Soo quick back story- I work 2 casual jobs one I love and a bedside one that pays for childcare, keeps my skills up, and gives me insite for my side gig nursing lobbying/activism ( Not joking, this is my true true passion!) I am an experienced cri...

Yes of course everyone deserves respect from the President of the hospital to the person who cleans the rooms. The difference is, to a peer you can say" take the tone out of your voice" and then they typically say "oh sorry, bad day" or they just go...

Thanks for all of the responses. I haven't heard anything from the hospital and my next shift isn't for another week. Now that I have had the time to think it over, here are some thoughts- 1) I wish I never apologized, but in the moment, I could see ...

I never thought I would be in such a sticky situation and posting about it but here goes- I am a critical care nurse with 5ish years experience. CCRN, involved in AACN, lots of committees, awards, and nice things on my resume. I'm pretty pass...

Thank you everyone. I have to admit it is going to be difficult to try and finish my last days. Before all of this drama I was pretty miserable at a baseline and thought I made a mistake by leaving my old job. I don't think I am going to be able to d...

think you will notice a similarity in all the posters that think 100+ thousand in debt is no biggie which when you look at that, there isn't nothing you can say or do to shine the light, it will be a live and learn thing and be glad it isn't your deb...

---I also wanted to throw in that if I went the "save money route" and got a ADN. I would not be at the hospital that I am at now ( which is highly reguarded in the country and I LOVE it!) The University Medical Center I work for does not interview A...

I have to say...Im kinda offended. I was not at anytime "reckless" Let me break it down for you people saying it's near impossible At first, I wanted to be an artist.... nursing wasnt even on the radar- soo... 1st- 25,000 Private theater conservator...

Honestly is anyone taking into consideration location in this discussion. Because even the state schools are not cheap in the state ( cheaper than private, yes,but not cheap enough to do a 5 year wait list) 100 grand doesn't seem like an amount I sh...

I have 130,000 in loans. I switched majors late in the game. I went to two 20,000 grand a year schools, and I was in school for 6.5 years. I'm middle class so I didn't get any financial aid. Trust me, no one sets out to aquire so much debt. I feel li...

Ok I need some advice here. I worked as a PCA and an ER tech while in Nursing School. At the beginning of my first semester of nursing school I signed a contract to the hospital saying that if they paid for some nursing school in turn I would work as...

However, did the contract say you HAD to be hired as an RN specifically or just employed with the facility? This is another reason why you need to see an attorney. Don't wait until you get the bill. Thanks everyone!!! So Friday I called HR to get my...

Thanks Everyone for the advice! To clarify more details for everyone..... I was not terminated..I had quit after I had gotten a new RN position at the other hospital. I also did try to chat up some managers and none of them were hiring. Some of t...

Con: Having to eat your lunch in 2 minutes while standing over a garbage can. Pro: I guess enjoying what you do! ( If you do in fact enjoy it) Grossing out friends and family with stories at dinner. I like making people feel bet...

I don't understand your hostility. I only brought up the fact that so many of the posts/nurses COMPLAIN about the work environment. It's coming from within... not from the public. I can answer your question: The posters hostility comes from your igno...

Ok so last week I passed NCLEX! YEAH! I called my new job (HR and my manager) to let them know that I passed. I scheduled my new hire health screen and HR told me to bring in proof that I passed. Im suppose to start orientation March 9th. ...

First of all, I'm sorry it took me so long to reply I was studying for boards( I passed!!!!) To answer your question- do NOT trust the school advisors....ask to talk to a nursing advisor FROM the school of nursing. 50 people from my class plus ...

I think I can answer this....my theory is ( and I am not an RN yet but I will hopefully be in 4 hours. ) Nursing is rough. Nursing School is rough. You work on your feet for 12 + hours a day, peoples lives are in your hands, people are sick so they...

YEAH!!!!! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I woke up thinking about you and some of the other people on allnurses. I get my results in 3 hours......it feels like forever!!!!! :redbeathe

I feel the same way as you and JeepDude. I took it yesterday and as time passes I am filled with dread. As I have been posting before ( trying to kill time I guess) It looks like all of our questions were onabout the same topics.............I wont ge...

Well I took mine earlier today and the more I think about it the more I think that I failed.........ughhhhhhh...I feel like I had some low level questions( I mean some of these questions were really easy) and I feel like I got nervous and blew it. I ...

I got the same thing!!! Tons of dietary! Good luck to you too!

Im in the exact same boat as you. It stopped at 75 questions....same kind of questions..... 1 SATA about 10-15 priority,0 math.... One what order do you do this procedure in ...and identical questions about the same topics....(2 topics I looked up a...
