Hi all- I was curious if anyone out there did this program and can provide any insight or if they know someone who did. Thanks!

The death poops

Lockportrn I am hugging you from orlando. I will keep your son and his friends in my thoughts. Orlando Strong. Orlando United.

Ckd causes a strain on the heart so many of these pt have chronically elevated trops. My docs look at their baseline and as long as it is not an increase they aren't concerned. It's not an acute change and an expected part of the patho so usually not...

Thank you. I'm actually going to Savannah later today with my bestie as a mini vaca.

Thank you. That's where I work. It helps to know that the ED community has been supporting us.

Work in a busy level 1 and we never page them either

Hi all My hubby and I are considering a move to Savannah. I currently work in a level 1 in florida and am curious what people can tell me about the level 1 in Savannah. Pay, personal experiences, culture etc. TIA!

We loved the city and we like to experience new places. We could see ourselves living there and being happy :)

Thanks for the info!!! I will have my TNCC and experience in the trauma room here before we move and I'm studying for CEN too so hopefully they would like me :)

Thanks for the info! Super helpful! Coming from florida, we are known for low pay so I would *guess* it would be comparable since florida pay is so crappy lol. At memorial how was the trauma room? Are there only specific nurses that work it or can e...

Every hospital I have worked at has one bucket of pto. It's your vaca, sick time, flex time etc.

Worked at both. Looooooove ormc so much more.

Old navy for mine too. Cheap and lightweight.

I work in ER 1. It's a level 1. In 6 mos I have only not taken lunch 2 times. We all cover for each other. It's the best place and teamwork I ever worked.

She gave you constructive criticism outside the patients room. Don't see the problem....

This!!!!!

Floor nursing was too rote, too routine for me. I learned I am not a detail oriented person. I love the er. Stabilize them and ship them upstairs or treat and street. When I give report to floor nurses that's get cranky that I don't have every IV gau...

I worked as a floor nurse for 2 years. A couple of things I had to adjust to (which wasn't too hard since it's why I wanted er in the first place) Autonomy to make decisions and do interventions. This rocks. No more " I need to get an order for the l...

I'm trying it out soon. Will let you all know how it goes if anyone is interested.

Awesome spring chick!! Good to know!

I figure for weight loss and stress management, it should be good!

Workplace violence is unacceptable. Period.

So far in my little experience in the ER: Everyone who is pissed off that they can't eat. And the people who come to the ER but refuse everything or complain that they would be more comfortable at home. Then why are you here???

Pen light, stethoscope, trauma shears. Pen. One thing I love about ER compared to impatient is I don't need to stock my pockets with a ton of stuff. There's always a stock cart nearby and I really only need those basics listed above. I keep my penli...
