  1. Hate "Midlevel"

    seanynjboy replied to PMFB-RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Just curious, has it changed to where an NP can write Home Health orders or sign a patient onto hospice yet? I used to work for an NP in Arizona in 2013 and at the time she still needed the...

    seanynjboy replied to mellowdude's topic in General Students

    I think your post is pretty awesome, the only thing I have to disagree on is this statement. "I would suggest to current students and pre nursing students to become a tech to see what this field is...

  4. I cringe at the thought of work

    seanynjboy replied to ALHRN11's topic in General Nursing

    There are so many avenues of nursing that do not involve bedside nursing. I personally HATED bedside nursing as well. I took an IT nursing position where I provided onsite support to nurses going...

  5. Fake call outs irritate me

    seanynjboy replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I partially agree with this. Every now and then (very seldomly) I call out when I am not sick. Sometimes I just need a day off. I have not taken a real vacation that was longer than a weekend in...

  6. Not a nurse

    seanynjboy replied to VaBluebird's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  7. Goodbye, fellow nurses

    seanynjboy replied to mcbg6335's topic in General Nursing

    I am going to be that person that says I think you are crazy. I am only drawing this conclusion by what you have posted. So if you have only worked in nursing homes then you have a one-sided view...

  11. Why is Epic better than Cerner?

    seanynjboy replied to MELY13's topic in Nursing Informatics

    EPIC rules and Cerner drools! Epic is way more user friendly in my opinion than Cerner but each HIS has their own merits. I am doing IT support for Cerner right now for the Barcode Admin go-live and...

    seanynjboy replied to TheCommuter's topic in School, College Programs

    seanynjboy posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  23. HESI vs NCLEX vs ATI

    seanynjboy replied to #NurseB's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Hey FutureRockstarRN, This is just a really tiny little bit of advice. I scored high enough on a Kaplan Exam (similar to HESI, just different company) that said I had a 97% chance of passing...
