Hello nurz2be, McDreamy is OK. But John Carter is still sexier to me. Hawkeye too. Who remembers the Chad Everett character with his tailored scrubs? I just wish Sam Elliott would have been a...
We all know MRSA has been around in our facilities forever. Does anyone here actually feel there has been an increase in MRSA, Staph A, or any other superbug ? How does your facility deal with docs...
Noryn, I heard Kings was hard to work at too. If they see you "not busy" then they find something for you to do. Now, I have no personal knowledge of this, but that seems silly to me. Sometimes you...
Hi Noryn, I hear so much crap from the nurses I know around here. Yes, unless a unit is your goal, then floor nursing is and has been the pits for a long time. Too much paperwork. Not enought time...

Stevie, I understood it was against policy even on TV, but the question is what would have to happen in your facility for opposite sexes to share a room? I was sort of hoping for some funny answers....

Shannon, ears ago I tried to get a license in Ky but the paperwork was so confusing I had to call the BON. I never did get a straight answer to most of my questions. It seemed to me some parts of the...

Hello Shannon, Well, SOMC was not too friendly when I called them. Maybe I picked a bad day. Holtzer is very cold too. Funny, my cousin works there and she says they are in need of help but are so...

I guess I have been a nurse for too long but..... I remember when every facility was clean, really clean. Today there are places in every facility that badly need a good cleaning. Even the area...
Hey ed, I drove 47 miles one way for years. I know about long distances. Funny how I could often make it to work but people close were not able to get there on paved streets and cops willing to pick...
I agree that the increase in the money for the license for this committee was and is a waste. I have enough CEU's for the state and will, of course get 30 more after Jan.08 just to keep myself above...

This is just an outside opinion, but there are enough nurses who sit on the fence at BARH concerning the union. They love it when the union goes to bat for them over certain issues, but otherwise...

From what I hear the strike is going to last a good while, the nurses are starting to feel some of the pinch, and the facility is holding tight to their one and only offer. Some of the girls are...
Hello CAMC has nurse extern jobs, so does Thomas to some extent, don't know about Teays. Let me warn you, these jobs are glorified CNA positions, sure they pay a few cents more, you do get into the...
I talked to a friend from Huntington this weekend, she is so tired of all of the crap with nursing she told me she can't hardly make herself go to work now. She work at Cabell, good pay and benefits...
Is everybody getting flu shots this year or not? What plans do u have for the holidays? Who will work? Who wants to work? Who does not? Does anybody feel like the new license system here stinks?...
Hey ed, I know what u mean about interacting with some of the patients on psych. But, just a random thought, if the people u work with r good, pay ok, and benefits too, just wait awhile before u jump...
