  1. Quitting Nursing permanently

    Guest343211 replied to BurntRN1's topic in General Nursing

    Don't even put it on "inactive" status;" b/c you may want to use it in the future--and you can if your reactivate; but there is a record that you had it on inactive. That alone doesn't mean something...

    Guest343211 replied to clh8987's topic in General Nursing

  9. could get fired!

    Guest343211 replied to RNmoms's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  10. could get fired!

    Guest343211 replied to RNmoms's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  12. Compact State

    Guest343211 replied to Special_KB's topic in General Students

    People in general chew on others too much. It is nothing short of tragic that healthcare is like this. I have taught too, and the scathing or harsh approach is generally nonproductive. I submit...

  16. Adult ICU nurse transitioning to PICU

    Guest343211 replied to sugarmagnolia3's topic in PICU, Pediatric

    Well, in my experiences, which are not few, I have found, in general, PICUs and SOME NICUs can be less toxic than say pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Units. See my other post to the nurse that just...

  17. Cardiac ICU

    Guest343211 replied to AHeart4Kids's topic in PICU, Pediatric

    Guest343211 replied to thenursemandy's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Guest343211 replied to platon20's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees
