MED cart Wars. LTC
Anyone have any stories pertaining to this? I never had a problem for 8 years and now I'm in a war. I'm not talking about what's on top and how it's arranged. I'm talking about the items in each drawer. I'm the full time day nurse with a recent hire of a brand new grad who is full time now also who has never worked in LTC ( her first real job). The other nurses at our facility are laughing over this but I have to live it. When other nurses have worked my unit nothing ever was changed or put out of place. This is actually The way I received this unit when I first started years ago. And kept it the same. When i work other units i dont change their Med carts. Anyone?

Very informative, thank you.- UOIT Bridging RPN to RN
Well hopefully soon, just letting you know the decisions are finally being made...- UOIT Bridging RPN to RN

Nothing yet, also....I also applied in January. No information packages, nothing. Got a phone call once, but my phone wasn't working properly so I don't know what they said; it was like a courtesy call is all I could hear.- Nursing Anxiety
Sounds like burn-out. Seek help. Anxiety attacks; even when you feel your life around you is fine.....you need a break; or need to pace yourself..... Like the person stated above; seek help. Do not hesitate; do it now! Think of yourself for once and look after yourself~ What good are you to anyone if you can't take care of yourself! You do count! Please seek help now.

Is it really 2 years for an RN education where you are? Here in Canada, its 4 years full-time for a RN, and 2 years full time for a RPN. Where are you located?? :)- Top 10 Myths of the "MURSE"
So, does this mean that a female nurse is called a: Furse ? Male=M= Murse; Female=F= Furse ??- Nobody in this county will hire an LPN.
Here in Canada also, specifically Ontario. Went to a job fair recently. There were only about 8 recruiters there. The ones we spoke to either had jobs for HCA or RN's, NO RPN/LPN 's at all!!! There were asking me for my HCA certificate, as they had immediate jobs but nothing for RPN/LPN's. Unreal! I am already registered to go on and take the RN route with a University here. I thought that after 3 years of part time study to get my diploma, I would be able to use it. Now I find I am going backwards with a diploma, as they are now only asking for my HCA certificate! HINDSIGHT !!! Now, the option...another 3 years to get my degree!! Do I go on?? Will they look at my BScN the same way they look at my diploma?? I hear that alot of degree RN's are now going for their masters!! Does it end? I know nursing is all about keeping updated, but how does one get into nursing when they keep changing the requirements! Ahhhhhh is all I can say.... Guess, its another 3 years of schooling for me!- RPN to Bscn
I guess it all depends on the college and their program. Believe me I wish the whole program was I year only. With Centennial you attend their College then apply to Ryerson afterwards. From the Centennial bridge you need a GPA of 3.0 inorder to apply to the university. From there you complete the final 2 years of the RN program.- where are the jobs in toronto??
dear please god just open up this 'ing market soon!!! (from a new grad) p.s. love you!:redbeathe - Why do mean/crabby people become nurses??
