    Healthcare for undocumented immigrants

    That totally depends on the clinic. If the Planned Parenthood is a recipient of Title X, then they are not allowed, per Title X guidelines, to require ID. Whether a PP is under Title X is dependent...

    Healthcare for undocumented immigrants

    We have a lot of undocumented immigrants in our city. The facility where I work is the largest safety net facility in Colorado, and the vast majority of our patients are Medicaid/Medicare and...

    Where will I have the least amount of contact with men?

    Do you mean men in general, or male patients? Certainly anything women's health/OB will preclude taking care of adult males. There will always be men, though - physicians, lab techs, husbands/partners...

    Weed and work.

    No need. You were spot on with that

    Weed and work.

    This post makes no sense. And is illogical, to boot. Are you really comparing the illegality of marijuana to Sharia

    Frontier NPs not well trained?

    My only experience with their program is with CNMs. One way that Frontier is different from other programs is that they do their clinical rotation at the very end of the program, and it typically...
  7. I'm not on Facebook. That's probably why I've only seen it here. I think I figured out why it's "trending" now in the general population - "Straight Outta Compton
  8. So why is it now suddenly being used all the time? I had never heard it before about a month ago, and in the past month I've heard it about half a dozen times. All at this

    So fed up with my coworker

    I totally agree. And if we are to believe her last post, she understands now how misguided her actions and opinions were. Maybe she can help be a change agent to make her unit be a little more...

    Winnie Palmer

    It's a large women/children's hospital in Florida. A subsidiary of Arnold Palmer hospital. I'm assuming Winnie is Arnold's wife. And I know this, as someone who has never set foot in Florida. Sort of...

    Acute care vs. office nursing, which do you prefer?

    I've worked clinic for the past 2+ years. I enjoy it, but do sometimes miss the faster pace of the hospital, plus it's sometimes hard to work 5 days and have to take time off for things like dentist...

    So fed up with my coworker

    Except that she has only been there a short time, and the other nurses have likely been there much longer. I can almost guarantee that the gossipy atmosphere was there before the OP got there, and...

    Weed and work.

    Doesn't matter if it's legal. It's still against all hospitals' policies to use marijuana, and the person can be fired if they test

    So fed up with my coworker

    I do think this is genuine. Thank you for being willing to hear some unpleasantness. I truly think that as a new grad/new employee/young nurse, you're falling victim to a toxic environment of grumpy...
  16. Who the hell is Felicia?? I keep seeing this, particularly when someone is being flouncy. What does that

    I'm excited right now

    Congratulations, Commuter! I'm so happy for you! I am hoping that within the next month, I will have some good news about doors being opened by my WGU degree, as well.
  19. Asinine, not assinine. You're
  20. I've worked for a few hospitals that do references that way. You provide their email address, and the reference is emailed to the person, along with a letter that you authorize that states nobody will...

    Denver Nurses, Advice about DSN?

    I know the program is hella expensive, and if you look at DORA's website, their NCLEX pass rate is not very good. Your better bet is UC Denver. Their pass rate is consistently in the mid-90s, tuition...

    So fed up with my coworker

    Nope, you just gossip and complain about her behind her

    Are you for real? Seriously? This is one of the most ridiculous posts I have read here in a long

    So fed up with my coworker

    Why on earth is that rude? I'm sure I'm just repeating what others have already said, but you're WAAAY off base in your annoyance. She has done NOTHING for you to be annoyed
