I was thinking more of the line like working

Good morning i am thinking about getting into travel nursing i was wondering what are some good agencies to go through i am oncology specialty but willing to work almost anything chemo certified. 29yo male no family that would come with me minimal he...

Thanks you New and Apple, I think I might of found one, anyone know much about Voyage, on HH good ratings recruiter very nice and informative, I think I might go with them, so nervous big life change for me.

Thank you for clarification of my post you are right about what I was trying to say, I was at work when I said it so I was typing fast trying to get back to patient care, also I have dyslexia so every so often my writing comes out pretty garbled. But...

Could of not said it better myself my cna is my life line

Oh defiantly not, my cna has the best knowledge of the floor, on how the patients are doing, that being said she has been a cna for 18 years so she K ow what is going on, I wish at time I could be out of staffing, got that the other night but was so ...

I work night shift, I am not lazy I have lots to do cancer patients don't seem to sleep chemotherapy prep work, and if I do have some down time I am in charge so I have to do that.

On my floor the charge nurse does, I think that is how it should be as a charge nurse my self I always get the input from the other nurses due to working night shift I have my own team so I don't always know what is going on with the other patients

Ok this might of been covered and i have been lookign on the internet but cannot find it, i currently work in a hospital in Iowa boarders Illinois(not a compact state) i was told that in the near future scence we own hospitals in both states they are...

So recently the hospital I work at decided to go to 3 colors only for nurses to wear male and female alike to help patients and family identify nurses easier, by the way they still think I am a doctor most of the time. So here are the colors white...

Yea they refuse to change it saying I can wear black or white they don't care

I would like to add something that Devon said, I started as a CNA to get an idea what nurses do and comfortable with patient care, you can learn alot as a CNA but man when I became a nurse still was a shock

I admit the tunic does look better then a standard v neck top but I don't think you could rock the bow tie with it, maybe around Halloween or doctor who events other then that naw man, I am with you been wearing scrubs for a long time the only time I...

This is the coolest thing I have read in I dunno how long thanks for sharing

Careful with the recording I know my instructors would not let us unless we had a reason because of hippa, but good advice do not ask what and answer is ask where you can find it then a lot of times that is where the instructor is testing you from an...

I have run across this before on my unit oncology, I refused to give the meds the patient would fall asleep every time I left the room, now if she was awake and didn't show signs of hypotension no problem I would give it, but if something happened an...

All this time I was mis informed lol, well thanks something new every day learned

Not sure about this could be legal issues I see in this

No been out of school 3 years now but from my understanding the nclex has not changed much the practice/study guides for it are harder then the test, you seem to be doing every thing right, but do your self a favor and this will be hard the day befor...
