    Pay discrepancies? Security makes more then ER tech?

    Dazglue replied to mamaxmaria's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe the "security" there may actually be contracted through another company, may actually be police officers, or have been there longer. However, those are 2 different jobs and pay can't be...

    What was wrong with my patient??

    Dazglue posted a topic in General Nursing

    Seriously! We were at a lost at work last night. Pt is A&O X 4. But keep asking where her baby is, she needs a pamper to change baby, and keep pointing and talking to people that's not there....

    Dazglue replied to Florence NightinFAIL's topic in General Nursing

    I try to keep some sanitizer near the pt if possible especially if they use the urinal. I find that most people often ask for it. Or I give them a hot towel. Once I really started to freak out when...

    Failed pre-employment drug screen

    Dazglue replied to OlderRNinGA's topic in General Nursing

    Just the fact that I know I can be pulled anytime for a random drug test is enough from keeping me from using other people's narcs! But even though a lot of people do swap, you shouldn't b/c you never...

    Working third-shift while attending school for nursing?

    Dazglue replied to heidster's topic in General Students

    Well it depends on the person. Some people could do it, some couldn't. But in our program we were not allowed to work the night before a clinical, class, or exam (as in 7p-7a, 11p-7a). And we signed a...

    What was wrong with my patient??

    Dazglue replied to Dazglue's topic in General Nursing

    She's had an AKA, well over 400 lbs. Not cooperating with therapy. We were thinking possible tumor as well. (or an academy award) She doesn't have TOO much of a significant history. I just didn't want...

    "No Complaints Voiced"??

    Dazglue replied to Hooch's topic in General Nursing

    I get what it means. However for an A&Ox4 person I use "No needs voiced. No complaints of any pain/discomfort at this time"and the reason why I know this is b/c I ask. If they are confused I'll...

    Do you prefer 8 or 12 hours shifts?

    Dazglue replied to Studentnurse143's topic in General Nursing

    From the background you gave I think the Mon-Fri job would be best. However, is this going to be a job you'll like? Going to a job that you hate everyday will be worse than the stress you have from...

    Do nurses get holidays off?

    Dazglue replied to Jmiami's topic in General Nursing

    Usually, I'm all for working holidays if someone wants to be off with their kids. Just know you'll be the first I'll ask to swap shifts when I want some days off in the summer! Lol. But that doesn't...

    Dazglue replied to Rugford5LPN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I'm not sure what program you use at your facility but at my job you can always delete but it'll still "show up" It'll just have a red line going through it and to the side in parenthesis it'll say...

    Dazglue replied to Do-over's topic in General Nursing
