  1. Am I selfish for working overtime?

    I agree with the last 4 posts. The only thing I would add is that as an adult with a good paying job, one of the bills you should be prioritizing now is paying rent to your mom (if you are not...
  2. Decisions decisions

    This actually sounds like a better deal to me. You will have your entire training period to decide if you like the OR well enough to stick with it without being under contract, and no obligation on...

  4. New grad to NP. Is it a mistake?

    Several others have already emphasized the advantages of ICU experience and I agree. I spent 6 months in ICU before I decided it wasn't for me, then worked 10+ years in the ER and it's a different...
  5. New grad to NP. Is it a mistake?

    I am generally not in favor of new grad nurses going straight to NP school without experience. Although you are correct that the RN role vs the NP role is different, I don't see how anyone can deny...
  6. I have worked in occ health for a global corporation for the past 2.5 years where I fielded dozens of calls every week back when Covid was at its worst, and even then CDC guidelines would not have...
  7. Is this a violation of HIPPA?

    It was 3:40 when the OP was done with the doctor and was supposed to get labs drawn but she had a previous commitment at 4:00 and didn't have time for the labs right then. It doesn't matter that the...
  8. Remote RN positions

    Indeed and LinkedIn post remote positions all the time. Some require that you live in the state where the job is located and others allow you to work from anywhere in the U.S. Most will also require...
  9. Concealed Carry...as a nurse?

    The word "brandish" carries a specific meaning relative to firearms and nothing in Angel's post indicated that it was
  10. I'm struggling during clinical and simulation

    OP, this is a great suggestion. While you do this, develop a routine and don't deviate except as necessary. A routine will help you to remember to everything that needs to be done and make you feel...
  11. Leaving a first job during orientation

    In general, 8 is a lot for anyone let alone a new grad just off orientation, especially with only one other nurse with you. If it were me, I’d keep looking for a different job and wouldn’t...
  12. Vaccines

    Of course there are some people that don’t want them but it’s also true that some CAN’T have them without a significant increase in risk to their health. I have never had a flu vaccine,...
  13. Jul 29, 2022 “Today, Liberty Counsel settled the nation’s first classwide lawsuit for health care workers over a COVID shot mandate, for more than $10.3 million. The class action settlement...
  14. Desperately Need to Vent

    It’s been my experience that it’s takes time for some doctors in the ER to trust the judgement of nurses that they don’t know and it doesn’t matter how much previous experience you might have....

  17. RN Jobs That Do Not Require Covid Vaccine

    Hospitals are businesses as much as any other and all businesses run a risk of financial demise for one reason or another. Have your opinion about abortion or fetal cell lines but what I wish...

    Of course they close, that was never a question. The inference by another poster was that the hospital in the article would close because of the

  20. RN Jobs That Do Not Require Covid Vaccine

    I’m well versed in the positions and ideology of the left on this forum and how absolutely positive that you all are that you are right about everything, so I see no point in any further discourse...
  21. RN Jobs That Do Not Require Covid Vaccine

    So? 20% is way lower than most other attorneys get. “The class-action settlement rate of 33% is far lower than the average of 67% in federal courts. Even the trickiest federal cases involving...
  22. RN Jobs That Do Not Require Covid Vaccine

    First, I don’t have to tell you anything. Second, you are making wild assumptions about something that isn’t even likely to happen. Third, in the unlikely event that this hospital closes, you...

    I doubt that the hospital thought they would close if they agreed to this settlement. If they did, they could have opted for other conditions, or opted not to settle at
