  1. Now that the Covid 19 vaccine is just around the corner... Will it be mandatory?

    CardiTeleRN replied to NewRN'16's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Health care is becoming a field of pure intimidation, bullying, and staff have no rights. It's always do what they say or be fired. No conversations to be had, no surveys. Nothing. We are willing to...

  2. BULLYING at work as Usual

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    Thats the issue. Employers lash out at the wrong people. I don't give them any problems. This is the first time out of many years I have ever said no. I have worked all hour shifts, every day....

  3. BULLYING at work as Usual

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't believe I can agree with that because we have all seen people of all ages parish from COVID without underlying conditions. I think this is the mindset of many health care facilities at this...

  4. BULLYING at work as Usual

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    Well, there are other criteria that we have listed. Plus, there are plenty of young people with cancer DX, pulomonary fibrosis, etc, that will put them at risk. People still have to work and pay bills...

  5. BULLYING at work as Usual

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    Well at my employment, they actually have a policy in place that allows exemptions for those with chronic illnesses. There is just a process that needs to be completed such as completing the exemption...

  6. BULLYING at work as Usual

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    Ironically, my excuse was actually covid related but not to illness, more of an exemption of working covid units due to my other chronic condition. Nurse supervisor is not pleased with that to say the...

  7. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hello! I've recently posted about the difficulties of finding employment in NYC. I see multiple commenters mention that being hired is virtually impossible as a new grad. I am not a new grad;...

  8. COVID-Positive Nurses Working: Irresponsible or Smart?

    CardiTeleRN replied to J.Adderton's topic in Disaster Preparation

    My place of employment is also forcing us to work with fresh surgery patients while floating is back and forth to covid units. They are also forcing us to work even if we are covid positive but...

  9. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    It’s not about who can juggle the most hardships, it’s about patient safety. If one person can juggle a family, 2 jobs, and run the flower shop while working night shift and still perform their...

  10. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    Not all new nurses leave after the year and not all new nurses should have to work night shift. I worked night shift as a CNA with a new born while in school full time taking 15 credits at a time. I...

  11. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    Valid point! This is what I mean! This is why I say associates are better than bachelors. Associate degrees spend more time in the clinical setting than classroom like bachelors which is why I don’t...

  12. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    No one is entitled a job; however, I believe it is silly for an employer to turn away an ASN new grad whom may be actually well qualified to hit the ground running for a BSN holder. Unfortunately,...

  13. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    This response is the only legitimate one that I see happen all the time. I hear the new grads constantly mention how they want to work at specific teaching hospitals for only a year for their resume...

  14. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    Of course! I just feel it’s not fair for people to have to leave their homes, family, friends, etc to find a job that’ll pay them just the same give or take a dollar or two. Shouldn’t have to...

  15. New Grads and Acute Care Hiring

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in General Nursing

    This is true. I believe nurses that hold associates are much more prepared clinically for acute care fresh out of school than BSN holders. Associates focuses solely on clinical practice. ASN holders...

  16. RN Job Hunt in NYC! Help?!

    CardiTeleRN posted a topic in Nursing Career

    How difficult is it to get into NYC hospitals? I've applied to literally 138 jobs online for NYC health and hospitals. I have been a RN since feb of 2019. I have a little over a year and a half of...

  17. NYC New grad

    CardiTeleRN replied to Nmink's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    They asked if I had experience, I have 2 years of experience so I'm not sure if they are hiring new grads. I will ask how they feel about hiring new grads! I'm sure there are plenty of people curious...

  18. NYC New grad

    CardiTeleRN replied to Nmink's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I do have a BSN, it's specified on my resume as well as all of my experience in addition to having BLS and ACLS. I called them today. HR stated they are hiring - there is no hiring freeze at this...

  19. NYC New grad

    CardiTeleRN replied to Nmink's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I hope not. There's no reason to continue with a freeze. I may attempt to give HR a call tomorrow to figure out some things. I know finding a RN position in NYC is difficult without COVID so I know...

    CardiTeleRN replied to Nmink's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Why would they post jobs if there is a

  21. NYC Job Applications

    CardiTeleRN replied to newnursenurse's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Hey! I am in currently in a similar situation. I will have 2 years of RN experience as of Dec. I have over a year in cardiac step-down and telemetry. I've applied to 138 jobs with NYC hospitals in the...

  22. RN Job Hunt in NYC! Help?!

    CardiTeleRN replied to CardiTeleRN's topic in Nursing Career

    Thanks for replying! I do have a BSN, and you're definitely right. COVID most likely has people weary. I just don't appreciate them still posting jobs LOL. I guess I'll just have to wait

  23. Med-surg but cardiac????

    CardiTeleRN posted a topic in Medical-Surgical

    Hello! A couple of hospitals I've worked for have gone from cardiac step down to cardiac medicine which usually boils down to med sure with some basic level of cardiac patients (CHF exac, Fluid...
