  2. thinking about moving to USA

    ANnot4me replied to red_caviar's topic in Nurse Registration

    A SSN is your key to working and living in the US: it is your unique identification number and it will follow you for your entire life. You will always need a SSN number to work or live in the

  3. I cringe at the thought of work

    ANnot4me replied to ALHRN11's topic in General Nursing

    I just do not know what to say except that it is not you and it is not your fault. It is also not easy to walk away. The same people who disrespect you now will have little understanding of why you...

  8. My obamacare experience

    ANnot4me replied to coast2coast's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    What an irrational argument. Compare apples to apples: the US has the most unjust healthcare system in the OECD. My goodness leave the extremism out of the argument as it is just plain

  10. things are not what they seem

    ANnot4me replied to newrnltc's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  11. are private school more lenient on their admission requirements?

    ANnot4me replied to mee9mee9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    However easy to get into, it may be a different matter getting out. Accredited schools need to maintain a certain pass rate on the NCLEX or face losing that accreditation (or so it was 20 years ago)....

  12. Hanging It Up

    ANnot4me replied to VivaLasViejas's topic in Retired Nurses

    ANnot4me replied to pheonixRN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    All I can say to this is that the nursing profession is what is because nurses have allowed it to happen. We only have ourselves to

  16. You want us to do what?!?

    ANnot4me replied to SilenceintheLibrary's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Oh how I would laugh at this proposition if it weren't so sad. Sounds like your manager is looking to feather her own nest and grease some palms. Your manager is a symbol of everything that is wrong...

  17. What nursing habits do you take home?

    ANnot4me replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    I use antibacterial dish washing liquid and wash my hands with antibacterial soap before taking dishes out of the dishwasher and putting them away. If I have a cold, I do not shake hands or touch...

  21. Sorry state of Nursing ...

    ANnot4me replied to Howardhughes's topic in General Nursing

    Nurses are responsible for the current state of the profession. I know of too many nurses who participate in the delivery of care that they would not wish upon themselves or their family in exchange...

  22. Reciprocity of Australian License

    ANnot4me replied to aedis_aegypti's topic in Australia, New Zealand

    You will not find a job or sponsorship in NZ without first becoming a Registered Nurse with the NZ Council of Nurses. The requirements for registration are now very similar to Australia. It can be...

    ANnot4me replied to nznurse12's topic in Australia, New Zealand
