    So Frustrated I Could Cry..

    No worries OCRN63. We can agree to disagree. I would keep searching myself; however after all possibilities have been exhausted, I will call off. I have resolved a long time ago that I have to create...
  5. Most scenario questions for interviews are "what would you do" or "how have you handled" questions; they are more to elicit whether one can handle the "challenges" if nursing such as nursing practice...

    New grad RN in LTC/rehab, feeling conflicted

    This. You have a great team in place; Learn to brush up on assessments; that will be key; also, as an RN, we are expected to be leaders due to our scope in practice; however being a good leader is...

    The debate... A saga

    THIS. At least the second position is a guaranteed position-if you get it. Sounds like either way, you have a system in place and have honed the best adage in nursing-always have a side specialty!...

    Psych brought up the "D" word today

    You can most certainly file for both. You have worked hard; getting SSDI is not "living off taxpayers" IMHO; I have always felt if I am paying into a system, should anything happen to me, I am...

    Robin Williams RIP: Coping Mechanism?

    Great article. Most of us can relate to living behind a mask or a wall; there are plenty of us who struggle and play roles to cope; no matter what income, notoriety, culture or race; we can ALLL...

    Failed with 75 questions

    Remember, the NCLEX is based on four major principles: understanding the four concepts of becoming a competent, entry-level nurse: 1. Safe, effective care; 2.Health promotion; 3.Physiological...
  19. Look on LinkedIn for such individuals; Allnurses is virtually a anonymous website; there's no way to verify one's credentials. You may be able to get a more accurate response to your questions on...

    Nurses, do you exercise?

    I've been a yogi for about 10 years now; I do change up positions and forms to give me a variety. I started yoga when I was in PN school to help with my test anxiety...it really works on any type of...

    Of Nursing, Nudity and Public Perception

    Ah...but it's so much better to let them dig a deeper hole though... Trust me...my face during the OP's posts
