Its mandatory..u dont have a choice......

At my job, they tested me for HIV, Hepatitis, urine toxicology and other things...so i dont think it is "Dont ask, don't tell" there.

PICU, NICU..Peds ER, Peds floor..............NEVER!!!!!!!!!...lollll

I would be devastated if that happened to me....Yup..they both violated HIPPA..those are grounds for termination..they had no right looking into your medical records at all.... I would take legal action and yes... involve the CEO of the hospital..

My heart goes out to you

Washington, DC

I say take the recruiting job..your health comes first!

The cardiologists I know are rude and have awful bedside manners.

No comment!

Id love to say a whole lot worse to some patients and some family members but the professional in me just shuts up and smiles...Gosh how i so wish!!!!!

I was a CNA for almost 4+ years while taking prerequisites for nursing school and while in nursing.. it taught me a lot, i got to work in the ltc and hospital setting and my schedule was very flexible..the pay was pretty good too...

Im very sure its not true . If not... this needs to be investigated.

Redcross and Community colleges offer CNA classes..U dont need college credits to get in. You can be whatever u want to be as long as u are determined to do it regardless of age ...........Best wishes!

U just push it in slowly... Some people dilute it with NS ..maybe about 2 ml and attach it to the secondary port ( piggyback) on the iv pump and set it infuse in 2-3 mins.. ... Providing there is a Primary port infusing with NS or something like that

Just call them up today and say u are resigning effectively NOW!!! Hey.. good thing is that it is an agency so as long as u are SURE you will not need them again...just quit now! Just make sure u dont use them as a reference. END OF STORY!

Its Q 4h rs x 3 and if it still trends up u continue to draw it till it trends down...it becomes q 8 hours..

I think it is unfair to generalize. Ive worked with some LPN's that are great and know a lot more than RN's. If that is what you can do right now, I say go for the LPN. When u do graduate..u are a nurse regardless of being an LPN or an RN. Good luck

My friend left a community hospital ICU for an IMC in a large teaching hospital .She loves it!

wow..thats scary

congratulations~!~~~

I regret that I still havent started my masters :grad:

I like my job..but if I could make money working from home...Id prefer to stay at home:yeah:

My heart goes out to you.!

You do have a valid point. I have a basic idea of what a resource Nurse does. They act as a resource to other nurses on the unit in their field of expertise ( they obviously have to have some experience in that area-telemetry, ICU, medical-surgical, OR). I guess I stated it in a rather awkward way. I wanted to know. Do they sometimes have to work on the floor? Is it a weekday-only job? Those kinds of questions from someone who is actually a resource nurse? And yeah, the recruiter would answer my questions, too ( She said I was qualified for the position), but why not ask my fellow nurses on allnurses.com? Thanks anyway for your help!

I am applying for a position as a Resource Nurse. I looked online for info on the duties of a Resource Nurse, but the information on the job description was too technical. Does anyone know exactly what they do, and can you explain it in layman's terms?
