1. Is it True About Florida?

   Cherybaby replied to RN <><'s topic in General Nursing

   I hear this rumor every few years or so. Nothing has ever come of it. Haven't heard anything from the Florida Board of Nursing to confirm any such thing. I wouldn't worry about

2. Terrified of killing my patients/making mistakes/missing something important

   Cherybaby replied to Lola77's topic in First Year After Licensure

   What you are experiencing is completely normal. If any nurse ever tells you she/he did not feel stress during their first few months on a floor...they are fibbing to ya! It's very overwhelming to...

4. Recreational THC = now starting IPN!

   Cherybaby replied to Honest&Hopeful&Hur's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Don't depend too much on the education route. It is something that IPN "offers", yet in my year and a half experience with the Nursing Board (of Florida), IPN and IOP programs...i have yet to see it...

5. Oakhill Hospital, brooksville

   Cherybaby replied to Lanegirl's topic in General Nursing

   I worked for their sister hospital, Spring Hill Regional, for many years. Oakhill hospital is a wonderful hospital...though it gets a bad rap for some reason. They have always been open to hiring...

7. Pre- employment drug testing

   Cherybaby replied to VM85's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Absolutely no offense taken. Everyones experience with IPN and the Nursing Board varies greatly. So far, my experience with them has been positive. However, I have seen other nurses go through real...

8. I'm Worried

   Cherybaby replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

   Keep up that worry and you will be on the receiving end of one of your own exams! :) You're probably doing just fine. If you weren't, someone would have said something to you by now. They are giving...

9. Would you have done this differently?

   Cherybaby replied to Katie5's topic in General Nursing

   Yes, but when you brought that "weakness" in for comparison, you are now opening the door for a lot of other people to get written up. You might not have meant it as a way of reporting people, but...

10. Would you have done this differently?

    Cherybaby replied to Katie5's topic in General Nursing

    I absolutely would not have done this. You made a mistake. Own it. Don't drag other people into it. I think that if you were truly more concerned about the error being made as opposed to the fact...

11. If you have rec' d the H1N1 vaccine - please report

    Cherybaby replied to CrunchRN's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't get it due to allergies, but my daughter who is 6 months pregnant received it with no side effects. My son tested positive for h1n1 three weeks ago, so is no longer eligible for the vaccine....

12. Would I still be considered as a new nurse after a year?

    Cherybaby replied to camarosie's topic in General Nursing

    I think you would still be considered a new nurse even with the one year title. You haven't worked yet, so you don't have any experience to speak of. Most employers are looking for experience. I...

    Cherybaby replied to Cherybaby's topic in General Nursing

    Absolutely did not criticize her on any level whatsoever. I would never chastise someone for being different than I am. Please don't miss the purpose of my post. It was not to assume that I am...

15. When A Nurse Can't Offer a Hug...

    Cherybaby replied to Cherybaby's topic in General Nursing

    I guess it's a little selfish on my part as well. I love getting and giving hugs...and like Sue said, even from the funky ones! I just can't fathom simply standing there staring at someone who is...
