  2. U.K. healthcare

    RGN1 replied to beej32's topic in International Nursing

    I think this discussion just goes to show that there's no really good solution. Personally I do think that a universal healthcare system in the ideal world is the best thing but because of abuse by...

    RGN1 replied to RobDel's topic in International Nursing

    I had heard that FL can be a pain as far as waiting for your ATT goes & they won't issue the full license without a SS#. If you don't mind the wait - & with retrogression I guess it's not...

  5. Required Hours for various BON

    RGN1 replied to ukrmn's topic in International Nursing

    That's because I seem to have been doing it forever!! Although I have to say most thanks should go to Suzanne/Madwife/Englishnurse & all the other great people on here who have been my sources of...

  6. U.K. healthcare

    RGN1 replied to beej32's topic in International Nursing

    Can I just remind everyone that healthcare here in the UK is far from free. It's "free" at the point of delivery in some areas of healthcare but you are paying for it in your taxes. Eyecare &...

    RGN1 replied to paris2's topic in International Nursing

    RGN1 replied to YUWESAREN's topic in International Nursing

    I passed N-CLEX last year & have just come back from my US holiday - it never even entered my head it would be a problem & it wasn't. The only way to get deported is if you do something that's...

  11. Required Hours for various BON

    RGN1 replied to ukrmn's topic in International Nursing

    I suggest to all who are not sure about their hours to go ahead and apply for the CGFNS CES. There are many nurses on the UK forum who thought they wouldn't have enough hours but actually found out...

  13. Intramuscular Injection Update Training ??

    RGN1 replied to david1969's topic in International Nursing

    Yup - pretty much the same training I had!!! OP - you could identify it as a training need on your appraisal & see if you can have a chat with a uni link lecturer - if you have students in your...

  14. Tragedy awaiting to happend!!

    RGN1 replied to paris2's topic in International Nursing

    You know what's really scary? If the NMC brings in the change to their code of conduct that would make the nurse in charge responsible for anything she does wrong!!! I don't get paid anywhere near...

    RGN1 replied to crissrn27's topic in General Nursing

    Of course you absolutely should introduce yourself, I hope no-one would question that, I would never dream of that not being the very first thing I do every shift but I could not say THOSE lines...

  16. how would you feel as a pt?

    RGN1 replied to crissrn27's topic in General Nursing

    If I was a patient I would think - "we'll see then" & would be looking for chances to prove them wrong!!! Not that I'm a malicious person or anything it's just that it would put my back up -...

  22. Do I let her know about my brother??

    RGN1 replied to zumalong's topic in General Nursing

    It's a sad reminder to all that as a nurse you should NEVER discuss anything patient related when in a room with other people, end of story!! I think a quiet word may be the right thing to do - we all...

    RGN1 replied to RedERRN's topic in International Nursing
