   Looked for some info here but didn't find much, but if you can point me to another thread please do. A funny meme on FB about the phrase "will continue to monitor" started some heated conversations...

4. From Acute to Primary?

   Jamuhh replied to Jamuhh's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   UF has both acute and primary tracks which is why I'm struggling. I'm a floor nurse now but I really like the hospital setting and the variety. On the other hand, I don't know if I'd be good in acute...

5. Advice for a new peds nurse? :)

6. Does Nemours hire new nursing grads internally?

   Jamuhh replied to drod8375's topic in Pediatric

8. From Acute to Primary?

   Jamuhh posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

   I DID do some searching in the forums before deciding to ask this but didn't find an answer. IF I chose an acute care track (in peds, but does it matter? :)), could I later decide to work in primary...

    Jamuhh replied to Jamuhh's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Good catch, and thanks for contributing! Interestingly, I read this a few weeks ago about shellfish/iodine. I think that needs to be studied more. Iodine

    I am starting a project at work to help improve reporting of near miss events. I am trying to gather real-life examples of near misses. If you look through the interwebz, near miss is defined as an...

14. Hesitant to try paeds-encouragement/advice needed!

    Jamuhh replied to regerterb's topic in Pediatric

    I guess I meant until you feel confident. The decimal thing should not be an issue for YOU if you are the one checking. If the physician writes an order and misplaces a decimal and you check the math...
