    one side love problem between student nurse and doctor

    OrganizedChaos replied to chinglee's topic in General Students

    How is he motivating you & what nursing attachment? You really just need to move on from him. He clearly isn't interested or he would've made it

    one side love problem between student nurse and doctor

    OrganizedChaos replied to chinglee's topic in General Students

    At least I'm not the only one who thinks it sounds stalker-ish. I agree. If he didn't respond to your message & he's upset let him go. He obviously isn't interested in you. Obsessing over him...

    I need help. =(

    OrganizedChaos replied to MissyERnurse's topic in General Nursing

    That's really confusing. I don't get why they're having you go to an adult floor (especially when you state peds is your main weakness) when you work in the ER. Weird. Good

    OrganizedChaos replied to chinglee's topic in General Students

    Wow. Wowwie wow wow. How old are you? You sound like you have a lot of growing up to do. Either drop out of nursing school (if your only reason to get in it was for him) or focus on it. If you've been...

    Second career nurses: what if you ended up not liking nursing?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Infofreak411's topic in General Nursing

    You can ask all the questions you want (which you clearly are). But you won't know if you like nursing unless you do

    I hope you can figure things out between work & school! I'm sure it will all come

    Able To Work Business Hours?

    OrganizedChaos replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    As a previous poster said the clinicals are going to be 12 hours so you need to dedicate your time to school. Instead of bartending, why don't you look into CNA

    Nurses can eat properly if they manage their time

    OrganizedChaos replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    I remember when I was working at a nursing home I was on my "break" (ha! What a joke). I was in the break room, just sat down, had my sandwich in my mouth & an aide came & got me. So I just...

    Able To Work Business Hours?

    OrganizedChaos replied to mirandaaa's topic in General Students

    When I was in my LVN program clinicals were during the weekday. I have read on here that there are noc clinicals. But it doesn't sounds like your school does them. You might have to cut down on work...

    Oh, I have to add. I was orienting on a PDN case & the nurse orienting me didn't like what I did. But instead of correcting me or talking to me, she went to our DON. Let me tell you I didn't stay...

    OrganizedChaos replied to XNavyCorpsman's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I agree with everything you said, while work shouldn't be a popularity contest we can make it easier or difficult on ourselves to get along with our coworkers. If we keep bringing up to them every...

    I live in a small city, with one hospital & I don't see them getting iPads. Where I've worked everything was ALWAYS at the nurses station, so sorry to pop your bubble. Not everything is updated to...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, I either didn't eat or had to scarf it down in a few minutes. Then I ate the same way at home. People were always telling me to calm down. Haha. Although it has helped since I had a

    It's NOT a big if, the OP didn't state where the computers are. That is YOUR experience. NOT the OPs. My experience has been everything was at the nurses station. And unless you work with all of us...

    I would much rather have a smoother working environment then have everyone hate me, not want to help & avoid me because they think of me as a narc. Which will happen to this person if he does what...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Sdongoske's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I got my LVN first because I wasn't sure if nursing was for me. Five years later I am. I'm glad I because an LVN first & not an RN. I was still very much immature & didn't keep a job for long....

    LPN/LVN, ADN, or BSN

    OrganizedChaos replied to RunnerD1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would look into the ABSN (accelerate BSN) programs near you & then ask those questions. I'm sure there are people who have worked during their ABSN program. Good

    If you are still on orientation you have a lot to learn. Not everything is done by the book, there is not enough time in the day to do everything by the book. Of course in nursing school they teach...

    I only said that because he would have a big target on his back & might lose his job. So unless he likes his job, he should go straight to the nurses committing the errors or not say anything. But...

    OrganizedChaos replied to pedinurse003's topic in Private Duty

    I wanna say I'm shocked with the first one, but I'm not. I've heard of nurses doing that. The last PDN case I worked one of the nurses also took the patient to their
