  1. "Not sure what unit you will be hired into..."

    inshallamiami replied to TitaniumPlates's topic in General Nursing

    Again, it’s interesting the Nurse managers won’t respond to this post.

  3. Lifetime Stutter

    inshallamiami replied to Zombie_RN's topic in Nurse Disabilities

  4. Asked about citizenship during triage

    inshallamiami posted a topic in General Nursing

    A friend went to the ER, and while being triaged he was asked if he was a US citizen ( this was in the USA of course). Is this customary? I never recalled being asked when I was a patient, nor do I...

    inshallamiami replied to inshallamiami's topic in General Nursing

  7. Asked about citizenship during triage

    inshallamiami replied to inshallamiami's topic in General Nursing

    Well that makes sense, I just don't recall being asked about money, even in triage, but if that's how it's done now I'm not surprised! And so I guess it's customary. Huh. I'm not concerned about the...

  8. Asked about citizenship during triage

  9. Asked about citizenship during triage

    inshallamiami replied to inshallamiami's topic in General Nursing

    inshallamiami replied to Pumpkinn's topic in Nursing Professionalism
