I'm moving to Boston soon and am wondering if anybody might have some suggestions for good oncology units in the area. I'm looking for a unit with a good nurse manager, a great staff and fun atmosphere... Aka the ideal unit! They do exist, I'm working on one now! But I also do know that they can be pretty hard to find. My experience is primarily in hematology, but I'm open to other oncology areas if there is a great unit out there!! I would appreciate any suggestions or to hear experiences people may have had. Thanks in advance!

Ya it was for the new grad program. i interviewed on the oncology unit!

Hi all, I am graduating this May, and I have just received word that I will have an interview at Duke University Hospital next week. I was wondering if anyone had any interview tips for me? This is my very first interview (besides a life guarding job) so I need all the help I can get! Thanks so much to everyone who replies!

I have ineffective breathing pattern and acute confusion (great minds think alike). For our concept map we need several diagnoses so I am just trying to come up with some other diagnoses. Thanks :)

Hi, I'm new to all nurses so i'm not exactly sure how to start a new thread to ask my question.. I have an 80 yo female patient. She was admitted for hypoglycemia, they also diagnosed her with a UTI. Her blood glucose on arrival was 20. She was disoriented x3. had visual hallucinations, she has COPD--during morning meds she look at the inhaler like she had never seen it before in her life. unable to remember how many children she had, waiting for her son to come (he had already been to visit earlier in the afternoon) her urine bacteria level was >100,000 ml/col would this work as the nursing diagnosis? i've never done secondary to in my diagnosis before so i'm not quite sure how they work Acute confusion r/t delirium secondary to UTI infection and hypoglycemia Thanks to whoever responds to this, I appreciate what help you can provide me with!
