1. Nursing job market in Las Vegas

   Lapzs replied to Independence8's topic in Health, Stress Management

   I have no experience elsewhere, so I can't provide a comparison. I became a nurse about 2 years ago in Las Vegas, got a job a month after I passed my NCLEX, and have since gotten 2 per diem jobs. All...

2. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

   Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

   I appreciate everyone's input, but it seems like some people formed a different perception, both of the event itself and of Jen and I. Others seemed to have read the story but did not absorb all of...

3. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

   Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

   My final set of clarifications: 1. I couldn't wrap the IV after my med passes. I didn't have the opportunity. I was in the process of finishing up my med passes when I was suddenly bombarded with...

4. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

   Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

   Agreed. However, I can't perform my job if she doesn't perform hers. We both have roles to play and unfortunately, she cannot perform all of mine. So I prioritized, like I'm supposed to do as the RN,...

   I think your post sums up pretty well my forethoughts on this entire

6. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

   Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

   I already addressed your concerns in this thread. Many times. I think you have an incorrect perception of what happened. I didn't tell her to stop her lunch. I told her the task can wait until...

7. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

   Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

   I disagree. Though, I can see how I may have come off as such. 1. I already clarified this. I think 5 times now. I won't explain any more. 2. Stopping her from leaving was definitely a mistake. I...

   Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

   Well, it's the truth. Oftentimes, they offer me some but I learned quickly that their sprays only make my own BO

   WOAH! I'm glad to see that a lot of people are willing to provide their input. I appreciate what everyone has said. No need to fight with one another. Here's a summary of my thoughts so far: 1....

11. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like it was my wording that confused you. Semantics and diction were never strong suits of mine. I've stated the truth from my perspective as best as I could. Whether you believe me based on...

12. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    This happened quite recently, so I haven't heard anything from my director or anybody in upper management. As I said in my original post, I was just told by my charge RN literally the day after this...

13. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    I don't understand your suspicions. Perhaps it was due to my wording? Or maybe a lack of clarification? I think I've re-explained and elaborated on this part of the story, like, 3 times now. I'll...

14. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with you. I would have wrapped up the IV myself after I finished my med passes. However, as I said in my original post, I had just finished my last or second-to-last med pass and walking down...

15. Accusation Against Male Nurse (Me)

    Lapzs replied to Lapzs's topic in General Nursing

    I thought I explained this part already. Before all of this happened, I was having my lunch. Towards the end of my lunch, she came in. I didn't ask whether she was on break (15 mins) or lunch (30...
