    Jory replied to richardgecko's topic in General Nursing

    It depends on what it is. There are some things that I would turn my best friend in for. There are other things that are "policy" that I would completely ignore because personally, I think the...

    Nurse Recruiter and HIPAA violation?

    Jory replied to SookieBSN's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I second this. Don't assume that the person that you spoke to did anything with the information. I would give the HIPAA compliance officer a call just like JustBeachyNurse said. I would be madder...

    Frontier WHNP

    Jory replied to carlygh's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    ...but do apply to another program as a back up. You have to remember that Frontier has four starts a year for most of their programs and start at odd times. They only notify you about two weeks...

    Do I answer "YES," I have used drugs on my state license application? (Pennsylvania)

    Jory replied to zephyr9's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I would answer "no" to that question as well. I do not feel that anyone with an addiction history that has been resolved should be penalized forever, especially if they have a clean background record....

    RPN-Workplace not hiring unemployed

    Jory replied to bokuwakuma's topic in Canada

    Unless your friend works in the HR department, it sounds like all she is doing is spreading an unfounded rumor. Follow up on your resume and keep applying to jobs with that employer that you desire. I...

    HELP: How Extensive Are Hiring Background Checks?

    Jory replied to khaleesikitten's topic in General Students

    It's not an issue as long as it is not illegal in your state. If your "employer" required you to file taxes, the practice is usually illegal. Camgirl activities is not prostitution, therefore, legal...

    What makes a nursing contract binding & official?

    Jory replied to Kit.Kat's topic in General Nursing

    You actually SAY to a new employer that you would have an attorney to look it over first? Doing it is one thing, most nurses don't have the $250 an hour it takes to pay one, but actually saying that?...

    What makes a nursing contract binding & official?

    Jory replied to Kit.Kat's topic in General Nursing

    This too, is laughable. Do you really think an employer has a choice in how they pay you? They do not. Quit your job and if they don't pay you your FULL hourly wage for every hour you put in there,...

    What makes a nursing contract binding & official?

    Jory replied to Kit.Kat's topic in General Nursing

    I have to disagree. This is not complex. Just because you sign something, does not make it legally binding. It is simple. You cannot be forced to work anywhere, period. You are not an upper-level...

    Jory replied to mkat123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm going to be honest with you...take the campus course. I had so many questions in class I could not imagine taking something that complex online. A&P is no joke. I did the same thing...I took...

    Jory replied to nurseNsearch15's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    Elkpark has a tremendous amount of experience and was right in correcting you because you needed to be corrected. Do not say that "most" nurses do not know what a DNP entails because that isn't...

    Jory replied to nurseNsearch15's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I respectfully, but 100% disagree with you on most of your points. If you think the MD/PA model is superior, then someone needs to go that route. I do not desire to be a physician. Increased...

    Recovering opiate addict accepted into nursing school; Can I attend while prescribed Subox

    Jory replied to MaleLPNStudent2's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You answer ONLY what the Board of Nursing requires on the application. If you come off of it and then never take it again, I have never heard of anyone having to report a history of being in a drug...

    Recovering opiate addict accepted into nursing school; Can I attend while prescribed Subox

    Jory replied to MaleLPNStudent2's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I agree. I live in a state where the schools must take you because you fall under ADA guidelines. However, the BON here calls it "impaired practice" and as long as someone is in a drug replacement...

    Frontier WHNP

    I could be off base, but I think their applications have pulled back because for a LONG time, people were getting off-the-wall rejections like mine. One girl that had very little nursing experience...

    I actually do. Years ago, pharmacy school was only a couple of years past your BS and having a doctorate in pharmacy was very rare. Almost all of the "old school" pharmacists that I have met I have...

    Jory replied to carlygh's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Yes it was. I applied back in 2012. I am usually a "go with the flow" in regards to college admissions but I was truly devastated at the rejection. However, let me give you some more information....

    Jory replied to jrobbin44's topic in General Nursing

    I see what it says but I think a good lawyer could argue that differently and I'll give you an example. If I was employed with General Hospital for two months and I said that I voluntarily left, that...
