    Mijourney replied to Ms.NurseyNurse,RN's topic in Case Management

    Wonder what the caseload is during the week. I am aware that full-time nurses for some companies have or did have a 1000 case workload. I'm thinking 500 people for a two day weekend is alot of...

    Did anyone attend the HIMSS VCE? I'd never been to one and thought it was great. Alot of interesting subject matter was presented. The only thing I was disappointed about was that I did not win a...

    Mijourney replied to Dreamer-RN's topic in Nursing Informatics

    No, I do not plan to attend either the HIMSS conference in Orlando or the ANIA-Caring conference in Las Vegas. Traveling, especially on planes, is not my strong suit unless I can drive within a...

  7. New grad jobs in healthcare consulting

    Mijourney replied to Guest463881's topic in Case Management

    I agree with 2dogs. Not to criticize you personally, but it is beyond me why an employer would hire someone fresh out of school into a role that requires experience as a bedside nurse. The stamina...

  11. 2010 HIMSS Virtual Conference

    Mijourney replied to Mijourney's topic in Nursing Informatics

    Well, here goes. Medical informatics more relates to physician practice and the like. Nursing informatics is based on nursing practice, classifications, terminology and so on. You have other...

  13. medical informatics vs. nursing

    Mijourney replied to medg's topic in Nursing Informatics

    I'd go for the RN if nursing is where your heart lies. Once you get that RN under your belt and get bedside experience for several years or more, it's downhill from there (meaning opportunites may...

  14. Suggestions needed for New Nurse and MD Rounds

    Mijourney replied to clhankin67's topic in Case Management

    In my opinion, sounds like this nurse has storytelling imbedded in her personality. Can you formally script her? If she has a form to fill out, maybe that will once and for all get her to focus on...

  17. Editorial from Inside Healthcare Computing

    Mijourney replied to rninformatics's topic in Nursing Informatics

  18. Relationships vs Protocols

    Mijourney replied to jmolinaRN's topic in Nursing Career

    I'm going to jump in and write that no matter what you did, it look like a no win situation in my book. I think the residents did a disservice to you in the first place by trying to cover their...

  19. Looking into cont. edu. Where can I go with a BSN or Masters?

    Mijourney replied to AhappyRN's topic in Nursing Career

    If you don't have experience as a nurse, I would start off with a ADN or BSN. In direct care, it usually does not matter whether you have one or the other. However, if there is a remote chance that...
