   JSlovex2 replied to SunshineSmile's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   All the new grads that can't find a job... 40,000 paid to someone who never worked. There's your job.

2. Discrimination & Whistle blowing - Would you hire this nurse again?

   JSlovex2 replied to SunshineSmile's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   If religious people can be exempt from working certain days, does this mean people who aren't religious can be exempt too? What defines a religion anyway? Maybe it's my religion not to miss my...

3. No luck with a new grad job- should I go back to school? Any nurse managers around?

   JSlovex2 replied to BA_anthropology's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

   I disagree with the poster who says RNs who get a BSN aren't new grads. According to many hospitals (stated on their websites) any RN with less than 6 months professional experience is eligible for...

4. STILL NO JOB

   JSlovex2 replied to Bigmaine33's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

   @Sky You have to be aggressive during your training. It's just like when you're a nursing student - if you'll follow along and watch - that is exactly what the nurse will let you do. When I was going...

5. RN with BSN and feeling stupid

   JSlovex2 replied to trueblue2000's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

   It will come in handy at some point. Don't worry. As some have already mentioned, a lot of places prefer a BSN now, and a lot of people with less than a BSN are going back to school because they feel...

6. initial license question

   JSlovex2 replied to JSlovex2's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Actually, people can and DO wake up one day and decide they don't want to do drugs anymore! That's usually when they seek treatment...which is why it should be irrelevant to what's happening today. I...

7. initial license question

   JSlovex2 replied to JSlovex2's topic in Nurses Recovery

   My goodness....I feel bad for you. I guess I never even thought of this or payed attention to what kind of questions were asked since it didn't pertain to me, but if a questions asks, "Have you been...

8. initial license question

   JSlovex2 replied to JSlovex2's topic in Nurses Recovery

   How long is it until you are eligible for employment? And how long until you're finished with the program? Why were you denied licensure as a pharmacy tech? Did they ask questions about mental health...

9. initial license question

   JSlovex2 replied to JSlovex2's topic in Nurses Recovery

   Didn't you say in another post that you only disclosed your mental health dx because you interpreted the question wrong? And it actually only meant if your dx was an impairment to your current ability...

10. Frustrated

    JSlovex2 replied to wish_me_luck's topic in Nurses Recovery

    So, technically...if someone has a history of depression then they would have to report to the board when applying for licensure of a mental health history? That seems absurd! I saw another nurse post...

11. initial license question

    JSlovex2 replied to JSlovex2's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Well, the DUI thing makes sense because most all employers want to know your criminal history and it's public information so it will show up on your background check. Asking if you've ever been...

    JSlovex2 posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Hi all, I have a question for anyone who knows the answer. I have a good friend who is about to apply for initial licensure in the state of Tennessee and take their test. I can't answer the question...

    i agree w you that CNAs should understad why it's important to be accurate, and YES, i do think some people are on autopilot. i felt like i flew right through my BSN program which was "accelerated"...

14. Fictional vital sign charting

    JSlovex2 replied to Rabid Response's topic in General Nursing

    another issue. not only are CNAs not told this during training, but so many nurses would rather die than to let them know that their job actually IS

15. Fictional vital sign charting

    JSlovex2 replied to Rabid Response's topic in General Nursing

    my comment was in response to someone who mentioned that CNAs should get more education. hence, the comment that "along with more education comes more pay." if i had said "if CNAs were paid more to do...
