What to study and how can this be to my benefit financially? Im a rncm now and do admits,rc roc, dc all day so I don't really need the cert, but am looking to expand my options. I work way too many hours now. So I need to make more and work less!! ...

Just figured I'd be more marketable and have the edge on someone else. I honestly like oasis, i think its cool to study lol..... So a better understanding of the correct way would make that better. I forgot its open book :) sweet

Yes exactly. I just don't like that word non- healing lol. But that's my hang up I guess. Computer test. And it's close to $400 out of my pocket. So one time testing is a must. - I'm going to start another thread about testing- please reply there. ...

So if u don't mark Non healing then what do u mark? A lot of my incisions are staples and are clean. By the time I see them at home it's on Friday for admission and the surgery was Monday. Or glued and its hard to tell. All incisions will show impr...

And this is the way it should be in hh. These jobs should be sought after, but the norm is probably not. My company is poorly ran, and if it weren't that I love hh and being a cm that sees pts with the flexibility.... I would quit. I'm never "off" my...

If you value your RN license, find another job tomorrow. You worked too hard for that paper, to let ignorance take it away from you. Your are PD, pt abandonment is bogus. Julie

While I appreciate the simplicity of your answer Ned, and I have repeated "why not" back to myself about 1000 times today while working in the cold rain of Ky..... that doesn't help me :) I'm assuming hh is not as simple as in the us where car rental...

Our policy is wet to dry with morning visit. but depending on the wound, if it seemed urgent or complicated I would consider a visit. but general answer is wet to dry. Which is why i stress to my new nurses and lpn to make sure pt and family understa...

Several of my classmates ahead of me have told me there are so many priority questions. I have been trying to find info regarding how you decide (or how NCLEX decides) who you discharge first? If you have any idea please let me know asap. Thanks Juli...
