    Hiring manager offered position, HR said no and won't tell me why.

    Jory replied to MiloRN's topic in General Nursing

    1) Do you have anything on a background check? I would go to a website and run one on yourself in case someone has been arrested using your identify. It happens. 2) Don't check your references...

    School Shootings

    Jory replied to OldDude's topic in General Nursing

    If they are not going to change any gun laws, then at minimum, every school needs to have metal detectors and children go through a check point every day with limited number of entry points and law...

    Certified Midwife Path

    Jory replied to Gwenivere's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I would apply to the CNM program because the CM designation is only recognized in New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Delaware, Maine and Missouri. The CNM designation has the exact same scope of...

    Attending births with a CPM

    Jory replied to biggolp's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    No. You are not there in the capacity of a nurse, you are there in the capacity of a birth assistant. The patient is the CPMs and her responsibility to manage. Your license is not "higher" it is...

    Vanderbilt Pay Range

    Jory posted a topic in General Nursing

    Help please! My cousin is thinking of relocating from Florida to Nashville and she has been a nurse for roughly 10 years and has her MSN in nursing leadership. She is looking to work for Vanderbilt...

    Failed my drug test and I'm pregnant

    Jory replied to ianurse's topic in General Nursing

    I have a question for the group, an opiate screen comes back quickly (in a few hours), but can a fentanyl screen come back in 26 hours? At our hospital it takes a minimum of 48 hours for results for...

    What kind of lawyer can answer my questions?

    Jory replied to 1blueheron's topic in General Nursing

    If you have taken time off for your mental illness or a leave of absence or requested to do so by your employer I would say you need to disclose it. Otherwise, considering the high number of people...

    Working below your license

    Jory replied to happ09's topic in General Nursing

    You can work below your license but you can't be held liable below your license. You can't take your LPN knowledge away. Example: RN tells a medical assistant to give a blood pressure medication to...

    New Grad hired in the ER, question.

    Jory replied to Alexx_xox's topic in General Nursing

    I do not agree that new grads should start out in critical care with the one exception being the NICU. This is because there really isn't much experience you get in other areas of the hospital that I...

    Can't find a job! No job opportunities!

    Jory replied to PrettyNerd's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately this is a fact of the profession moving on. I know our hospital is completely phasing out LPNs. We are keeping the ones that already work here but new LPNs are not being hired. Get...

    Did I break HIPAA?

    Jory replied to brunette2296's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    You said you had four c-diff patients, the place where you worked was clearly visible. Do you know how many c-diff patients that hospital had that day? No, you do not. The RN and MD did not consent...

    Is this Facebook status Hipaa compliant?

    Jory replied to musicmouse44's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Obviously you are excited about your first day in clinical. In this particular post...no, it wasn't a HIPAA violation, but it was not a good idea. I never, ever say anything about my work on my...

    HIPPA violation if the patient isn't in your facility?

    Jory replied to MoonlightRose's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    It depends. Did this person tell the nurse in the context of a FORMAL nurse/patient relationship or is the nurse and this pregnant person friends? The first is a HIPAA violation. The second is just a...

    Nurse looked at my Facebook-HIPAA violation ?

    Jory replied to PlainB's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Facebook is public. If you don't want people looking at your Facebook profile, get rid of it. It's that

    What do you wear under your scrub pants in winter?

    Jory replied to vspaniel's topic in General Nursing

    LL Bean makes these ultra thin silk underwear that is designed to act as a second layer under clothing. Nylon just makes you sweat, the silk will breathe and keep you warm. I wear the tank and the...

    ADON having sex with CNA

    Jory replied to AWorley80's topic in General Nursing

    Why? Is this your crush or something and you feel like stirring the pot? No, you are not obligated to report it because it's none of your

    Peer Review questions

    Jory replied to Ddestiny's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with this entirely. I actually want to give this new nurse a high five for catching the error and investigating the cause for the change in her patient. Many would have blown it off because...

    DNR/DNI: What Age Would You Choose to No Longer Be Full Code?

    Jory replied to LollaPaupRN's topic in General Nursing

    To attach an age to it is ridiculous. You look at quality of life and what the patient wants, not their age. At what age do you think you would have lived long enough? Do you have the right to...

    HIPPA violation concern

    Jory replied to Nurselady2b27's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Yes it is. Just because you don't use a name doesn't mean you didn't violate HIPAA. You also don't know she was abused by her family. You were not there, you are assuming. You have to remember you...

    Mandatory new parent education

    Jory replied to Beeoneacu's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I see no point in doing mandatory parenting classes. It is not an OB's job to police parenting and I'm pretty sure the baby will come if they take parenting classes or not. What are you going to do...

    Patient Rights and POA

    Jory replied to shannonh17's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    It's not about the procedure it's about who makes the decision. You are asking them if you can follow a physician's order when the patient has refused, has a POA, and the physician is unilaterally...

    Patient Rights and POA

    Jory replied to shannonh17's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Yes, I bothered "reading the rest of the thread", I figured alert and oriented didn't need a whole paragraph of explanation on what that entailed as the OP already made it clear that the patient had...

    New Grad as a Clinical Liaison

    Jory replied to Alison2209's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I worked in restaurants for six years when I was younger. The only "communication skill" it teaches you is how to deal with difficult people. However, like many others have told you...this is not a...

    How do you deal with the conflict in nursing school?

    Jory replied to mzsuccess's topic in General Students

    You'll have the last laugh on this one. I graduated from my pre-licensure program too. She took the same attitude to her first job, got fired before she finished orientation. Fired from hospital...

    Husband is not ready for me to go to nursing school!!

    Jory replied to hamolady's topic in General Students

    You are in an abusive relationship and the sooner you get your degree, the sooner you can get out. You are closer to finishing than he is. He can work and go part-time, just like many others do....
