  8. Biggest Pain or Problem

    NurseSpeedy - What about these, only bad thing is that it takes a month to ship from China: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000991776361.html?spm=a2g0o.tm139952.5612828150.3.110f9e68D6yGHY&gps-id=seaZeus&scm=1007.25281.150765.0&...
  9. Biggest Pain or Problem

    mmc51264 - I can definitely see that. Do you know where the nurses go, do they go to another department or nursing job or leave nursing altogether? CommunityRNBSN - That's crazy, do you think the management realizes this, or they just don't care? I...
  10. Biggest Pain or Problem

    StillSearchingRN I know of nurses that mental health issues turn out to be a basis for managers firing just beacause they don't like the person, even in remission. It's sad how some places treat nurses (and even people). Maybe it was a blessing you ...
  11. Reputable Agencies

    Thank you for that, I see what you mean. So the experience depends mostly upon the recruiter. Let me ask, what makes a good recruiter or a bad one? What qualities are best sought after when looking at agencies? Is it dependent upon the recruiter in w...
  12. Reputable Agencies

    I agree, but couldn't there be a fair mix with the two? The main purpose of business is to solve problems, I understand there are essentially two different parties with two different interests but there has to be a fair balance with that process that...
  13. Biggest Pain or Problem

    WOW!, that is a doozy. You may have a lawsuit but it would be a battle. Has this abuse been an issue throughout your career?
  14. Biggest Pain or Problem

    That is definitely difficult to do, especially knowing that there isn't much you can do about it. Do you ever have time to discuss their addiction with them?
  15. Biggest Pain or Problem

    Could you elaborate more on the maltreatment? I think I know where you are coming from but just want to hear your experience.
  16. Reputable Agencies

    I'm curious as to why you say this? What makes them 'bad' and what would make them better? I'm asking just because I am interested in learning.
  17. I have a couple questions regarding infectious disease jobs. I have a BSN with a year and half experience on a med/surg unit with charge and a year and half on an ICU unit. I currently travel in ICU settings. I have applied for an infectious disease ...
  18. Business Brainstorm

    The good thing about starting a business where there are reputable companies established, is that you know there is a market for this particular service/good. The negative aspect is that there is competition. You just have to make your business diffe...
  19. Business Brainstorm

    This isn't nursing related but I recently started working in real estate and although difficult at times, it's great. I currently rent out one home but am in the process of closing on another. Great supplemental income and if you choose the right ten...
  20. I am contracted through an agency and the only thing I couldn't do is bypass that agency and work through directly with the hospital. I think I can't work there for a few months after leaving this agency. Check the contract, it will let you know what...
  21. IV clinics for hangovers

    I would think it is a post-binge treatment, unless maybe if you signed a waiver pre drinking? The treatment would work better if it was done before bedtime but as everyone said, the liability issues with drunks and medical treatment is too risky. I ...
  22. How to land an infection preventionist position

    I did not get any of the positions I applied for. There were 2 or 3 I believe. They found internal applicants with similar experience as mine, which would be cheaper and easier to orient than a new applicant would. I have since then stopped applying ...
  23. Hello, I was just admitted into Simmons College FNP program. I breifly glanced at the tuition when applying, I basically just applied thinking I wouldn't be admitted and to give me a baseline and motivation to apply elsewhere, I was ready to go but t...
