I have an interview in 2 weeks, I have a few things they have asked me to prepare. Can any one share what they were asked or ask in community based interview/s? So far I have only worked on wards. thanks SG

Thank you, sorry I've had no internet connection thanks to my toddler! I ended up going for an informal vist and getting loads of advice and info. Still need to polish up though. Interview next tues eek!

Hi! any help would be great!! I don't know were to start, my husband and I are looking into moving to OZ on a 136visa. We *think* we want to go to Brisbane. We need to be near a childrens hospital for me and would like to be close to the sea. can ...

Thanks Gwenith, not Noosa Heads then. I've been looking at Google earth, its fab!! Im just trying to work out how far the beach is from kelvin grove, fortitude valley, wilston, red hill, paddington, newmarket area/s. Think I have decided on Brisbane ...

Hi again Susieok thanks for the info on areas. r.e beaches we are looking for clean beaches were we can swim etc. English beaches have a different beauty, IYSWIM. So its hard to be subjective on what we class as a 'good' beach and what others think.

Thanks guys, Beach wise we don't surf, but hubby dreams of it I am a paeds nurse so like I said I need to be near a childrens hospital. No adults for me its just so hard finding an area, with reguards to what the area is like, what are the scho...

Thanks for the info. Hubby wants 'perfect' beaches so I think we will have to choose another area. Its so hard though!

For me its lack of management!! I've been in my first post since Nov last year. Had a one part time manager since then. So the problem is bad practice bullying etc is allow to go on as there is no one to answer to!

Audreyfay was right you are only human I have these days (don't we all??) Now you laugh, because at least you recognised you were a wee bit mean! and he was a bit mean to you! Ruby

I would like to apply for a magic wand !! wouldnt life be good!

YES!!! My unit is seen as the 'easy' unit so we regularly get nurses who are having mental health troubles. We are joked at being the dumping ground. Please don't flame me for my comments/views.. please! We have one nurse who spends 6 out of every 12...

Nothing... (i mean it should be paid for!) I think bed baths are an important part of nursing care and shouldn't have a 'price' as many would choose not to have one or try to do it themselves when they are unable to. I enjoy the interaction between ...

i try my best not to get them, my hair is in a bun and sprayed with hair spray so, is rock hard! also use tee tree oil around my hair line. still doesnt always work!

me!! argggg its so gross. We have such problems with nits at work. The worst time was one my b/f was sat on the floor. He has gorgeous jet-black thick wavy hair. Then I saw them, I jumped up 'thought OMG' he must of got them off me, how else could h...

Does anybody else feel like nursing is an anti-social job? Or am I stating the obvious to you lot?? Since I left university and moved from my home village my social life has all most become non-existent. All my friends from secondary school/college ...

Hi Thanks everybody for the advice and info, I have found a group for 18-35's which meet weekly and arrange stuff or just to meet for a chat. So hopefully someone will get back to me :) Ruby :kiss

Thank you for your kind words I can't volunteer as every place I've approached want a 'set' day. I do baby-sit for various families with disabled children, so they can go out or just have a few free hours. I've joined a gym, started with a netball te...

hi 3rdShiftGuy i suppose being somewhere new doesnt help. i work 7x 7.30 to 9.30 shifts and 5x 9.30 pm to 8am. which leaves me with a lot of days off to do stuff. what makes it harder is my partner is Turkish, and so doest know many people either.

I was diagnosed with PA in 1996, after losing weight, having weird dizzy spells, falling over etc. also have thyroid problems and bowel problems (all 3 being autoimmune diseases) like Jennerizer it was being so,so tired all the time i could easily s...

Connie is that a cocker spaniel? looks cute is it your dog? he is a picture of one of my dogs, Benny

I don't have one, and wouldn't get one. Surgeons would never be expected to buy their equipment... There was a case a while ago here in the UK about a surgeon buying a tool this is rare I think? It is defiantly the hospitals place to provide equipme...

This sounds kinda like our CHI (Commission for Health Improvement) Report. there was a massive panic the board outside listing everybody's name, dr and bed number was removed. Boards above the bed stating name and dr was removed. Notes could be left ...

yep i meant the guide taped to the desk, not patient info what is hippa anyway (im a UK nurse) Ruby

Hi ya Sorry I can't help this is a board for British 'stuff' although anything can be posted her. i think you need to post on the general nursing discussion board as more able to help with USA stuff. Ruby
