  1. RN On-call car plates/sign on cars

    I'm not getting the people who are like oh don't get vanity plates because someone will use it as an excuse to bump you and people will report you for not stopping if there is a traffic accident. I...
  2. Is putting 'BSN' on badge snobbish?

    The people who keep saying putting BSN there is snobbish still haven't proven their point. Just because someone puts BSN after their name doesn't mean they think they're better than everyone else. I'm...
  3. NYP waiting list

    No prob Lola
  4. Is putting 'BSN' on badge snobbish?

    Not snobbish at all. To each his own. If someone wants to put it there it's their right and they can do it if they want. Sometimes we get too worried about what someone else is doing when it has...

    mocha, nym is a member of nyp heath system. so is brooklyn hospital and many other
  6. Am I a stalker????!!!

    It's not being called a stalker, it's being called AMBITIOUS!!! Nothing wrong with it. At least they see that you're 100% interested in being a part of the nursing team. No harm in that. Good
  7. Could I like OB even if I'm an "all natural" kind of girl?

    Nope. As an RN you can work anywhere you want. Even if you are a new grad fresh out of school. Most if not all nursing schools have an OB class with an OB clinical rotation. I know I had one. So most...
  8. Could I like OB even if I'm an "all natural" kind of girl?

    I think you fail to realize that it's not about you, it's about the patient. I don't think your personal beliefs should be factored into this because it's someone else's choice what they want to do...
  9. Second nightshift completed

    Stick it out and give it your best shot. It's still early! After 2 months or so if you still feel the same way, then talk to your NM about it. Feel
  10. Suspended

    Good luck. I wouldn't quit, the job market is not really favorable right now especially since you are a new grad. Hear what they have to say, then take it from there. Learn from your mistakes and...
  11. NYP waiting list

    I don't remember I'm sorry. I applied so many times and always assumed I'd get a reject email as usual but this time I got one saying I'm on the waiting list and I had totally forgotten I even applied...
  12. The recruiter at bellevue was my clinical instructor while i was in nursing school and i called her soon as i got my license and she told me they are not hiring at
  13. What Do Hospitals Check For in Background Checks?

    Many places check your credit score especially if you're in the finanical sector. They want to find out if you're at risk for possibly stealing from them. We nurses have access to people's personal...
  14. NYP waiting list

    I applied dozens of times and didn't get put on the waiting list. I got "you were not selected for an interview, apply again later" something of that
  15. NYP waiting list

    Well, I got the rejection letter about 20 times too and on the 21st try someone contacted me and said i'm on the waiting
  16. Disgusting. Sucks she had to learn the hard way, i'd carry only necessities to work and carry money and credit/debit cards on me at all
  17. Pick your battles with your LNA.....

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say you didn't read the OP's clarification of her intentions. That is why someone else told you that you're dissecting and microanalyzing the post. I'm not going to...
  18. Pick your battles with your LNA.....

    I never she said she was right. I was speaking in regards to ktwlpn's reaction to her calling people pet names. NOT about her refusing to help. I never said I agree with anything the OP said. If we as...
  19. Pick your battles with your LNA.....

    ktwlpn, there is no need to be nasty about it. She isn't purposefully doing anything wrong and you're jumping to conclusions and assuming she's making threats. She calls people honey for christ sake....
  20. Refraining from judging

    As much as you'd like to, you can't save everyone. Sometimes we as nurses just have to accept that. We can try our damndest to help steer a patient in the right direction, but if they don't want the...
  21. Endorsing RN license to NY?

    Good luck, the job market in NY is horrendous. We've had 3 hospitals close in the past 3 years with the most recent being 2 weeks ago. Most of the hospitals are on hiring freezes to accommodate nurses...
  22. Mount Sinai application

    I've applied there and I don't find it confusing at all. It's pretty straight forward. The only thing I agree with you is that there is no place to upload your resume, I guess they want you to fill in...
  23. Job Dilemma

    Sorry Natingale, I can't agree with that. Just because you're making nada now doesn't mean it's okay to be taken advantage of, and people should pay you what you what your worth for the education and...
  24. Can anyone tell me how far Stamford Hospital is from the Stamford's metro north train station? In case I have to commute to Stamford from NYC, I'd like to know if I can walk from the metro north...
