're young" but that...

    Why is BSN required for CRNA?

    I'll bet the majority of RN's here are not doing anything close to what they thought they would do while they were undergrads. You guys are so cute when you're
  8. No, thank YOU , Klone, for picking JUST the right word. I was busy laughing about nursings' failure to pay enough educational hours devoted to molarity- as if no one here took high school chemistry....

    Plant-based (vegan) mandate for NY hospitals

    So throw some broccoli and baked potatoes in on the menu? Why is this so radical and burdensome? Do you think it could be the Deep

    Millennial Nurses Have Issues

    Older boomer here and I agree with you; younger people are less willing to be oppressed at work and that is a healthy choice. There is just no downside to refusing to be burnt out shells by the time...
  12. If a nurse is in so much pain that they must take a narcotic continuously, they are too sick to work as a nurse. No employer would want it known that one of their staff was working with a positive...

    Oversupply of Nurse Practitioners

    Corporate anesthesia groups are constantly being taken over by other groups (sometimes hostile). The newer group never gives you MORE:) My old group had a difficult time recruiting both MDA's and...
  14. The lady was dying when she came in the door and nothing would have made a difference. Levophed usually means leave them dead" because it is a last line measure but actually increases oxygen...

    Leaving before 1 year? Don't know what to do..

    The first year is miserable for EVERYONE:) If you are doing it right, si much time is spent second guessing. Yes, your staffing is terrible and I'm sorry any hospital does that to their nurse but...
  16. I wish we could return to the 5 year program that Columbia and Cornell had in the 70's. Two years if pre-nursing anywhere and then 3 years on the floor being charged with diploma rates since the...

    Why bedside nursing didn't work for me....

    "Everyone" in the profession does not insist that a med surgery year is a must. There are multiple threads here on AN on the subject. However, you got the experience which probably helped you get...

    Acute Care NP Schedule?

    If the OP is asking.the question, I'm sure they will be disappointed in the
  19. I don't know any CRNA's who call themselves anesthesiologists....the term is NURSE anesthesiologist. That would be fraudulent. After all, nurses consistently rate as the most honest profession and...

    Looking for advice on possible field change...

    Keep applying. And looking back on NY state hospital experience, it would have been a fascinating experience if I were more mature and less stressed out (working 20 hours a week also). So many new...

    Looking for advice on possible field change...

    I thought I would like psych when I was in undergrad but having to be in a state hospital locked ward changed my mind:) Before you start to invest your time and money in a psych master's, I'd get a...

    Forced Organ Donations from Living Donors???!!!!

    We aren't dependent on cheap labor as much as buying lots of cheap crap we really don't need. Read the labels before you buy. But good luck buying an umbrella or thousands of other items that no...
  24. I used to be one of those real blunt New Yorkers. A lot of it was work related - the constant stress and fatigue were major factors - but a lot of it was just NYC socialization. I moved to the...
