  2. Meltdown moment...when was yours?

    Oh honey, so sorry! No this is not, I repeat, NOT normal. If it was I believe I would have to look for a new job. Thankfully my unit is actually usually very well staffed. We usually have 2-3 licensed...

    I was a tech at my prn job not to long ago (like 3 mon.!), so when I am the charge nurse it can feel a little weird. Lucky for me though, the techs and LPN's I work with are great, we work together...

  8. Med Prepouring Question (CNA)

    Actually it is perfectly legal for "med techs" to give ROUTINE meds to residents in assisted living or group home settings. I work as a community outreach psychiatric nurse and I supervise the...

  11. Registered nurse vs Registered Psychiatric Nurse?

    I'm graduating with my RN in 3 weeks and have accepted a job at a psychiatric inpatient facility as a graduate nurse. I also have a BA in psychology, but that really has no bearing on psychiatric...
  12. I'm going to say something not so popular but here goes anyway. I graduate in 3 weeks from nursing school and I just accepted a position at an acute care psychiatric facility on a unit that only...
  13. ICK! I destroyed my GPA and can't get in now!!!!!!

    Do you have any schools around you that accept students from a wait list and not by GPA? If not you may just have to buckle down and retake some courses to get a higher grade. Check with your school...
  14. Can we still be friends?

    Hi all!!! I am graduating nursing school in 3 weeks and just received the great news that I have been hired as an RN on the same psych unit that I have worked on for 3 years as a tech. Although I am...
  15. Dumbest rule in your hospital?

    I work on a psychiatric unit too, and we also those "nifty" little grievance reports and we now have an interim manager that has no psychiatric experience. So now we keep getting called in to her...
