It would all depend on the rules that Florida would have for transferring your CNA. Some States want you to take their States test, so you would have to take Gerorgia's state test to get your CNA and...
I guess its decision time. Both I am sure would be great jobs, but think about where you want to be in the future. What is your ultimate goal as a nurse. If it is a hospital department then I'd take...
Somehow what you think is going to be the dullest thread turns to be the most entertaining one due to the great minds of nurses. You all have me rolling on the floor here. We really should get a...
You being a size 6 says a lot about your frame. You must be a petite girl. My height and weight is almost the same as yours and I wear a size 12. Use to wear 8 but after babies and getting older its...
I can understand your frustrations. Is there anyone that can tutor you and help you understand what areas you are struggling with to pass NCLEX. It won't make sense to keep taking it if you do not...

In life there is always times we wish we did things differently in hind sight. We are never going to be perfect at our job. Maybe remember that no matter what parents are always in charge, and it may...
Someday she herself may find herself in a pee soaked bed and I could only pray that she remembers that she thinks its OK that her nurses don't clean her up right
Not an easy task at all, but try to have a routine as much as humanly possible. Sometimes have activities for them to look forwards to that allows them to zone in on something fun and enjoyable for...
You just have to know that you had a lot going on and your head just was not in the game when you took your test. Take a deep breath find a few days or weeks of quietness and study. I'm sure you will...
It does seem stranger then usual around here lately. One of the reasons I am addicted to AN is I love to help people out when they have a problem, or just give a big hug to a stranger in need.. but...
I agree that the resident needs a full evaluation and everyone including facility and family members need to sort out a plan foe taking care of her and the issues. No aide or nurse should have to have...
I tell you what I've been cathed a few times and the best caths are after I am knocked out cold before surgery and I don't have to feel it go in. A male nurse could cath me and a dozen more male...
OK you need to be more clear in your post. You made it sound that you went on the trip WITH them. Not that you are just a school nurse that when the kids came back you had to deal with the
Again there is no why on this earth that I would take on a job of trying to keep 20 teenagers from getting into trouble. I'm not sure what you want us to be compassionate about. That 20 teenagers made...
If you actually and truly went on this trip then I'd rename this post loco nurse. Don't you think you yourself could get into legal problems if you were suppose to keep 20 teens in check and not let...
Well in this fascinating world of women should only take care of women and men take care of men... that means I better call my employer and say you have to find a male CNA to take care of my 3 male...
For goodness sakes it is not the briefs fault for these skin issues if a place allows people to wear a brief for 10 hours without a change. That is neglect on the facilities part. The breakdowns are...
Why not take diapers away from babies too since they must be as bad as briefs. Let them run around naked because briefs and diapers are apparently evil. I really would like those that think just...
Also while you were there what was the work environment like. Did it feel pretty clean. Did you notice maybe the amount of CNA and nurses walking around. These type of things will help you as well to...
You believe that a female should cath a female only yet you as a male are working in an area just for women's health. I'm sorry but I dont understand your logic of working in this area and only...
