  1. FNP in ER

    mojitos2go replied to jamiejo05's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Congrats on passing your boards! You must be beyond excited. I left ICU to work on the reimbursement side for the ED so I could work from home. I am impressed with the NPs' documentation. I rarely...

    mojitos2go replied to MassED's topic in Emergency

    I see a lot money left on the table due to hydration and therapeutic infusion stop times not documented. Do you think staffing budgets would increase if more reimbursement occurred or would that money...

    mojitos2go replied to MassED's topic in Emergency

    Measure 28 for PQRS (Physician Quality Reporting System) - Aspirin at arrival for AMI. Incentive payments peaked at 2% in 2009 and 2010 but dropped to 1% for 2011 and 0.5% for years 2012-2014....

  6. Taking time off from nursing...tips on keeping up skills?

    mojitos2go replied to craimondo's topic in General Nursing

    I took off for 6 months a couple of times over the years when my husband went to sea during his Navy days. The time flew by. There were some equipment and P&P changes, but after a few busy 12 hour...

  7. Fired from my med/surg job after almost 3 years

    mojitos2go replied to gettingbsn2msn's topic in General Nursing

    You must feel like you are in a nightmare that won't end. I am sorry for your pain and the management team's soul-less behavior. How do these folks sleep at night or even get into nursing? The PTB...

  8. overreacting or not, that is the question!?!

    mojitos2go replied to luvmyhubbybunches's topic in General Nursing

    Good Lord! The nurse seemed rather callous telling you, a nurse, that you have a mass without an explanation from the provider. Aye, yaye, yaye. Don't we tend to think of the worse case scenario when...

  9. Tufts nurses vote 70% to authorize strike

    mojitos2go replied to Chin up's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    In addition to safe staffing ratios, I propose: every member of administration (CNO, CFO, COO, CEO, UFO...) will don scrubs and running shoes to shadow a nurse for an entire 12.5 hour shift every six...

    mojitos2go replied to Chin up's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Union Busting 101. Administration loves to divide and conquer. The public is clueless unless they have a family member or friend in the biz. Thanks for the reply,

  13. Nurses receiving poor care....

    mojitos2go replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in General Nursing

    When I had my daughter, the staff knew I was a nurse from the facesheet info. The poor young nurse was so nervous while starting an IV, I told her, "I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin' no babies!"...

  14. Nurses receiving poor care....

    mojitos2go replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in General Nursing

    "Mom is a nurse and she stays the night," was probably the first part of the shift report. Many moons ago, I walked into my then 6 yo's room; she screamed at a nurse using only a kelly clamp during a...

  15. Tufts nurses vote 70% to authorize strike

    mojitos2go replied to Chin up's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Chin Up, do you have any idea how the community feels about the nurse's fight at Tuft's? Are folks supportive? There seems to be a lot of nurse-bashing in the Comments section of the Boston Herald...

  16. Tufts nurses vote 70% to authorize strike

    mojitos2go replied to Chin up's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I would not cross the picket line of striking colleagues. Nurses are little more than an expense on a balance sheet to administration. Any lawful method to expose the good ole boy network, their...
