    CP2013 replied to skyflight's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    CP2013 replied to skyflight's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    CP2013 replied to Timetogo's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Check with your BON, you might need to take a refresher course after such a long absence and getting BLS is a good idea, because that's a basic requirement for many nurses, and the ACLS/PALS/etc is...

  22. Dealing with rude people when applying for positions

    CP2013 replied to RNdynamic's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    CP2013 replied to mommynurse25's topic in Emergency

    If your heart really isn't in it, then stop applying for jobs you don't want. That'd be a good place to start. As for your predicament, couldn't you ask to drop to PT in the ED and take the FT in OB?...
