2. Is health care a "right"

   Destiny'skid replied to tulip5's topic in Activism, Healthcare

4. Why are there no nursing jobs available for new grads? What is going on??

   Destiny'skid replied to vab229's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

5. Excited about becoming an lpn

   Destiny'skid posted a topic in LPN, LVN Students

6. What can I do to combat bullying?

   Destiny'skid posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   I seem to attract bullies to myself. I was bullies in school and in some previous jobs, but as cna bullying takes on a new dimension. First off I should say my job does things differently and I don't...

   Ok so I am going to probably cause a huge reaction here but I am genuinely curious about this. As a nursing student and current cna/med aide I have heard nurses talking about the trouble with patients...

9. Why do CNA's get low pay for the hard labor that they do?

   Destiny'skid replied to M4ri_777's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   I have always earned an average of 11 an hour I won't even look twice at jobs offering less than 9. I did have to get some education and considering how demanding the job is I just won't do it for...

    Destiny'skid replied to Destiny'skid's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Destiny'skid posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Just curious here, the last hospital I worked in was a magnet hospital and they were not hiring any lpn's even for outpatient. They fired their lpn's even the ones who had been there 20 plus years....

    Just curious as I have been reading some about the history of professional nursing. Do some hospitals still have orderlies? If so do they differ from cna's? Why do most hospitals not have them? Is...
