  2. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    nurse15dc replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    Thanks for starting this thread and for all info/experiences you have generously shared chuckster. I'm surprised that you have to take cultural diversity considering all the other classes you have...

  3. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    nurse15dc replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    I'm amazed that as stated on this thread it took some up to 5 months to get admitted and get a DAR from OU. They should make it easier for

  4. To those who want to leave nursing

    nurse15dc replied to PunkBenRN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    An inarticulate "Wow wow wow" back to you! I guess by "ben" you meant been. Have you or OP PunkBen ever EVEN bothered to to notice how much YOUNG nurses EAT THE OLD!!! Get over yourself. We who...

  5. Diversity.. at what price?

    nurse15dc replied to Been there,done that's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  6. failed pre-employment drug screen

    nurse15dc replied to chk888's topic in General Nursing

    Right. It seems odd that a pre employement drug screen gets reported to the BON. OP were you already on BON discipline. Or are you already in a diversion drug program when you relapsed. No...

  7. Why is it so hard to get a Job?

    nurse15dc replied to jazzy25's topic in General Nursing

    I honestly think there is just an oversupply of nurses. Hospitals also seem to post more jobs than they are actively hiring for. Persistence and improving your nursing skills should eventually pay...

  8. BSN but want to take LPN/LVN exam. HELP!

    nurse15dc replied to quebby224's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    https://allnurses.com/nclex-discussion-forum/finished-bsn-but-598783.html You need to ask in the Philippines International Forum many are in your shoes. To work in the US you need a green card or a...

  9. Who else loves their job

    nurse15dc replied to johnny depp23's topic in General Nursing

    I'm curious due to some of your other questions. Where do you work JohnnyDepp23? Are you a

  10. need some advise regarding workplace harassment

    nurse15dc replied to hardware syndrome's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't know about Canada but in the US employers retaliating by issuing a complaint to the Board of Nursing against an RN who complained is sadly VERY common. You might need a lawyer. Your license...

  11. accidental fingerstick

    nurse15dc replied to chiuli's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry but I don't get something. Is this your second accidental needle stick? Did you have a pt with MRSA and CA and stick

  12. nursing program without waitlist

    nurse15dc replied to sue19's topic in General Nursing

    Be sure and ask whatever school you are thinking of how many new grads get jobs. There are many new grad RNs without work because we have graduated too many. I think some school will take your...

  13. Sleeping on the job

    nurse15dc replied to mairose15's topic in General Nursing

    Your license mandates that you report this nurse. If you don't report it her actions are on

  14. For those a BSN or MSN acquired online, did you face discrimination when job hunting

    nurse15dc replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in General Nursing

    Right. It's not "admitting hiring discrimination" if a hiring manager values a University degree over an online degree! The OP asked the question in hopes of getting honest responses. I can...

  15. Finally understand the Facebook no-no's

    nurse15dc replied to raebabelvn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't think the information is as private as users think too. About the posting of status reports-I wonder why people think everyone is interested in the mundane details of their lives. Another...

  16. Is nursing shortage a myth?

    nurse15dc replied to Angitia's topic in General Students

    Your suspicions and logic is spot on. There should be more blogs and articles like yours in the media to get the word out.. But like the others said we are responsible for picking careers that have...

  17. RN to BSN from USM online

    nurse15dc posted a topic in General Nursing

    Curious if anyone here is doing the RN to BSN from USM online. I could attend USM on campus but online programs might be easier to manage with kids and f/t job. There are so many online school...

  18. 3 dui's in mi

    nurse15dc replied to lifeistweet's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Exactly what I was wondering when I read OP's post. But it sounds typical of unfair things I've seen in BON discipline. I've known a few newbie RN's who made mistakes where no one was hurt. But...

  19. Have noticed racist threads right here in the past two days!

    nurse15dc replied to lpn2icu's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree the NJ hospital thread had a great, interesting, unifying debate going and was not racist. That's why it continued for over 132 responses. The "puppy mill" comment was not on the thread...

  20. Have noticed racist threads right here in the past two days!

    nurse15dc replied to lpn2icu's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Just noticed the thread about the NJ hospital that garnered 132 responses is gone. Why let that many people put their time into responding then suddenly delete it after 132 responses? That thread...

  21. Have noticed racist threads right here in the past two days!

    nurse15dc replied to lpn2icu's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The 'their team' comment reminds me how frustrating it was working in a large Houston hospital with a lot of Filipino's. Once a month a sheet of hard to fill shifts would come out and we were all...

  22. What are some psychological effects of being a nurse?

    nurse15dc replied to smiles9960's topic in General Nursing

    I can relate to massrn116's comment of feeling like I constantly have to watch my back at work. And maybe a few other psychological changes. Two people very close to me who don't know each other...

  23. Get used to it... nursing is only going to get worse!!

    nurse15dc replied to DebRN06's topic in General Nursing

    Sometimes NM is stuck between a rock and a hard place. I wouldn't want that job. Demands for cost cutting from higher ups vs pt and nurse safety. But when they show no empathy snippy replies like in...

  24. Registered Dietitian?

    nurse15dc replied to fuzzywuzzy's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that there is much less of a need for RD's so their salaries tend to be

  25. What should your title look like?

    nurse15dc replied to moonshadeau's topic in General Nursing

    To me it doesn't matter, I go with the facilities policy. For my name badge I'm OK with whatever sequence and initials the hospital uses. Some just want RN some hospitals add degrees and...
