  7. transferring pts. from ED to floor

    jojotoo replied to LCR_RN's topic in Emergency

    I can't even imagine what this means. If an ER nurse has 4 patients, and more come rolling in via EMS or through the front door, then she'll have 6, then 8, it just continues. There is no magic...

    jojotoo replied to HopeItWorksDNP's topic in Emergency

    One more thing - the trick to a good interview is to convince your potential employer that you have a lot to offer them and that you will be an asset to the

  13. What about me?

    jojotoo replied to tigress_8207's topic in General Nursing

    Who are you interviewing with? The manager of the department? Don't ask her about money matters. If she volunteers that info - ok, but save money questions for HR. And NO perfume/ cologne for the...

    jojotoo replied to TrudyRN's topic in General Nursing

    Sending a patient from the floor back to the ER to await a different bed assignment as an inpatient? This is something I've never heard of before. I'm sure this is an EMTALA

    jojotoo replied to TrudyRN's topic in General Nursing
