    CityofAngelsRN replied to trailrunningrn's topic in Correctional

    Your response to OP was so detailed- thank you providing so much information! When the jobs are posted, do they indicate if the position is am or pm? I know you said generally they start new hires on...

  2. Leaving the Bedside as a New Nurse: Is It a Good Idea?

    CityofAngelsRN replied to thehappynurse98's topic in General Nursing

    My one regret was not leaving bedside sooner. My mental health has suffered. I just recently left the bedside and am never looking back. My advice is take this new

  3. Need some serious advice and help regarding HR and possibly about to be fired

    CityofAngelsRN replied to in.despair's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I wouldn’t give them my records, especially since it doesn’t guarantee you keeping your job. If you quit, you can at least apply there again down the road when you’re in a better spot. Virtual...

  4. Atascadero State Hospital Physical Ability Test

    CityofAngelsRN replied to CityofAngelsRN's topic in Psychiatric

    Thank you so much for the reply! Apparently they don’t do them anymore. LOL, I was picturing myself running a mile and doing a million pushups so I was

  5. Atascadero State Hospital Physical Ability Test

    CityofAngelsRN posted a topic in Psychiatric

    So I just got hired at Atascadero State Hospital but the email I received states I "might" have to take a physical ability test? LOL, this is making me nervous. Does anyone know if this is true and if...

  6. Los Angeles Nurses, Please Keep an Eye Out for Nancy

    CityofAngelsRN posted a topic in Nursing News

  7. Hospital Staff Drops Newborn

    CityofAngelsRN posted a topic in Nursing News

    A new father was filming in the hospital delivery room after the birth of his twin girls and he catches the doctor dropping one of the girls on a table. I recently watched a video I found on Facebook...

  8. Department of corrections- Nevada

    CityofAngelsRN replied to haybaby7540's topic in Correctional

    Hi everyone! I know this thread is really old but I was just wondering if you could describe some of the tasks you guys do during the day as a correctional nurse in Nevada. I'm highly considering...

  9. Removed from Nurse Residency Program-Should I Try Psych?

    CityofAngelsRN replied to dbabz's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I graduated valedictorian yet had never drawn blood or started an IV. I didn't even know how to hang a piggyback lol. Thankfully my new grad program gave us 10 weeks with a preceptor so I was able to...

  10. Los Gatos ER Physician in the News

    CityofAngelsRN posted a topic in Nursing News

    Anyone have any thoughts on the ER doctor from Los Gatos who has been all over the news today? Apparently a college student came in complaining of an anxiety attack and according to the news, the...

  11. AZ New Grad RN

    CityofAngelsRN replied to EveeRN224's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Lol, for some stupid reason I thought the OP wrote that which changes a lot!! Haha, my apologies. Being a travel nurse would be a TERRIBLE idea, couldn't agree more. A new grad probably wouldn't...

  12. AZ New Grad RN

    CityofAngelsRN replied to EveeRN224's topic in First Year After Licensure

    What city are you in? Are you close to Phoenix? Can you relocate for a year? My advice is to join the Facebook group New Grad RNs Arizona, you can connect with so many other new grads in your state...

  13. Newish grad unable to get a job

    CityofAngelsRN replied to athesnia's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I was a new grad in 2014 in CA and I know it's different than it is today, but it was extremely hard to get a job as a new grad back then. I joined a Facebook group for new grads in my state which...

  14. The "Any Nursing School at This Point" Question?

  15. Nurses Side Hustles

    CityofAngelsRN replied to Evan Gross's topic in Nurse Entrepreneurs, Innovators

    I don't have any side hustles personally but flu clinics are a big one and many agencies are starting to hire now for a September start

  16. Too ugly to be a nurse..?!?

    CityofAngelsRN replied to RandomNurse2b1's topic in General Nursing

    Nope, you would be a perfect fit in Hollywood. I lived in Hollywood for 10 years and worked in a few hospitals in LA, trust me, like I said...you would fit right

  17. I was fired as a CNA

    CityofAngelsRN replied to Studentnurse2020's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    No, I don't think it will be hard for you to get a job. I think you'll be just fine. It seems kind of crazy that they fired you when this was the first disciplinary action. I really wouldn't stress...

  18. Failed four times Florida

    CityofAngelsRN replied to Sekayia's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It's been awhile since I've taken the NCLEX but I would suggest studying content just as much as you go over questions. Other than lab values, try not to memorize but actually comprehend what you're...

  19. I was fired as a CNA

    CityofAngelsRN replied to Studentnurse2020's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    When management asked you what time you took care of the patient, you stated that "you didn't remember and that you guessed a time." IMO, that is the biggest problem here and probably the only...

  20. falling asleep during nightshift

    CityofAngelsRN replied to nightlightnurseaide's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not usually this black or white on issues but I'm going to go ahead and say you're not taking your job seriously enough if you fall asleep on the clock. Maybe it's because I'm an RN and feel 100%...

  21. Too ugly to be a nurse..?!?

    CityofAngelsRN replied to RandomNurse2b1's topic in General Nursing

    I really hope you apply to the programs. Nurses are all different shapes and sizes and come from various backgrounds and cultures. We are a giant mixing pot and it sounds like you'll fit right in. If...

    CityofAngelsRN replied to blackmamba123's topic in General Nursing

    I used to work on a VIP floor in Los Angeles where patients had to pay over $800 a night to stay there. They had down comforters, Keurigs, satin sheets, a personal fridge, newspaper hand delivered...

  24. ED Nurse with Deteriorating Health

    CityofAngelsRN replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    I think Nurse Beth's suggestion of finding something that will allow you to work from home in the near future is very smart. Case management at your current hospital would be a good option to get that...

  25. Los Gatos ER Physician in the News

    CityofAngelsRN replied to CityofAngelsRN's topic in Nursing News

    It would have been nice for you to include the longer video. I just looked at the fathers Facebook page to see if he uploaded the original video and I think this is it. If you have something better...
