    On Call Requirements?

    Rose_Queen replied to hcurry1's topic in Gastroenterology

    Will be dependent on the facility's policy, and is definitely something you should ask at an interview. For my facility, call response time is 30 minutes from time of call to in OR/procedural

    IVIG

    Rose_Queen replied to chemdawg's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Albumin is also a product of human plasma and everywhere I've worked or been a patient/had a family member as a patient treated it like a medication. There was no blood consent required. I'm sure IVIG...

    HELP! Retaking NCLEX due to expired license after passing it 8 years ago?!

    Rose_Queen replied to joyfulwellrichwise's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It’s also going to increase the length of time you’ve been unemployed. That most likely is not going to be looked upon favorably by potential employers

    Rose_Queen replied to joyfulwellrichwise's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Won’t you need child care when you’re at work? Those positions you mentioned having with a BSN- you’re going to need the bedside experience

    HELP! Retaking NCLEX due to expired license after passing it 8 years ago?!

    Rose_Queen replied to joyfulwellrichwise's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This is my thought as well. It’s not just the knowledge you need to refresh but also skills. A refresher course is probably also going to be more palatable to potential employers as

    Struggling with Swing Shift Clinical

    Rose_Queen replied to Carmen R's topic in General Students

    The good thing is that you have Thursday off and don’t have to be up early. However, make sure you have an established routine that tells your body it’s time to sleep. What do you do on other...

    New nurse - Unemployed for 8 months.

    Rose_Queen replied to Plantladynurse's topic in General Nursing

    What types of positions have you applied for? If you've only applied for acute care positions in hospitals, it's time to broaden your horizons- look at LTC/SNF, ambulatory settings, etc. It may not be...

    Classmates who cheat

    Rose_Queen replied to Maroon horse's topic in General Students

    Just remember that no one can cheat on NCLEX. Either they learn the material or they don’t. You’re already ahead of them by having learned

    Do hospitals still have RNFA?

    Rose_Queen replied to WYRN's topic in Operating Room

    Very dependent on facilities and their structures. I would bet that the larger academic facilities would be less likely to utilize them due to the presence of residents, fellows, and medical students....

    Help! The teacher's answers are different from mine?

    Rose_Queen replied to Beaue's topic in General Students

    While I’m sure OP appreciates the answer, doing the work for them doesn’t help in the long run. Students need to learn how to solve these problems, including relevant information and

    New Grads with no patient care experience in the O.R

    My facility’s preop nurses are responsible for starting IVs. The only exception is children, who are gassed down and then anesthesia starts the IV once they’re

    CMA playing "Nurse Manager?" CMA boundaries? NPD?

    Rose_Queen replied to RenaissanceNurse's topic in General Nursing

    You just are not going to find that in most ambulatory settings. It's not cost effective, and let's face it, healthcare has become a

    Yes, if they are in a supervisory role and it is not a scope of practice issue. It doesn’t take a nursing license to manage attendance records or discipline someone for attendance issues per the...

    You say you have no anger and are not in pain, but it certainly sounds like you do or there's something else going on. Taking anonymous posts on the internet personally is not healthy. Perhaps sitting...

    New Grads with no patient care experience in the O.R

    Rose_Queen replied to Joanni61's topic in Operating Room

    I went into the OR as a new grad. I actually turned down a hospital that required all new grads to start in med/surg. I was absolutely miserable in med/surg clinicals and probably would have burned...

    Rose_Queen replied to BlondieRN19's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's a discussion board, not a mentoring program. Additionally, by the use of screen names, it is impossible to verify that anyone responding is truly who they claim to be. That is why everything...
