    blumuffy replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

    blumuffy replied to RNCM123's topic in Nursing Career

  12. Can I ask to work exclusively day shifts?

    blumuffy replied to kassiahgp's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe you can get support during your years of nursing school. Clinical rotations can be crazy too, so think ahead on how to best deal with childcare. Once you graduate perhaps you can look for work...

  13. Regular hours?

    blumuffy replied to maco1's topic in General Nursing

    After 12 years on the floor, I now work a 7-4 non-patient care job. I think without the patients working daily is easier. I rarely bring work home, and if I do it's because it's my choice to do so....

  14. Ethical dilemma, what would you do?

    blumuffy replied to Riburn3's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Take the interview and see what happens. Although you do not deal with the office manager, what is going on will eventually affect you. It would be wise to gather any documentation you can of any...

  15. computers

    blumuffy replied to terri visco's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Are they implying that nurses are now like computers? That can't be right because computers don't care for money. While nurses (myself in particular) seem to thrive on it. Time to go shopping on the...

    blumuffy replied to gabriela1993's topic in General Nursing

    I was just thinking new tires/snow tires or chains (I live in the South so s&*t if I know) and save that

  19. Non clinical nursing careers

    blumuffy replied to missFedUp's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Be on the lookout for jobs in quality, or chart auditing. Those will not require any patient contact. Infection control may not as well. Best of

  20. Would you hire an MUSC grad over anyone else?

    blumuffy replied to lowkey_44's topic in General Nursing

    Why would someone in MUSC make a better nurse? Shouldn't they be working with Adele? I don't know what's going on here. Gonna daydream about

  21. Master's degree

    blumuffy replied to scrubsrn24's topic in School

    I do. Got it in Health Care Systems Management from Loyola New Orleans. They actually offer the program online as well as being a brick and mortar facility. I work in a corporate setting and this is...

  22. I was happy once. Then I became a nurse

    blumuffy replied to ebart03's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree with EAP and also the FMLA comments. Use the FMLA time to look for another job. Maybe you need another area of healthcare to work in since this is not the job for you. Perhaps clinic work? I...

  23. Where did you start working right after getting your RN license?

    blumuffy replied to xmilkncookiesx's topic in General Nursing
