  1. Nurse Calling In Scripts to Pharmacy Illegally

    I say leave it alone. It sounds like this is the culture of the workplace. Let the nurse and the doctor work it out between themselves, without interfering in their relationship. Nurses fill out...
  2. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    I'm not sure if there is anyone in this thread looking for your approval, even if it were
  3. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Aging is not an accomplishment of some sort, susie, nor does it impress anyone. It's something everybody goes through, even the morons. You don't get points just for being old,
  4. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Commuter, try to follow what's going on. That was my point. All I did was take your thread title and insert opposite adjectives to the stereotypical ones that your title included. If it's wrong in...

    What are your basing your perception
  6. Sutter of Calif. does it again...

    I think your link is broken. Try this one: http://www.nationalnursesunited.org/press/entry/sutter-vallejo-hospital-ordered-to-stand-labor-board-trial This healthcare organization sounds terrible....
  7. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Very true. Just reverse the adjectives in the title of this silly thread: "Old, fat, and Ugly New Hires" and just watch the outrage explode from the nurses who identify with that. I think that tells...
  8. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    In that case, your OP is even worse than I imagined. No new grads? Sounds like a terrible, anti-education, anti-teaching facility to me. Is this in the boonies of Wyoming or something? At any...
  9. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

    Why are there so many negative theads by certain individuals on this board, aimed at lecturing new grads? It's always the same theme, the same people posting it. Contrary to most of the sheepish...
  10. Almost this exact situation happened to me during when I searched for a second job. I worked at a hospital in NYS for 8 months but had to relocate to CT for personal reasons. I left my old job in...
  11. Best complaint you've heard?

    That isn't a sound. That's a visual distortion -- like you
  12. Snow- at what point do you call out?

    I live in CT and have to work tonight. I actually have 4WD and I think I can handle it, but I don't begrudge anybody who calls out due to the weather. It's a near white-out here. It isn't the...
  13. Snow- at what point do you call out?

    If they come into work early before the roads get bad, then those employees should be compensated for their time and inconvenience. Maybe these facilities wouldn't have issues with callouts if they...
  14. Snow- at what point do you call out?

    I balk at the idea that it's your responsibility to own a 4WD vehicle because you work for a hospital.
  15. Not currently, but this environment was present big time at my first hospital. Nurses tend to have low self esteem and are bent on "one-upping" each other in order to make them feel better about...
  16. Generally, the people the OP are describing are just insecure idiots. I ignore
  17. leaving first nursing job before 1 year mark?

    I worked at my first job as a new grad in med surg for only seven months. I left because the ratios were terrible and we hardly any ancillary staff and the hospital had cancelled all raises for the...

    Maxim was found responsible for massive Medicare fraud. If I were working there, I would want to leave as soon as possible because I wouldn't want my own rep to be tainted by any funny businness by...
  19. jobs

    I have heard TERRIBLE things about maxim. Other TERRIBLE employers include Crouse Hospital in Syracuse NY and Unity Hospital in Rochester NY. As well, the medical cardiology department at Yale New...
  20. Didn't get the job

    Three interviews? Sounds like that employer really liked to give prospectives a big run-around and put you through as many hoops as they delight in. Think positive; they sounded like slimy hirers...
  21. Disappointed Nursing Student

    Unfortunately, having to repeat courses during a transfer is all too common. My ADN program required I take health assessment for 3 credits... and my RN BSN program required I take it again, despite...
  22. Which areas are hiring?

    Central New York, around Syracuse. Oswego Hospital is my older employer, and they were ALWAYS
  23. Dispute between nurses and doctors

    We have one; it's called "Nurse Jackie." And it depicts the "iconoclastic nurse" as a drug addicted individual who has sex affairs in the
  24. Why not? Enormous grants are given to healthcare facilities for physician residency programs. Why not offer the same to nurse residency programs? Are nurses not as vital to this country's...
  25. Professionals or "workers"

    Which portion of the OP's post utilized inflammatory language? I didn't see any words or phrases that were inflammatory. The OP asked a legitimate
