   cammy429 replied to chachou22's topic in New York Nursing

   cammy429 replied to cammy429's topic in General Nursing

   See thats the thing, I have asked quite a bit of nurses and they've said suctioning as well. I've worked in pulmonary for a couple years and have seen some nasty sputum and it doesn't bother me at...

   cammy429 posted a topic in General Nursing

   Nursing, for a long time was a career that I tried to avoid because I had a very weak stomach. I feel like I made the right decision in deciding to become an RN because I am a nurturer. There are...

13. staffing

    cammy429 replied to dmaster's topic in New York Nursing

    IMO I think that they do try. I know when my unit has staffing issues they get out and recruit and hire new nurses. I have never seen a NYC hospital offer sign on or relocation bonuses though. People...

    cammy429 replied to dmaster's topic in New York Nursing

    U can probably find a studio for that price...to be honest it may even be more. Rent has sky rocketed in the area because the Nets are going to be moving there in the next couple years. Most apt...
