  2. Called in to work as a new grad?

    SweetPEI replied to squatmunkie_RN's topic in General Nursing

    right, but never said anything about giving an explanation. my guess is that every facility is different. in my facility, you are expected to call back. it could be because we are a close knit unit...

  3. I want to keep nursing but feel so stressed.

    SweetPEI replied to Lilnurse71's topic in General Nursing

    I believe when I said "forgetting to do things" it was referring directly to when you said you forgot to pick up your child from daycare 3

  10. I just need to talk about it.

    SweetPEI replied to anonymous1919's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Whether or not the job market is bad or good, the pay that an employer has for a job is the pay they have for the job. If they decide to change the pay because of their economic status it will still...

  11. I just need to talk about it.

    SweetPEI replied to anonymous1919's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I was taught that too, but those days are long gone. It is appropriate to bring up money. At the end of the day when the employer does accept you for the job, the power is switched to you and it is up...

    SweetPEI replied to Lilnurse71's topic in General Nursing

    SweetPEI replied to squatmunkie_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree: don't go in. Although you are brand new, you are licensed and anything that happens under your license is fair game. Perhaps they saw your name on the staff sheet and called you... I...

    SweetPEI replied to anonymous1919's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Stop worrying because you will only stress yourself out. Money talk is not the responsibility of the interviewer. It is your responsibility to ask that question. Ok, so it didn't come up don't worry....

    SweetPEI replied to Lilnurse71's topic in General Nursing

    Also, to me it seems that your husband is one of your stressors. You sound like you love nursing. You just haven't found your niche. Your husbands demand are justifiable, but you have to let him know...

  18. Bedside Reporting

    SweetPEI replied to OttawaRPN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not yet a nurse (soon)... but I figured I can give my two cents... My facility implemented bedside reporting as well and at first we hated it. It just wasn't the thing to do on a pscyh unit. We...
