    CPR LAWS

    klone replied to shargrove1201's topic in General Nursing

    Work place friendships, OR avoid like the plague?

    klone replied to Alexx_xox's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Ours is an incredibly close-knit unit, many of the nurses have worked together for decades. Friendships are very close, both in and outside of work. As the manager, I try to keep somewhat of a...

    Charge nurse calls doc at night

    klone replied to Nurse-please's topic in General Nursing

    But, the logical solution to that (which is what we've done at every place I've practiced) is to check with all the nurses, and let them know they will be calling the provider, and then all of the...

    klone replied to sugarmagnolia3's topic in General Nursing

    Negotiating Pay?

    klone replied to TheNurseocrat's topic in Nurse Management

    That's an odd reaction. Why would you be insulted by someone placing value on their skill level and trying to negotiate based on that? I have a high level of respect for any nurse who tries to...

    Can I do my nursing preceptor in any state?

    klone replied to hollycamillex3's topic in General Nursing

    Accepting verbal orders from another nurse?

    klone replied to amberrenae, RN's topic in General Nursing

    In fact, OP, the more I think of it, the more this smacks of diversion. And now YOU are involved, because they will see that you pulled morphine out of the Pyxis, on override, without an order, on a...

    soarian vs cerner?

    klone replied to Samantha315's topic in General Nursing

    Soarian sucks. Cerner will be better. It's normal to feel overwhelmed. That will probably not go away until you have been live for several weeks. Millions of healthcare workers have gone through it,...

    where do I find Federal laws about service animals?

    klone replied to mmc51264's topic in General Nursing

    What you're allowed to ask: Is this dog a service animal required because of a disability (note "dog" because only dogs are recognized as the ADA as a service animal) What task has the dog been...

    How serious is a verbal warning really?

    klone replied to ZSimzNeuroNurse's topic in General Nursing

    Again, if you have ongoing health issues, you should set up intermittent FMLA so that your absences related to your health issue won't be counted against you in their absence

    How serious is a verbal warning really?

    klone replied to ZSimzNeuroNurse's topic in General Nursing
