  3. Its Just not fair! Good Nurse getting fired (probably)

    I agree, on my old floor, I knew which people were pretty stable with their BP's and I usually didnt check it unless something was going on. But after a med error involving a cardiac med, I just...
  4. Its Just not fair! Good Nurse getting fired (probably)

  14. New grads in your workplace?

    I Just graduated in May and got my license a few days ago. While in school I was applying everywhere, but the only place to get back to me was a LTC facility. I interviewed right away and it seemed...
  15. Has anyone failed nursing and came back again?

    Yeah, its tough. There were several students who returned to the program with me, and a lot of them are having some difficulty. I almost failed again because I forgot to take a test. But after failing...
