  2. Is it hard to transition from OR?

    roser13 replied to YouknowwhyImhere's topic in General Nursing

    Once you get into the OR, you will likely be required to stay for a while. The orientation to OR is lengthy and expensive. Most employers (in my experience) will require you to sign a contract for X...

    roser13 replied to roser13's topic in General Nursing

    And "how you say it" is not necessarily "how they read it." As evidenced by my previous example of vitriol shot my way because of a one-word, appropriate answer. Folks don't realize that they're...

  6. Discrimination in the workplace by your boss female, how do you handle it?

    roser13 replied to LifeisChange1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  11. Can a nurse advance to healthcare administration positions?

    roser13 replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

    It is commendable that you want to make a long-term plan for your life. However, part of your life-learning will be the knowledge that you cannot reliably predict in advance where your...

  12. Some days.......

    roser13 replied to roser13's topic in General Nursing

    1. I have not said anything whatsoever about "new nurses these days." And the only reference I've made to students is that they ask us questions. 2. If you can detect snark from "Algebra 101," when...

  13. Career Change-confused!!

    roser13 replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    I do not. I see honest, be-careful-what-you-wish-for, thoughtful responses. Some will likely see my post about OP understanding the CNA role, not necessarily the nursing role, as rude. I wrote that...

    roser13 replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

  17. Is there a specific forum for asking for advice other than "Ask Nurse Beth"?

    roser13 replied to cardenas_a's topic in General Nursing

    Not sure what you're asking for. If no one else can read it, then it's not a forum. What sorts of questions does "Nurse Beth"

  18. Career Change-confused!!

    roser13 replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    You have a very good understanding of what a CNA job entails. From the details that you have shared, you do not have much of an idea of what an actual nursing role consists of. Take the advice and...

  19. Taking pre reqs while in nursing school?

    roser13 replied to FutureRNjas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In most competitive nursing programs, completion of all prerequisites boosts your application status. Usually there are enough applicants who have already completed their prerequisites that very...

  20. I'm quitting today! Finally had enough!

    roser13 replied to SoontoBNP's topic in General Nursing

    All I know is that you should not for a minute consider any raise or promotion that may be offered to you at this point. You will end up paying for it dearly. If your boss/company truly valued you,...

  23. Can I be terminated for an injury?

    roser13 replied to tired_panda's topic in General Nursing

    OP is on orientation. FMLA won't remotely be applicable. STD may or may not, but it is doubtful. OP, be forthcoming with the orthopedic surgeon. If there is a choice between conservative...

  24. Accidentally told my coworker what I make, BIG ISSUES NOW

    roser13 replied to newrn93's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Should you "confront" her about "blabbing" to others? Considering that you were the first to "blab" however innocently, I think you have no business confronting anyone. Keep your head down &...
