  1. Forced To Change Shifts

    Olivelove20 replied to anj's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Maybe I'm not understanding your post, but if coworker wants to change from nights to days and is going to ask your Nurse Manager how is this your problem? It isn't. Your coworker is making a lot of...

  2. Racism in NYC

    Olivelove20 replied to 135pipe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You have zero idea what race or ethnicity I am. You are assuming I am white. You state it is not up to white to decide what is racists - just as it is not up to other races to decide what is racists...

  3. No Jeep, No Love: I'm Out Of Here!

    Olivelove20 replied to Therese Pingatore's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I wonder where nursing will be in another year or two given so many who are leaving. I too am one of them. Though I am unable to leave the profession completely (and did not prepare as I should have...

  7. ‘Patron saint of Patience’ is at end of her rope. Please advise.

    Olivelove20 replied to Mapleandhoney2468's topic in Home Health

  8. Where’s the limit to accommodate a patient

    Olivelove20 replied to Lanimisses's topic in Geriatric, LTC

  9. Shadowing a nurse on another floor/unit? PLEASE HELP.

    Olivelove20 replied to MareBear112's topic in General Specialties

    Olivelove20 replied to lwheatley's topic in Hospice, Palliative

  17. RN Pay Scale Augusta, GA?

  22. Just Got Hired But Want to Go Per Diem in Order to Travel RN

    Olivelove20 replied to EatCake2Day's topic in General Nursing

    I suspect that your new manager will not take kindly to you being hired FT, still on orientation and wanting to drop to PRN simply because you want to travel around. With a year under your belt,...

    Olivelove20 replied to oldie's topic in General Students
