  2. new on forum and need help in north carolina!!!

    Hey EKIRKPAT~ Don't be frustrated by the non-representation of Carolina hospitals. Look for NOVANT healthcare. They have at least one or two hospitals in Charlotte. I'll bet they have a pile of listings for jobs too. I work at a NOVANT site in Winsto...
  3. ICU nurse needs some neuro info...

    Don't cardiac pt.s experience heightened sexual inhibition??
  4. Why is everyone on Protonix

    All of theses answers while correct do miss an important point; HCL in the stomach is there to kill bugs via low pH. These inhibitors nix the low pH and thereby give rise to bug growth. Sucralfate will bind with HCl, preventing the stress ulcers w/o ...
  5. Hard to get hired?

    If your male Nurse Graduate is having trouble getting hired...then perhaps HE is saying something that triggers a problem with the hiring folk??
  6. Nurse practitioners in the neuro ICU

    ~~We have four in our 14 bed Neurosurgical ICU here at Emory Hospital in Atlanta. This is a large teaching hospital with the CDC down the street on the edge of campus. Apparently the NP's here do quite a bit of assessment/progress notes and orders. I...
  7. New grad pay scales around the state

    I think the topic is appropriate for an open forum. The Hospitals don't want you to know what each other make$. The hospital I just left in Arlington had new grads starting at about $23/h. up from $21. I didn't see any gender bias or any other bias ...

    ~~From the male Nurses side~ ~~~Only thing that would concern me would be the potential for infection. ~~~To me it would seem that you'd want to keep the natural, gravity fed toilet working, with all the Natural Flora, even attached flora regularly ...
  10. New Grad sign-on bonus negotiation

    My best friend sells real estate and she thinks I'm nuts for not trying. Makes sense to me if you're willing to accept a no for the bonus and a no for a position, probably at nearly the same time. I recently visited the city where I'm moving to ...
  11. Double entendres

    ~~~~Thanks, I needed that~~~~ ~~~~~~~:roll
  12. I dont get it. We lighten their loads enormously, give meds, iv and inj, do all assesments ,paperwork,almost everything and they give us such a hard time. ~~my clinical-mates complain all the time about the nursing staff. But i've yet to have a pro...
  13. Nurses rat on nurses

    ~~Tell us more about the silence thing...that sounds very interesting??
  14. Promethazine IV Question

    FDA site says it's IV legal. I've always been taught to diute then push over two minutes. My clinical instructor showed me in her reference where i didn't have to do that for 25mg or less the other day, but allowed me to push it my way anyway. From w...
  15. Do you have to be "super smart" to be a nurse?

    Woo hoo~~123!! Whats that mean?? IQ is what intelligence tests measure..a quotient. That high IQ tells you, you will probably do well in your pursuit of subject matter in school, but it doesn't clue you in on whether your dexterity skills, critical t...
