    Interviewing Registered Nurses Online

    OrganizedChaos replied to dest1ny99's topic in General Nursing

    There is a reason why your instructor gave you this assignment. It wasn't so you could go to the Internet & try to find someone who you believe is a nurse. Interviews are done in person. You can...

    Looking for non bedside options

    OrganizedChaos replied to LizerRN's topic in General Nursing

    I would suggest home heath/PDN. PDN is not as reliable schedule wise as working at the hospital but you can pick & choose when you want to work. My husband works 12 hour nocs so I know it is...

    New nurse and employment

    OrganizedChaos replied to sansleep's topic in General Nursing

    A) You can lie about not having worked but future employers can find out your past work history. It's best to start off on a good foot & be honest. B) It is not as easy as you think to lose your...

    Would it be Wrong?

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

    Having been a psych patient myself, I know that things are very confusing for you right now & you want to find comfort in something/someone. But I can guarantee that the nurse was just being...

    OrganizedChaos replied to LadyFree28's topic in General Nursing

    I want it removed as soon as possible. It sucks so bad. I'm just nervous about getting the renal ultrasound because if something pops up on that my OB wont dig any further. The more it happens the...

    OrganizedChaos replied to LadyFree28's topic in General Nursing

    I'm so sorry but I am glad you are better now. I went to the hospital hoping they would do an ultrasound & if it was bad enough, remove it. But they didn't even do an ultrasound. Which I thought...

    What to do next?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Talka_RN's topic in Nursing Career

    Did you not have to write papers in your BSN program? I surely hope your papers sound better than your online presence, it is not spitting out a good image. As for working holidays, you're a nurse....

    Got into LVN school. Found out about my 27 year old DUI. Will they yank me now?

    OrganizedChaos replied to tjcnurse2b's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I second this. They actually reply pretty fast to emails. I was surprised because I heard all about how BONs are notoriously slow at responding. When/if you do send an email, be serious & include...

    Thank you. I will keep everyone updated. My OB was so sure it is kidney issues but I beg to differ. I couldn't persuade him to get an ultrasound on my gallbladder. Maybe if my renal ultrasound comes...

    Thank you. I hope it isn't either but as long as I eat bland food my body is ok. So that is what leads me to believe it is gallbladder

    Nursing GPA

    OrganizedChaos replied to sm818's topic in General Students

    That is not true of all community college nursing programs. Nursing schools are incredibly competitive & a 2.9 GPA might not be enough to get in, even if the school says the minimum is 2.5. There...

    I have never heard of that definition of the word. I guess nowadays people are using it in a different way. I don't know, all I know is that is the definition & use of the word I have heard as of...
