  1. Fake Nurses

    godbless-yute replied to Girlygirl69's topic in General Nursing

    I think anybody posing as something they are not is BS!. It has nothing to do with thinking too much of what you do, or feeling that you're better than someone else, it's about principle. If you ever...

  5. 'cattle calls' in ER waiting room?

    godbless-yute replied to BaptistBites's topic in Emergency

    My ED calls names over the intercom in the wr, which the majority of the time could barely be heard when the wr is full. The "number" idea could get ugly since most patients don't understand the...

  7. Touching blood without gloves

    godbless-yute replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think there is ever a good reason to put your health at risk for a patient. Even if this lady was losing massive amts of blood, she could always get fluids and a transfusion if it were that...

    godbless-yute replied to luvpets's topic in General Nursing

    godbless-yute replied to TJobs's topic in Emergency

    My ER is a level 2 trauma center that sees around 300ish patients a day. - set 3wk pattern - no call requirement - if they are short staffed they start calling ppl to see if they want to pick up...

  15. Ballpark pay rates for experienced RNs

    godbless-yute posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hi All, I've noticed that it seems like no one likes to answer questions about pay rates, but I still have to ask. I now have a full yr of nursing experience (in the ER). A soon-to-be former...

  17. Philly, Allentown, and their burbs

    godbless-yute replied to godbless-yute's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I forgot to ask about patient ratios....specifically for the er.

  18. Ballpark pay rates for experienced RNs

    godbless-yute replied to godbless-yute's topic in Georgia Nursing

    $18/hr is insane.....but that's why I wanted inner city wages because rural hospitals aren't competitive with their pay. Good luck with ur NP

  19. What certifications do you have???

    godbless-yute posted a topic in Emergency

    Hi all, I've officially survived my first year in the ED with good reviews from my supervisor. I'm ready to take the next step in my career. I do ultimately plan to go back to school for NP (I have a...

  20. Triage at the bedside

    godbless-yute replied to MAISY, RN-ER's topic in Emergency

    At my hospital, we have "team triage". There are 3-4 RN's doing triage in little triage rooms. Based on acuity, and pt's appearance/behavior they are either sent back out to the waiting room (wr) or...

  21. (Just for grins) Pet Peeve of the Week: chart hoarding

    godbless-yute replied to ByTheLake's topic in Emergency

  22. Supervisors FB Friends with Staff?

    godbless-yute replied to MsBruiser's topic in General Nursing

    I personally don't think you should be friends with supervisors (even if they're not ur direct supervisor) unless you guys were already bff's prior to them being a supervisor. I have co-workers as...

  25. What certifications do you have???

    godbless-yute replied to godbless-yute's topic in Emergency

    Yes, I already have ACLS and TNCC. I'm guessing its a myth, but i was told that CCRN was more for ICU/PCU nurses and that CEN was our "version" of that. CPEN, I was sort of avoiding just because I...
