  1. Doctors cannot do a nurses job

    I don't think anyone goes to nursing school for that reason either. Doesn't mean it is something a nurse or physician isn't willing to do. So often on this site I hear nurses complaining about certain...
  2. NCSBN Nursing Ad

    I'm not sure I understand what the big complaint is about, aside from the fact there's no dudes in the
  3. Nice. :yawn:I thought saying things that make other members feel unwelcome were frowned upon. Not very open-minded or inclusive of
  4. A few thoughts. YMMV. No one can predict exactly what will or will not happen with regards to the economy. However, there is a fact that we have an aging population, overall and even if people work...
  5. Rode up on first accident outside of hospital....

    It is a personal decision (and perhaps a legal one depending on the jurisdiction) whether to stop or not if you are not on duty. Where I live, even off-duty EMS has no legal obligation to stop....
  6. Confused about which job offer to accept. Advice please

    I'll beat the dead horse. No way I would world less than half-time for less money per hour to boot! That's not even getting into benefits. If the opportunity for PRN work to fit your schedule pops up...
  7. 18 y/o RN!

    All you young grads, one piece of advice. I commend you on taking charge and getting everything squared away so young. You now have a tremendous opportunity in front of you. Be aware that you are...
  8. I don't think anyone can tell you for certain what will happen. There are things that can back up anyone's opinion as to what will happen. I do however, think that in the next few years to a decade,...
  9. Are these holidays off the norm?

    Not necessarily for nursing, but in general, eight days is the norm. My last employer had the same as you describe, with the exception of 2 floaters rather than 1 floater and one birthday, which is a...
  10. There was only one conclusion. I will admit I took your previous post of "I won't even get into what I think of million dollar salaries," to mean that you don't believe professional athletes to be...
  11. So who decides what the criteria are for someone who SHOULD be
  12. I was not just being facetious. In each and every case I would want the people that are most capable, period. So not only do you think some brilliant person is not as good a choice to case for someone...
  13. can't help my emotional feelings

    BTW, OP, your post regarding the hug made me much more cautious towards whom I go out giving hugs
  14. In each of those cases, I would want the person who was most capable, regardless of their motivation. Since we are just making up hypotheticals, if you were a sports fan, would you want your favorite...
  15. And you'll also get people who suck just as badly at bedside as they do with pen and paper, and those whose bedside skills are every bit s good as their 4.0. What does all this prove? Not a darn thing...
  16. Withdraw then audit?

    Ditto the above two. From a strictly practical point of view, I have rarely seen a student stick through with auditing a class. I believe they start out with the best of intentions, but since they are...
  17. starting salary and raises.

    I think you ought to do the assignment as assigned. Perhaps the instructors are not dumb and realize not everyone knows a nurse and this would be a good opportunity to interact with one, rather than...
  18. Nursing and dental hygienist

    I'd tell you to pick one and go with that, because it will take longer to finish up both doing them together, if it is even possible. You are young and if you think you still want to do the other, you...
  19. can't help my emotional feelings

    Nah. Well, I am only concerned about one of her personalities' ability to maintain patient safety.
  20. A&P 1 vs. A&P 2

    Yeah, basically it is micro/macro, but there are other diffrences. I would say 1 is more anatomy and 2 is more physiology, but again there are both in each. Where I took them you could not take 2...
  21. Better watch saying things like that around
  22. done with kaplan's question trainer . did bad :(

    I have not taken the NCLEX, but I have taken the NREMT-B test, which is a CAT as well. I felt like I really knew my material (got the highest grade in the class as well), but was not getting great...
  23. Really, it is a "fact" that you need to invest your heart and soul to be a good nurse? So all the nurses, even on this very forum, are ****** nurses because it is not what defines them, but rather a...
  24. Not all cheese is created equal, with regards to nutrient
  25. How does your unit handle daylight savings time?

    Unless you are an exempt employee, the employer is required to pay you for every hour worked, whether or not there are two of the same hour due to daylight savings. I am curious, for those who say...
