    What would you be in another life?

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to NurseYoshi's topic in General Nursing

    I've had 4 careers in my lifetime, and honestly given how much nursing has changed in the past decade I think instead of nursing as my last(hopefully!) job I'd have opened my own business. Not sure...

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to babynurse98's topic in Nurses Recovery

    First off, OP if you are a nurse as you say and you can't figure out why you doubling up on the script your doctor wrote you for a highly addictive medication is "wrong" you need to find yourself...

    Want to be a nurse but I am really bad academically

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to Raistlin007's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I thought the same thing, but in reading the clarity of the posts I'm leaning towards the OP being a touch hard on herself. I'm also thinking the OP has valuable life-experience and any one of the...

    Are new grad RNs able to get a job in home health ?

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in First Year After Licensure

    And if the agency doesn't require acute care experience-run away as fast as you can. Home health care requires excellent assessment skills and knowing a little about a lot of diseases. Also need good...

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in General Nursing

    Scope of Practice for professional nurses in Assisted Living

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to Malia BSN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, sorry OP but your mother's level of care is apparently exceeding that facility's capabilities. Assisted living facilties are not meant for complex care issues. She might be better served by a...

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to guest135581's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in General Nursing

    I totally agree. I have left bedside nursing for a case management position that pays well, not as much as I had been making but with a great corporate culture and a M-F schedule. Do I miss having...

    Why NANDA-NIC-NOC are not open source?

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to jesusignazio's topic in General Nursing

    Pretty much sums it up for me. I always envisioned a bunch of grumpy harpies sitting around the break room expressing their disgust that "nurses DON'T diagnose" and deciding to create their own little...

    Evolution of my nursing career, the hard way.

    CharleeFoxtrot replied to MrsSilverFox's topic in General Nursing

    So sorry that the OP had to go through that. I can empathize, I could have written that post. It mirrored experience when I was (briefly) a floor manager. I quickly decided that I was not a good...
