  1. Nurse terminated after having baby

    Town & Country replied to hokiern's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I think you mean "at-will" state. If you work in an at-will state you can be terminated for any reason...."right-to-work" means they have to have a legitimate reason to fire you - which would be a...

  2. Only one nursing job opening at my local hospital!

    Town & Country replied to Hellllllo Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I could be wrong, but with your having that great interview and then not hearing anything, it sounds like you may be sort of "blacklisted" because of what happened at your former employment. Where...

  3. Interiview advice

    Town & Country replied to wendyjpa's topic in Nursing Career

    You know, that really isn't that long, if you talk at ALL. I have had many interviews that seemed to fly by, and when I would check the time it had been an

  4. i'm waiting for an interview

    Town & Country replied to shyone2005's topic in General Nursing

    Go to hospitalsoup.com. They have a section about "Interview Questions You Will be Asked" and "Questions to Ask at Your Interview" They have the sort of generic, one-size-fits-all type of...

  5. Please don't move this to the New Mexico board.

    Town & Country replied to Town & Country's topic in General Nursing

    Well.....the PMs I have gotten about Santa Fe are NOT favorable! I didn't know drugs were so bad there - I also didn't know the school system was so

  6. Please don't move this to the New Mexico board.

    Town & Country posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hi, Please, don't move this post. It's been at the New Mexico board for nearly a week, and zero replies. Can ANYONE tell me ANYTHING about the hospital in Santa Fe? St. Vincent Medical Center....

  7. Please don't move this to the New Mexico board.

    Town & Country replied to Town & Country's topic in General Nursing

    What are some "outlying towns" near Santa Fe? Somebody told me one called Eldorado (?) was the only town nearby and advised not going

  8. Please don't move this to the New Mexico board.

    Town & Country replied to Town & Country's topic in General Nursing

    LOL, those are adorable, too....I've found some newspapers online. I would go there myself but it's about 1,300 miles

    Hey I love your cute avatar.

  10. Please don't move this to the New Mexico board.

    Town & Country replied to Town & Country's topic in General Nursing

    That's what I keep hearing, "a friend of a friend", no first-hand reports.....but if she was a travel nurse and stayed there 2 years, there must have been SOMETHING good about it. Most travel...

  11. Please don't move this to the New Mexico board.

    Town & Country replied to Town & Country's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the website but I have already been there and read it....what I am looking for are personal stories, experiences, etc., from people who have actually worked at that hospital and/or lived in...

  13. Is this new grad a nut or what? Opinions please !

    Town & Country replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    Exactly what I was talking about.......she might have a 4.0 GPA but she still needs to know HOW and WHY to do what she needs to do. Book learning alone just doesn't cut it....you still need...

  14. Is this new grad a nut or what? Opinions please !

    Town & Country replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    Certainly... https://allnurses.com/forums/showthread.php?t=122296&page=2&pp=10 I didn't say everyone who wants to be a nurse should work as an aide first. We were talking about this...

  15. Is this new grad a nut or what? Opinions please !

    Town & Country replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    Another clue that she's inexperienced and trying to come off as "knowledgeable." She doesn't need any more book learning, she needs to learn basic nursing care. It takes alot to get through...

  16. Is this new grad a nut or what? Opinions please !

    Town & Country replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    The fact that she had a GPA of 4.0 means absolutely squat as to her "success" as a nurse. If she has never worked on a floor, then I repeat one month is NOT sufficient orientation for the...

  17. Is this new grad a nut or what? Opinions please !

    Town & Country replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    A dead giveway that she studied like a fiend, when what she really should have been doing was working as an aide. How many people do you know who had a GPA of 4.0 in nursing school? She's...

  18. Is this new grad a nut or what? Opinions please !

    Town & Country replied to DutchgirlRN's topic in General Nursing

    I really can't believe this thread. People are diagnosing this new nurse as bipolar on a message board? You gotta be kidding! It IS possible to graduate with a nursing degree and know...

  21. Takedowns and Security Training?

    Town & Country posted a topic in Psychiatric

    Do most psyche nurses function as "security", too? What's the scoop? I interviewed for a psyche position but a friend of mine says that, to work psyche, you have to get physical with the assaultive...

    Death Angel... Working nights in LTC you hear stories ~ I heard about the "Death Angel" when I worked out West... I worked 7p-7a in a LTC and the RN on the other side of the building told me about...

  23. Failed because of the HESI? Huh?

    Town & Country replied to jeepgirl's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't heard of that particular test, but there is usually some horror stories of who-got-kicked-out-of-the-nursing-program floating around while you're in school......stories guaranteed to make...
