    My coworker was high and got away with it

    I think you should actively pursue this so your coworkers and HR can see what kind of snake in the grass you're acting like. If you don't have proof, stop being such a busy body. It is people such as...

    Question for nurses that are male...

    You keep referring back to this idea that you are the victim. FYI, I start IVs too. A lot of them. I lift, transfer, and ambulated pts, have my assignments switched constantly, and often leave much...

    Question for nurses that are male...

    It has nothing to do with misogyny but the fact that I'm consistently fighting to keep my patient assignments with the excuses consisting of, "she can't have that patient, she's pregnant" or "she...

    Question for nurses that are male...

    Call me whatever you want but we should be getting paid more for doing more lifting and taking on more difficult or high risk pts. I'm sorry but it's not my problem that a nurse is small or pregnant...

    Anyone do virtual ATI and pass?

    I am sorry to hear about the other attempts but hopefully 3rd time is a charm. How long did you wait btw exams? As I stated from my test plan above, I did about 5K of Qs in about 3 weeks time (keep...

    Anyone do virtual ATI and pass?

    I did it in conjunction with Kaplan bc ATI was offered through my school. Kaplan was way harder and will make you pass in 75 Qs. ATI is good so you don't get the easy Qs wrong but if I had to choose...

    New Grad States & Relocating

    Most out of state resumes get put to the bottom of the heap. That's not to say its not possible. Everyone says small unattractive cities (which I believe likely to be the best scenario), but very...

  22. Lack of communication is the number one cause of med errors and sentinel events. Students and professionals alike need to find their voice. What's the worst that happens? Someone says you're wrong?...
  23. ADNs are being phased out. Research proves that they more BSNs a hospital has, the better patient outcomes occur. My best advice is to bear down and hand your business. Make as much sacrifice as you...
