  1. Covid travel contract - recruiter problems

    guest449786 replied to alwaysnforever's topic in Disaster Preparation

    During the best of times recruiters are difficult to interact with. Your experience has been standard operating procedure for me. There are a ton of agencies out there and my advice is to not put all...

  2. COVID-19 and extinction of human species

    guest449786 replied to DannyBoy8's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Very interesting thoughts and opinions. You want humanity to be wiped out because of past events? Your fatalistic fantasy is rather morbid and hopeless. Nurses have one of the highest rates of...

  3. To be a coward, or to be a fool?

    guest449786 replied to MsJenn_The_RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    When was the last pandemic? I couldn't disagree with you more. It's like asking a police officer to work in a high crime area without their gun, radio, ballistics vest, ASP, OC spray, or

  4. I took a travel assignment to help out, but what happens after?

    guest449786 replied to Nickc58's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It's not going to end in May. But, if they don't "need" you in NYC, come May, they will cancel your contract. You'll have plenty of opportunities all over the country and it'll pick back up in the...

  5. To be a coward, or to be a fool?

    guest449786 replied to MsJenn_The_RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Everyone has said it better than I could. But, I served in the military and they 100% took better care of you and provided a much higher level of protection and ensured everyone had proper equipment...

  6. Nursing Dose

    guest449786 posted a topic in Patient Medications

    On orientation, at a previous facility, I was told about nursing doses. Normally it involves giving extra narcotic to a person in severe pain. This occurred in a emergent setting where patients would...

  7. RN being bullied by LVN

    guest449786 replied to BDBSNRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    We are all equals, but on paper, in most states, if not all, RNs are not permitted to take clinical direction from LPNs. It's not about being better or having someone subordinate to you. These rules...

  8. HELP: How Extensive Are Hiring Background Checks?

    guest449786 replied to khaleesikitten's topic in General Students

    They do and can receive their information from the social security administration, not the IRS. If you apply for certain government jobs they will do a social security check. I have personally worked...

  9. HELP: How Extensive Are Hiring Background Checks?

    guest449786 replied to khaleesikitten's topic in General Students

    If you paid taxes on your income from being a camgirl then it is possible for an employer or anyone willing to pay the fee to find out about your past work history. Normally credit agencies will have...

  10. Nursing Dose

    guest449786 replied to guest449786's topic in Patient Medications

    I am aware of what is legal, illegal, and what falls within the scope of practice for RNs in the state that I reside and practice in. I did not say that I agree, advocate, or engage in this behavior....

  11. Convicted of murder as a teen and now a nurse

    guest449786 replied to TheGooch's topic in General Nursing

    The BON, a government entity, is made of imperfect people who should not always have the final say on nursing practice and don't always have patients' best interest in mind. After all, it was another...

  12. Nursing Dose

    guest449786 replied to guest449786's topic in Patient Medications

    This subject may be the equivalent of asking a police officer if they carry a throw-down. It's definitely not something I'm advocating for or believe is the right thing by the patient. It was brought...

  13. Convicted of murder as a teen and now a nurse

    guest449786 replied to TheGooch's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think most nurses have that difficult of time with the idea or concept of death. For me, personally, it's the idea of murder that invokes rage, etc. Death is natural and being murdered by...

  14. Convicted of murder as a teen and now a nurse

    guest449786 replied to TheGooch's topic in General Nursing

    Just think about this, don't comment, so it's okay to be a bigot when it comes to Christians and their beliefs and then be open-minded and non-judgmental when it comes to a convicted murderer that is...

  15. Convicted of murder as a teen and now a nurse

    guest449786 replied to TheGooch's topic in General Nursing

    If it was justified self-defense then the individual would not have been convicted. I don't know how an individual is still permitted to be a nurse after a murder conviction, but they should not be....

  16. Why can't i get a job???? US RN

    guest449786 replied to MKIVSupraRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Not sure where you live, but there are several rural hospitals in Pennsylvania that hire a lot of new graduates. I was even offered a ED position in one of them right out of school, which I ended up...

  17. Minimum Wage + LVN Wage

    guest449786 replied to g2255lw's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    When you're deciding what field to pursue keep in mind that a lot of jobs will be greatly reduced or eliminated all together. Some low level nursing tasks are already being replaced with automation....

  18. "Public" Perceptions Changing?

    guest449786 posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    There's usually some truth in humor and wondering if this any indication that the public perception of nurses are changing. It's definitely not a positive portal of nurses and hopefully not a future...

  19. What's to complain about?

    guest449786 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Another I regret my decision to go into nursing thread. It's grown on me and I am very satisfied by what I do. However, it does not provide enough income for me to take care of my family. Not to even...

  20. Unsupportive spouse?

    guest449786 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    OrganizedChaos, why do you believe your personal experience is relevant to the OP when it comes to her personal relationship with her husband? It's not, and you are stereotyping men unfairly due to...

  21. Unsupportive spouse?

    guest449786 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I don't doubt that you do. Women, rightfully, won't accept misogyny in the workplace or on AN and men should not accept misandry as condition of being in the field or on AN either.

  22. Unsupportive spouse?

    guest449786 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I'm sorry about your experience and no I will never be able to understand what you went through. You and I agree that no one should be treated like garbage as well. I'm not saying you wouldn't say in...

  23. Unsupportive spouse?

    guest449786 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Some sweeping generalizations on this thread, and yes men who act like that are boys, but not all men are boys. It is revealing to see what some female nurses will say about men when it's anonymous...

  24. Anyone care to share what made you fall in love with Nursing career?

    guest449786 replied to Fall15NYU's topic in General Students

    3 12s and 4 days off a week. I'm still not in love, but it's what got me interested in being a nurse in the first

  25. Unsupportive spouse?

    guest449786 replied to spierre's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    People do change after you marry them, and for some it's for the better and for others for the worse. In order to be in a relationship with someone you must change and that involves compromise and...
