  1. Intimidating? ME?

    CFitzRN replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't have any real advice as I feel too far-removed and unfamiliar with your situation but I wanted to say that I work in a family medical practice with 6 doctors and 2 FNPs and the FNPs are...

  2. can i become a nurse if i have a mental disability?

    CFitzRN replied to donnalou86's topic in General Nursing

    This made me laugh. Really

  3. CPR certification

    CFitzRN replied to tiredstudentmom's topic in General Nursing

    Don't get upset - people tend to be very blunt online because they aren't face-to-face with the person with whom they are speaking. Don't let it get to you. Just a little info - I work in a family...

  4. 1 year in and I cannot do bedside anymore!

    CFitzRN replied to mycatmax's topic in General Nursing

    Mel, you are ME. I'm not kidding - I was you after graduating nursing school and beginning work at our local hospital on the L&D floor - A dream I have had for many years. I was totally...

    CFitzRN replied to platanos1's topic in General Nursing

    Skater, you are so not alone in your feelings about the way this nation's hospitals are going. I was absolutely overwhelmed with the oppressive feeling of the hospital where I first started in my...

  6. how many colonoscopies per day?

    CFitzRN replied to ajaxgirl's topic in Gastroenterology

    Holy moly!! I do the same work you do but we would freak out if they did more than 13 cases in one day per procedure room! That's a lot of work. We allow 45 mins for doubles, 35 mins for colons, 15...

  7. Becoming an Endoscopy Nurse

    CFitzRN replied to ttraceyanne's topic in Gastroenterology

    I really don't think so. With 3 years of ER nursing, I think you'd be "an easy teach". My recommendation would be to work for an independent GI practice. M-F, no weekends or holidays, low-acuity...

  8. Endoscopy RN...would you recommend it?

    CFitzRN replied to stefanitenzi's topic in Gastroenterology

    And "mental status" means "neurological status,"

  9. Endoscopy RN...would you recommend it?

    CFitzRN replied to stefanitenzi's topic in Gastroenterology

    I have worked as the lead PRN nurse at an Endo Unit in a free-standing GI practice for a year now. While in school, I always joked about how I hated poo. I mean, who would really like it? When I...

  10. First 2 months at work - need some advice (stress is piling)

    CFitzRN replied to IcanHealYou's topic in General Nursing

    Let me tell ya brotha (haha), it really sounds like you're exactly where you should be right now. Doing at least a year on a medical floor will be amazing experience for you and you will be able to...

  11. I am soooo Stressed at my Job I want to quit!!!!!

    CFitzRN replied to platanos1's topic in General Nursing

    2 YEARS?? That is a huge accomplishment! And now that you've done two years on a med-surg floor, you can do virtually anything. What are your interests? Would you like to work in an independent...
