    Nurses, it's time to harden up

    I like the video because it's funny. I wonder how old the OP is. I am more of a realist. I prefer to see things how they

  11. I don't get the impression that the OP is feeling ashamed, I don't know where anybody got that idea. She is just realizing the situation she may or may not be in and feeling she might need to make...

    PICU or Ortho to start?

    Well, looks like she thinks you would make a good employee. Thing is maybe she knows who she wants for the PICU already. She might have wanted to offer you a job though, and went out of her way to...
  15. Already been up and running for a few years in my area with EPIC-based hosptital systems. I don't think there is much of a problem as a patient you can always request lab results. If you tend to be...

    How do I tell staff members apart?

    OP, see if you can get a patient assignment sheet from the floor secretary or charge nurse. Usually it's on paper and will give you patient name and room number with RN and aid assigned. Then at least...
  23. Always consider the pathophysiology of the problem at hand, lots of causes of anemia. What's hers? Take it as a chance to figure it all out. What was/is she doing recently/currently? Chemo/rad?...
  24. Getting into extra debt for a career in nursing is not wise. You probably will not earn enough to ever really experience actual financial gain for all the suffering without you will do, if you are...
