    Changing Seniority rules to get a Day position

    JadedCPN replied to MvfRN's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    One of the hospitals I worked at used a weighted system that factored in both hospital seniority and unit seniority. I don’t remember the specifics but for instance you got like 3 “points” for...

    Vocera! Can you talk to...?

    JadedCPN replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    My last facility used Vocera which was my first experience with it and it was an adjustment and mildly annoying. Where I’m at now (and prior to the Vocera facility) we use Voalte phones. I do see...

    PACU recovering patients in the ICU?

    JadedCPN replied to QCG33k's topic in General Nursing

    It’s been years since I worked PICU, but the PACU RN would come with the patient to the ICU but then we would immediately take over care of the

    My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    JadedCPN replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    @Gillyboo very well said and explained, thank you! Edited to piggy back off of the last sentence “This is just who we are.” It’s not up to an individual to try to pick apart WHY...

    "Thank you for your service"

    JadedCPN replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    For me like a previous poster had somewhat mentioned the issue/cringe-factor isn't thanking me, but specifically thanking me for "my service." I get paid well to do what I do and I absolutely wouldn't...

    Is it wise to work from home?

    JadedCPN replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    No, this isn’t about what time it is that you’re accessing a chart. This is about WHY you’re accessing a chart, and one of the reasons you listed was “monitoring.” Your position does not...

    Is it wise to work from home?

    JadedCPN replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    You should never need to do any “monitoring” in your specific role when you aren’t at work, period. There is no gray area here.

    Is it wise to work from home?

    JadedCPN replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    It’s not about your hours/clocking in or not, like JBMmom said “Unless you are directly responsible for the care of a patient you should not be accessing their chart and information.”...

    How Has Your Nursing Career Affected Your Relationships Or Other Aspects of Your Life?

    JadedCPN replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    “They” likely haven’t done that. This poster is known for taking on these responsibilities themselves that are beyond what is required because she feels she’s the only one who can competently...

    Got Fired From My First Nursing Job

    JadedCPN replied to Lynker's topic in General Nursing

    Ahhh that definitely explains things better as well. Now I'm curious on specifics as to how the epi pen thing came up with the state representative? Like did she specifically ask you "did you get...

    JadedCPN replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in General Nursing

    I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here, or where the origin of your unnecessary snark is coming from. I was simply saying you’ve already asked this question and got some really good...

    You posted an almost identical thread in January and got some sound advice, I would recommend rereading through

    Is it wise to work from home?

    It doesn’t matter what we think because you seem to post for the attention and drama, not for actual sound advice, and will continue to do what your want and provide dramatic updates for us all....

    ICU time management

    JadedCPN replied to Used2byoung's topic in General Nursing

    I don’t think that would be helpful overall. But I do notice that managers who come into staffing more frequently, be that as needing to charge some days or resource some days, seem to “get it”...

    I keep making small mistakes. Feeling hopeless

    JadedCPN replied to Whitneyz's topic in General Nursing

    Yes to what everyone has said so far. You know from your med surg experience that you’ll probably never make the pit icon mistake again! No matter how much experience you had, any transition...

    ADN vs BSN salary

    JadedCPN replied to MRaza's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All four facilities I’ve worked at in my 15 years have NEVER paid more for having my BSN vs ADN. But I agree with other posters that BSN in general opens more opportunities for other positions and...

    My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    JadedCPN replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I for one didn’t respond to your previous inquiries because of repeated comments like this which show a lack of maturity to even have a discussion on this subject. That is not meant as a dig, but if...

    My Experience of Trans Ideology and Nursing

    JadedCPN replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    This can also be a toxic way of thinking and it always saddens me that it’s from within the LGBTQ community. I’m bisexual by the way, been that way since I was a kid and will always be that way...

    Medication Error in School

    JadedCPN replied to uofanurse's topic in School

    How do they have OP with the 5 rights? OP was under the impression that it was the right medication, and the bottle with a pharmacy label confirmed that. Otherwise we all would need to go the extra...

    Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    JadedCPN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    What?! That’s because of, well, science. Masks, social distancing, better hand hygiene, less contact = less flu cases. This isn’t some voodoo magic conspiracy theory, it’s literally the science...

    Day shift or night shift

    JadedCPN replied to Staceym30's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the other poster, these both sound like good residency programs which is a rarity it seems these days. If you truly don't have a preference for unit, then I would decide based on shift...

    Hospice Patient’s Family Refusing Hospice Cares
