   Best Agencies for FIRST TIME Travelers?

   NurseGuy92 replied to NurseKristen82's topic in Travel

   I'm currently doing my first contract with Aya Healthcare. Everything was pretty easy going with no real issues per say. My biggest complaint is how quickly they reply/respond to me. If they need me to do something, they're on my ***. If I need them ...

   Walden University acute NP online program.

   NurseGuy92 replied to pulchra's topic in NP Students

   I'm just curious, does the training during clinical rotations not suffice for getting your skills that you speak of?

   New Job Stay or Go?

   NurseGuy92 replied to NurseGuy92's topic in General Nursing

   That was exactly where my mentality is at and the reason I asked in a forum post. I thought that, but I wanted to know if maybe I was overreacting or what some veteran thoughts might have been on the situation. Thank you all very much

   New Job Stay or Go?

   NurseGuy92 replied to NurseGuy92's topic in General Nursing

   I mean, it's not only the stepdown part. I truly don't necessarily mind that right off the beginning because it's allowing me to work independently with patients that are fairly stable (from what I'm used to seeing). However, it's the fact that they ...

   New Job Stay or Go?

   NurseGuy92 posted a topic in General Nursing

   New-grad RN here with 2 years experience in the emergency department as an ED Tech. COVID has obviously put a strain on finding a job at a particular healthcare organization that owns the majority of the hospitals in my area. So, I have applied for a...

   Looking for some guidance

   NurseGuy92 posted a topic in NP Students

   Just some general questions about Nurse Practitioner I suppose. I just completed my ADN and I have a couple options here. My long-term goal is to continue education and obtain my NP license and practice. What I think I would like to do is continue to...

   Walden University acute NP online program.

   NurseGuy92 replied to pulchra's topic in NP Students

   I've actually heard nothing but good things about Walden's online NP Program and the hospitals around my area specifically, do hire them. I can't speak for other areas but one of my greatest concerns (because I am in the same boat as you) is what Wes...

   How do you handle female patients your age or younger?

   NurseGuy92 replied to DanGIT1322's topic in Men

   I would never offer a chaperone, ALWAYS get one for anything more invasive/private. However, just like others have said, treat them like anyone else. I also always try to ask if they're comfortable with me doing a more invasive procedure (again, alwa...

    ECPI & Texas Jobs??

    NurseGuy92 replied to NurseGuy92's topic in Career Support

    You all have been a plethora of knowledge and understanding for me. I really appreciate everyone's input. Now that I see how the conversation kind of formed into a different subject other than "Career" I apologize for that. But I can't thank you all ...

    For male students, has anyone ever laughed or dissed for pursuing nursing

    NurseGuy92 replied to Big_Mike's topic in Male Students

    My cousin screws with me sometimes haha but it's a family thing I guess. None of my friends do it, but truly doesn't matter unless someone is doing it to you in a malicious way. Nurse doesn't = female just because it's predominantly female. Males are...

    Tread carefully....it's definitely not all that they say it's going to be. Not even in the slightest bit.

    ECPI & Texas Jobs??

    NurseGuy92 replied to NurseGuy92's topic in Career Support

    Okay, that definitely cleared up a lot. I was at work today talking to some of the nurses I work with and they were all either unsure or saying that it meant it was accredited haha. So I appreciate that greatly. So that's fairly frightening....I wis...

    ECPI & Texas Jobs??

    NurseGuy92 replied to NurseGuy92's topic in Career Support

    Maybe I don't quite understand the full extent of "accreditation" then. I thought there were like multiple different kinds, some people liked some, some preferred others. However, now that I am thinking about it, if I am currently only completing my ...

    ECPI & Texas Jobs??

    NurseGuy92 replied to NurseGuy92's topic in Career Support

    Hmm, I guess I must not fully understand the NLC then. I was under the impression that as long as that state was an NLC state, then you could go to any other NLC state with no restrictions or extra paperwork. Unless, I am correct in that understandin...
