  1. Residencies: doctors have it figured out

    Mijourney replied to Amistad's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but the pathway to medical education seems to be more typical then the pathway to nursing education. Basic nursing education is very diverse as opposed to basic medical...

    Update. This film is supposed to be aired on CNN on Saturday, March 10, 2013 at 8 pm and 10 pm EST. It also will air again on March 16. I would highly recommend you watch it if at all

  4. Case management stress

    Mijourney replied to cawkazn's topic in Case Management

  5. Case management stress

    Mijourney replied to cawkazn's topic in Case Management

    How sad to see your posts. What type of case management do you do? Worker's comp, pediatric, hospital-based,

  6. Any cons toward accepting a UR position and leaving bedside?

    Mijourney replied to Heartyournurse's topic in Case Management

    One of the basis for nursing case management is that you provided care as a nurse. I agree with previous posters who state that their careers in case management got off the ground only after direct...

  7. Nurses: Why do many of you do this?

    Mijourney replied to terina66's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I understand the OP's point. It is distasteful to discuss the personal matters of our patients. It is especially problematic when you're at work and you don't know who is listening and who is...

  8. Replaced by Certified Medication Aide!

    Mijourney replied to ladyjanelpn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    It's unfortunate that the disabled and elderly get so little respect in my country of residence, the U.S. These people are at the most vulnerable of their life when receiving institutionalized care...

  9. HIT-Pro Exam

    Mijourney posted a topic in Nursing Informatics

    Hi Everyone. I thought that some of you may want to know about the following: Through April 1, Health Information Technology Professional (HIT Pro) competency exams are available at no charge. Each...

  10. frequently used software in CM

    Mijourney replied to nursingosaurus's topic in Case Management

    Imperial, I agree with MBARNBSN. I worked for a MCO or insurance company who trained me on their software when I worked in their CM department. This was before I got my first PC years ago. There was...

  11. Nursing Informatics Masters - should I take the plunge?

    Mijourney replied to overtonis's topic in Nursing Informatics

    I know this thread is dated but I will offer my two cents. What I'm seeing is strong endorsements by both the health informatics and nursing profession for graduate degrees. It's not clear to me...

  12. Replaced by Certified Medication Aide!

    Mijourney replied to ladyjanelpn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    However, if it works for the patient, family, and staff who am I to look down on

  13. Replaced by Certified Medication Aide!

    Mijourney replied to ladyjanelpn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Hmm... So I guess that those of us licensed as RNs will be paying higher malpractice rates in these scenarios? We'll need the additional coverage if we become responsible for supervising both LPNs...

  14. What are some personality traits needed to be a great nurse?

    Mijourney replied to KayyyT's topic in General Nursing

    Don't allow your personality to get stuck in a rut. Grow in wisdom and compassion. Don't allow your personality to become warped and jaded by sour experiences. Have a personality that rebounds and...

  15. Critical Thinking: you have it or you don't. Agree or disagree?

    Mijourney replied to LTCnurse11's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Once again, great discussion everyone! This may come off as... well I'll let you be the judge. It would seem that some of us are defining critical thinking in stages whereas the OP indicated that in...

  16. Be the type of nurse you want to work with

    Mijourney replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    Brian thanks for the quote. The golden rule is alive and well for me. Application of the golden rule is necessary in order to be able to not only survive but thrive in the work place. Even when...

  17. Critical Thinking: you have it or you don't. Agree or disagree?

    Mijourney replied to LTCnurse11's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Great points everybody! No, I do not see critical thinking in black and white. That's too oversimplified in my opinion. I do agree with those who say that the environment in which you were born and...

  18. How to deal with the old/experienced nurses?!

    Mijourney replied to Anna-s's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I thank the administrators and guides for stepping in to what is otherwise an interesting conversation. We should be mindful that our values differ and that this is also true in the work place which...

  19. Feeling like a servant

    Mijourney replied to nurseywifeymommy1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I did home health at one point and you have to make it clear each and every time you visit what your priorities are. When I admitted patients to home health, I informed them that the patient is...

  20. Feeling like a servant

    Mijourney replied to nurseywifeymommy1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Yes queen waitressing is alot like nursing you serve others but you try to do it in such as way that you are not abused. As I indicated earlier, the problem with servitude is that it that it has...

  21. Feeling like a servant

    Mijourney replied to nurseywifeymommy1's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm going to chime in with a different perspective. I do believe that nurses are servants. Physicians and other staff are servants as well. If you will go deep with me for a moment, especially...

  22. How to deal with the old/experienced nurses?!

    Mijourney replied to Anna-s's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Anna-s, I'm going to guess you are female - not because of your username but because from the start, your post indicates you are relationship-oriented. Most women fall into this category. You care...

  23. Nursing Informatics advice

    Mijourney replied to RN1023's topic in Nursing Informatics

    RN1023, I agree with previous posters. Many reputable brick and mortar schools have online programs in nursing informatics. I generally go with the more established public institutions which tend to...

  24. Fallout of Obamacare Question: Best Advanced Nursing Degree To Pursue?

    Mijourney replied to asiangal's topic in Post Graduate Students

    IMO, do what you think you will enjoy and what will positively impact others who are in need of what you have to offer. I've been a nurse for a very long time and it concerns me that young people are...

  25. Who actually likes nursing??

    Mijourney replied to mmcnabb3's topic in General Nursing

    I enjoy the status of being an RN, but I do not enjoy the attitudes of many of the nurses I encounter. The trick is not to take your co-workers to heart. If you do, you will be frustrated by your...
