    Where are the new grads in ICU?

    xoemmylouox replied to kika72's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I have heard from several new grads that they landed jobs in ICU/PICU/CCU right out of school. Some places like to train you "their way" and don't want to deal with any "bad habits" someone has from...

    Are Managers against nurses?

    xoemmylouox replied to tiacali's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It may seem unfair, but covering one shift just to leave another one empty doesn't work. Next time when you offer to come in keep in mind that you have to work

    Pros and Cons of your job?

    xoemmylouox replied to Underoo's topic in General Nursing

    I think having some experience should help you land a job in another specialty. If you float you would see how many different departments work. Also try to read through the posts in the specialties...

    Triage complaints- the good, the bad, and the shocking.

    xoemmylouox replied to canoehead's topic in Emergency

    "My 3 year old pooped 3x lastnight. Today nothing". (Did you call your child's PCP?) "No we came here instead" The child was up running around. No pain, no change in appetite. Of course at that time...

    xoemmylouox replied to OnlybyHisgraceRN's topic in General Nursing

    You definitely have jumped around, but so far it doesn't seem like it has hurt you much. I would slow things down though. Eventually this will catch up with you. Hopefully you'll enjoy this current...

    Hospital paying for schooling?

    xoemmylouox replied to Yuvonne's topic in General Students

    My employer offers $1,000 a year max. They will only cover 50% of the cost of a class and only if that class improves you as an employee. So not all healthcare classes are

    Charting/Documentation

    xoemmylouox replied to mama2's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    It may be that she doesn't understand how important it is to document. You can always try to sit down with her and explain why it is important to document. It may not change her opinion, but at least...

    xoemmylouox replied to liveyourlife747's topic in General Nursing

    Emetophobia

    xoemmylouox replied to giarose2007's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not afraid of vomit, but if a patient vomits food up I'll gag and sometimes vomit myself. I either trade patients or suck it up and make the best of it. You will encounter vomit in nearly ever...

    xoemmylouox replied to Backblast's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I can't tell if I am just bored or burnt out, but YES I am needing a change. I dread going back to work on my days off so I don't get to enjoy those. We are short staffed so no one can get any needed...
