    front desk job at a medical office ?

    netglow replied to Infermero's topic in General Nursing

    Well as someone else just posted I also ran an office doing all things during nursing school: prelim triage and making/changing the doctors schedule, all treatment plans, all referrals, all clinical...

    The strangest thing you've ever seen on an x-ray?

    netglow replied to Spirit of Humor's topic in Nursing Humor

    Well, I know you all got those stories AEB another thread discussion on the general forum is just the tip of the iceberg! And it's better told here in this section where those with stronger...

    How far is too far?

    netglow replied to VanityRn's topic in General Nursing

    THIS! You know there was another thread that referred to this. I went to the link and ended up looking at another one. This Video Blog I ended up watching was interesting, I got hooked going through...

    Vodka tampons?!?

    netglow replied to Christy1019's topic in Emergency

    OK. We so need another thread in the Humor section of AN. I believe some of you that have been around a while could really start it off and running. Nursel56? How 'bout a starter? -or- Mrs. Harvick?...

    Orientation...blechhh

    netglow replied to beeble's topic in General Nursing

    The OP is an established professional. She is changing specialties, but can expect to learn on a more even playing field. Professionals who work together are expected to be collaborative in learning,...

    Would you have called?

    netglow replied to Art_Vandelay's topic in General Nursing

    That is ridiculous. It's obvious that the either/or orders were written due to the fact that someone had mentioned or already knows the patient might fail IV therapy. The MD was made aware and wrote...

    netglow replied to beeble's topic in General Nursing

    She could be from the U of K (University of Know it all) AEB the quizing. Quizing is kinda a waste of everybody's time and tolerance IMHO. Good you laid it out for her. I think you did exactly what...

    Vodka tampons?!?

    netglow replied to Christy1019's topic in Emergency

    No I am not in a "caring" field. That's for saps. No I actually didn't think to do things like this when I was young. Most teens don't venture into this sort of thing. Wisdom doesn't enter into it at...

    Should I give 2 weeks or finish schedule?

    netglow replied to ertrek84's topic in General Nursing

    Staffing is not your problem. IMHO, just don't quit right before your shift or leave midshift if you can help

    Vodka tampons?!?

    netglow replied to Christy1019's topic in Emergency

    Well now. See, it's plain simple. I have no sympathy for these people. I am sure that the female "types" who do this, also believe that somehow that alcohol will prevent infection, sexually...

    Those tests are a joke. IF you search AN you will find threads regarding

    Nursing/Nurses Credit Unions?

    netglow replied to XXWeaponX's topic in California Nursing

    No I haven't heard of any just for nurses. I am still a member of my CU from my first job, from my first go 'round with college/career at a big pharmaceutical

    I gave two weeks,,,but I dont want to finish

    netglow replied to KarriRN's topic in General Nursing

    OP, Now you got to follow up with a fake "nicey-nice" resignation letter, for the record. Then put this behind you, I know you felt such a lift with the deed done. Have a good Thanksgiving, and try...

    Do they not want the truth in exit interviews?

    netglow replied to Marshall1's topic in General Nursing

    No they really don't. They'll gladly hear any "dirt" and might investigate. But the purpose is to see what kind of threat you are as far as badmouthing the Co. I really think that HR also might lean...

    netglow replied to KarriRN's topic in General Nursing

    Well, as far as how they staff, that's their problem. As long as you give them some notice, they can pay agency and that will be that employer's punishment to have to pay even more for a nurse to...

    netglow replied to KarriRN's topic in General Nursing

    What Brandy says is true, really. Places like that and the one I worked for don't bother to return phone calls. They have such high turnaround and no real administration professionals. If a future...

    I gave two weeks,,,but I dont want to finish

    netglow replied to KarriRN's topic in General Nursing

    Now that you gave the two weeks, try and complete them. I think that since you've been there a while now, it's best. If you had been there for 2 weeks, I'd say you wouldn't need to as long as you...

    No one will hire a nurse with only a Associates???

    netglow replied to CNA1991's topic in General Nursing

    Well sure Princess, while the world is simple. You just began nursing school, and all you have behind you is high school. Spend some time taking all of this in and as you move along in school and life...

    netglow replied to CNA1991's topic in General Nursing

    What I find hilarious about this talk of pushing even higher education for RNs, is, the more you lay out for education in time and money (not talking about the facility laying this all out, but, THE...

    netglow replied to noyesno's topic in General Nursing

    When a lot of family descends, I'd introduce myself to them and also say something like, Oh, and if you find you are getting a little hungry/thirsty, don't forget to get something to eat for...
