acute psych there are very little fluids... not any i've seen.. just minor blood drip from the cuts on the wrist,, but superficial..

hi guys i'm a new nurse in psych, i'm getting some cold feet with going in.. the paper work is SOOO much. it's nonstop charting. i've literally been scared to death that if my patient kill himself/ i forgot to chart this that, chart wrong (given the crazy amount of paperwork, the 5150 holds, 5250 holds making sure the expiration and interventions... that perhaps if i mess up on any part of the job, my license/ job is GONE. its almost like the liability issues are soooo high. and the suicidal risk is sooo high. even with Q15 checks, its easy for the person to be sneaky and hang themself even with a bra. (true story...) i'm a new grad, all this losing your license talk is pretty scary. i hope on the real unit, it isnt THIS intense to the point where i would feel like i can loose my license any minute, doing small little things. oh and you can get spit on/ chair thrown at

Wow what a dreadful year this has been looking for a job in california, bay area. It's an absolute NIGHTMARE!!!! Each manager getting 1000+ applications, horrifying!!! Finally I managed to pull through after 1 year of nonstop preservation :) It's at a local hospital, close to my home, with decent wages. I'm just stoked this new grad nightmare is finally over.

for a RN at a travel agency, they offered $25 in the bay area...california.

Association of Women's Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN) try this professional organization!! maybe u can even get a membership, and then come prepared with some reading some updated evidenced based journal article- impress them with some current research. mother baby is my absolute favorite :)
