    Curious1alwys replied to Graduatenurse14's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Curious1alwys replied to Preeps's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This is so depressing. All I am is a nurse who would LOVE to "have the time" for her patients.I have only just enough time to keep them alive and medicated. For me, this lack of time is the hardest...

    Curious1alwys posted a topic in General Nursing

    Curious1alwys replied to NatalieBridges's topic in General Nursing

    Man, you got some deep thoughts!!! Eh, don't sweat it, I'm approaching 40 and I don't have anything figured out either. One piece of advice though: I don't think you should leave entirely. You will...

    Can I pass PCCN with one year experience?

    Curious1alwys posted a topic in Cardiac

    I really want to get certified so is it realistic to expect that I can pass this test with only one year of Tele experience? If I studied pretty intensely, like an hour a day or so, do you think I...

    Can I pass PCCN with one year experience?

    Curious1alwys replied to Curious1alwys's topic in Cardiac

    I think this is where the confusion on two years is coming from but the worked hours requirement still stands: • Practice as an RN or APRN for 1,750 hours in direct bedside care of acutely ill adult...

    Can I pass PCCN with one year experience?

    Curious1alwys replied to Curious1alwys's topic in Cardiac

    I don't know if they changed the requirements or what but one AACN site it says 1750 hours so by my calculations that is one year full time work. That is what I am going by. Now, if I can actually...

    Curious1alwys replied to adpiRN's topic in General Nursing

    LOL, well, yes there is always "jerk potential" but there is also an adjustment period too and let's face it, especially for guys. Especially when MOM has been picking up the slack for a while. My...

    Don't think my marriage will survive night shift

    Curious1alwys replied to adpiRN's topic in General Nursing

    LOL. Problem is, you husband got USED to you being home. Now it's different. And you don't NEED the money. Oftentimes, in this situation, the idea of working is much nicer than the reality of working...

    Why do you like home care? What are the advantages?

    Curious1alwys replied to smartandgrit's topic in Home Health

    Why is it that it took you 16 years to feel this way but I feel this way after only a little over a year!??? Thank you for your insight on HH, it really is an area i'd like to get my feet wet in....

    Can you do HH one day a week?

    Curious1alwys posted a topic in Home Health

    I am interested in HH but want to get my feet wet, really, and can't work much because of commitments at home. Is it possible to do this job one day a week at an easy pace? Just for some extra $$? Or...

    Do you think your work place should support healthy eating?

    Curious1alwys replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I don't really give a hoot if my hospital should support healthy eating, I just wish they would work harder to support actually eating anything. LOL. To be honest, when I read the title of this thread...
