  1. New Grad RN- moving to AZ

    mrsboots87 replied to Leonine21's topic in Arizona Nursing

    If you work in a hospital, most of them lay $26-30. LTC is all over the place though ranging from below $25 to around $30. Home health and corrections is kind of middle of the road as well. Will you...

  2. Failing block 4 Maricopa Community College

    mrsboots87 replied to Bocanegra's topic in General Students

    If you fail a second time, you will have to either restart the program completely by applying through the wait list, or you can take the advanced placement HESI and come in at block 3. But with the...

  3. "I thought they liked me..."

    mrsboots87 replied to Marshall1's topic in General Nursing

    I was once literally told by a unit manager "I really like you. I will be having a talk with HR today after my last couple interviews and you are at the top of the list. Expect a call in the next...

  4. Combative Patients/Body cams/Walkie talkies

    mrsboots87 replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    OP, it appears that just about every thread you post is you putting the cart before the horse. More like you already built the cart before the horse was conceived lol. Its obvious you are VERY new to...

  5. Combative Patients/Body cams/Walkie talkies

    mrsboots87 replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    How is wanting my lady parts and/or breasts to not be on video during care suspicious? Is this you implying I am an abusive patient.... I just assisted with putting a flexiseal in a patients rectum...

  6. Combative Patients/Body cams/Walkie talkies

    mrsboots87 replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I also would never choose to work for a faculity that records all care in a body cam. I have seen ICUs that have cams in the room for patient monitoring while nurses are out of the room. But outside...

  7. Combative Patients/Body cams/Walkie talkies

    mrsboots87 replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I highly doubt they were wearing body cams. I personally would never go to a hospital (by choice) knowing they recoded my care. What you describe sounds like possibly Voceras or some other...

  8. Critical Thinking

    mrsboots87 replied to Kooky Korky's topic in General Nursing

    I chose not to fluff my answer up with a paragraph long of a$$patting in order to "nicely" convey that this site is not a Google search and answers are not generally just given. If this person is not...

  9. Critical Thinking

    mrsboots87 replied to Kooky Korky's topic in General Nursing

    I of course know as I am a nurse. The way you phrased the question makes it appear to be a homework question seeing as we are in the start of the new nursing program semesters right now when homework...

  10. Can i become a nurse If I take foundations of math 12 in highschool?

    mrsboots87 replied to Alex Conner's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know. Have you contacted some programs in your area to see if they even care to look at what classes are on your high school

  11. What's Your Sign Baby?

    mrsboots87 replied to AutumnApple's topic in General Nursing

    One of my jobs is in LTC with little old men with dementia so..... Move been groped, kissed on the cheek while they were aiming for the mouth, been scooped, you name it. I always tell them it's in...

  12. Am I wrong for thinking that this APRN was wrong?...

    mrsboots87 replied to bekind_andtrue's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Always always always look stuff up when you don't know. I personaly hate seroquel use for most of my residents at my LTC job. Most of them end up with sever EPS symptoms and the psych NP will early...

  13. Critical Thinking

    mrsboots87 replied to Kooky Korky's topic in General Nursing

    We don't do your homework for

  14. 3 main nursing assessments and 3 nursing interventions for asthma attacks

    mrsboots87 replied to Patrick Villamor's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    This site is not yahoo answers. You cannot just type a question and expect others to do your homework for

  15. Cleveland Clinic Tuition Reimbursement

    mrsboots87 replied to CR27's topic in General Nursing

    Like a credit card. They send collection letters and eventually dong your credit and sell the debt to a collection agency. It would also effectively blackball you from EVER working for them again....

  16. Is adequate rest the most important factor in enjoying night shift?

    mrsboots87 replied to Hmfog's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the PP. I'm a night person through and through. I don't usually feel physically ill or overly tired unless I have a very busy day after working a night. I can switch to a day schedule for...

  17. Is 32 to late to go to a nursing program ?(ADN)

    mrsboots87 replied to Samyong's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    LOL! No. 31 is still quite young in this day and age. I graduated with a few 50+ people and work with a few nurses 10+ years older than that. As long as you are in typical 30s health, you will be fine...

  18. Nurse without middle name

    mrsboots87 replied to xte777's topic in Nurse Registration

    I understand that where you are from, this is important and may be a big deal. Just know I am not downplaying how that might make you feel. But it here in the US it's very common for children to be...

  19. Nurse without middle name

    mrsboots87 replied to xte777's topic in Nurse Registration

    What exactly do you mean by "illegitimate?" Like you were conceived out of wedlock? I know in the US employers don't care. And a middle name is not required. Only a first and last. I've met quite a...

  20. interview ideas

    mrsboots87 replied to mbarakhan18's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    While asking questions shows interest in the facility, there are no "right" questions to ask. Just what you actually want to know or it will sound like you practiced too hard. Asking how long the...

  21. lithium carbonate

    mrsboots87 replied to sweetypie40's topic in General Students

    Way do you think the answer is? What do the texts say? This is a pretty cut and dry knowledge question that can most likely be answere by reading your pharmacology and/psych

  22. New grad, do not feel challenged at all. Help?

    mrsboots87 replied to RNinCali15's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Your non-nursing experience does nothing for you as a new grad to your management. Your attitude sounds terrible and you sound incredibly overconfident. I'm sure the care you have provided in the last...

  23. Judge Sends Man to Prison Because He Can't Pay Hospital Bill

    mrsboots87 replied to SunnyPupRN's topic in Nursing News

    This title is incredibly misleading. His jailing had nothing to do with his inability to pay his hospital bill. He was jailed for committing fraud. Writing s check when you know there is no money in...

  24. CNA scope of practice issue on my unit

    mrsboots87 replied to nurseredd's topic in General Nursing

    I guess I meant they can't just pull one to put a new one in or

  25. Does anyone work PRN?

    mrsboots87 replied to BSN16's topic in General Nursing

    The majority of facilities do not hire new grads as PRN. Usually experienced nurses get hired so they do not need 3-6-12 month long orientation periods. Usually computer training, facility policy and...
