    Texas license renewal

    chare replied to Memalicious's topic in Travel

    Did you use your TX address? ETA: If you haven't done so, you need to call the TX BON. You should also call your travel company and notify them, and you might consider calling the facility where...

    chare replied to Shookclays's topic in General Nursing

    If I say "how stupid are you" will they take it as a challenge??

    chare replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Perhaps their concern isn't what the consent says, or how to complete the form. Perhaps their concern is why they are being asked to obtain consent, rather than the prescribing provider. Has anyone...

    Is this a sentinel event?

    chare replied to ZSimzNeuroNurse's topic in General Nursing

    Considering normal CSF volume and production withdrawing 10 mL over 20 minutes was probably fine. From your comment "drawing off" I presume you are withdrawing it directly from the patient. If so,...

    If I say "how stupid are you" will they take it as a challenge??

    chare replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Why are the nurses getting consent for anything? If your facility requires consent prior to beginning psychotropic medications, why isn't the prescribing MD, DO, NP, or PA doing this? ETA: While I...

    In my opinion, if you have accepted a position in VT, and are not going to work in GA, it makes no sense to apply for licensure in GA. Applying for licensure in GA not only adds time to the licensure...
