  3. Losing HOPE!

  5. I couldn't do your job !

    I'm considering relocation, that's assuming I have passed the boards. Travel nurse is an option for those who have 1 year of experience. I have been contacted by numerous agencies, but as soon as they...
  8. Can I work as CNA with RN degree?

    I think I can't practice as LVN, just because the scope of practice differs dor RNs and LVNs. And it is all depends on licensure. Since CNA considered to be UP I think that it is possible for RN to...

  10. I guess, I just don't get it. Why hospitals wouldn't accept new grads? If there a nursing shortage and they are looking for experienced nurses why not to train a new grad? Is it laziness? Is it not...
  11. What do they mean? That if you are a nursing assistant you can't read or write?! Wow! This is pretty bad! How can they even assume
  12. Thank

  17. Thanks. I have already enrolled in ACLS and PALS course. I have the same plan. No one is taking applications for a month though. I have one year of experience as a student nurse in ER and Tele. When I...
  18. Thanks. It is not that I know everything. It just I have tried to do whatever I've been told. I'm on my own, with no one to support me. I'm tired, depressed and frustrated and do not know what to

    A book "First year as a nurse". I just graduated and was happy to get
  24. Desperately need some advice.

    As a nurse you are a mandatory reporter. I would take care of her physical needs first and if you suspect the abuse you are obligated to call an abuse hot line. You might be wrong in your suspicions,...
