    Mount Sinai NYC New Grad

    Which campus did you get interviewed for? Amazing that a new grad got a position in the ICU. I’m sure you will learn a lot. Is there base pay still $49? Are you part of NYSNA? Do you have the...
  5. "The nurses posting here are the nurses whose facilities haven't been hit. The nurses experiencing the surge are too exhausted to come and post here." You are absolutely right my friend. I work in a...
  6. Hey guys! Just wondering if any NP(non-acute setting) on this board still works in an acute setting as an RN and not an NP. Maybe a per diem or part time in order to keep their acute care skills...
  7. Thank you all for your responses. Like I mentioned before, I may feel differently once in the
  8. Thank you! That’s exactly what I mean. I am set on being a primary care provider, but there will be a part of me that misses that hustle and bustle. Which is why I wondered if there were any NP’s...
  9. What do you mean a joke of a thread? Did you mean the person who started the thread or the responses that came after? I started the thread and was not giggling as I was typing it. What's wrong with...
  10. Unfortunately, I am the sole provider in my home. So, I have to work if my family wants a roof and food. Being in an institution should help when seeking employment as an NP. However, if I had the...

    Ramadan

    It feels amazing reading all your responses. Muslim students are blessed to have such open minded and cool nurses looking out for them. It becomes obligatory on a Muslim to fast when they have reached...

    Texas school sets dress code for parents

    I just watched the video. I support her 100%. I would oblige by the rules if my children's schools had the same dress code. Kudos to her for stepping up. She did what a lot of people are afraid to...

    I just can't

    Wow! I can’t imagine being in the 4th grade and having to self cath. Not to be funny, but I feel manipulated by my own children at times. God bless school nurses, because I don’t think I could...

    Texas school sets dress code for parents

    The school is trying to set a tone. I understand what they’re trying to do, but don’t think it will last. Parent or no parent, I’m sick of the sagging pants. I made it very clear to my son what...
  16. In the last 4 years of being in a med-surg unit, 9 out of 10 times it was a CRNA showing up to every code. They are the ones intubating if needed. To be quite honest, I feel very proud when it is...
  17. I skimmed through some of the responses and I completely agree that it is a waste of time. If there is a change in the patient’s status, I will document the change as well as the intervention blah...

    SUNY Downstate FNP 2019

    Yes, I was accepted. I had applied very late and submitted right before the deadline. When I interviewed, I was told there were only 20 something seats left and I knew 21 people including me were...

    SUNY Downstate FNP 2019

    Were you interviewed for the FNP or WHNP? They are fully aware that people get nervous during interviews. They will look at you as a whole and not just from your interview. Try to relax and think...

    I was slapped by a patient

    This is going to sound super ignorant on my part, but why is HIPAA being mentioned in this situation at all? I don’t see the connection. Nurse assaulted by patient. End of story. There are huge...

    What do you do...

    If I have a few minutes to spare, I will joke around with my colleagues. There is always something to do on my med/surg unit, because another nurse may see you sitting and ask for help with something....

    Curiosity Killed the Cat and Got 50 Hospital Employees Fired

    I access charts of patients that aren't mine all the time. It almost always occurs when I am at the nursing station. For example, the dietary aid cannot find the nurse so he/she wants to know if the...
