  7. I'm trying my best, but seriously stop putting me down on the phone

    You stated to ignore the doctors orders. Where is the logic in that? I think you might be a bit burnt out on ER, perpahs you should give LTC a shot? Think of how much better you could make by...
  8. I'm trying my best, but seriously stop putting me down on the phone

  13. I'm trying my best, but seriously stop putting me down on the phone

    What exactly is the "line of reasoning" you are accusing me of? Don't put words in my mouth. Are you having a bad day? I hope it gets better for you. I am starting to wonder if you are the nurse the...
  14. I'm trying my best, but seriously stop putting me down on the phone

    It is not "hiding behind the md" if the MD wants the patient sent out. I do not work in skilled nursing, but I would call it more CYA on the snfs behalf.They do not staff to wait and see and you can't...
  15. I'm trying my best, but seriously stop putting me down on the phone

    You will always run into nurses like this. I usually just feel sorry for them. The highlight of their day is ruining yours, so don't let it. I usually say "Wow are you having a bad day?" and tell them...

  21. Is Dialysis considered Critical Care?

    I don't think dialysis is critical care at all, but acute dialysis you are taking care of critical/ icu patients. I would not say it is critical care experience per se, but you do get to care for...
  22. The more interviews you have the more they want you. It is like you keep making the cut for the next step and it is a good sign. I think you will have an offer
  23. I do not know anything about Wisonsin! Do you know what part of Georgia you will be in, or will you be living downtown? Downtown hospitals pay a little better. New grads start in Georgia anywhere from...
