wow, that's a great list. Many thanks! Now if I could only fit it all on one card LOL!

I was wondering if anyone could help me out with commonly used drugs in the OB/GYN area. I am leaving my current job as an ER nurse and moving to an OB/GYN surgical unit soon and want to be as prepared as possible. I want to put together a little pocket reference card that I can easily refer to while I'm on orientation. Any other words of advice would also be greatly appreciated.

Was wondering if anyone ever experienced this and what it might mean for me. I just found out the hospital I work for (Catholic hospital) is being bought out. The sisters who run the hospital want to back out and sell the two hospitals they run, to another private organization. Everyone is getting freaked out. I keep thinking though, the only people who should really be freaking out is probably upper management. Should the staff nurses should be worried about this? I started working for this hospital about 5 months ago as a new grad in the ER. My only concern is that if they decide to do a clean sweep I would be higher risk at loosing my job because I am so new. Any thoughts?

We also use Neut in the ED I work in. It seems to do the trick.

Yep just found out I passed the NCLEX-RN yesterday...sheesh glad that's over with. I have been considering ICU..really enjoyed that rotation during school clinicals. I didn't think they would hire new grads in ICU though?

Well, my husband is active duty Coast Guard and we are getting transfered there for four years. It will be a nice change from Kodiak Island Alaska...what can I say, I like island hopping

How did the talks go?? I am interested because I am starting my nursing career in Hawaii in a couple of weeks.

Well, I took the test on the 24th. Not really sure how I am feeling I did on it. It seemed like I could always narrow it down to the best two but from there it seemed like it was a guessing game. It shut off at 75 so I either did really well or really bad! Anyway, I am moving to Hawaii soon, so I took here in Alaska but had the results sent the Hawaii board of nursing. They are one of the states that takes a long time to get the results....so for the past few days I have been driving myself crazy....pacing like a cat, lurking on here to see how others did, and checking the mail box 7 times a day :uhoh21: Hopefully it doesn't take too long to get the results! Good luck to all the others taking the NCLEX this summer :rotfl:
