    I'm sorry you feel that way. I feel quite honored to have been chosen. This is not something that is done by my hospital, but a regional

    Title RN/LVN

    klone replied to JENURSE03_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    If the RN doesn't mind working for LPN wages. The reason why they say they're looking for an MA or LPN is simply because they don't want to pay for an RN, who is going to command a higher

    Why is EFM cert. a requirement for L an D

    klone replied to BSNbeauty's topic in General Nursing

    That sucks that they failed, but this is a critical exam for competency in labor management. I get that they're probably awesome labor nurses in supporting women in labor, but you also need, even more...

    Title RN/LVN

    klone replied to JENURSE03_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I would assume that's a form letter sent out to everyone who has an active LPN license, and they did not look into whether you had a higher license that was active. Have you tried calling your BON and...

    Why is EFM cert. a requirement for L an D

    klone replied to BSNbeauty's topic in General Nursing

    Why don't they just get the certification? I think of EFM as different from other certifications, like RNC-OB. IMO, being an expert on EFM interpretation is extremely important for an L&D nurse....

    Not having kids until 35

    klone replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    That's just an odds thing. The reason that is is because most women having children are under 35. Nothing "magic" happens at 35 - it's just that that is the arbitrary cutoff medicine has decided to...

    Not having kids until 35

    klone replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing
