  1. You'll find that in nursing, and probably every workplace, shifts like to talk smack about other shifts. As nurses we are perfectionists so it hits us harder than other shifts. If your management didn't talk to you then I would say not to worry too...
  2. Doesn't matter, it was the nurses fault because they called *big sarcasm here*
  3. Future Nurses are Brighter Than Ever

    Couple things, first love the name! Second agreed, every generation thinks they had it harder while thinking generations younger than them are dumb. Third it is common knowledge that as new generations are made they learn more than previous generati...
  4. These adverse effects are from practitioner orders though. Just because someone annoys you doesn't mean you have to order it. Stop pinning these issues on nurses. Ultimately the practitioner ordered it..

  6. Future Nurses are Brighter Than Ever

    Uff da, I say that and screw up my sentence. Pretend there is another comma after spelling. I can't find the edit button.
  7. Blood Administration

    Honestly this was my first error as a nurse... many times. In training I never had to administer blood so I never had the process down before being on my own. I'm still here as a nurse to talk about it today. Consents are important in case of legal ...
  8. is it doable to work night shift after having a baby?

    I know a guy who has this exact situation with his wife. She works day shift and he works nights. He is a zombie every day because the baby is not on a night shift schedule. It is doable, you just have to get creative with your sleep.

    I get the fly fishing comment because honestly I'd only work somewhere I could, well, chase bucks. As someone who has a fairly fresh kid (under 1) hobbies take a hard side step to priorities. This is especially the case when you are supposed to be ...
  10. Future Nurses are Brighter Than Ever

    Is this a typo or did the ACT used to be scored differently? Top score is 36. National average is something like 20. I know plenty of nurses who couldn't even dream of hitting 20 (don't get me wrong they are still great nurses.) Your asbestos und...
  11. insurance company jobs as new grad nurse

    Do you know exactly what type of insurance job you are looking for? Insurance companies utilize nurses in all sorts of ways. The majority of these careers you utilize your past nursing experiences to guide you. You could train a monkey to review i...
  12. Tele Nurse question

    Big medical systems, think Cleveland Clinic or Mayo
  13. Interview Anxiety

    Awesome! Congratulations!
  14. Anyone’s contract ever been cancelled?

    I'm not an agency nurse but I do bring them in to my facility to fill needs. We had to cancel one recently due to the staff not being able to meet our employment requirements. We go through medefis and our contact there said a bunch of contracts ar...
  15. LPN before BSN ??

    So if your concern is if LPN helps, no not really. Part way through your BSN education you become eligible to take the NCLEX-PN. If your concern is money, the cheaper route is normally tech/community then four year. If you are able to nab a lot of...
