My husband and I are looking to move from Tampa to Nashville, TN and I am curious as to which hospitals are the best to work for and what I can expect in pay (approx.). I currently have 4 years as LPN and 4 years as RN (1yr in Med/Surg ICU and 3 in...

A friend of mine is encouraging me to go to work at Humana. I am scared to quit my ICU hospital position. The Humana position allows you to work from home after 3 months. Does anyone have any details regarding this job? I received alot of info fr...

I was wondering if anyone could please tell me the daily job description of a CRNA? I was wondering what your daily shift schedules are and what you do while there. Do you intubate, epidurals, a-lines...can you place central venous lines, are you ...

I believe where you are in the country may make a difference. I work in Tampa, Florida and we are begging for nurses (especially nurses with experience). I am an RN in the hospital. I work PRN which is wonderful since I have a small son and I only...

I would have given the patient the 25 units he requested then rechecked his blood sugar later according to the insulin you gave him. If it was still high I would explain to the patient the need for the remaining insulin. If it was low I would docum...

I applied for the CPNE at the very end of October and 4 days later received a Jan 8 CPNE date. Went to the CPNE and passed in Jan but my graduation date wasn't scheduled through excelsior until March 19th(which is slightly ridiculous). I applied to...

You should be proud of your accomplishments. Anyone who works in the healthcare field and stays in the healthcare field should be proud. We are on a whole underappreciated. We work holidays, weekends, long shifts, subject to any and all diseases, ...

I am an LPN. My husband is an RN. I tell people I am a nurse. My husband tells people he is a nurse. My husband can work anywhere in the hospital. I work med-surg. My base is $17.50. My husband's is $32. I can't push drugs, sign care plans, or pull p...

Sometimes I think RN's are unaware of the way LPNs are treated not because it doesn't happen, but because it doesn't happen to them. As an LPN I have been called a "Little Phake Nurse", a "Low Paid Nurse", a "Little Pretend Nurse", etc... So it doe...

does anyone know the payscale for a dnp compared to a arnp

Comparing LPN to CNA because the word nurse is in the title is a very bad analogy because the "a" in CNA is the word assistant. A "nurse's assistant or aide". When CNAs are working they are the assistant or aide to not only the RN but the LPN. LPN...

Was she working in LTC or in a hospital? Sometimes that makes a huge difference.

Thank You Very Much. I Really Appreciate It!

Can someone please help? (In more ways than one!haha) First off, I don't know how to use this website...so I am sorry for posting this question here. Secondly, I live in Florida and am a LPN. I would like to go back to school to get my RN but my so...

As a matter of fact, I have. Unfortunately, the board of nursing in Tennesse isn't open 24/7. In the meantime I just posted a question. By the way... Tennessee has websites so people can utilize them. Also, how many times have you used the "low-t...

I know Illinois doesn't. Sorry:(
