  1. Unlicensed personnel performing RN functions

    this is crazy. But get ready for them to assign that role to you as opposed to hiring an additional nurse to offset this illegal mess they having going on.
  2. I don't believe California will ever become a right to work state because of how so many people tend to think out there. It's super overly dramatic democratic policies plague the state. The intent is to protect workers but I believe often times it...
  3. Why is pay so low?

  4. Humiliated and scared

  5. Humiliated and scared

    I'm sorry about your coworker. She had a "known" drinking problem It's up to the starter of this thread to determine how to proceed forward. I just simply gave my opinion. She didn't suffer any harm for her behavior but she suffered from humiliatio...
  6. Humiliated and scared

    How old are you? and how long have you been a part of the working world? and, if so, how long have you been in the healthcare field? Some of the most toxic and stressful areas to work are in healthcare. People can be very malicious. You would ...
  7. Humiliated and scared

    as soon as the test come back negative, (and u obtain proof via medical records) quit effective immediately or do a no call, no show and never show up again. Or keep calling in for every shift they have you scheduled until they fire you. (hopefully u...
  8. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    I'm sorry but this is horrible.
  9. Endorsement

    Texas has a statement on their Texas BON website that specifically speaks to the Florida nursing school scandal. So maybe they are vetting Florida more meticulously to make sure that the nurses are safe for the public.
  10. NP Salary/Pay Let's Be Transparent

    that's horrible unless the job is extremely easy and doesn't require multitasking/critical thinking.
  11. DUI

    what happens possibly for first dui?
  12. Resident Thinks I’m A Fake Nurse

    Tough skin should develop and get thicker as the years go by. Own and embrace your disability wholeheartedly. You must learn to assess and work thru any possible insecurity you may have because people can be ignorant and mean in nature. I su...
  13. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

    If you let it, Nursing can take all of your joy away and crush your spirit. You have to have faith. Get some champagne or your favorite piece of cake and celebrate your new job. Take it one day at a time.
  14. Reported to the BON for cellphone usage?

    girl, forget them people. Start applying for another job.
  15. Those organizations are lying in bed with one another. It's a waste of money.
  16. When Will the Nursing Shortage Be Over?

    go on a short strike during this pandemic delta stuff and let's see what happens... The hospital areas that have horrible staffing before the delta variant even arrives are going to be in an even bigger problem problem months from now.
  17. RN patient ratio in dialysis

    Why is every specialty in nursing difficult?? Shouldn't there be at least a few specialties in which u r treated with respect and not treated like a slave?? I'm one of the nurses in acute care that need a break. (especially after this covid mes...
  18. Getting off the "do not hire" list?

    the good old dnr list. It's a tactic done to bully nurses. 90% of the time, the abusive system holds no merit. It's what bitter miserable people do when they hold little significance in life in order to make themselves feel temporarily less insecure...
  19. New Nurse - Unsafe Hospital

    the going over ratio is bs too. If you show the money, the nurses will be there. Unfortunately, many of the hospitals are deciding to not share resources with frontline workers.
  20. RN pay in the Bay Area, CA?

    even with the cost of living adjustment, florida is still screwing nurses out of money.
  21. New Nurse - Unsafe Hospital

    if this were a male dominated profession, this foolishness would not exist. Just start refusing patients after 5. They can't fire every nurse.
  22. RN pay in the Bay Area, CA?

    that's what some of them do. The Bay area, San diego, & LA have very high rents but the bay is the worst. No one desires to really fix the problem.
  23. Covid ADN vs BSN

    Are the hospitals still looking at ADN vs BSN in regards to hiring practices? Based off of arguments in the past supposedly backed by research, facilities alluded to higher education being paramount to uphold safety standards despite everyone passing...
  24. Why hasn’t pay increased? Hazard pay, etc.? Especially considering that multiple hospitals lack supplies for PPE and we are frontline workers.
