    K. Everly replied to Guest 1191353's topic in School, College Programs

    Daily Rant Thread

    K. Everly replied to Raven Sierra's topic in General Nursing

    She definitely waited until I responded to her text to post her little BS message on FB. Less than 30 minutes after. Next time I won't just take something without asking for something in return -...

    New grad stress, thinking about moving units?

    K. Everly replied to rn92077's topic in First Year After Licensure

    First of all, I'm so sorry you are feeling this way and I can definitely relate. I took a job as an inpatient rehab (IPR) & med-surg tele float when I first started (I'm a new RN too)....

    Fake Nursing School Scammed Me

    K. Everly replied to Soy Dora's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for explaining. I did check the NCLEX pass rate back when I was choosing a school, so hopefully others can at least do that to see if they are making a wise decision. 16k is a lot to throw down...

    Fake Nursing School Scammed Me

    K. Everly replied to Soy Dora's topic in General Nursing

    So, out of curiosity because I honestly know nothing about it, someone like OP could get their diploma in FL, get licensed in FL, but not be able to get a license in another state by endorsement? When...

    Advice? The Ole' Bait & Switch (bonus shift)

    K. Everly replied to K. Everly's topic in General Nursing

    In case more context is at all helpful, the way bonus shift on my floor works, which is really unconventional (and not ideal), is that you sign-up for the bonus shift but it's basically another...

    Daily Rant Thread

    K. Everly replied to Raven Sierra's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a brand new RN & this really upsets me! I was like "am I right to find this frustrating or is this just another thing that is 'normal' for his profession?" How can I ensure this doesn't...

    Fake Nursing School Scammed Me

    K. Everly replied to Soy Dora's topic in General Nursing

    I'm really sorry this happened! I've never heard of such a thing but can absolutely confirm that before I got my BSN and became an RN, I had no idea what an ATT (authorization to test) even meant, or...

    Please Help Me! I’m Over It!!

    K. Everly replied to Nurse5678's topic in Private Duty

    It sounds like you could use a pick-me-up in your skills of assertion. The mother may be VERY defensive, but you are the nurse, you have a professional duty to discuss certain matters with her....

    K. Everly replied to OrlandoNursing's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    My pinning ceremony was also graduation. I was in an accelerated BSN program for students who already had a previous non-nursing bachelor's degree. We wore our cap and gown, and also our nursing...

    Leaving nursing

    K. Everly replied to Peachykay's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Definitely. You don't have to stay in the profession if it doesn't even bring you joy anymore. If it does bring you joy and you're an experiencing nurse who knows you're making a difference,...

    Returning to California from another state?

    K. Everly replied to Quickstepper's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I don't personally have experience with this but have heard of others who have. It's not impossible and I know people have done it, it just requires swapping from one alternative to discipline program...

    App for managing work/home schedule, shopping lists, tasks, etc.

    K. Everly replied to RNrhythm's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I use my icloud calendar so it syncs to my macbook, iphone, and apple watch. I believe if you aren't an apple user, Google calendars is very similar. My husband also shared apple calendars with me too...

    Scrub jacket to match Figs scrubs?

    K. Everly replied to rileyjw90's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I don't own any figs so I can't speak to that. But my scrub jacket is not the same brand as any of my scrubs, just the same color. I went with the jacket that would be the warmest and most comfortable...

    Are you a Nurse just for the money or do you do it from your heart?

    K. Everly replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in General Nursing

    I show up to my shifts for my patients, not just the money. I chose nursing because I feel called to it, and I love to serve others and nurture them. I work for money and don't just volunteer because...

    K. Everly replied to Newt123's topic in Nurses Recovery

    The Physical and Emotional Demands of Being a Burn Nurse

    K. Everly replied to MackenzieHolbrook's topic in Burn

    Wow. This sounds like one of the most emotional floors I could ever imagine working on. When you mentioned extubating a pt and seeing them be told their family member or pet died crushed me. Thank you...

    Weird Question: Are All Hospital Nurses Wearing Scrub Caps Now?

    K. Everly replied to K. Everly's topic in General Nursing
