    She got fired...

    Jory replied to StL_Momma27's topic in General Nursing

    I'll be honest...I think that your classmate was making the situation up for attention. No way do I believe her story. It also isn't going to take an hour to get a doctor there, any resident or...

    At my boiling point...you are NOT a Nurse...of ANY kind!!!!

    Jory replied to nursehunnie's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    This is another area where nurses have killed our own profession by not organizing on a NATIONAL level. Try referring to yourself as a medical doctor when you are not and see how much legal trouble...

    Calling a doctor question.

    Jory replied to iwashere's topic in General Nursing

    Proper telephone etiquette when you are with any business calling is to first identify yourself before asking for the person you need to speak with. So the proper greeting is: "Hello, this is Jane Doe...

    Abolishing the Pinning Ceremony

    Jory replied to drem7116's topic in General Nursing

    My argument that the practice is outdated, is I am wondering if they also make an announcement at these graduation ceremonies where they cheated nursing students out of their pinning, if the...

    Abolishing the Pinning Ceremony

    Jory replied to drem7116's topic in General Nursing

    Forgive me if I have already posted this tidbit of information, because I couldn't find where I posted this. I graduated from a very large university that had a medical school and the year I graduated...

    Not sure if this is a HIPAA violation...anyone an expert?

    Jory replied to Jory's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    My theory that I tried to explain, in vain, to the LPN, that while there is some overlap of information, that we cannot disclose anything regarding the mother's medical history unless we can prove it...

    Was this a fair consequence?

    Jory replied to danachap1's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, they were justified in firing you. They don't know if it was the first time you stole or if you took the needles to give yourself B-12 injections or heroin. I also don't know how someone else...

    Clinical Supervision of Medical Assistants

    Jory replied to twoangels's topic in General Nursing

    It's my understanding, and I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong, that a clinic that employs medical assistants, that the physicians, not the RN's, are accountable for what they do from a...

    Randon drug screen.....scared!

    Jory replied to TinyRNgrl's topic in General Nursing

    There is a reason why they didn't ask you what you were taking...it's to protect your privacy. The only prescriptions that they will ask you to produce is the ones that come back positive for the...

    Pushed Around..

    Jory replied to resumecpr's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    No, you have not pushed this too far. Management has pushed it too far by allowing her to engage in the behavior and reinforcing it by saying she is "just that way." That is the most ridiculous...

    Failing a student in clinical

    Jory replied to Berkshire1995's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    I had limited experience in giving medication during nursing school so when I became a licensed RN, that was really the first time I started giving medication and I was very, very paranoid about...

    To mention or not to mention plans for BSN in the future when interviewing

    Jory replied to OnlybyHisgraceRN's topic in General Nursing

    I would mention it. It gets tricky when you are applying to graduate school because the assumption is...you'll leave when you

    Realize I'm lucky, but still struggling with 12 hr day shift

    Jory replied to MissIt's topic in General Nursing

    I am too, really, really struggling with the 12-hour shifts. So trust me, I feel your pain. I work nights and there are so many interruptions with traffic and other things during the day. I have used...

    Waitlisted at Frontier Univ...in shock, any advice?

    Jory posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I have been a registered nurse in a well-baby nursery for 4 years. I completed my BSN 2 years ago and graduated with a 4.0 GPA. My dream was to attend Frontier to be a Women's Health NP. I applied...

    Waitlisted at Frontier Univ...in shock, any advice?

    Jory replied to Jory's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Thank you everyone for the words of support. I guess what is surprising me the most, is I could understand, if my academic profile was deficient. I had others to look over the two statements that I...
