evolvingrn BSN, RN

Perhaps in some places.... Where I work we will get you in same day.... And this behavior still happens. ( or they make an appointment ... No show..... And then go to the Er )

If you had it " for awhile" it should have addressed elsewhere than the Er...we can argue back and forth but this misuse of our medical system when compiled all together is a huge issue. I'm glad your earache was addressed ....I just wish you had u...

Yes! You should have! You don't need to treat the majority of ear infections in adults....

Good luck! It's good to start early.

Shrug I have always liked nurse practitioners and used them instead of mds .... Even before I was a nurse. ( I now have a Md who I found to deliver my children and stuck with her because she is fabulous) I am a conservative prescriber and think I fol...

I was offered 84000 as a new grad and then within a few months they bumped it to 96000 as they changed their structure. No bonus or Rvu based pay

Come now..... How much one on one do you actually spend with a pt???? I will take my 40 bucks an hour with the occasional challenging pt compared to making 8 dollars an hour standing constantly on my feet with even more people still being rude and ...

Care mgt, nurse practitioner, psych nurse...... There are less stressful jobs to be had

When I was a camp nurse, meds were camper responsibility..... We had labeled pill enveloped (name, med, dose, scheduled time) that we pre filled. I would sit in dining hall with dixi cups and juice during meals and they came and got them at their lei...

That is perhaps collaboration? A pa must be supervised by a md in all 50 states..... I think the question was more if a np in a state of independent practice could fill that role

To think that most programs are that methodical in their placements would be naive... IMHO.

Sounds like acute Care. I do not like codes! I am an fnp and it's perfect for me. I still see crazy stuff but I rarely get the adrenaline rush

Hang in there! I get your frustration. I am a clinical instructor and word on the street is I'm rather tough.:) but My goal is to help every person get to where they need to be so they are successful and prepared. Rise up to her expectations. Clarif...

A pa is supervised by a md so I would guess no?

There is a lot that has to be done at the start of a shift. If it can be done by the leaving shift....... It should be.......... If it can't ....no biggie..... But let's not act like we all wouldn't roll our eyes if we got left with this pt....

Lol because I don't like to be talked about[emoji12]..... And we all know that right or wrong that is what is going to happen if you leave stuff.( or they write your manager). This is the culture of nursing..... At least everywhere I have worked I am...

You left an Iv , ng tube, and high blood pressure....... Sounds like you tried your best....but this pt was not well managed. Logical or not..... Most nurses get frustrated at the other nurse when getting a pt like this. ( ps. I tried never to lea...

Hope not!

Those numbers were over a length of time.... That is quite an identifier. It happens all the time . I have a child with sn and a rare condition.....case managers always try to sound experienced by telling me they have worked with another child with ...

Sn community is super small.... A baby on a trach is rare enough it's an identifier. Hope you don't get into too much trouble.

They aren't an np.... They merely spend their free time bashing their education

My employer paid for my dea.... Also a collaborating physician is suppose to be someone you have easy access to so also usually provided by your employer

Wow. I get 5 weeks to start and 1 week for ceu /1500. That is standard around here... If not on the lower side

No pto (do you get any time off to use that $1500 for CEUs) and 2 weeks pto..... That seems low in both counts.

We have pts call us all the time and say my psychiatrist wants a vitamin d and Cbc ..... Or clonidine levels ..... We just order and have to the results faxed
