I am a credentialed epic trainer who is needing a little help. I am searching for a way to get into Epic for Certification training. From my understanding the only thing that is needed is a sign off from a training manager stating that its fine for m...

I was wondering if anyone is working at Lehigh Regional Medical Center?How is it? How is the patient load? What type of charting system are you using? Thanks!

What is the new procedure? Instead of telling her you cant do it can you come up with another way that lightens the load off of you but still gets the results?

We are using an EMR, it depends on the specific EMR. I LOVE our system. Do you know which system your going to?

Everyone else around us will hear me talking to her, other nurses will watch and look but she still ignores me. (My friend wanted me to clarify - I am actually posting for her - she is a tech/secretary on this unit, not that I think it should make a...

How can I get a nurse to not ignore me. I will say her name and tell her something but she does not acknowledge that I am speaking. I only talk to her about valid work issues, this is not socialization. Thanks!

All wondering how the test went?

I never talk to her unless its regarding a patient or somehow work related. Usually she is just chit chatting with another nurse. I do not interrupt when its regarding a patient but I can hear when she is just talking about her hair/nails and I feel ...

I will be standing at the desk. Shes sitting at the nurse station also and is usually speaking with another nurse. Tapping her on the shoulder would be a bit weird and probably not welcome. Any other ideas?

I have tried that, thanks though. I hope someone has something else I can use!

I have heard of botox as a treatment actually.

Guys I really need help with this assignment. I have searched everywhere for a site to tell me how Jean Watson came up with her Theory of human Caring but I can not find one. Does anyone know where this information may be?

The reason that your preceptor knows what is going on all the time is probably because she has been doing it WAY longer then you have. I felt the same way when I started out but I soon started learning what test went with what labs, when patients wou...

i do not have a license in the state but i have already applied. i would start the appilcation process as soon as possible because the first nurse manager that i interview with stated that it could take weeks to go through. thanks for all the replys ...

I am moving to another state and am currently looking for a job. I know that the market is not that great out there so I have been putting out a few applications. I have gotten two calls back so far. One I did an interview with the NM on the spot and...

It's Florida. Thanks for the advice guys!

I prefer not to say what state it is. Has anyone actually done that, accepted the first job then got the second job and left the first one? How did it work out?

Thank you for the advice! I do feel really lucky that I have had two call backs so quickly. I don't know if I could accept a job and then leave. I would feel really horrible to tell you the truth. I may call the second job tomorrow and tell them that...

I am moving from South Carolina to Florida. Can someone give me some guidance on what I am supposed to do about my license? I went to the Florida website http://www.doh.state.fl.us/ and tried to figure out what I am supposed to be doing but am confu...

I looked at that website but am still unsure on what steps I need to do.

Can anyone give me some ideas or example of a Process Improvement or Change that they have PERSONALLY been involved with? Was it hard to bring about the change? How did you get the idea that something needed to be changed or improved on? Thanks!

Also interested in this information!

Can someone explain to me how my patient has diastolic heart failure with an EF of 55%? I understand that the left ventricle is not relaxing properly to allow correct blood flow but how can this occur and still produce a good EF? I have googled this ...

But how can there be a decrease in the amount of filling of the ventricles and still be a normal EF?

I have a question that I was wondering if someone who works in the United Kingdom could expose more light on this. I heard somewhere that in the UK doctors are the ones that make the decision when to stop treatment on a patient. Is this true? At my h...
