    I am an RN-MSN for about 9years. Pediatrics/PICU. I also do Nursery and NICU stepdown. I currently live in Long Island NY but my husband and I are thinking of relocating to Austin. Which hospitals should I look into? I also plan to do a travel assign...
  2. New Grad interviewing at Nyack Hospital

  4. Nursing Students COVID-19

    Don't you have any assignments to do or books to read? One of the good qualities of Nursing...you cannot be judgmental but here you are throwing judgments without knowing someone. Read to understand; then analyze to understand what someone is trying ...
  5. Nursing Students COVID-19

    You obviously have no idea what you are talking about. Shouldn't let the pandemic stifle me from teaching? Really? Do you honestly think Nurses had the time to teach in that situation? Listen, what you are seeing on TV was just a glimpse of what is a...
  6. Nursing Students COVID-19

    @JoC12345 I am in the HEART of the pandemic and it is a bad idea. It is very easy to say you rather have someone there with little experience to be there with a family member. First, the Hospital will not allow the student in the room without the Nur...

  8. New York Presbyterian Queens

    Is your friend Trump? LOL..to be blunt it is brutal. Personally I am mentally and physically exhausted. No one can be prepared for this. It was a bit on the quiet side on last week but Friday night it kind of ticked up at our ER which meant admission...

  11. Bronxcares?

    I work at Bronxcare but I do not live there. Which part of the Bronx? Places like Riverdale, Throgsneck, Parkchester are decent. The surrounding area in close proximity to the hospital is rough neighborhood. It is quiet now due to the parks and every...
  12. RN MOVING FROM NY TO TORONTO

    I always love Canada. I have ton of friends in the Toronto area. The lower pay does not bother me; personally I think the quality of life is better, my opinion. I tried to get my license but it was taking very long so I gave up. Currently I am a Pedi...
  13. Nursing Students COVID-19

    I am an RN in NYC currently working with Covid 19 patients. Honestly, this is brutal. There is no other way to describe it. It takes a toll on you physically and mentally. We have new graduate nurses with about 3 months on the unit and most cannot ha...
  14. Med errors being investigated

    I am not sure but I know I would fight not only to keep my license but to make sure nothing bad goes against me. Personally I would go to the Supervisor/Director...how many Nurses did you have to give meds to as oppose to what is legally allowed. Kee...
  15. Med errors being investigated

    10 Med Errors in 4hrs? I can understand one or two but wow...You said you had computer problems did you contact the supervisor once you realize the computer was not functioning well? If you did let the supervisor know, you can include that in your em...
  16. LPN or RN

    Totally agree with Neo. Take the ADN route it will take 2yrs, plus once you pass the boards and get a job you will be paid as an RN. You can always do the BSN online. I did my ADN, passed boards 6 weeks after graduating. Even before I passed the boar...
