  1. I want to quit 4 months in

    SionainnRN replied to Nonetheless's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I was agreeing with you. I thought it was odd she couldn't handle 11-7 but wants to work 7p-7a, makes no

  2. I want to quit 4 months in

    SionainnRN replied to Nonetheless's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Yeah that struck me as odd too. The OP has so much time off with only working 8 hours a day. It seems like they're just making excuses to

  3. Knitting during class: ok or not?

    SionainnRN replied to BusyBee91's topic in General Students

    Yep! The most creative I've ever gotten in the classroom was making paper triangle "footballs" or cootie catchers. But that was high

  5. Knitting during class: ok or not?

    SionainnRN replied to BusyBee91's topic in General Students

  7. Nursing Student Question

    SionainnRN replied to arp898's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Oh boy. First, you are not being bullied. Second, stop trying to get others to do your homework for you. Third, what has your research shown in regards to educating pts? We are more than happy to help...

    SionainnRN replied to motherof3sons's topic in General Nursing

  9. I want to quit 4 months in

    SionainnRN replied to Nonetheless's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm sorry you're having such a rough time, however the odds of you finding a day position are pretty slim. If you want to work in a hospital you generally have to work nights until a day spot opens,...

  10. Knitting during class: ok or not?

    SionainnRN replied to BusyBee91's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry but how in the world did someone doodling during a lecture distract you to the point that you went to the teacher about it?? That's like complaining that a student was writing notes! And yet...

  11. Outcomes Management

    SionainnRN replied to warriornation's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Well you're about the third or fourth student to post this question. I don't know why your teacher is having us do your homework rather than have you research it

  12. Nursing mission statement

    SionainnRN replied to Cjhays's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Except you're flat out asking us to do your homework for you. You're not giving us your mission statement and asking for help with it you basically want it handed to you. That's not how nursing school...

  14. Knitting during class: ok or not?

    SionainnRN replied to BusyBee91's topic in General Students

    It's not about what people would think of her, it's about purposefully being a distraction in class. If the OP must do something with her hands to help her focus, there are way less distracting things...

    Which teams do you think are important? What has your research

  17. ICU pay differential?

    SionainnRN replied to Mr. Murse's topic in Critical Care

    No it is terrifying when only one or two people in the ICU have ACLS and know how to run a code. RTs don't run codes. And of course a new ICU nurse even with ACLS won't really know what's going on,...

    I personally find new grads delicious, especially with a tasty cocktail in

  19. should i disclose pending charge during interview?

    SionainnRN replied to movingforwardRN's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I was just trying to point out that you come across very hostile when talking about the victim. Many people don't realize how they sound to others and was just trying to give you s heads

    SionainnRN replied to ctfrazie's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Well a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. You have a job offer and that's fantastic. If you can afford not to work and are willing to risk not being employed, wait to hear about the other job....

  22. The "R" in SBAR......nope

    SionainnRN replied to GypsyNinja's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    A quick answer is: always know what you want when you call. If the pt is hypotensive and you've given the doc all the pertinent info the R is for what you want. Do you think they need some fluids, or...

  23. Newbies Who Want to Pay ZERO Dues Schedule-Wise

    SionainnRN replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    How in the world can you justify that someone with 3 years experience should make more than someone with 13 years

  24. should i disclose pending charge during interview?

    SionainnRN replied to movingforwardRN's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Yea I know it would make you look bad which is why I recommended you to watch what you say. Your wording on here is very off putting when you speak of the victim. A lot of people don't realize how...

  25. Knitting during class: ok or not?

    SionainnRN replied to BusyBee91's topic in General Students

    The clicking of the needles would drive me mad! This is very unprofessional and inappropriate. If you can't make it through the lecture with your hands still, doodle or take
