  1. should i study for 2nd semester finals or go to my grandmothers 75th anniversary?

    Batman24 replied to mashamontago's topic in General Nursing

    Grandma!! Study in every spare second you have from now until then. A little extra in the morning, a little extra in the evening, skip fave show to study, etc. See if others will drive so you can...

  2. Could I run some NCLEX-style questions by this forum?

    Batman24 replied to x3xsolxdierx3x's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Go for it.

  3. 30 people laid off of my hospital (Non-nursing staff)

    Batman24 replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. I think it will get much worse before it gets better. My husband worked for Lehman and was blessed to be part of the transfer to Barclays. Many of those we know haven't been half as lucky. He...

  4. 30 people laid off of my hospital (Non-nursing staff)

    Batman24 replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    All those laid off will be in my thoughts and prayers. My heart goes out to all of them. I'm so happy you work surrounded by kind and supportive people. Makes work so much more enjoyable when that...

  5. I'm just so sick of all the DRAMA (long)

    Batman24 replied to Spritenurse1210's topic in General Nursing

    If management knows and isn't doing something about it I would start looking for another job. It's a shame that you will be the one to leave but your health and happiness come first. It's not worth...

  6. shouldnt precepting be teaching , not working?

    Batman24 replied to Venetian's topic in General Nursing

    I would see how things go with the new preceptor. It sounds like they are trying to get you the help you need. Tell your new perceptor exactly how you feel and ask questions when you are unsure. I...

  7. Is it time to get rid of 12 hour shifts?

    Batman24 replied to country mom's topic in General Nursing

    I love 12 hour shifts and wouldn't want to work anything but them. I love having 4 days off a week and my body can definitely handle the long hours. If someone can't handle the long hours and their...

  8. A memorial to one of our posters: Josh Harmon

    Batman24 replied to harmon642's topic in General Nursing

    I'm so sorry for your loss. He sounds like a wonderful man. I bet he's a lot like his father. He died a hero and I'm grateful to him and all those that fight for us. Their courage knows no bounds....

  9. new corporation investigating health care workers

    Batman24 replied to CRNI-ICU20's topic in General Nursing

    I find it overboard and would look for another job

  10. end of my rope...trying to tie a knot and hang on!

    Batman24 replied to sweetieann's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like you are only working one night right now so I would tell them you can only work days as of your next schedule. That will allow you to keep all your day shifts and perhaps force them to...

  11. end of my rope...trying to tie a knot and hang on!

    Batman24 replied to sweetieann's topic in General Nursing

    Agree with the others...your shifts are killing you. It needs to stop ASAP. I would tell them you aren't doing the night shift anymore and will pick up a day shift if one is available. I would be firm...

  12. Telling it how it is.

    Batman24 replied to twistedpupchaser's topic in General Nursing

    I think that's the crux of the whole scenario. You didn't know them for two minutes and start being blunt but had taken care of them for a bit and felt comfortable enough to be honest. You also threw...

  13. Your patient fell? You need to be disciplined!

    Batman24 replied to casperx875x's topic in General Nursing

    That's what I would do too. You are in essence putting the ball back in their court where it belongs. I hope all the nurses in your facility follow suit. They

  14. Your patient fell? You need to be disciplined!

    Batman24 replied to casperx875x's topic in General Nursing

    You are making too much sense. Can't have that in hospitals. It scares them. If they had one brain cell combined of course they would hire extra nurses but they tallied up their brain cells and only...

  15. Karma Rocks

    Batman24 replied to racing-mom4's topic in General Nursing

    Karma Baby!! Good for you!! It's nice to read a happy ending like this one. Shame on the gossip monger but now that she's been schooled let's hope she learned her lesson for the future. Send her a...

  16. 40 year old starting NS and taking the ACT

    Batman24 replied to powers2004's topic in General Nursing

    Congrats on your decision to be a nurse!! I am posting a link to the student forum because when I was in school I found it to be an invaluable source of info. It has info on different entrance tests,...

  17. Help! Being stalked by a resident!!!

    Batman24 replied to Sonjailana's topic in General Nursing

    Now I'm cracking up again. TY. I needed that.

  18. Help! Being stalked by a resident!!!

    Batman24 replied to Sonjailana's topic in General Nursing

    You crack me up. lol I'm going with C. Texting him back is prob even better at present. Keep the proof and it would also be more comfortable for the OP and

  19. Cna Vs. Medical Assistant

    Batman24 replied to gkbroaro's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Pls don't think you will be making as much as a RN as a MA. I've seen that posted here twice in the last few days and schools are really misguiding their MAs to get them to enroll under false...

  20. Help! Being stalked by a resident!!!

    Batman24 replied to Sonjailana's topic in General Nursing

    I really think you would be wise to just address this with the resident directly. This is certainly isn't stalking at present. Let him know you flat out aren't interested and don't want him to contact...

  21. Nurse manager says you can't refuse iv

    Batman24 replied to paintedbison's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Good advice. I wouldn't put one in either. I'm not risking my license nor am I going to put myself into a position where I could be charged. They have the right to

  22. CMA Student Fooled...

    Batman24 replied to pagandeva2000's topic in General Nursing

    Poor thing. She is going to end up with a whole lot of debt and in a job that pays a fraction of what she thinks she will be getting. A few calls around for the going rate for MAs would have done the...

  23. Head to Toe assessment

    Batman24 replied to madwife2002's topic in General Nursing

    That's absolutely absurd. They are penalizing all RNs on your floor because one was complained about?! Idiocy runs rampant at your facility. What a freakin' joke. I've never had that happen but I'd be...

  24. Does ProCPR "fly" with school?

    Batman24 replied to jschut's topic in General Nursing

    My school requires AHA. Pls call and check what your school requires as it appears most have a specific course they want you to take. Good luck.

  25. Lawsuit Against The College Network

    Batman24 replied to mdhammons's topic in Online Distance Learning
