  1. Fired: Now what?

    Seas replied to patty377's topic in Nursing Career

    So you didn't do ANYTHING at all to deserve any of this? Why don't you get a lawyer and sue

  2. Is magnet status hospitals shutting out all LVNs

    Seas replied to ladymaam's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    You shouldn't take this personally and make a drama out of it. It is not hate/like/better/worse thing. It has to do with scope of practice and standards. A lot of hospitals are not hiring LPN's...

  3. How do you think I'm doing for a Pre-Nursing student???

    Seas replied to keithm101's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Lets be realistic. It doesn't look possible from here. While there are bunch of others with the highest GPA's competing for nursing school spots...

  4. critique please

    Seas replied to fromtheseaRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Put experience before schools for sure. For BSN, put "anticipated graduation date" instead of just the date.We aren't in December 2013 yet. And after reading the post above mine, I would discourage...

  5. How to post a quote in the beginning of your cover letter?

    Seas replied to lullaby's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I have a quote on my resume, but not on the cover letter. I don't think it would be appropriate in the cover

  6. LPNs? What do they do? Where can they work? Difference between LPN vs RN?

    Seas replied to TheCommuter's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Thanks for the post. I really really don't mean to start a RN vs LPN thread. Please don't get offended. But the bolded area, seriously, what does this mean? Has anybody ever heard of this? Which...

  7. Hemo vs CCU

    Seas replied to Carl-RN's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Huh? Is that a part of your resume or something? I really didn't understand anything. It may make sense if you can make complete sentences. Good

  8. I had a terrible day at school today... Accused and feel awful.

    Seas replied to jval's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    That's plain ridiculous that the instructor and the facility already set their minds way before about dropping certain amount of people; no matter what. I would understand if a student does something...

  9. RN as a LPN

    Seas replied to emilysmom,RN's topic in General Nursing

    Why would you want to work under the title of LPN while you are already a RN? Wait until they open up a RN position, or find a RN job I think. Working as a LPN if you are RN can have bad consequences,...

  10. Do new grad nurses need resumes?

    Seas replied to lsid16's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I thought having a resume was already a basal part of the application. It is NOT a PLUS that will get you ahead of others. It is the

  11. ICU yuck

    Seas replied to ginaw623's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It just sounds like you don't know what nursing is all about. A lot of people want to be pediatrics nurse, but they don't know or understand that these will be sick kids with all the body fluids you...

  12. Giving two week notice...

    Seas replied to Jess_Missouri_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Oh, there is no point in arguing professionalism with you. Our perspectives of it is wholly different. And for the bold part, of course one may actively look for another job while not telling the...

  13. Giving two week notice...

    Seas replied to Jess_Missouri_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    To me, it is like saying to your manager" Hello, I will be leaving in 2 weeks, and I am going on vacation now. Hope you get it all done straight while I am gone. I am actually done working/quitting...

  14. RN Format and got 205 questions - What's Up with That?

    Seas replied to judys2lips's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That's a myth. Everybody gets as many questions as the computer needs to determine

  15. Have you ever cried when a Pt died

    Seas replied to Topaz7's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    No, I haven't. I just get tearful if when the family cries after the patient's death. I guess my weak point is when someone cries in front of me. Unless the dying patient cried right before death, I...

  16. I'm done with nursing

    Seas replied to Blue4me2's topic in General Nursing

    Your work conditions doesn't sound normal. And if a work is giving you this much emotional problems, be glad to resign, I would too. However, not every workplace is bad. Take a break and get yourself...

  17. Nursing listed as 4th on a list of fun jobs.

    Seas replied to DizzyLizzyNurse's topic in General Nursing

    I don't totally disagree with the article. It is not boring for sure and pretty fun

  18. How far do you travel to get to work?

    Seas replied to born2circulateRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I was expecting such a question. There is a hill, and I don't feel like walking before a 12 hr shift on my feet. I don't think I could handle walking after an exhausting shift either. I prefer to...

  19. How far do you travel to get to work?

    Seas replied to born2circulateRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I drive less than a mile, so 1-2 minute of drive for me. I think 45 mins shouldn't be a big deal in this case if new grads jobs are hard to come by and you are given the chance to work as a

  20. RN Who Wants To Become A Paramedic???

    Seas replied to All4NursingRN's topic in Nursing Career

    It's not odd to me. I am a RN who would love to be an OB tech. For my hospital, I am "overqualified". Many times I wished I was a PCA, so I could apply for

  21. Trying to change specialty, criticize my resume please

    Seas posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    i am a 1 year experienced telemetry nurse who is trying to internally transfer to ob. i just did a lot of changes on my resume after some resume tips and critiques on other people's resumes that...

    Seas replied to Seas's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Oh I see now. Thank you! I will change that part!

  23. Trying to change specialty, criticize my resume please

    Seas replied to Seas's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Maybe. I was called "team leader" when I leaded some other students in clinicals. So I thought I'd use that word on the resume. But I am planning to remove the student nurse experience section all...

  24. Trying to change specialty, criticize my resume please

    Seas replied to Seas's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Right, I know! It is very weak on OB skills unless they count wound care and teaching part. I am trying to figure out what OB related classes/certificates and where I could get them. I sure will work...

  25. How did you *know* your specialty and when?

    Seas replied to misscherie's topic in General Nursing

    During nursing school. On my last semester, after I had already seen many specialties. I fell in love with the specialty when I had my clinicals
