  1. Would like to obtain MSN. How to get there?

    enuf_already replied to nurse jane doe's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I do not believe the Ohio Nurse Practice Act currently allows APNs to work independently (as in open their own practice). They are required to work with a consulting physician (I may have the exact...

  2. Need a better paying job in Colmbus OH

    enuf_already replied to Reikoweller1966's topic in Ohio Nursing

    For those specifications (days-Monday through Friday) with 3 years experience in Ohio? Good luck. Maybe if your husband is willing to work another shift, plus weekends and holidays the differential...

  3. RN but working LPN cases HELP!!!!

    enuf_already replied to Shimbo's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    My understanding when I worked home health is that the category is reimbursement based and dictates at which level the agency can bill insurance. It doesn't mean the patient is easier/not ill/doesn't...

  4. Nursing Assistant... My Thoughts

    enuf_already replied to IWANTCANDY's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    So what was your point? I don't think trying to pass this off as your own redeems your character. Why not just post a link to the article or ask opinions? Let's hope your real job has nothing to do...

  5. Nursing Assistant... My Thoughts

    enuf_already replied to IWANTCANDY's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Your profile states you are a pre-nursing student. Hopefully that is a mistake. That is my thought and my opinion. The rest is just

  6. 4600 Starting 3/26

    enuf_already replied to woodsyny's topic in Ohio University

    Congrats Woodsy! I'm glad you stuck with it and finished. To the rest of you...hang in there and keep looking at your goal of graduating. You can do this and be proud of your

  7. AIDS during the 80s

    enuf_already replied to Irish_Mist's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I was in nursing school in the late 70s when we were taught that you did not wear gloves, even to change a colostomy bag, because it might convey to the patient that you thought this was "dirty."...

  8. Working during RN-BSN program?

    enuf_already replied to Jack C's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  9. We are NOT babysitters!!!

    enuf_already replied to T-Bird78's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

  10. LVN-RN-BSN

    enuf_already replied to pnkgirl25's topic in LPN to RN

    RN=RN. No need to take the NCLEX again since you will have already passed it. The BSN will be additional education (which I highly recommend) but does not require you to take RN boards again. My BSN...

  11. Unbelievable

    enuf_already replied to FlyingScot's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    I second the motion. The evidence will prove it to be true. If action against you results (which it sounds like it already has) you could claim retaliation. I would not be happy. It would not end...

  12. Trying to find a career with chronically ill kids.

    enuf_already replied to desereelynn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  13. Help with Vaccines

    enuf_already replied to derbychick1218's topic in General Students

    Try your county or public health department. They do adult vaccines cheap, at least in my county/state. The pharmacy clinics still charge an arm and a leg but the public health department in your area...

  14. Do you ever have to buy supplies for your patients?

    enuf_already replied to startofcare's topic in Home Health

    If the wrong supplies are delivered or an inadequate amount are supplied for safe care, someone needs to be on the phone with the DME ASAP. If the patient/agency is aware you cannot deliver safe care...

  15. Endometriosis

    enuf_already replied to snantz's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Sometimes the answer is yes but not without a lot of medical intervention including surgeries, medications, and assisted reproductive technology such as IVF. Even milder cases of endometriosis can...

  17. 4600 Role call

    enuf_already replied to funfunfun550's topic in Ohio University

  18. How much does my insurance cover?

    enuf_already replied to SteveDE's topic in Diabetes, Endocrine Nursing

    I agree with this. The big problem is knowing whether something is covered and at what percent could be dependent on the day you call. For example: I have a high deductible insurance. If you call...

  19. Help with Teaching Project for "Nurse as Educator" Course

    enuf_already replied to Jocelwyn's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Do you have any family in the area? Friends? Belong to a church? What about a senior citizen group (not nursing home, but active seniors)? Any community college students in your area who might be...

  20. asked to delay child bearing

    enuf_already replied to KonaDog05's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I have no idea based on the legalities what your potential boss said but I do know how your coworkers may feel and what could happen to you if you get pregnant immediately after hire. Depending on...

  21. Keeping It Legal

    enuf_already replied to pearybRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You would be willing to ruin someone's career over an honest mistake? THIS is why people tend to not want to report errors--fear of retaliation. Thank goodness my workplace supports and encourages...

  22. A selfish nurse

    enuf_already replied to infexious's topic in General Students

    I'm confused. To those of you referring to the OP as "him" it appears by her profile, "she" is female. Knowing that and trying to follow this thread has given me brain damage ;-). Carry

  23. WHY do I need a BSN?

    enuf_already replied to AnnMarie52471's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

  24. WHY do I need a BSN?

    enuf_already replied to AnnMarie52471's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I've been an RN for 30 something years and initially graduated from a diploma program. I completed my BSN last summer. Did I learn anything in my nursing classes? No. Some of my non-nursing classes...

  25. Can you take a patient's medication without their consent?

    enuf_already replied to balmybalmblam's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    OP--what IF the patient becomes angry with you and accuses you of stealing his medication for your own use? The police could be banging at your door wanting answers. Trying to explain your way out of...
