    Where Do I Go from here?

    JKL33 replied to Sweetpea04's topic in General Nursing

    Oncology is an excellent place to learn so much nursing in my opinion. [Disclaimer for what I'm about to say: Yes, these elements can be found in other specialties.] Okay, with that said, oncology...

    I Don't Get the Anxiety Part of Nursing

    JKL33 replied to missmollie's topic in General Nursing

    I had an alert today that someone used the new "dislike" button to dislike something I wrote 3+ years ago. 😂 I confess I am somewhat curious about the reasons people interact with zombie...

    What made you quit?

    JKL33 replied to Been there,done that's topic in General Nursing

    Ended my hospital career on this note: It was early during Covid and I was working per diem. Due to emergency changes there were not as many hours available for per diems as usual and quite a few...

    Novel Idea for Administrators

    JKL33 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    Right. So just let the poster vent I worked ED for many years and heard innumerable times (and may have even said so myself 😶) that "at least you guys [M/S] can have all your beds full, we...

    Med Error

    JKL33 replied to HawtMessRN's topic in General Nursing

    It is going to be okay. It really is. If you are the conscientious person that it sounds like you are, most likely this will help you pause and refocus, which is exactly what should happen....

    Ethical Question

    JKL33 replied to JDJones89's topic in Advanced Practice

    OP hasn't been here since shortly after making the post over a year

    I am really thinking this is not the right job for me - Am I Crazy?

    JKL33 replied to Birdsofprey's topic in Emergency

    At once? That just sounds stupid. High volume is one thing; high volume without anywhere near enough manpower quickly becomes intolerable. I think not wanting to practice that way is perfectly...

    Does TJC report to the board?

    JKL33 replied to Nurselady85's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    HHS Office of Civil Rights is responsible for enforcing HIPAA. I have no idea what TJC would have to do with it. Your former employer sounds less than stellar. It's a good idea to review HIPAA...

    BD PYXIS ES

    JKL33 replied to Kimmie1298's topic in General Nursing

    Just guessing but it seems like the poster would be asking the question because they don't think they did what they are being accused of. Sure they know if another person was there with them;...

    Novel Idea for Administrators

    JKL33 replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    Hang in there, Tweety. So much could be said but....already has been. I say practice nursing in the way that lets you sleep well at night knowing you did the best you could do with the hand you...

    Will I ever get the hang of this?

    JKL33 replied to ML504's topic in General Nursing

    Well it's good that you've identified a need to improve in certain areas. I think now's the time to stop yourself every time you are about to run to a next task without charting what you just...

    Will I ever get the hang of this?

    JKL33 replied to ML504's topic in General Nursing

    In my opinion you are finally just past the point where many of the basics shouldn't be as overwhelming, such as doing an assessment and documenting it, or doing an admission or safely administering...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    JKL33 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Agree. In fact I developed a bit of OCD (don't mean to use that term lightly but I don't have a better way to explain it at the moment) over the same type of issues. For a long time I had been soooo...

    Imposter syndrome

    JKL33 replied to DoloresC14's topic in General Nursing

    If you are not being counseled by admin/preceptor about improvements that you need to make (in other words, if seem to be doing okay even though you may not feel like it) then carry on....

    What skills should I develop and hone in med/surg?

    JKL33 replied to Revolutionaryroad's topic in General Nursing

    Use frequently (almost continually) on daily basis and the faster you become good at them the easier your life will be: Patient assessment, prioritization, professionalism, communication....

    EMTALA

    JKL33 replied to canoehead's topic in Emergency

    It can, but many times does not. All depends on specifics of how they are categorized and how they

    JKL33 replied to canoehead's topic in Emergency

    Those entities are (likely) not subject to EMTALA. https://www.acep.org/life-as-a-physician/ethics--legal/emtala/emtala-fact-sheet/...

    Am I being strung along or misinterpeting potential employer?

    JKL33 replied to Marshall1's topic in General Nursing

    Good job maneuvering through this and good luck w/ the new

    Humiliated and scared

    JKL33 replied to Overthamoon's topic in General Nursing

    I know it sounds outlandish given the OP's reporting of events, but may be one of the more reasonable things that happened actually, assuming that it could have been done 2/2 concerns of the ED...

    Is looking at a patient's chart on your floor a HIPAA violation?

    JKL33 replied to PrettyPeachyRN's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    That is not correct. Much better way to think of it is whether or not you have a legitimate need to know. Obviously one will have a legitimate need to know if the patient is directly assigned to...

    Any Nurses That Didn't Get COVID Vacc/Booster for Complio?

    JKL33 replied to NoFly-4645's topic in General Students

    Agree with the poster above me. GBS has well-known association with viral illness. Your decision-making process is your own but the evidence-based position is that it is significantly associated with...
