    Sorry Nurse Recruiters/Nurse Managers!

    netglow replied to Isitpossible's topic in Nurse Management

    Horseshoe, You are not a newer nurse are you? The OP is a new nurse. These problems are really applicable for late 2007 grads to current

    Sorry Nurse Recruiters/Nurse Managers!

    netglow replied to Isitpossible's topic in Nurse Management

    I get where you are coming form Altra, but nursing is something that REQUIRES immediate work - eg residency. If you don't get that you've just gambled away a ton of money if you fell for getting a...

    Sorry Nurse Recruiters/Nurse Managers!

    netglow replied to Isitpossible's topic in Nurse Management

    In my area, hospitals can be notorious for leading nursing students on with the 'bust your butt and you will at least get an interview when you are licensed' trick. Actually some of these hospitals...

    Nursing faculty who continue to work in the clinical setting

    netglow replied to AlonnaA's topic in General Nursing

    That instructor had better be at least active Prn if teaching. One of mine was not - she was scared ****-less on the floor during clinical, and hid as much as possible. This burned the floor nurses to...

    Sorry Nurse Recruiters/Nurse Managers!

    netglow replied to Isitpossible's topic in Nurse Management

    I think MOST of us understand that the OP does not feel entitled. SOMETIMES it's the "only" degree nurses that feel entitled, IMHO when I read through some of these posts. And really, these days? If...

    netglow replied to ertlbsn's topic in General Nursing

    Not gonna toss rainbows and skittles up your butt, OP. Here is what you do. Go ahead with your studies. BUT, keep and eye on the market for nurses. If it is the same after your first two years or so,...

    Sorry Nurse Recruiters/Nurse Managers!

    netglow replied to Isitpossible's topic in Nurse Management

    I think I hear that buzzing of flies you hear around those who seem to to have given up and wear their abusive work past on their chest like a badge of honor. You should be ashamed of taking crap for...

    netglow replied to L3Janit0r37's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    when did you have your OR clinicals?

    netglow replied to jusstme's topic in General Students

    If you want to do stuff, you need to prove yourselves worthy when in clinical. I got to see several different surgeries, 2 of which being hearts. I impressed the OR coordinator by correctly answering...

    "Sir or Ma'am" when addressing physicians?

    netglow replied to nurs4kids's topic in General Nursing

    Yikes. Never even as a child used the word "Sir". Mr. Mrs. Ms. was formal enough for me. I say, Dr. _______. If meeting an MD and that person corrects me and offers a first name, I will use that...

    Bogus degree?

    Well, I'd say that there is nothing that your conversation with her would benefit. Do you think this person would just stop working or attempting to find work after your conversation? Could you report...

    netglow replied to Despareux's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I think the OP said she applied for the job (which anyone can do). I'd be surprised if the OP got an interview. But, having said that if a private owner without any medical background, and a new...

    netglow replied to Double-Helix's topic in General Nursing

    When Do I Tell My Boss . . . . ?

    netglow replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    Ruby, Don't tell your boss anything unless you will be needing to not be at work - wait till you know for sure. No need to bring in the vultures with all their questions and doubt. Times like these...

    As a new grad, should I take this job? Not much time!

    netglow replied to StudentNurzNK's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    ooooooooh, be careful. Look that company up and see what you find. Many home health and hospice are scams, literally almost outpacing the legitimate ones! Pin that woman down about what exactly your...
