  2. Anybody work at Flagstaff Medical Center?

    Neveranurseagain replied to silentRN's topic in Arizona Nursing

    hmmm...this website states seasonal nurses are paid $34.05 to start, and you have worked there 4 years and make $33 an hr?

  3. RN ethical dilemma

    Neveranurseagain replied to cwishes's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think this is unethical, especially for mental health patients. Sometimes it takes several sessions for things to sink in, or behavior to change. They may be in a clearer frame of mind the...

    Neveranurseagain replied to simirugrat's topic in Nursing Career

  5. Days off

    Neveranurseagain replied to muffin7's topic in Camp

    Most camps don't offer much time off, especially if you are only working for 2 weeks. In most states, camps are exempt from following labor law/working hours

  6. Nursing shortage no more?

    Neveranurseagain replied to Uniquemoi04's topic in General Nursing

    There has never been a nursing shortage-just a shortage of nurses that work as nurses. Check out how many nurses are licensed, then compare these figures to how many are still working as

  7. Can I handle transport nursing?

    Neveranurseagain replied to msgRN01's topic in General Nursing

    Bonine (meclizine) is available OTC and is non sedating--you might try it. But as a former paramedic/RN, I suggest you ride along for several shifts to be sure that this is the job for you. I used to...

  8. Organ Donation Opt Out

    Neveranurseagain replied to XB9S's topic in General Nursing

    An opt out system would be a much better approach in increasing the availability of organs. My 47 yo husband was an organ donor after being on life support from a medical incident. It made his death...

  9. CLEP testing

    Neveranurseagain replied to telenurse88's topic in General Nursing

  10. All I want for Christmas is a single payer plan!

    Neveranurseagain replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I sure hope onekidneynurse didn't go to a publicly funded nursing school. I find it ironic that some people who utilize cheap, public subsidized education feel the government should not also offer...

    Neveranurseagain replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I used to pay $1000 a month to cover me and my two teens, until I had trouble affording a roof over our head and food on the table and dropped my health insurance for me. Are you say that it would be...

  13. All I want for Christmas is a single payer plan!

    Neveranurseagain replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I would, but due to health insurance being a FOR PROFIT business here in the US, I can't even afford health insurance for myself! Take the profit out of healthcare, and we could afford it. Nursing and...

  14. All I want for Christmas is a single payer plan!

    Neveranurseagain replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

  15. All I want for Christmas is a single payer plan!

    Neveranurseagain replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Interesting article about Canadian MD VS USA MD's salaries. Worth a read if you are concerned about your wages dropping or reimbursement to MD's dropping due to a single payer system like Canada....

  16. Any changes in the market (exp. nurse)- Phx area

    Neveranurseagain replied to itismemonica's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I know crickets are not dangerous but one year our neighborhood had an invasion of them. We had weekly neighborhood BBQ's and awarded a prize to the family that caught the most inside their house in a...

  17. All I want for Christmas is a single payer plan!

    Neveranurseagain replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    So I guess the rest of us should die from lack of healthcare because we don't have connections? As the number one nation, how can this

    Neveranurseagain replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Activism, Healthcare

  19. Feasible to get Thanksgiving and Christmas off as new RN?

    Neveranurseagain replied to ATLbubbles's topic in General Nursing

    We just got used to scheduling our family holiday dinners the weekend before the actual holiday. Too many firefighters/paramedics/nurses in the family to even dream of everyone getting the day off. So...

  20. Anesthesia: The Last and First Thing You Heard

    Neveranurseagain replied to Tait's topic in General Nursing

    I don't remember going to sleep but when I woke up at one point I heard, "Oh sh!t! She's vomiting!" and wondered what poor patient they were talking about (it was me!). Then I woke up later with an...

  21. strange or odd postion or tasks

    Neveranurseagain replied to erwigg's topic in General Nursing

    I used to get the wonderful job (part of it was fun!) of walking a patient's seeing eye service dog twice during my shift. But then I had to clean up the mess. ;

  22. When should I take Microbiology while in the 2010 El Centro Nursing Program?

    Neveranurseagain replied to max0602's topic in General Nursing

    Neveranurseagain replied to StudyinginCT's topic in Emergency

    One thing you will learn in the EMT-B class is boundries. It is important to understand your limitations that will be imposed on you as an EMT-B. There is no crossing boundaries--In most states, EMT-B...

    Neveranurseagain replied to StudyinginCT's topic in Emergency

    Have you tried local community colleges? Here in my area the class is offered every semester and runs less than $100. Speaking as a former EMT/Paramedic that is now an RN, there is a world of...
