2. New Grad - Offering to Work for Minimum Wage?

   JomoNurse replied to Music in My Heart's topic in General Nursing

   Is this post for real? Go work at Walmart if you're willing to work for minimum wage. Hardly any stress. I don't think you are sane if this post is for real (I am not joking). I don't quite get why a...

3. How to pay for Nursing school: Student Nursing Scholarship + Financial Aid Links

   JomoNurse replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in General Students

   I REALLY recommend to everyone that wants to be an RN to take the JC route. It's insanely cheap. Universities are a waste of money if all you want to do is be an

4. OMG The Doctors at my facility are out of control.

   JomoNurse replied to eriksoln's topic in General Nursing

   I typed a long responses and at the last second I accidentally clicked the refresh button. Doh! Basically it said two things 1) You did the right thing, and don't sweat it and, 2) The surgeon should...

5. My pt accused my coworker of taking her Percocets! (long)

   JomoNurse replied to shoegalRN's topic in General Nursing

   Sorry, but I don't believe a word an active drug addict says. If you want to believe them, then fine, you go do that and see how fast they screw you over. I also love the "I hope youre never MY nurse"...

6. My pt accused my coworker of taking her Percocets! (long)

   JomoNurse replied to shoegalRN's topic in General Nursing

   Sorry OP, I didn't mean YOU made her take a drug test. My point was it was insulting that she was made to take a drug test, after a druggie said she hadn't gotten her

   JomoNurse replied to kristak's topic in General Students

   Oh, sorry! I didn't mean my post to be directed at any specific person. It was meant as a general statement. I understand a LOT of people will disagree with it, but trust me, you will agree with it as...

8. My pt accused my coworker of taking her Percocets! (long)

   JomoNurse replied to shoegalRN's topic in General Nursing

   You are correct. Drug addicts don't always lie. But they DO lie in order to get more drugs when the supply is

9. My pt accused my coworker of taking her Percocets! (long)

   JomoNurse replied to shoegalRN's topic in General Nursing

   Honestly, i'm pretty much positive the patient took all 4 pills, and then when you came back in, said she didn't get the PRNs, and she ultimately got you to give her a double dose of it. The fact that...

10. Is this common? Would you take this position?

    JomoNurse replied to RNgrrl09's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't gotten an offer letter either. I just got a phone call from the manager and she asked if I wanted to take the job or not. After that, I made an appointment with HR and signed all of their...

11. RN or radiology technician

    JomoNurse replied to aya123's topic in General Students

    If money and job versatility is your motivating factor, then definitely do the RN route. More money and you'll be able to work at almost anywhere all over the country once you get your 1 years of...

12. Nursing Orders

    JomoNurse replied to 1234student's topic in General Students

    If you read mine then you will see that I said I went off on a rant. Ok, I'm not replying to you anymore. You seem to be combing through my posts and I don't have the time for that right now. Have a...

13. guilty mom

    JomoNurse replied to kristak's topic in General Students

    I really did not intend for it to be that. Please tell me how I could have said what I did, but in a nicer way. Thank you. It just seems like on this board that if you say something that goes against...

14. guilty mom

    JomoNurse replied to kristak's topic in General Students

    Since you have just stated, yourself, that your 4 and 6 year old are being IGNORED, then maybe it would be best to put your schooling on hold so that you can be there in their most crucial years? They...

15. Nursing Orders

    JomoNurse replied to 1234student's topic in General Students

    Nursing orders (diagnoses) are pointless. Nursing organizations, in an effort to "professionalize" a very bluecollar type of working field, wanted to come up with something unique that they could use...
