As a nurse who works for an employer walks through those doors into the building you are required to do what ever is asked of you or quit and go elsewhere. If you believe the request will hurt the patient then refuse to do it. They could still fire y...

A great leader ALWAYS self reflects first when a situation seems wrong, negative or turns that way. To automatically take a direction to change others is to be nothing but arrogant and the so called leader will never win over the cooperation all memb...

The specifics of this event originated within the school itself and reflect on both the school and those involved so I beleive their actions were correct. On the other hand the corporate mantailty that it is also lawful to control an employee's perso...

Any business can set higher entry level standards for a postion. Depending on your state they would just fire a person who does not fullfill the new requirements. Having said this I know an ASN nurse who is recruited hard for Charge Nursing Positions...

If is called due diligence. You evidently did not do any research on the career before jumping in. Over worked and/or very long hours is the number one response.

I am worried about you being a nurse. You should have thought about how you were going to pay them off before you spent the money. Now that you have spent it then do what ever it takes to pay them off. If you must miss a few meals and live in a small...

In my opinion, anyone who helps a patient is a nurse. The basic label "nurse" has not become some new fancy elevated position brought on by colleges and technical schools handing out degrees or cerificates. No, to be a nurse all you have to do is per...

Here is a new one. As far as we know this one had never been used at our facility before. The front page in our local newspaper had a story about a man's truck that had been stollen. The thiefs were caught when they put diesel in the tank. The truck ...

I ignore them and just do my job.

I understand that everyone that went to school and did the hard work required to lawfully gain the right to display the letters "RN" beside their names would like to be called an "RN",,, however, in the real world, where the rubber hits the road, tho...

In my 37 years as a nurse I have found that the school or pragram you attended has very little to do with how good you are as a nurse a few years down the road. Any program that is well founded is enough. Great RN's continue to learn for their entire...

You read more into my responce than it said. What I stated has been and continues to be the entire truth about nursing graduates. I graduated with 16 and I am the only one still in nursing. I did not say you would or would not quit however the histor...

I have always believed that compensation should be based on the value of the employees contribution. I was convince of this in the early 1990's as I found that I made a lot more money than the manager that I worked for who sat on her butt in an offic...

First off, we need to understand all the laidoff workers are going to school on the taxpayer ticket. Of course they were tax payers once also and have earned this. On the other hand we must also understand that the historical data indicates that mos...

To live in a country that requires free citizens to inject substances into their bodies is the next step towards imperialism. No, I will not recieve the shot and I WILL quit my job and move if the law comes to my door. Your body is your temple and ON...

Ah, another nurse discovers that America means Capitist Profit Generating Healthcare System. It will be difficult to find a reasonable nursing job. And remember this. Americans are the most over worked and efficient workers in the world. This is a pr...

Keep searching. Because RN's are so expensive many companies use 6 or 10 to 1. 6xLPN to 1xRN.

See,,, Just as I said,,, It is a personal choice.

This is a common in every occupation! Just keep looking.

This is nothing more or less than a personal choice and should remain so.

I is also a real issue with the elderly.

Not sure what religon if any but some religons shun rewards and/or all pridfull events. An LDS friend of mine makes hugh donations to charities with no name attached. I mean thousands. He also has never attended any graduation event and he has a PHD....

Taking on what I would call, a massive credit burden, is a personal choice but personally I believe "all" credit is bad under any condition. The very reason our economy is in such bad conditon is because so many people have already barrowed and SPENT...

Personally I would have written up this CNA threes times. First, The CNA did not follow her instructions. Second, She refused actually refused to follow instructions. Third, Later in the day she was underminding your authority within the department. ...
