   Curious what a reasonable utilization management caseload is per day? Thanks!

2. New grad Operating room nurse scared about never being able to go to ICU

   nursing9462 replied to tg2125's topic in General Nursing

   Would you consider PRN stepdown nursing? They see a lot in that area! OR is hard to find, especially as new grad.

5. Days vs nights?

   nursing9462 replied to nursing9462's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks for the replies. The opening was filled.

6. Days vs nights?

   nursing9462 replied to nursing9462's topic in General Nursing

   I am newer to this facility, so that's my hesitation. Also, means unlikely to get it. I know days tend to be busier, but the opportunity to apply for days is rare... My old facility would never announce day shift openings.

   Worked nights for years. Debating applying for day shift. Thoughts? Days vs nights?

8. No med room.

   nursing9462 posted a topic in General Nursing

   New unit does not have a med room. Just med machine in hall. This seems less than ideal for promoting safety. Thoughts?

11. Advice? Postpartum or LDRP job?

    nursing9462 replied to nursing9462's topic in General Nursing

    COVID stalled some things. Thanks, though.

12. Advice? Postpartum or LDRP job?

    nursing9462 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Deciding between a cross-trained LDRP (labor, delivery, recovery, and postpartum) unit or a postpartum unit. LDRP floats every 4 hours between L&D and postpartum as needed. Advice?

13. LDRP vs postpartum nursing?

    nursing9462 posted a topic in General Nursing

    LDRP nurse (cross-trained and floats b/w PP and L&D as needed every 4 hours) vs postpartum nurse? Advice? Hard to make a decision. Thanks.

14. Postpartum?

    nursing9462 replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    I now have an opportunity to do either a PP unit or a cross-trained LDRP (floats every 4 hours based on needs)! Any advice there? I’d eventually like to do pediatric or NICU.

15. Postpartum nursing?

    nursing9462 replied to nursing9462's topic in General Nursing

    Never worked OB. Now have to decide cross-trained LDRP unit vs PP unit. Any advice?
