    How Technology Can Solve the Nurse Staffing Shortage

  9. I agree. And when you do go back, don't talk about your situation. People will naturally ask how you are and will express their condolences. Thank them and change the subject. Tell them you...
  10. You offer tremendous wisdom, Emergent. We can honor our deceased loved ones by living honorably. We can cry and break down PRN and then get back up and move on. Life can be awfully hard but we...
  11. Maybe you could just do part-time for a while. Maybe work half days? That way you would still keep your hand in there and would show the job that you really do want to come back. Sadly, the US...
  12. I guess they meant well. But that is about the cheapest gift I have ever heard of for Nurses' Week. The idea guy will probably get promoted. Maybe next year they will give a feather....

    Osteomyelitis Way Back When

    What type of patients do you care for, Tweety? Elderly, diabetic, in a facility? Other? So chronic osteo is not so unusual, it seems. What do these patients actually die from? Infection...

    When You Hear Hoofbeats

    Working with an unlicensed RN

    I could be wrong. But I think you have no responsibility re: her licensure or lack thereof. Why would you? You did not hire her, you are not required to keep up with the status of anyone's license...
