    netglow replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    netglow replied to Smith5's topic in Men in Nursing

    First off welcome. Now you are very wise to be concerned - it is a horrible time for new nurses (since 2007 bad) and not too bad for a few years experienced nurses, but horrible for very very...

    Some very articulate responses to this article have been posted. The fact remains, we are essential, but the problem is that the people making all the money in the business of healthcare are in it...

    4 weeks notice?

    netglow replied to eileeny21's topic in General Nursing

    I have heard of this as being now the new norm. But hey, you don't want to work there. You have a new job that wants you to start. Start the new job. Anybody who thinks they can delay a new job for 4...

    Sallie Mae Private Loan Question ! :(

    netglow replied to Kelly185891's topic in General Nursing

    Reading this stuff scares me for people like you OP. You will most likely have a tough time finding employment as a nurse. Have you considered trying to find any kind of work with your previous degree...

    netglow replied to RNperdiem's topic in General Nursing

    netglow replied to umcRN's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    I've looked into both ends of that spectrum the donor side and the recipient side some time ago. I had even talked to some in the field at length. The advice I'd give is to really think hard on this....

    Ethical Question About Pacemaker

    netglow replied to Nursingbride12's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    No offense but it seems some need to look into what pacers/ICDs are for eg what they do. What EP is, etc. It's no biggy to turn off a pacer - it's done all the time. Hospice doesn't decide. You...
