I had an interview for a dialysis position today. I was told that I would be on my feet for the entire shift. However, coming from med/surg I can't understand why. What exactly does the RN do all day?

Thank you w&mRN for Mark 11:24 :heartbeat. I have been praying for a new job.....one that I will enjoy & look forward to doing. This scripture came right on time :). Just this morning, my husband lost his wallet. He was tearing up the house...

Skimom I KNOW what you are going through! I HATE IT ! On top of that we do team nursing (RN/LPN), so I also hv to put up with some of the worst attitudes ever :argue:. Life is too short. I'm leaving!!!!! I now understand why the turnover rate is so h...

Wow guys THANKS for the info!! I understand now. However it still seems better than running up & down a med/surg floor, which I'm trying to run away from. I didn't know that codes are ran....I'm assuming that we have standing orders for code med...

Hey Su!! No the only things I had to do for the health screening is what I wrote in my post to Bee. I did hv to fill out some papers that asked about my health history but that was for workmans comp. The background ck only asked for my employment h...

Thanks su!!! I got on at Ochsner. They just called me out of the clear blue :bdyhdclp:

@su.....well i took both hurst and kaplan & i must say that both of them were great but kaplan was a mirror image of nclex. hurst is good to take before u start nac II because it breaks down the info. but nclex is NOT like hurst or any test in s...
