  1. Calling in for no sleep

    roser13 replied to Nurse131382's topic in General Nursing

    Marcy, all of the responses that I've read from you on this forum remind me of reading a Fundamentals of Nursing textbook. They're usually more lecture than your actual opinion on the subject. You do...

  2. Look for a College for my Daughter

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

    CNA is not really a "first step" toward licensure. It is a nursing assistant, useful for experience but not required for nursing school (although some individual schools do require it). LPN or LVN is...

  3. Calling in for no sleep

    roser13 replied to Nurse131382's topic in General Nursing

    OP had ample time to sleep without interruption/regroup. This is not about a culture of fatigue. It is about failure to plan, on an individual level. Reference to my "Time Management 101" post...

  4. Can I only ever work with children?

    roser13 replied to mapajasa's topic in General Nursing

    I had a couple of observation

  5. 40 yr old with GED. Is a MSN even possible?

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

    Forget the associate degree in math/science. Waste of time & energy. No need to take fill-in credits for a worthless degree. Go straight for the ASN. Trust me, there will be pre-requisites. There...

  6. Calling in for no sleep

    roser13 replied to Nurse131382's topic in General Nursing

    This is not an "inculturation" issue. It's a believability issue. From Saturday AM to Monday AM, many opportunities for sleep present themselves. Why were they not used? Why expect co-workers to take...

  7. Calling in for no sleep

    roser13 replied to Nurse131382's topic in General Nursing

    I think the main issue/confusion stems from your claim that you only had 1 night to recoup sleep. When it seems that you really had an entire weekend. It doesn't seem to make

  8. New job, No orientation

    roser13 replied to yooniehime's topic in General Nursing

    Run like the wind. New license? No orientation? No deal. The comparison to registry nurses is laughable. Most registry nurses are very experienced. And even they get something by way of orientation....

  9. Can I only ever work with children?

    roser13 replied to mapajasa's topic in General Nursing

    In the US, the vast majority of your clinicals will be with adults. That is roughly two years' worth of working with

  10. Mr. Harry the Excessive Hair Patient

    roser13 replied to Barbie8808's topic in General Nursing

    Some folks have real trouble going with the flow on Internet forums and really shouldn't post without the appropriate

  11. Can I only ever work with children?

    roser13 replied to mapajasa's topic in General Nursing

    While it's great that you have a goal for your career, it is not realistic to expect that you will only ever work in pediatric oncology. Furthermore, you may get a taste of that specialty in your...

  12. Mr. Harry the Excessive Hair Patient

    roser13 replied to Barbie8808's topic in General Nursing

    I'm weary of being too

    Don't be weary. Be

  14. IIVD

    roser13 replied to Nurse131382's topic in General Nursing

    Never heard of that

  15. Fired from first job..."not eligible for re-hire"

    roser13 replied to run.for.the.roses's topic in General Nursing

    Yet most all of us manage to accomplish a blemish-free orientation. It's not just a facility or 2 that has this "short-sighted" approach - it is

  16. Need standard response response suggestions

    roser13 replied to lavenderskies's topic in General Nursing

    [/quote They don't understand that the $$ are SS. Exactly! I thought actual dollars were being

  17. "Cell phone" vibration in your thigh?

    roser13 replied to srercg's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    Really?? No one else needs to find evidence of anything that goes on in my body to justify my experience. Either I feel it or I don't. Either it happened or it didn't and if it didn't, then it was a...

  18. Joining the military and employment contracts

    roser13 replied to Laabsk's topic in General Nursing

    I think you need to consult an attorney. None of us are able to answer your question. And yes, technically, you ARE asking for legal advice. Just saying you're not doesn't make it

  19. Babies visiting in the hospital

    roser13 replied to JasBSN's topic in General Nursing

    Baby has no business in the hospital. Visits can be arranged for home. Furthermore, patient's wishes should be

  20. Patient Conscious During CPR

    roser13 replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I've always wanted to do that. However I learned (here, as a matter of fact) that it was not remotely considered to be binding. HOWEVER, I subsequently learned (again, on AN.com) that while it is not...

  21. "Cell phone" vibration in your thigh?

    roser13 replied to srercg's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    ExACTly! Your description is dead on. Mine usually happens while I'm

  22. First CNA job with home healthcare?

    roser13 replied to bh_dean's topic in General Nursing

    Perhaps ask your question on a CNA forum rather than a nursing

  23. Need standard response response suggestions

    roser13 replied to lavenderskies's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not saying anything about my experiences with providers. I'm saying that I cannot discern (from your post) what the actual issue is. Perhaps you're being too cute in your posts or assuming too...

  24. Weekend Nurse

    roser13 replied to Gabrielle1818's topic in General Nursing

    The "pathway" is: Go to nursing school. Graduate Pass Nclex Work as a nurse Be experienced enough to be competent at triage. There is no "pathway" to triage except experience. (don't really know what...

  25. no reply from nurse manager

    roser13 replied to tinybbynurse's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    "it's been my goal to work there or idk what I'll do" " this is the ONLY NICU (unit I want)"​ That all-or-nothing attitude rarely works. Keep applying as often as you want, but if you really...
