  5. How do you get a job before graduation/nclex????

    AllSmiles225 replied to DGood's topic in First Year After Licensure

    This sounds so naive but I never realized that you could do that. They hire you in January to start after you graduate in May? How did those who did this land those types of positions. I'm very...

    AllSmiles225 replied to NewTexasRN's topic in General Nursing

    I know this isn't true of all places, but if you haven't taken your boards yet that may be a reason that you are not finding a job. Obviously I am aware that you can work as a Graduate Nurse but I...

  7. STOP - Don't buy your textbooks from the school bookstore

    AllSmiles225 replied to DolceVita's topic in General Students

    I bought my books from Amazon. When I added them all to the shopping cart at the school bookstore the total was 830 and change..amazon.com was 508 dollars. I shutter to think if I had bought them and...

  9. Another nurse got fired because of me.

    AllSmiles225 replied to arelle68's topic in General Nursing

    Plain and simple we all know that medication errors must be reported. I personally will try to confront the nurse if it was a matter of signing something or not before I start filling out any incident...

    AllSmiles225 replied to pink_scrubs2011's topic in General Students

  12. Looking down upon LTC nurses?

    AllSmiles225 replied to vicki429's topic in General Nursing

    Well lets see..more often than not I am introduced as the "medication nurse." Which I am sorry if anybody uses this phrase--it offends me. I do not just pass pills. I do treatments, change catheters,...

    AllSmiles225 replied to hollyberry678's topic in General Nursing

    The last year of my four year program has a 3 credit nursing class on Leadership/Management in Nursing. It focuses on the transition from a student to a professional. It educates the new nurses on...

  15. LPNs working unsupervised in nursing homes

    AllSmiles225 replied to mdfrey2010's topic in General Nursing

    My building is staffed primarily by LPNs on the night shift. I think that LPNs are just as capable of "assessing" a patients need for a visit to the ER and if the situation is not that serious..I also...

  17. Casual/per diem nurses and the phone. Do you feel harrassed?

    AllSmiles225 replied to wonderbee's topic in General Nursing

    I am working "per diem", but am being scheduled between 40 & 48 hours a week until I go back to school and they still call--and whats even worse..when I'm there they ask me to work a double. I...

  18. Routine Tylenol #3 and PRN administration

    AllSmiles225 replied to nurse_clown's topic in General Nursing

    IF the order read the way that you described I do think that it would be an extremely MINOR med error. The order says q4-6h PRN so to me that would mean that one dose would have to pass for four hours...

    AllSmiles225 replied to confusedstudentnurse's topic in General Students

    AllSmiles225 replied to O2BNRN's topic in General Students

    AllSmiles225 replied to O2BNRN's topic in General Students

  25. should a person work if they don't have to while in school?

    AllSmiles225 replied to scrublifenurse10's topic in General Students

    I would also suggest working even if its only 1 shift per week just to keep that experience. It looks so good on a resume when you show no gap in employment even if it was for school. If you can work...
