    How to ask questions...

    Soliloquy replied to morningland's topic in Travel

    Morningland, but if you knew then you wouldn't need a refresher. You'd just do it. The reality is that you're unsure or can't remember which isn't a BAD thing. I think sometimes nurses act like they...

    How to ask questions...

    Soliloquy replied to morningland's topic in Travel

    I would ask because the truth is if you DID "know your stuff" in regards to that procedure, you wouldn't have to ask. But that's okay. You can't be expected to know everything. So you ask. One day you...

    Soliloquy replied to nette1022's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Mhusen, my first thought was to report it until I read that the supervisor called her an *******. Who does that in a managerial position? That's the thing about the environment she's working in.the...

    Soliloquy replied to nette1022's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This sounds all well and good, and ideally it would work that way, but from what I have read the OP has tried to set those boundaries but they continue to dismiss them as the OP "being angry..." a...

    Hey zmansc, Thanks for the response. For the clinical portion, absolutely I'll go back to my home state as that's where my main home is located. I would like to try my hand at travel nursing for a few...

    Soliloquy replied to nette1022's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Do you and Ned know each other or work in the same specialty? You both have the same style of communicating. It's quite fascinating.

    Soliloquy replied to michlynn's topic in Travel

    Lol I wouldn't mind it if there wasn't so much charting todo for each patient. When you have to chart a full head to toe assessment in addition to write a plan of care note for each and every 4 hrs...

    Soliloquy replied to chineye's topic in General Nursing

    Well, to start, if you don't get your license it's forfeit and your manager usually tells you that up front. I don't work on the stroke unit, but Medstar Washington Hospital Center is a GREAT place...

    Prestige in Employment

    Soliloquy replied to InfantryVet2014's topic in General Nursing

    purchasing your own health insurance

    Soliloquy replied to Soliloquy's topic in Travel

    I think that's why I'm leaning towards PPO. I want more flexibility. I'm going to assumed they're subsidized as they're not from an employer. I'm trying to find something so that when I take time off...
