I don't know of this is the best thing to do but I sleep from about 10 am-4pm on the days I work. Like others said I like to be on a normal schedule on my days off. So when coming to a day off I sleep only about 2-3 hours maybe 4 just so I am not e...

I just started a new job in a nursing home and I am having a hard time. I have about 26 residents to take care of and I basically spend the whole time giving meds. I have no time for treatments or documentation. All my documentation usually gets d...

Can you explain to me why med/surg is so bad Ltc is really all I have worked because I can't get a job in acute care. So I really would like to hear your opinion and anybody else's on what the pros and cons of each field is. Thanks

Is acute care easier since there is less patients

I just started a 11p-7a shift in a LTC facility and I am having a hard time adjusting. I am always tired and can't seem to get into a routine. I have only been working for about a week but I don't know how I can go on. I said when I started I will...

right now I sleep from about 9-3 or 4 but I am always tired so I think I need to change it. I do have family but they usually don't bother my sleep schedule.

I finally got a job! After 5 months of searching I got a job in a nursing home. Its not my dream job but I will take it for the experience. My advice to everyone looking for jobs is to give your resume to everyone you know. I gave my resume to so ...

haven't heard of it specifically but maybe it is like an employee health nurse

I like greys anatomy or buttersoft both are very comfortable

I am sure this has already been asked but I couldn't find it. Is an online RN to BSN program inferior to a regular school?

I think you should go straight for your BSN. I have a ADN and I am having a lot of difficulty finding a job. I have heard that there are some places that most nurses only have and ADN so unless where you live is one of those places I would suggest ...

I have been looking for more then 2 months and have only one interview for a job that I knew I wasn't going to take. I didn't send them my resume, I gave it to a friend who gave it to someone else who gave it to them (I think). I have tried going in...

Wow! thanks everyone I may have a job offer in one of these 2 areas. It looks to me that it is almost unanimous to go for the PACU. If they give me the job and a choice I will go for that.

kinda the same if it is an overnight camp... lot of homesick kids that are not really sick. of course done make any assumptions and risk the kids health

In my camp one of the staff members called the infirmary the infirmatory. so we called ourselves infirmarologists

I know the summer is over and this is too late for you but... I had the same job in a camp and was wondering that also. (I was officially an RN the last week or 2 as I past NCLEX a few weeks before the end). When the health inspector cam he asked m...

I have been looking for a job for about two months after passing my boards. A few days ago I received a call from a home healthcare company saying they would like me to come in for an interview. I really don't know so much about home health care an...

Update: this is the weirdest job I have heard of. I went for an interview even though I was pretty sure I wasn't going to take the job. They told me what this job is. They said that I would be going to people's houses and doing a "No-Hands-on asses...

That is actually my main concern that if I have any questions it would be hard to figure out what I should do since I wouldn't have another co-worker down the hall to ask.

My school is not yet accredited by the NLN. They do have canidate status. Is this going to hurt me when I have to look for a job? it is also an associates degree so if it will hurt me will going to an accredited bsn program help? Thanks

I agree with Wrench party 100% My teacher is a horrible lecturer. She is boring and cant teach. My wife who is a teacher listened to one of my classes that I had recorded and was telling me all of the bad teaching habits. just one example i can t...

I am still in school but people used to ask me what I am in school for and when I told them they would give me a funny look and say oh you are going to be a male nurse. I always wanted to say (as bill engval would say) nope gonna try to be a female o...

I add I am still a student, but I want the hustle and bustle of a busy ER. I think that it will be good for me because I will have many patients with different problems.

once again i havent looked into it but as an emt wouldnt they have the scene management and other things necessary to be a paramedic?

that was what i was told didnt look into it more than that can you explain what you mean by no
