  1. Application Rejections

    jeanbeth replied to LTCPhD_Nrs's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    As an MSN I also had hoped to become a nurse educator though I had no teaching experience. I found an LPN program that hired me with no teaching experience. I emphasized all the informal experiences I...

  2. Bill introduced to allow AI to prescribe medications

    jeanbeth replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    "... if authorized by the state involved and approved by the FDA." But employees have already been fired at the FDA and the Director of FDA food safety has resigned as a result. Who will be left to...

  3. Is This Common in LTC?

    jeanbeth replied to Googlenurse's topic in General Nursing

    Oh no no no. A sliding scale like this (usually written 0-100; 101-200; 201-300, etc.) is not safe because the MD specifically ordered a call-out if the blood glucose level is above 400 and a nurse...

  4. Clinical Grading

    jeanbeth replied to ellee45's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    My school uses pass/fail and we evaluate student progress each week, looking for just that - progress. Our students go to different clinical sites so it is deemed unfair to grade students on practice...

  5. Leaving the Bedside

    jeanbeth replied to Live.Intentionally's topic in General Nursing

    I left bedside nursing for the reasons exactly as you describe them - "It was about requesting certain days off and not having it approved. It was about not being reimbursed for a conference that...

  6. What is up with the level of entitlement?

    jeanbeth replied to sofla98's topic in General Nursing

    I don't understand why it's okay to say "boomers are entitled" or "millennials are entitled". Would it be okay to say "blondes are entitled" or "blue-eyed men are entitled"? Please don't...

    jeanbeth replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    This didn't irritate me as much as hearing Hawley say "irregardless" in his speech....

  9. What is up with the level of entitlement?

    jeanbeth replied to sofla98's topic in General Nursing

    This is an interesting post because it reflects what my new grad students say to me when they come back to visit me on campus - in reverse. Last week a newly hired grad texted me, "why don't the...

    jeanbeth replied to newRN109's topic in General Nursing

  12. Violent Insurrectionists Storm United States Capitol

    jeanbeth replied to herring_RN's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    jeanbeth replied to porscheXN's topic in General Students

    I am an instructor in a nursing school and a verbal attack in class happened to me. The student quickly sent me an email of apology, which I appreciated. However, the class seemed to continue to shun...

  15. Huge Zoom Mistake....Nurse Instructors Caught!

    jeanbeth replied to Pre.Nurse_tobe's topic in General Nursing

    I can't help thinking about the students - how sad and discouraging to hear this kind of talk from people you had hoped to learn from. The professors' disrespect and lack of support for their students...

  17. Nurse Educator Salary in Middle/East Tennessee

    jeanbeth replied to LadyStark's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    I teach in a technical school (for profit) in an LPN program. I was surprised the salaries are better than non-profit state schools. You might want to check that out in your state

  18. Is this typical for an LPN program?

    jeanbeth replied to Jo89's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  19. DNP vs PhD

    jeanbeth replied to ProgressiveThinking's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I pursued the DNP for several reasons but the 2 main reasons: 1) I wanted to be able to teach in an MSN program and all programs that I looked in to require a terminal degree. I currently teach...

  20. MD saying I didn’t do something

    jeanbeth replied to Gigi27's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I always always always document "called out to MD at 1100, 1200, and 1300 hours. Awaiting callback. Supervisor updated." because it's the same old thing - If you didn't document it you didn't do

  21. Clinical pass/fail or a grade

    jeanbeth replied to LilyRN99's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Pass/fail at my school. None of my students would earn a passing grade in clinical - they are students who have no healthcare experience with live patients. We bring them along slowly and carefully...

  22. Dr. Pimple Popper Thinks Nurses Have No Place Educating Patients

    jeanbeth replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in General Nursing

    The eye roll emoji was not meant as a slight? Pretty clear to me that if not an attack on nurses it was a sign of
