    Decreased Cardiac Output dx, will you help?

    think more like this: Decreased cardiac output r/t __________ AEB ________,__________,___________. or Ineffective tissue perfusion r/t __________ AEB ________,__________,___________. Activity...
  3. I don't see a thing wrong with this thread - not to say something might reveal in it's future, just that I think, I want to have access to it ALL. I decide what I want to continue reading, or not. Big...
  4. OP, glad you were able to get clarification. It makes sense really, to be in nursing attire. Of course!!! Think of the patients. You will be entering patient rooms, etc. If I were a patient, I would...

    Old school nursing practices....

    Try to get out of there. 1. snowing 2. abuse/intentional injury to
  6. No. Actually, I would feel horrible if I did. Nursing as a profession really is in a sucky place right now. What about 4-6 years from now? Nope. In ten years? who knows, maybe that's enough time for...
  7. Clearly someone in your admin. has made a decision to take the low road and fall in line with a lot of other facilities. Ride rough and just see how much more cash can be made, really live on the edge...

    *UNEMPLOYED NURSES*

    Not a thing is wrong with you. Easily 1000s of newly graduated nurses that have been educated right here in the United States are unable to find work as RNs. Simply said, there will never be enough...

    just want to ask..

    Used to be worthwhile. Years ago, if you worked as a CNA on the floor, and they all knew you were going to nursing school, you would be able to do more nursing duties alongside a nurse, and if you...
  10. yeah that again DNS on the go. I have seen NM consolidation as well in the large hospitals and the small ones too eg medsurge/tele is common, or
  11. Several years ago when I was taking my prereqs I met a few of those, they could not find jobs. Like nursing, it doesn't really matter what kind of other experience you have. Getting a job does not...
  12. Depends on your state and the hospitals in your area. My state now does not allow you to work as an RN as a new grad pending licensure. So, it is futile to submit RN job apps if you do not have a...
  13. Remember many of these jobs are often given to people with many years experience. If someone with say 5 yrs plus wants that job on that unit, they will get it. LOTs of experienced nurses are out of...

    Families and Healthcare: What Do You Think?

    I think she was telling you that once you start explaining the detail of monitors and ranges, the family might just start to call and question you every time there is a change. This, if it gets out of...

    Letter of interest

    I think you are being too timid. Go online and call, call, call to find out if they are even doing a new grad program at all. If they are doing a program it's going to take all you've got to even be...

  18. So easy, so easy, for all you docs lurking. Wouldn't you all want to be the object of affection of so many? It's up to you docs: constipated headcase - or - god/ess of LOVE :redbeathe AND YOU ALL...
  19. I'm not from bama, but, there is absolutely no demand for new nurses, so, I would be in shock if somebody was wanting to pay you to go to nursing school. You should look into postponing your edu, and...
  20. It's really possible that she has absolutely no idea what the job really entails. She is probably very upset and unhappy and scared to death, or will be soon - she probably had no other interviews. If...
  21. Hmmmm, I had a thought, I wonder if we might hear more of this kind of thing. Could it be the culling of the herd due to the overpopulation of nurses? No need right now to graduate really any new...

  23. OP, it just depends on the area. If you really want to know, you need to talk to some nurses, and students currently in hospital rotations where you are. During my clinical time, there was one...

    Terrible first clinical experience (CNA)

    You are tracking right OP, but, if you read, read, read posts here on allnurses, you will find that going to management often is like going nowhere. Going to the media, sure, reporting to the state is...

    Associate in Science....now what????

    You can check with the IL BON website links for a listing of colleges and their graduation rates as well as board pass rates. About CC or BSN, it's up to you on how much money you want to spend/or...
