Not only will I report but I have reported it.

I swear we must work in the same facility.

Me too. Thanks.

I'm having to wait also; they haven't received my CLEP transcripts.

Oh boy. Hoping that won't be the case for me. Fingers crossed

I am aiming for Sept 1 also. The only hold up is a couple of transcripts and I hope they are received soon. Ready to start especially since it's almost impossible to do anything except bedside nursing without a BSN these days. At least that's how it...

This sound identical to what happened to me the other day. I call the rapid response, unit nurses came and attempted to make us look like idiots. I don't feel bad though. I still maintain that I/we did the right thing. Some others obviously need t...

Our policy is no cell phones; yet that's how our NM gets in touch with us even though there are several phones at the station a dedicated CN line. Maybe she didn't get the memo....*snicker*

We have both...

We still use those...

Life has taught me 1. To develop a thick skin and 2. That people with that type of personality (not just nurses) either have personal insecurities or have problems managing their personal lives; neither of which were of my concern. Once I learned pol...

I had a Cn like that; always gave me admissions back to back; treated me like an idiot when I asked questions and wouldn't help out in a bind. This was over 4 years ago; well now she has finally run her course and is no longer the "top dog" as she th...

My dad was diagnosed with PC in September 2009. He didn't pass until September 2012. Also received chemotherapy and when one treatment would fail; he would switch to another one even tried radiation therapy. He wasn't in denial, he just had a lot of ...

Brandon, I totally get where you're coming from. I worked LTC for three yrs and have worked acute care for 4 yrs and they are 2 totally different horses when it comes to pt care. I can so relate to people NEEDING showers/meds and refusing. In LTC you...

^^^^^^^^^^yes that!!!!!!

Some people are just nosey and rude. Things that shouldn't be open for discussion; especially since you didn't confide in her. I just would have asked her why she wants to know and why she thinks she's privy to such information.

Georgia has it's long list of stipulations but EC is accepted. I'm licensed in GA.

We get this a lot where I work. I work tele/acute and we get a lot of unit patients before they are ready. Our ratio is also 1:6 and I usually keep my fingers crossed praying nothing serious happens to the unit patient. While I effectively try to man...

I've worked LTAC and acute care.

I Co sign on what Beach says. I only used Sherri's online and also passed the CPNE @ Southern Regional with one PCS repeat all because I got distracted during care. Olga, sorry you didn't have a good experience bit not everyone shares your opinion.

This video is very upsetting and ****** me off. Maryland didn't supply reason for revocation to WV because they COULDN'T. I wonder if she could pursue legal action; interfering with someone's livelihood is never ok.

Thanks Lyndaa. It's been rough but could have been worse.

I graduated October 2011; took boards December 2011 passed first try with the minimum questions; applied for licensure immediately and got the run around from JAN-MAR of 2012 with whether or not they received my application. Then received a generic e...
