No stars - how did your situation work out? It sounds like the missing topical med was found in the sharps as co-signed as a waste by your coworker. The CNA's account of your touching a patient with a glove on that you also used to touch another pa...

Congratulations on your new job! I'm glad the previous employer didn't destroy you! I also got a new job and am really happy. However, ........let's not forget what we have learned - being graduates from the school of hard knocks. Trust is gon...

Good for you mom1234. You see what its like - it is not an illusion....

As far as I know, it is much more desireable to work with a Union as they strive to provide better working conditions/pay for the employees. The Employers like to pocket the money instead of paying the employees better and having lower nurse to pat...

Don't let it drive you insane. Accept the fact there are no jobs.... Keep moving in the direction of a career. The same thing happened with the dot.com workforce. Everyone went to school for computers, then they had too many people wanting the ...

I'm sorry, but you've been dupped. Nursing school are a business and make money when you pay them. They don't care what happens to you when you graduate. My advice is to continue your education towards something else. If you ever do get that nur...

Apply in the Southern states. They actually have job openings.

A darn good lawyer. It sounds like you were accused of possibly taking patient drugs... A urine test could have cleared that up, unless you have your own at home and sometimes take them as many do... We are only human and have many aches and pains...

And, if you are going to spend time and money on the lawyer - I would go after the company that put that report on your record and charge them with falsification of documents... Hopefully, you documented your side of the story. If they did not subm...

I think people are just talking in general at this point... They are not directed at you personally or your original post any longer - its too far back...

The rude awakening will be when you can't find a job, or if you do, how much the pay will be.

People do not believe what a horrible occupation nursing has turned out to be. It truely is detrimental to one's health. I believe every word you said - and the palpitations, depression, stress - - it's all real. Nursing is the one profession whe...

It's already happened, and will continue.

Oh, I think we can be assured there aren't going to be anymore exorberant procedures on the elderly. In fact, how often they can even go to the doctor will be drastically limited....and, their conditions will get worse quickly, and then they won't q...

what about nurses who have paid into healthcare programs their whole lives, but now have gone part time, per diem or agency? They are ____________. Only option - individual plan, pay 5,000 per year for you and your kids, and a $10,000 deductible ...

We've all paid for health insurance our entire lives, never used, and when we need it - we won't be able to "afford" it and we will all DIE. Funny how that works!

why does my post say 2:50 AM when it is 8:50 pm?

cutting corners is never a good idea....

Wasn't this said in response to the nurses threatening to strike? I wonder how much of it will be retaliation to those that did strike. All of a sudden, written warnings being documented, ect... A prelude to firing a few "difficult" nurses. That'...

Can you believe the Billions they have spent making their hospitals look prettier. Like a resort. What a joke - yes, rising healthcare costs... duh. Whoever made those decisions should be fired.

if they are going to have fewer nurses, then they need to have fewer patients. Oh, yeah, they will - people won't qualify for care and will die. For some reason the united states cannot take care of the elderly. Just let them die. That's the solu...

yes, many days...

There will be PLENTY of poop and icky stuff you will be emersed in. In fact, the CNAs have a funny way of always having someone else in the shower when you call them for help. You'll be on your own cleaning it up.

If they cut nurses, there will be more mistakes and death and LAWSUITS.

They need to cut MANAGEMENT. The Assistant Director, and the Assistant Director's Assistant, and the other Directors of the Directors, and the Manager under the Director, etc., etc., etc. How many chiefs does the tribe need?
