    CCRN goes by hours, not years worked.You may already qualify to take it! :)
  2. Leaving a toxic work environment. Help?!

    Hurry up and leave before you r there so long that you have to explain the gap in employment on your résumé. If you haven't been there long, u don't have to mention it.....
  3. Weekend Only Shift

    Night shift breaks your body down, and to me, changes your personality. You will feel better with this new job.

    I was at a hospital that did this, we had rapid responses every day in a few particular depts. cuz of poor orientation of new grads.....
  16. Do nurses get fired often?

    I got fired for missing too many days, I was pregnant and very, very sick but they didn't care. They had the nerve to tell me good luck with your baby as I walked out.

    Wow! Sounds like you are a bully victim, which contributes to unsafe working conditions, I agree you should find people who will not treat you this way.
  21. How to get faster at med pass

    Yeah, don't be rude, but just start walking out of the door, or sometimes I say , ok I will be back later, or I am going to visit some of your neighbors, and are all the meds passed new meds?? Some don't need a lot of education.
  22. preceptors?

    Always carry alcohol pads in your pocket, don't talk over me, and just because you don't want 6 patients on Med Surge, doesn't mean you are ready for the ICU.
