Does anyone have any good resources to learn more about wound care? Also, resources to learn more about ortho when it comes to floor nursing? I'm off orientation, fresh fresh... but I'd like to look up some more of those things in my free time.

Hello, I am a new RN that graduated in May. I am on maternity leave and plan to stay on leave a few more months. I already feel like I am forgetting things and there are other things I would like to become more knowledgeable in... specifically cardiac. Are there any good study/ refresher materials that can potentially help prepare me going back to work ?

Hello, I'm in a pickle. I am due to have my baby in a couple months. I just graduated with my RN in May. I am struggling finding childcare for my toddler so of course it will be the same issue with the infant. The pay around my area also almost doesn't justify paying childcare for 2. So, I have been working days my husband is off. He works a rotating schedule (flipping days to nights etc). I am basically on orientation and I'm struggling learning with so many days off in between. I'm not sure if I'll be able to return to work soon after the baby with my husbands crazy schedule and a newborn. Is it impossible to get back to the bedside after we figure out childcare... which may be a year or so? I worked so hard for this degree and taking time off makes me sad. I know I'll be hitting the continuing education credits hard because I don't want to lose my license. This has just been frustrating.
