  1. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    This is the idea I am attempting to get across. Thank you!
  2. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    The two example in which you chosen to present, back-up my point very well. The patient was shown to be going south, but no interventions were instituted. The other example didn't have anything to do with the original patient. And, anytime someone b...
  3. You really don't get it do you? I personally would terminate you for such a senseless action. 7 months on the job and Boom! What are you thinking?
  4. I would do all three actually....and I would attempt to do them simultaneously:thankya:.
  5. Inappropriate Behavior

    Oh Lord...people need to take a chill pill. Why make something more of a situation than there really is. I am pretty sure if you mentioned it to the administration, her *^& would be fired the next day. Do really want her to lose her job over some...
  6. It is none of their bee's wax... You owe nothing!
  7. Some past school-related mistakes

    If I were you, which I know is physically impossible, I would talk directly with a school representative. That is the only way you are going to know! Good luck to you and your endeavors.:)
  8. "You've got 4 days to improve or else..." ... advice?

    and, you accepted the position? Holy cows, and aunt susan
  9. Want out of contract

    Contracts are not to be broken. You say it is not fair to your family? Why is it fair for you to break your contract with the facility? You signed the deal, now it is time to swallow the pill.
  10. What's with all this disciplinary action?????

    I believe the original post is about individual facilities, and not official disciplinary hearing of BONs.
  11. Not having answers to interview questions

    I agree with the above posters. I personally hate interviews with a HR Representative. It is a standard generic formatted questionaire they follow, and it accomplishes nothing but aggravating the &*?& out of someone; unfortunately it is somet...
  12. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    I know...and then I think I am going to far sometimes, and become paranoid, and next thing a "guide" or "staff" agent of this site will pull my registration. I am sorry! oops!
  13. what's eligibility?

    eligibility...it means you meet the stipulated requirements of your State's BON. eligibility e l i g i l i t y eligibility
  14. Burnt out of bedside :( help

    You say you are burned-out with bedside nursing. I think you are burnt-out with your present work environment. Those are two different fruits. Ask yourself: do you enjoy working with patients and families, or is it you hate to be working your butt of...
  15. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    Yeah, a male at a boob center... I don't believe that would go over very well. We are just going to have to agree to disagree, getting off topic.
  16. The patient is in the process of falling, what do you do?:barf01:
  17. Dealing w/ rude RNs

    It has been my experience, the one's with the most knowledge and clinical skill, are the same one's who are most willing to assist not only student, but other nurses. So, don't worry about the rude RNs, they are worth a fart.
  18. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    "People code on med-surg. floors all the time. I would hate to see the Heathgrades report for your hospital. And, patients have called me worse than "*****", and it does not faze me one bit--Sister. And, you believe you know more than your instruct...
  19. How much orientation time for a new grad?

    At the beginning, and through the interviewing process, what made you decide that this job was a right fit for you. Many would try to convince you that 2 months is very generous and sufficient. I am one who would differ in that opinion. These patient...
  20. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    It is obvious you do not know, therefore appreciate what I am conveying.
  21. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    It makes perfect sense if you think. It comes down to monitoring your telemetry strips, vital signs, and those lab values. If you are not doing these, your patient is a risk of coding. The patient should not even get that far on a "Medical-surgical" ...
  22. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    LOL.. you made my point, exactly!
  23. Recently interviewed: I said: "No, no, no, no...."

    Thank you all for your comments thus far. I believe that everyone would agree that Nursing has become a lot more difficult than in the past. Many factors have come together to make it so. And, what is adding to the mess of things is most hospitals ar...
  24. OCD - test question

    I agree... © Good skin care. You will notice the other three listed answers are similar. Answer © is way different; therefore, the answer. Violia!
  25. I resigned today...

    Me too!
