  1. Waltersboro SC

    I am a nurse who was raised in Walterboro and worked at the hospital for about a year. First off the town is BORING. Everything closes at 9-10pm except the Wal-mart they just got not to long ago. The only real activity is the moving theatre which ...
  2. Northside Hospital in Atlanta, GA

    Yeah!! I found someone interested in Northside Hospital also. I will be moving to ATL in two weeks and I am trying to find the travel agency that Northside works with since Medstaff isn't one of them. I have met one lady that use to work there and...
  3. Ever Walked Out On An Assignment????

    WOW!! I just signed up for my first travel assignment and now I am scared. I hope you are able to get out of that bad situation. Good Luck!!
  4. Time criteria to be considered "experienced"

    Typically job postings ask for one year of experience.
  5. Almost 80 working RN on med/surg??!!

    If you are that concern with her working may be offering her some assistance may be the route to go. Also, by staying active is the best way to keep your faculties.
  6. Nurse nicked cervix with fingernail??

    WHAT!! Highly unlikely. A small scratch on your cervix from what must have been a witches fingernail won't make you have to have a c/s. Your cervix received laceration foir different reasons and does just fine, birth, pap smear, kinky sex. I am f...
  7. Night Shift Survival

    Night nurses rock!! I have worked nights for the last 8 years and I love it. Night nurses are mor laid back and easier to get along with. I don't think I could do it with children. I normally get home at 8 a.m. and sleep til 5 or at least stay in...
  8. do you have ACLS?

    I am personally working on becoming ACLS certified. My hospital does not make it mandatory, but should since we are high risk and have our own PACU. I think it is a wise investment.
  9. Don't tell. Wait a while and see how things go for a while.
  10. Can you be an OB RN with an Assoc. Degree?

    I've been and OB nurse for the last 6 years with an ADN license and high risk facility. However, many of my coworkers have BSN, but we make the same pay. With the nursing shortage, hospitals must take what they can get. Go for it!!
  11. What do patients say that irks you?

    Right on z's playa!! But I think I have one of the best. I am from the south and the way people ask for things really trip me out. My favorite is "you can't get me no water!! What tha? Do you really think that is going to make me run out the roo...
  12. What's the weirdest baby name?

    chlamydia, king david, & miss greta. Poor kids!!
  13. L&D nights just as busy as days?

    I've worked L&D nights at a busy teaching facility and let me tell you it is just as busy 1. less staff, 2. less resources, 3. no one available to come in an help out, 4. transfers from other hospitals and 5. inductions are done at night also. Y...
  14. I'm resigning my job today, need support & advice!!

    I totally understand how you feel about "quitting" your job because I am the same way (always try to stick things out). However, life is toooo short to do anything that you do not have to do or doesn't make you happy. If you are not in a financial ...
