  1. Job Market

    jeyre1847 posted a topic in Colorado Nursing

    I saw a couple similar threads about LPN jobs, but I wanted to ask for myself. I will be a new grad soon and I'm thinking of relocating. In my area, we have a few jobs (better than some places!) but...

  2. My lie to patient's mom

    jeyre1847 replied to hiddencatRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'd say if you got the IV in on the first time while under pressure about being an expert on IVs, then you're pretty darn good. Stop questioning yourself about exaggerating your skills and be proud of...

  3. Random sentences in textbooks

    jeyre1847 replied to sairin8's topic in Nursing Humor

    I personally liked the wonderful advice, "Don't let your stethoscope become a STAPH-oscope!" That sentence makes me want to add "HAR HAR HAR" to the end of

  4. VQ mismatch?

    jeyre1847 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm on a peds floor for preceptorship. This week, we had an 8 month old girl with RSV getting nebulizer treatments. She would always drop to like 82% right after the treatments, even after she had...

  5. VQ mismatch?

    jeyre1847 replied to jeyre1847's topic in General Nursing

    This didn't happen as much when she was on continuous oxygen, it started after she was on room air. This explains how her lungs "liked" the higher FiO2 like you said. Also, it was an albuterol...

  6. Things you'd LOVE to be able to tell patients, and get away with it.

    jeyre1847 replied to AngelfireRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm a student still, but I've wanted to say a few things, too: -I'm not interested in your member. -I'm not interested in your boyfriend's/husband's member. -Yes, you do need to lose weight. You're...

  9. Moving to MKE, how's the market?

    jeyre1847 replied to BeckiRN's topic in General Nursing

    It's good to hear some optimistic stories! Congrats to your friend! What's the general feeling about new grads in Milwaukee? I'm graduating in May, so I'm wondering if anybody's hiring new grads...

  10. Jobs for New BSN Graduates in Kansas City

    jeyre1847 replied to cmknova's topic in General Nursing

    I know the thread says that jobs are available, but I wanted to revive this thread and see if this was still true, since this is a kind of old thread. I'm wondering what the job market for new grads...

  12. Student working at a camp

    jeyre1847 replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Camp

    -Where will you be sleeping (ie in your own cabin, sharing a room, in the infirmary, etc)? -Who's "on" at nights? At my camp the students slept in the infirmary and in the event of an emergency, we...

  13. Are there any camps that hire student nurses?

    jeyre1847 replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Camp

    Camp Agawak. I think I applied at camp Che-Na-Wah, too, but when they called me, I had already taken the job at

  14. Are there any camps that hire student nurses?

    jeyre1847 replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Camp

    I worked at a camp last summer as a student, and I got the job through nurses.campstaff.com. It's free to join and I got a bunch of calls after I registered. I just specifically mentioned that I was a...

  15. Some crazy/funny things that patients did.

    jeyre1847 replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    One day, I was doing a neuro check with a flashlight. "Oh, are you going to do surgery today?" "No, sir, why do you ask?" "Then what's the screwdriver for?" Apparently my patient thought my flashlight...

  16. Lovenox

    jeyre1847 posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    My teacher told me today in clinical that Lovenox is supposed to be administered over 1 minute. I administered it slowly, with the air bubble, then counted to 10 before I pulled the needle out. I...

  17. Lovenox

    jeyre1847 replied to jeyre1847's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I did just nod and say, "Okay", because I don't want to argue with the teacher. I just thought it sounded a little off to administer it soooo slowly, so I wanted to check if anyone else had heard of...

    jeyre1847 replied to jeyre1847's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thanks for the advice everyone! I just wanted some opinions from people who know more about grad school and nursing. I appreciate the

  19. Post BSN decision

    jeyre1847 posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I'm currently a BSN student and am planning on graduating in May (hooray!). I've always had a plan for after I graduate. My original plan was to get a job first, hopefully in pediatrics, OB or a...

  20. Should I tell my nursing school about my disorder?

    jeyre1847 replied to Harmony4All's topic in General Students

    My school doesn't require a physical, but we have to sign something saying we can lift 20 pounds, etc. Basically, I think it's that we can perform the requirements with "reasonable accomodations"...

  21. Medical Missions Trips?

    jeyre1847 replied to newflgrad's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't read this whole thread, so I'm sorry if this has already been covered. I'm a senior nursing student and graduate in May. I'm looking at mission programs, but I'm not sure where yet. Also,...
