I'm a clinical research nurse. I believe you would be best served in this role by completing your RN degree. I know different institutions vary with pay, but mine compensates well for the RN degree vs the coordinators who aren't RNs.

I've been an adult nurse for 14 years. I bounced between ER and pre/post caths and op surgery. I've always wanted to do peds and my town just built a peds hospital. I applied and got a job working on a general med/surg floor starting next month. I'm really nervous and feel like I'm starting at the beginning again. I just wanted to know if you could share something you wish you had known before you started working in peds?

I was wondering how you like the DNP program? Does it let you sit for FNP boards afterwards?

Are there any emergency or critical care nursing podcasts I could subscribe to? Thanks.

Congratulations!

Thanks for your input! I'm a fairly low key person so maybe EP would be right up my alley : )

Hello SMYSJanie! I was wondering if you could tell me a little bit about your job. I'm going in for an interview in my hospital's EP lab. Any tips for the interview? What type of person do you feel makes a good EP nurse? Thanks!

Hello! I'm considering accepting a position in my hospital's EP lab. I have been a nurse for 10 years with experience in ER (currently), cardiac step down, and cardiac research. What do you like most/least about the EP lab? And anything else you would like to add to help me get a better feel for the job! Thank you so much!

Everyone should be treated with respect. You shouldn't have to prove yourself to receive simple human decency. While becoming respected as a nurse should be earned, being with simple human respect should be given.
