  1. So Sick Of This Nurses Eat The Young Crap

    Yes it happened. I was the supervisor on duty and she simply panicked and called 911 for backup. She went to a private expensive school where she was a customer and didn't think that she would have to...
  2. C=RN, I just need to get that C

    My concern is the quiet room with extra time. You will get neither on a job. I forsee a bullying/Nurses eat their young thread if she lands a first job judging from her sarcastic response to
  3. Well our professor made it very clear that there were four students in the group but the same grade for
  4. I HATE group projects. A GP ruined my last birthday. My work was done a week early to accommodate my night out with my hubby. When the others turned in their share it was obviously not sufficient per...
  5. So Sick Of This Nurses Eat The Young Crap

    I had a new grad attempting to flush a G-Tube. As a rookie she didn't know that the answer was not to simply apply more pressure when the tube wouldn't flush. Of course the tube "backfired" and chunky...
  6. So Sick Of This Nurses Eat The Young Crap

    I didn't compare terrorism to new graduates. I addressed the PP who said that the actions of a few do not affect the perception of an entire group. Both of my examples are a perfect representation of...
  7. So Sick Of This Nurses Eat The Young Crap

    Tell that to a priest that is always suspected of being a pedophile. Or try being a young middle eastern man and boarding a plane these days. It is not on the person suspicious of them when THEY are...
  8. Nurse Clueless

    I did once when working with a male RN BSN up north who didn't understand things I knew when I was a CNA. It got so bad that I went to the DON and she blew me off. He quit shortly thereafter and went...
  9. Easter??

    At my old job, double time. At my new job zilch. It just
  10. Pre-Nursing student STRESSING PLEASE HELP

    Also, make sure your true weakness isn't math. That was actually my problem. When I straightened out my math issues the chem flowed
  11. Pre-Nursing student STRESSING PLEASE HELP

    While I am no chemistry master and don't use it in my daily nursing practice it does help determine how well you will do in other classes that ARE pertinent to daily nursing practice. I would tell you...
  12. Are there any LPN programs in your area? You could arguably get your LPN and do an LPN to RN in far less time than that. Maybe even a paramedic program and then Excelsior Colleges Paramedic to RN 2...
  13. I have never been asked for anything but my license and my BON does not list the info. To my knowledge no employer has ever checked but why in the world risk it ? Just
  14. RN forging doc's signature

    As a seasoned nurse I am quick to not be dragged down by a coworkers mistakes. They would not do the same for you. Every tub needs to sit on its own
  15. 2 and 3. 2 puts the student/nurse at risk and 3 puts everyone else at
  16. RN forging doc's signature

    I would suggest not confronting him. If you speak to the nurse don't do it alone. You never know how he may react and if he gets in REAL trouble(like reported to the board for practicing medicine...
  17. Would you have called out?

    I have worked places where nurses accumulated a couple hundred hours of PTO because you could never get a day off when you requested it. I have called in when I knew that I had something important...
  18. Would you have called out?

    I wouldn't have called out because you are setting yourself up. They will expect you to blow off work for them anytime they come to town. Bad
  19. Been there. Went through that very thing 20+ years ago. 96 average in classes including sim labs. She made it no secret that she hated me. Suddenly we get to clinicals and I flunk the FIRST DAY. When...
  20. first RN paycheck?

    Made a stank face because after 15 years as an LPN the bump was
  21. Help! I look young!

    Well I did look young and I was actually only 20 when I graduated and passed my NCLEX. It was HARD but it helped that I knew a lot about a lot and adopted a no nonsense attitude at work. It was the...
  22. She s been a nurse for 10 years already. What's so funny
  23. Why does every comment need to be bubble wrapped to be accepted ? They didn't have non-punitive methods when I started out so if you jeopardized a patients life/safety you caught pain and suffering...
  24. PS whatever you don don't say dayshift or divorce. As a matter of fact I would say never utter the word divorce to your wife at all. It is an ugly seed that should never be
  25. First off relax. I know that you are stressed but look at your schedules. A 3 month old and 4 year old ? Work and school ? I have a 2 yo, 3yo, work 12 hour nights and attend school. Hubby works full...
