Aimee03 BSN, RN

Hey Everyone! I'm a RN with 3 years of experience mainly pediatrics. My and my fiance will be moving to the Houston area. He will hopefully have a job in the Katy area. If I'm not moving until the end of the summer, when should I apply for a job? Any...

I moving from Birmingham, Al. I will start working on getting my TX nursing license. Thanks.

I'll get my flu mist. But the swine flu vaccine...I doubt it.

Are you a nurse? I spent 2 years in nursing school, where clinicals I had 1 maybe 2 patients. In the real world you have about on average 8 patients. BIG difference. Give me my 2 patients only and my views may be different. Clinicals and nursing scho...

The is a reason the work dream was in quotes. There is no perfect jobs, but some jobs are a better fit than others. Not perfect, just better. Else I get to stay where I am and continue to complain until things change

umm....NO! I don't thank so! I did NOT work my butt off to be a waitress. I didn't pay for college, study to pass the courses, and then pass boards for nothing. I didn't know I would not like my job, if I did I would have never became a nurse! I will...

I worked for CMS as a prn RN. I didn't have any benefits since I was prn. The pay was pretty good.

I'm one of those people who, most days, I don't enjoy my job. I don't quit because I can't afford to. This is NOT my "dream" job, but I have to survive- I need to earn a living. Nursing school/ Clinicals does NOT prepare you for the real world. Good ...

I understand your concerns. I was the synagis coordinator last year for my clinic and as much as I loved those kids, I am SO HAPPY someone else is doing it this year. Our Synagis rep. is awesome as well.

I agree Bevill doesn't seem to be discussed much on this board at all. CONGRATS to the both of you for getting in the program. I have two friends who applied this semester and did not get in. So I guess it is still quite difficult to get into. I know...

I was there two years ago. It will get better, I promise! It is called change. I think sometimes we try too hard without "thinking" about it. Just take a breath and be happy you have a preceptor who understands. You'll be fine. Good luck!

not to mention most of our 5 year-olds get 5 shots. It usually takes at least 2 nurses for that job.

"All live injected vaccines (MMR, varicella, and yellow fever) are recommended to be given subcutaneously." Source: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd-vac/combo-vaccines/mmr/faqs-mmr-hcp.htm

There are two vaccines that are NOT IM actually they are Sub-Q including MMR and the chickenpox vaccine (varicella). Polio can be given either IM or SC. I love the clinic where I work, so GOOD LUCK!

I'm not sure about the point system they currently use. It is a good, but hard program. They push you very hard, but you will learn a lot. I know it is hard to get into and highly competitive. Unless they changed something, they only accept classes i...

I've only been out of school for a little while, BUT the hospital is getting to me. I don't like working weekends and I do NOT work in a safe area. Since I've been there a girl has been raped and another girl was shot in her car about a block from wh...

In the hospital I had 10-14 pts with little to no help. I love the fast pace of the clinic and the hours. I feel like I work in a safer environment. In the clinic, I've had the chance to get to know my patients and their families.

I have WAY too often. It usually has something to do with a difficult patient or more often a "difficult" co-worker. Most days I love it, but there are still times I wonder.

I know this is old, BUT I have been at a pediatric clinic for a little over 9 months and I LOVE IT! I have waited so long to finally have a job that I love! Just an update.

I work in a clinic (pediatric) which is a division of a local hospital. We have 5 full-time doctors and 2 part-time. We have 6 full-time nurses. All the nurses are RNs. right now it is divided 3 ADN and 3 BSN. However I'm pursuing my BSN and two othe...

I go to Jacksonville state university. http://www.jsu.edu

I'm getting my BSN now and I do not have any clinical assignments.

i know you did not just accuse me of being in withdrawals. :madface:and your so smart, yes they did put cardiac pacer pads on and got the crash cart. it's called pain! and again, i have been seeing a neuro! he was at the hospital i went to. he is th...

Maybe you didn't read my previous post, I've had migraines for 4 years AND only went to the ER TWICE. Of coursse I have meds to treat my migrianes. I take a beta blocker daily to help prevent them and I take Frova to abort them. But if you know about...

I did call my own doctor but he was closed! It started on Christmas eve, Christmas day, and the day after! (Great way to spend the holidays.) I know the ER is not a PAIN CLINIC, but sometimes we migraine suffers have NO OTHER CHOICE. I'm a nurse, I'...
