I just got a positon in med-surg in January and I just completed orientation. I love, love, love the people that I work with. The nurses are very nice, helpful, the techs are awesome and for the most part many of the doctors are very pleasant.None of...

I just saw an ad today in the jobs section on http://www.orlandosentinel.com for this agency Avant Healthcare Professionals( http://www.avanthealthcare.com ) who is currently looking for nurses to work in the middle east.

Sooo sad but it happens all the time. 20/20 had a big story about that sometime last month about walgreens and a another pharmacy med errors. One mother picked what she believed was dilatin but was given metformin for her 2year old daughter, sadly t...

Thank you Tazzi and critterlover for your inputs :)

Hello everyone. Help. I have a few questions. I have an interview this week with a internal medicine doctor who is in need of a rounding nurse. What exactly do they do??? I currently work in med-surg(1 1/2 experience) and I have seen a nurse who rou...

You know what Ruby Vee with the scenario you described with that new nurse wanting to give you bp meds when BP was 82/50, and HCTZ when u were dehydrated from vomiting, NPO, and my IV rate was only 50cc/hour is a matter of being sooo task oriented, b...

http://www.watchtower.org is the official website for more info.

Maxim healthcare services (http://www.maxhealth.com) agency also hiring nurses for flu shots now.

On craigslist, I found an ad for flu shot nurses needed last week. I clicked on the link and sent the recruiter an email with my resume attached. The company is called testmed (http://www.testmed.com) They are in Cali,FL,Illinois,missouri,ohio and wa...

Congrats JoeB, Welcome to the RN club! I'm glad u didnt give up. I know you well be a wonderful nurse!

I have a friend who was in a similar position. She didnt let it get her down. She challenged the LPN boards got her license and worked as a LPN until she was able to get back into a RN program. Keep your head up.

I saw the keiser ad on tv for their new nursing program and deceided to call to get more info for a friend that wanted to leave FL. hosp nursing school. I asked all the usual questions:cost, # of people accepted, etc. The operated wouldn't tell me, s...

All dillards have crocs and Journeys in the mall. You can also buy them on ebay like me. I won the bid for aspens(no holes) brand new for 19.99. They tend to run small in my experience depending on the style. The ones with holes I can wear my normal ...

At first, I too was on the fence on whether I wanted to be a RN or a RDH. I choose nursing even though I love dentistry because I realized that I would be pretty limited as a dental hygienist. Then as someone else mentioned, what will you do when you...

I loved our nursing t-shirts. On the front it said student nurse. On the back it said " Not tonight, I have clinicals in the morning." Then there was another one that said "are you man enough to be a nurse".

OMG. Have you guys heard about this rejection hotline(there local numbers for different cities) ? When my cousin dialed the number and let me listen to the message, I almost fell off my chair I was :rotfl: so hard. I wish I had this phone number a ...

This is how it works. Say you are in the club or just out & about doing you're thing and someone is trying to get your phone number, but sadly they will not get the hint that you do not want to give them your phone number or can't take NO! for an...

I have gained about 10 and 4 UTIs!!! I guess one for each semester . It must be the stress because I have never had a UTI before.

FL. Hospital fired 25 nurses for not showing up or refusing to work during hurricane Frances. Others were suspended for not working OT or coming in late. My friend's sister was one of the 25 nurses who was fired. She was on vacation when they called ...

Yes, it is a shame. Especially when there are extra empty beds lining the hallways and numerous carts of clean linens that were there but they weren't allowed to use.

yes, it is the Adventist health system, a part of the seventh-day adventist church.

3rdshiftguy even Wal-mart boarded up a closed a day before Frances hit. FL hospital was very accomodating to the employees during Charley but when Frances came thru they flipped the script. I just returned to work yeasterday and a few co-workers of ...

So is anesthesia the only one that can administer the blood?

I have recently discovered an oral contraceptive that allows us to have only 4 periods per year rather than 13. This is great for me because to control my periods I used to just skip the 4th week in the 28wk pack and move on to a new pack to avoid ha...

Thank you expanding my knowledge. I greatly appreciate it. All though I did think the triangle was purple and you were a Jehovah's Witness. Gosh, Hitler was something else.
