  3. Soooo, I quit

    bostonbakednurse replied to TX911's topic in General Nursing

    Being a frequent job seeker, I can assure you that how you left that job is of no importance, as long as you don't tell your next employer why you left. When you give names and numbers of references,...

  4. Any white middle aged travel nurses out there?

    bostonbakednurse replied to bostonbakednurse's topic in Travel

    Actually, "white" does not factor into anything as far as I am concerned. I began this thread under another thread "Are there any black middle aged/young nurses out there?" I was curious to see...

    bostonbakednurse replied to beeble's topic in General Nursing

    bostonbakednurse replied to grownuprosie's topic in General Students

    I have no problem hearing anything as long as it is not in ear of the patients! I have a hard time with people that talk about their private life in front of the patients. It drives me crazy. Some go...

  10. IV Certification in Mass

    bostonbakednurse replied to watersamy's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I have taken IV courses provided by hospitals I previously worked for. They were usually given by the Nurse Educator/Infection Control Nurse. They let you practice on a fake arm, you take a short...

    bostonbakednurse replied to sra27's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  14. east coast people

    bostonbakednurse replied to sdeal's topic in Infusion, Intravenous

    Have you thought of travel nursing to get your foot in the door somewhere that you are considering? That can help expose you to many different hospitals. I am new at travel nursing, but when I had a...

  16. Am I wrong for calling off? Please help!

    bostonbakednurse replied to np2b4me's topic in General Nursing

    UNSAFE STAFFING!!! That's incredible!! Agree, fill out unsafe staffing report/incident report. I might have actually threatened to call the media if they did not do something about it. Now that...

    bostonbakednurse replied to weatherbugs's topic in Travel

    I am wondering if the difference in experiences within the same companies is due to the length of time the applicants have been nursing. I'm thinking that that might be because the more experienced...

    bostonbakednurse replied to All4NursingRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    For your own protection, write up the events of that occurrence. Just record all the facts, who was present, when who said what, what room, the time and date. Keep it on hand at home. Make sure it...

  21. Help, am I overreacting or is this normal???

    bostonbakednurse replied to spicy1's topic in Medical-Surgical

    I don't believe you are overreacting. Did they ask you? Where I have been before, they give nurses the choice. I always refused when asked. My refusal had nothing to do with patient care. I got hired...

  22. Coworker going to turn down "diamond" job because of training location...seriously?

    bostonbakednurse replied to Marshall1's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't take the job either. That would be a good excuse why not to accept the job. I will have to remember that excuse if I ever need
