  1. Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    InHisImage replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I have seen this argument a lot. The definition of "forced" is: "obtained or imposed by coercion or physical power."...

  2. Nurses are Fleeing the Hospital

    InHisImage replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Nursing is second career for me and I've been at it for almost 14 years. I've had a variety of positions but because I've worked 2 jobs for about half of that time, most of my experience has been in...

  3. Nurses are Fleeing the Hospital

    InHisImage replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that there is a current culture of poor work ethic today, in ALL professions, but those who ascribe to that culture are not the nurses leaving healthcare in droves. These folks, instead, are...

  8. New Nurse, On Call, Called Off My Scheduled Shifts

    InHisImage replied to Owlseye's topic in General Nursing

    You might consider getting a PRN nursing job that you can work around your FT schedule. Based on availability of hours, you could work as much or little as you want and save money for those times...

  9. I'm a sexless nurse, part 2

    InHisImage replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    A couple posts mentioned needing a female nurse in the room with a male nurse during catheterization. In my opinion, I believe that it’s wise to have a second nurse (or aide/tech) in the room...

  10. Cleaning Products May Increase Risk for COPD in Nurses

    InHisImage replied to J.Adderton's topic in General Nursing

    My mom worked 20+ years for GM, the last several on sanitation, and she was forced to go out on disability from chemical burns on her

  11. Four 12s in a row?!?! ??

    InHisImage replied to NightNerd's topic in General Nursing

    I never did 18 but it wasn’t unusual for me to do 10-12 in a row. I have even done double 12’s. One 12 hr job would end at 0530 and I’d drive to another hospital to work 0700-1900. The second...

  12. Four 12s in a row?!?! ??

    InHisImage replied to NightNerd's topic in General Nursing

    That’s exactly what I did when working in the ER. I worked nights and avoided the flip-flopping that ensured that I was useless on many of my days off because I was trying to catch up on sleep when...

  13. Managers, Nurses and Delegation: Who Has Authority?

    InHisImage replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    What others have been saying, and what the bottom line is, is that if you have time at all to help then you do whatever task needs doing, regardless of what it is, and the person that is asking for...

  14. Do you feel hospital experience is a must?

    InHisImage replied to LPNtoRNin2016OH's topic in Occupational Health

    Yes, I know this is an old thread, but I also know that others will come along with the same/similar questions and might appreciate an updated answer. I spent 11 years in the ER and now just a...

  15. Urgent: Need advice please?

    InHisImage replied to FutRNRock's topic in General Nursing

    I work for a VERY large corporation where I evaluate sick employees on a daily basis for COVID to determine if they meet criteria for testing or quarantine. I am in a higher risk category and have...

  16. Not Getting Paid Overtime. Is This Illegal?

    InHisImage replied to AnaBanana.RN's topic in General Nursing

    Exactly! I also work in Michigan and have mostly worked where nurses are unionized, so the pay rule can be anything that has been agreed upon in the

  17. Does it feel to everyone else that many newer nurses glamourize the ER and ICU?

    InHisImage replied to The0Walrus's topic in General Nursing

    M-F sounds good but working 5 days per week is not all it’s cracked up to be when you’ve been used to working 3 days per week. I’ve done both and M-F feels like I’m always working and never...

  18. When to turn in resignation?

    InHisImage replied to PirateNurse06's topic in General Nursing

    An offer being rescinded is not the only concern. I just went through this exact thing...background check, fingerprinting, references, drug screen all passed and was just waiting on a start date when...

  19. New grad first job as Clinic RN?

    InHisImage replied to GOAL2BRN's topic in General Nursing

    I’m on my 6th job I‘ve been lied to about something, either my commission or omission, during my interviews for every single one. I’ve also read plenty of threads here of new grads complaining...

  20. Social Media Worry

    InHisImage replied to k1p1ssk's topic in School

    There's no way to know if a given religious exemption is a "sudden religious awakening." If flu shots were not previously required, no exemption would have been needed until now, so no way to know...

  21. I heard a random guy saying now Texas NP has an authority to practice independently. Is this true?

    InHisImage replied to Kuelye Lee's topic in Advanced Practice

    This is not Texas but could be similar to what the OP is referring to.

  22. Alarming conditions of a job offer letter

    InHisImage replied to guest1107684's topic in General Nursing

    This is exactly why I would never work for a non-union facility unless absolutely necessary. I realize that some areas do not have unions but I highly recommend considering a union hospital if you...

  23. Frustrating Nurse Family Members

    InHisImage replied to adventure_rn's topic in General Nursing

    Worse than the new grad is the nursing STUDENT!

  24. IV Insulin and Cardizem

    InHisImage replied to NurseBettyICU's topic in Patient Medications

    I realize that you aren't entirely disagreeing with me and I also understand that certain circumstances may dictate that certain meds be run together, but I don't care to belabor the point because I...

  25. Constantly being put in triage or fast track

    InHisImage replied to Stella_Blue's topic in Emergency

    Keep your log and try the suggestions given here, but if you think your assignments are becoming punitive, and if you belong to a union you could try talking to your union rep to see if there’s any...
