sorry to hear!! I wish you luck, just keep applying! at least now you know you don't like that right? I also attempted something like this. I worked for a well known food mftr and it was awful! waiting around for "something to go wrong" and star...

If you have these concerns, I would speak with a counselor at school and see what the policy is. If something ever happens that you are needing to report, when you make a report it is a good idea to state that you would like a follow up regarding wha...

no need to be rude.

I could make a super long reply, but it would all boil down to me trying to explain you need to speak up! if you don't now, you will continue to take and be treated as such. My advice is to ensure that you have an unbiased witness present for such co...

First I want to apologize that the traveler did this to you, as a traveler for several years this give the rest of us a bad rep! shame on that person!! also, I agree with other post, stick up for yourself and don't accept assignment. you know w...

I agree that its usually 2 hours. (saying that, I am a traveler for many years now), had current facility tell me I "called out late", when I called in 3 hrs early. so I always ask still.

yes, don't take this on yourself, you don't want to put yourself in a situation where your risk yourself or retaliation issues.

1. Co-worker called, she was going to be taking my load of pts for noc shift that SHE picked up on her own, and I happened to answer the phone, she said she didn't know that this particular movie was on tv and she was going to watch the rest of it be...

thanks for the info, but i was just seeing how you were doing honestly. i have a great job, and a huge timeline ahead of me for my career. heck, if i was to get another job, that would be bad bad bad

this recently came up in place of work d/t the tympanic not being as accurate as it needs to be for our population of pts, well, it was ordered before anyone else was aware of it. kinda of annoyed btw. this one states you need to wait 10 full minute...

u have your adn, you passed your boards? you can work anywhere!! (where i am anyhow! lol)

where i live we have a "critical care university" that takes nurses of whatever status and puts them thru another program that you work and learn each floor in the hospital, then its a job in ICU. not that you have to stay in ICU, but its a start. an...

only one comment, if you dont like it, didnt like, you wont grow to like it. please dont do it unless your heart is in it.

i do know a co-worker that grad from adn-rn, she couldnt find an rn job to save her life for about a yr. she passed boards, continued to work as cna. she was held to the standards of rn, and could get in "trouble" as an rn for something she did as a ...

thats another reason for not doing LTC. they are so short right now where i am, and NOT safe in any manner or respect. we have one ltc that i could tell horror stories about,, but keep my mouth shut. i would demand to see the manual and copy it, if s...

i cant say we dont have several meds ordered for many of our pts due to the surgerys that we do and the random admits that we get. i feel i really know my docs well, w/ the exception of the random dang hospitalists and the frustrating teaching servi...

i agree with the other post above. They should be able to do it right after you and get a correct and close enough number to be able to access you properly. if they disagree, then i would go to the dean of nursing stat and get this figured out. if wo...

So there are a lot of sites that offer "FREE CME'S", but do any of you have any great sites that you use for continuing education? I want to continue to find sites because the ones i have used do not really update very often with new cme's that are r...

I am absolutly ticked about all of this. we are supposed to be doing this as well. we have these little clocks that are wipe off things in each pt room on the boards we are supposed to inital each time we are in there. you know what, AINT GONNA HAPPE...
