    Pregnancy and Nursing

    I would go ahead and try to get pregnant to where you would be around 7 months at graduation. That is enough of a buffer in case you have problems and will give you time at home with your baby, if...
  2. There is rarely any benefits anymore to senior nurses. It is sad. When I went to nursing school, I got my first job expecting to work nights until a day shift opened up. I expected to work holidays...
  3. Are you suggesting that the elderly don't need to live? That those with respiratory conditions should save us money and just die? Why do you only seem to value the death of a young person? You sound...
  4. In my state, you have to get a TDO (Temporary Detainment Order) approved by the magistrate or the patient is allowed to walk out the door. No physician can override that
  5. I'll tell you what is driving it...malpractice attorneys. If you are a licensed FNP and you take care of a patient in a hospital that is not a primary care level (observation patients are primary...

    CNM Market Saturation?

    I'm a CNM and there isn't a market saturation. There is, however, a lack of education. Do you know how I got my first CNM job? My school offers both FNP and CNM programs. The job advertised for a...

    PMHNP Walden

    It's more of a "for profit" than online. Even Vanderbilt has their program online and they are ranked #1. Duke University, also has their program
  8. Consensus model. FNP is primary care in focus. I'm a firm believer if you want to do inpatient, you need an AGACNP degree. FNPs are valuable in our healthcare system, but it doesn't substitute for...
  9. Here is how I look at it...never before have we been faced with this type of decision. The COVID-19 virus is similar to other types of viruses that we do have vaccines for. So I am expecting a...
  10. It actually isn't. See the problem with your post is OSHA isn't in the PPE manufacturing business. So if more PPE is needed one day than is possible to manufacture...then the above regulation holds...
  11. I don't disagree with anything you said at all...but how is that the patient's fault? The current healthcare system has ABSOLUTELY and without question...failed nurses and all frontline staff. But...
  12. Go back and read the original post, because you haven't done that or looked over it. I said that I supported nurses refusing to care for patients without proper PPE...BUT NO SUPPLY IS ENDLESS and a...
  13. I didn't exempt APRNs from that letter either. If there is a national emergency declared, the state can order you to the hospital and revoke your license if you don't go. Keep that in mind before...
  14. So you actually believe there is an endless supply of everything medical in our country? Seriously? Do you really believe that? Break out my scrubs? Honey, I wear scrubs every day. Get out of...
  15. Classic Millennial thinking and I not only don't care about what you think of me, I can't stand nurses like you either. Selfish! Selfish! Selfish! Don't you freaking get it????? What do you think...

    Abandonment

    If you drove yourself home, let's be honest...you were well enough to give report. If you didn't go straight to the ER, you weren't that sick. It meets the criteria and yes, they should pursue it....
  17. Suspected COVID patients at our hospital and confirmed cases are not taking care of anyone else. The alternative is to let the patient die if we don't take care of them. Equipment is never, ever...
  18. Honestly? I would wait until this plays out. If they have no evidence, they have no evidence. I have no doubt from your description that you are being 100% truthful. They only <insert...
  19. It shouldn't matter where the patient is located. If they can orient a new grad out of nursing school, they should be able to re-orient very quickly a seasoned
  20. So what is your plan if the equipment runs out before it is replenished? Allow people to lay there and
  21. My suggestion is if you cannot do this, then make your own cloth mask for an emergency, or leave healthcare. It's better than nothing. This is when the true call of duty arises. When I took this...

    Formal Charges Filed

    To me, that is the BON equivalent of being arrested with no conviction. However, that is just wrong they are making that public information. Anybody can turn anybody in for anything...doesn't mean...

    They locked up all the masks in security ?

    I would buy my own and put them in my locker, not even kidding. That is just ridiculous. I would wager there is another reason...people stealing
  24. It blows my mind in this day and age that anybody falls for these scams. If you have a question, call the BON
  25. This is what you do...make it your new company's problem HR can ask, but it doesn't mean they are going to get everything they want. Some new employer may be DYING to know how many times you were...
