  1. PNP and MAT in Special Ed

    Jerrysdogmommy posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am starting my MAT in Special ED and my PNP as well (both very slowly, 1 class each at a time). I'd like to mesh the two together and come up with a program where I treat the patient's medically...

  2. Called off too many times?

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to MS0298's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I think you don't like your job. I'd rather you find what job you like in nursing or if you think you made a bad decision becoming a nurse, it's okay, get out of it. But don't call off like that....

  4. Need help on resigning!

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to Snr1003's topic in General Nursing

    I could have written your posting myself, almost down to the time as a nurse. Because of this, I have decided to leave nursing. I love the profession dearly however, it's full of negative people...

  5. New grad of PMHNP. Is this a typical first job experience?

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to katprit80's topic in Advanced Practice

    While I've been accepted to a psych NP program, I'm not certain if this is for me. What I see myself doing is helping people uncover what's "really" going on and helping the individual identify the...

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to Aviationurse's topic in Agency Nurses

    Yes. I am in an assignment just like what you describe. And it sucks. I wish they'd cancel

  7. Not just a waitress

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to oceangirl1234's topic in General Nursing

    Years ago, I'd think, "If they only knew how hard I worked to get here!!"...now, I say, "Here you go!! Water on the rocks!! Call me if you need anything" and I leave the room after doing a quick...

  8. Would you go to another career fair if you already accepted an offer somewhere else?

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to Bunsbuns's topic in General Nursing

    No. The nursing world is small and you could run into so-and-so that knew you did this and when you need a (future) job but because you dropped that gig like a hot potato, said manager or now CNO...

  11. Anyone attending Kaplan or Walden University?

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to tadahh99's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  12. Male Nurse Disgusted by Female Nurses

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    This is why I left nursing. I love nursing; I cannot take the cattiness of it anymore. I have been group texted about by a charge nurse and her "groupies"; lied about where I was pulled into an...

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to joenska's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Check out West Texas. There are two hospitals there. Even if you're there for a short-time (2 years), at least you'll have the experience necessary to go back to either Iowa or Colorado. West Texas...

  14. Orienting a new hire - issues

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to teleRN08's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You need to unload this individual. She will leave as soon as she finds something else...that's the type of person she is. I cannot understand how these people go through nursing school and do not...

  15. New nurses feel like quitting?

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to Patti_RN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I 100% concur and wish I did not have to. Nursing is about cliques and backstabbing. I am just about one year out and am leaving this profession as soon as I find something else. It breaks my heart...

    Jerrysdogmommy replied to np7797's topic in Nursing Career

    Nursing is a 2nd career for me (although I have 10 months left til I graduate) & I've thought about this too, if nursing doesn't pan out, I'd either go to law school or get my Masters in Biotech...
