  1. 2014 Winter Article Contest

    I was too vague: there are a variety of forums categorized under 'General Nursing' (e.g., 'Nurses Rock', 'Nursing and Spirituality') - are these
  2. 2014 Winter Article Contest

    Hi Joe, What would be some examples of appropriate/eligible forums for article
  3. A Question for Night shift Psych Nurses - Do you limit PRNs?

    I am the lone night nurse on a small community hospital acute inpatient psychiatric unit. I agree with several salient points made by the OP & commenters. I value an "uneventful" night (no string...
  4. Why should I become a Psych RN?

    The only reason I went to nursing school was to become a nurse anesthetist; then I did a few psych rotations and I was hooked. If you suspect this specialty is something you would especially like for...
  5. Sacred heart University MSN

    I finished SHU's RN-BSN online program about a year ago (its inaugural class). It took two years and seemed interminable, but I'm glad I did it. The only reason I enrolled was to be able to get into a...

  7. Felon, RN

    Remember that time I spent 120 days in jail for a felony conviction? Good times. I'd rather not disclose why I ended up there, but I deserved it. My wife & I operated a successful business at the...

  9. Communicate with your state board as much as possible before registering for school. Congratulations on being accepted, by the way. They may give you ambiguous responses, but save the communication...
  10. allnurses.com Article Contest - 4th Quarter 2011

    I know you guys are probably swimming in headaches since the upgrade, but I woke up this morning feeling a little upset. I submitted an article after the 15th evidently, but had received some very...
  11. allnurses.com Article Contest - 4th Quarter 2011

    No problem. Thanks for the prompt response, sir. Is the contest over? Should I bother? Honest answer, please, because I would prefer to not submit if there's no point. Also, change is good. You're...
  12. allnurses.com Article Contest - 4th Quarter 2011

    My article seems to have disappeared. Oh
  13. allnurses.com Article Contest - 4th Quarter 2011

    Another dumb question: How are these contests judged? By the number of user 'kudos', comments, etc.? By staff? Pieces of paper in a hat? You'll probably say by some combination of the first two, which...
  14. allnurses.com Article Contest - 4th Quarter 2011

    @sir1: I get 'Antigonish' stuck in my head sometimes. Nice. Also: Why does this site (& 'Central') have these contests? Or rather, why (and how) do you pay enough money to make it worth putting...

    Can I write about my personal experiences with turkey gravy and yule
  16. New Grad Resume

    I'm of the opinion that "work experience" doesn't necessarily mean health care or nursing experience. I had several careers before graduating nursing school, none of which had anything to do with...
  17. yes, another night shift post.

    "what can I do to make my experience during my shift more positive?" One of the reasons I took a position working nights after I graduated was the downtime. I'll be finished with an online RN-BSN...
  18. Need Help!!!!

    (I just deleted the beginning of a post about how people need to get over the negative connotations associated with the evil, demeaning term "customer service" when used in the healthcare context. How...
  19. Online BSN

    I'm almost done w/ an online RN-BSN program. I got my ASN through an accelerated program, started working & took a year off from school before starting this program. I work nights, so I have...

  21. A co-worker peeve- VENT!

    The main reason I love nights is because I don't have to work with a few other staff members on my unit. I couldn't do it. Rotten people with awful attitudes, garbage work ethics, who wallow in their...
  22. Why are X so Y?

    Well
  23. I thought I was going to be rich when I had an idea in nursing school for an organizer, but similar products already exist (like
  24. Other Nurses

    There should be a discussion category entitled "Cathartic Rants". The biggest problem with nursing is ... other nurses. This is how I feel this morning. Other nurses, awful nurses who are awful...
  25. How do you cope with work and co-workers:(

    Oops. Just posted an identical thread. Guess this is how you deal with it. Thx,
