    accidental violation?

    Jory replied to sassyann85's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    No, it's not a HIPAA violation. Not even close. It's the hazard of electronic charting and it's common. If it were then that's a risk management would be doing is chasing down electronic mishaps. Not...

    When do going back to school STOP!!

    Jory replied to tlklvn13's topic in General Nursing

    Those are not promotions. Those are different jobs. Yes, it's a good thing and I support it. Do you really want a CNA who has never been to college putting you to sleep and all she has is on the job...

    Working on Expired License for 5 Weeks

    Jory replied to sainttchristopher's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Most Boards of Nursing have a grace period built in but you can't worry about this, call them TODAY and get it taken care of. If you don't get it straightened out, you are not only going to be out of...

    Nursing student with questions about ob/gyn clinic?

    Jory replied to jead1's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I agree. You can easily get a job in an inpatient OB right out of school and this will help you tremendously in clinic. However, clinics pay a lot less than a

    Jory replied to Oedgar's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    Why don't you just put the patient in the preferred room rather than move the Doppler. Put patients that won't need it in the room without one. Yes, that may mean taking a patient out of order but it...

    Does my RACE matter when applying to Nursing Programs?

    Comfortable living?

    Jory replied to Kdao's topic in General Nursing

    Also, the car note is excessive. I'm in my 40's and I always buy new, but I always negotiate to make sure it stays below $350 and 60 months or less. If I can't, I look at something

    How easy is it to lose a license in correctional setting?

    Jory replied to reptilesavvy's topic in Correctional

    I have seen many inmates denied medications that they depended on all because of egotistical practices. I've seen a long term addict on a LOW dose of suboxone he had only been on for a year and was...

    IV push failure - how I am failing

    Jory replied to Brandazzle1's topic in Patient Medications

    There is no standard in learning by example. That's why there are policies and manuals. My unit had a guide that was specific to my area of nursing. That became your best friend you first few months...

    Administering NICU MEDS

    To be honest...those two tricks you learned are about 99% of it. There are no books because a five minute explanation usually does it. Always take what the tube holds (be it IV or NG) and make sure...

    HESI exit exam as a requirement to graduate from the Rhode Island College Nursing Program

    HESI exit exam as a requirement to graduate from the Rhode Island College Nursing Program

    Jory replied to Rachel1001's topic in School, College Programs

    But your school doesn't have a 98% pass rate when it dropped students along the way on an outside test that the school never developed. Some students are just good test takers. That 98% doesn't...

    HESI exit exam as a requirement to graduate from the Rhode Island College Nursing Program

    Jory replied to Rachel1001's topic in School, College Programs

    I disagree with the HESI exam and believe it should be illegal for any nursing program to administer it. You pass you classes, graduate, and take your boards. If you don't pass and the college has to...

    AANP 2015 Salary Survey Results

    Jory replied to hakhama's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The west coast and New England regions throw off the results. When the stats come out they really need to do them by state. Even a general practice physician only makes around $160k

    Could I do nursing (BSN) if I have a criminal record?

    Jory replied to kariace's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    There is a cheap and easy way to figure this out. Go down to the courthouse, take your ID. Ask the clerk to look up the charge and she can tell you if there was a conviction or not. If there is a...

    Jory replied to EllePNto2b's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    The kicker is going to be clinicals, not class. There are no restrictions to attending class but there are restrictions to attending clinicals. Here, you have to have a full medical release, without...
