  3. How far should I further my education?

    livefully replied to ccarda's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Rock on, TheCommuter! LOL, I was under the (mistaken, apparently) impression that nurses tend to stick in a niche once there. Like once an L&D nurse, always an L&D nurse, but I see what you're...

    livefully replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

  5. How far should I further my education?

    livefully replied to ccarda's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That is an interesting assignment. Is the school affiliated with the site? Anyway, specializing is generally done once you graduate, so no additional expenses. I'm also not quite sure what you mean...

  10. Got an interview but...I'm not so excited anymore

    livefully replied to Catch22Personified's topic in General Nursing

    FWIW, I would encourage you to go to the interview. You never know how you will feel afterwards. It may be the best interview you ever had, or you might feel the grass is greener where you

  11. I'm panicking! Now I can't resign!

    livefully replied to perfexion's topic in General Nursing

    I would go up higher in the chain of command as well as give a dated, signed copy to HR. Leave a message on her phone and email her a copy with explanation that it's not ideal, but it's the best you...

  15. Healthy Snacks

    livefully replied to NurseKateC's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's Orville (sp?) that has microwaveable kettle corn. It's sweet and salty and oh so yummy lol. I also like LaraBars. A bit pricey, and definitely high calorie, but natural ingredients

    livefully replied to SilleLu's topic in Critical Care

    livefully replied to yayita's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  20. I Lost All Respect For A Colleague Today

    livefully replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I feel sorry for Heidi, and thoroughly disgusted by Dick. The fact that he is carrying out his shenanigans in a unit in which wife is known and that she frequents, shows that he has a complete...

  21. Newish grad. Dealing with students on the ward.

    livefully replied to loveoutloud's topic in First Year After Licensure

    As a new nurse myself, I understand. But think how far you have come since your first day. I always do my own assessments. I'll have the student doing his/her own along side me, and we can talk about...
