    jb2u replied to missrose's topic in General Nursing

    I treat all of my pts with respect and care for them equally. That being said, obesity, unless the pt has a tumor growing out of control, has something else going on. Unless these pts operate on a...

    jb2u replied to missrose's topic in General Nursing

    jb2u replied to one_L_micheLe's topic in Georgia Nursing

    First, welcome to allnurses. Second, I'm not positive, but I believe that it is GA law that you must have a license first. They use to issue temporay licenses to graduate nurses; however, that was...

  17. Preceptorship in ICU

    jb2u replied to Achoo!'s topic in MICU, SICU

    I agree. Know the basics. How much you get to learn depends on how long your preceptorship is. I'd say write down any meds or procedures that you do not know and study them when you get home. Also,...

    Hello everyone, I am Jay. OK, so, I have lost weight twice while in nursing school. Every time a big test came up, I'd stop exercising and the weight would come back plus some. Well, I graduated went...

    jb2u replied to wiSa's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Welcome to allnurses!!! When I worked PRN as a CNA, I did everything that the other CNAs did. I just did not qualify for benefits and was not guaranteed to work. If there was not a need for cna's they...
