    Does anyone ever feel guilty about calling off?

    How can you take care of someone else if you're not taking care of yourself? That's what I ask myself. If you're sick, burnt out, having family issues, etc... always put those things first and don't...

    Funny Question

    A man and a woman going to dinner alone? That is not a good idea especially if either of you are married. It is not rude to say NO to an offer like that. Anything he has to say can easily be said on...

    My mental health is plummeting from my job

    It sounds like you already have the answer to your question. You said working night shift has you seeing your husband less, losing weight, etc... If that's the case, then a day shift job may be a...

    Staff Treating Patients Poorly Or Am I Too Sensitive

    I was wondering about this also. I currently work at a State psych hospital but it definitely would NOT have been my choice for a first nursing job because you don't even get to do much "nursing"....

    Why do you visit allnurses.com?

    I started coming on this site for inspiration about my nursing career. Healthcare hadn't been what I thought it would be. So I was hoping to hear from others who had a similar background and to see...

    Mandated to work Saturday?

    Like others said, it seems like the best way to handle this is to let your boss know that you and your husband had plans and see if one of the other RN's can work the weekend for you in exchange for...

    WOW 2 days in

    Sometimes you have to get "thrown in the fire" as they say but you can make it through it. Trust your instincts. Trust your nursing knowledge. Learn from your fellow nurses. And ask questions. Take...

    Why Black History is Important in Nursing Education

    OK. I don't get on here all the time but I just happened to be on this morning and I saw this post which I thought would be a good conversation and instead it became this whole ordeal. ☹️ Where...

    Why Black History is Important in Nursing Education

    Why are you guys going back and forth with someone with the screen name "guest965675"? smh Anyone who argues against learning about the achievements of black people is clearly out of touch and...

    I Did It! I Earned My Master's in Nursing Informatics

    Thanks for sharing your story. It certainly is challenging going back to school when you're a non-traditional student and dealing with work and family in the midst of it. I'm glad you made it through....

    Can LPN get IT job?

    Thank you for the advice. I know I ultimately will probably need to get my RN but I'm leaning towards getting a Masters in Healthcare Administration first. As I've been reading more and more posts on...

    Do male nurses face gender bias in nursing education?

    I've been a male nurse for 4 years. In the jobs I've had, each one has been more than welcoming of me coming on board. Some places even said they were looking for a male nurse. Maybe the initial...

    LVN Wants Weekends Off Job

    The only way I've found to not work weekends has been to work in clinics as a nurse. I have worked in an Allergy clinic and a Pain Management clinic. The pay was less than what I would make in the...

    Giving notice/start date

    If they gave you an offer letter, they usually have a start date attached with it. If you're not clear on the start date, it's okay to ask. They can't make you start on a date that you don't agree...

    New to assisted living is this normal

    I don't want to discourage you but unfortunately, assisted living facilities seem to have gotten worse over the years. From my experiences being a charge nurse as an LPN, if you have a good group of...
