    why do many MAs and CNAs call themselves nurses?

    RNsRWe replied to murseforever's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    And if your State is one that has a legal protection for the title of "nurse", then the nursing homes (and the people wearing the tags) are breaking the law. The protection of the title for use only...

    Question about Pre-Employment drug screens

    RNsRWe replied to WhoSaidThat's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    WOULD they report you? Sure, if you hold a nursing license and test positive (doesn't matter if you're not yet employed with them). WILL they report? Don't know. They have every right to do so,...

    why do many MAs and CNAs call themselves nurses?

    RNsRWe replied to murseforever's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    How about posting a question to her asking if she's an RN or LPN/LVN? Which license does she hold? And see where it goes from there

    why do many MAs and CNAs call themselves nurses?

    RNsRWe replied to murseforever's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I wonder if this clueless individual would be so cavalier if she were to seek counsel from an experienced trial litigator and instead finds herself face-to-face with someone who "carries herself" like...

    Nclex 3rd try

    RNsRWe replied to tameen's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I wonder when California is going to get with the program and join the QR bandwagon that MOST States have done. Well, at this point all you can really do is wait it out. With any luck, your last 60...

    Nclex 3rd try

    RNsRWe replied to tameen's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    "used all my time"....did you run out of time at 180 questions? If so, you needed to be above the passing standard for the last 60 questions in order to have passed. If you meant you used the full 6...

    Sept 2015:Passed at 75Q with 6 to 8 SATAS

    RNsRWe replied to alyanssaramos's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Some NCLEX myths to share: SATA is nothing more than an alternative format of questioning. Same as multiple choice, drag/drop. Means zipola; trying to read anything into their presence or absence is...

    i think I failed the nclex shut off at 76

    RNsRWe replied to Jamielynn874_'s topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Well, first thing is you must read your CPR when it arrives: it is the basis for you to plan a new study strategy. How can anyone recommend what you should do, if you don't know where it went wrong?...

    The Nurse on the Other Side

    This incorrect usage of a word/ misspelling brought to mind SO many jokes....but I imagine I'd get banned for posting them!

    Still trying to figure out what "writing in a dismissive and hurried manner" actually looks like. Hurried....yeah, I write fast....I AM in a hurry much of the time. This is now a problem for a...

    The Nurse on the Other Side

    You are using a story from the Bible to support your position on this "article"? Seriously? Once you start using biblical stories as supporting facts......Debate

    The Nurse on the Other Side

    RNsRWe replied to sheilagood52's topic in General Nursing

    Here's my thoughts on this: When someone refers to another person negatively because of what they "imagined" was said, "thinks" may have been said in the hall (outside hearing range)...."imagines"...

    RNsRWe replied to studentnicu's topic in General Nursing

    My thought is along the lines of blondy: there should not be a visitor or family member there CONSTANTLY. There ought to be a moment they leave for the cafeteria, a coffee run, something. Either the...

    Nurse Intern Salary

    RNsRWe replied to ClaireMoe's topic in General Nursing

    As RoseQueen said, this is nearly impossible to answer for you. A better indicator of how much you can expect to be paid are others who work in the facility you are interested in, and the HR...

    Can a doctor "order" a nurse to not assess something?

    RNsRWe replied to SilleLu's topic in General Nursing

    Worked on a med-surg floor where the standard of care/policy would have us taking vitals Q4h, then qshift as a patient moved through the post-op period of days. Had a doc order "vitals daily only"....

    I took my nclex but it ended and I don't know where I stopped

    RNsRWe replied to zygz13's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You are focusing on something entirely irrelevant. If you received the minimum number of questions (75 for RN), and the exam stopped then, you either did very well or very poorly. Really that...

    Third time taking nclexpn

    RNsRWe replied to jchevez91's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    What do you mean by you "went back to school without passing my NCLEX-PN"? Are you in an RN program, but have not passed the NCLEX for PN

    RNsRWe replied to wldk0204's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Are you here in the US now? What State did you take the NCLEX for? It has been more than 48 hours since you tested; if the State participates in Quick Results, you can find out with certainty if you...

    I would suggest that in order for him to take all his marbles and go home, he must have been in possession of all his marbles in the first place. And I'm not entirely convinced of that as a

    fetching the doctor's tea

    RNsRWe replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Exactly! No provider lives in his office, never taking a single break, nor taking a single day off from work. For the times when there's going to be a stretch of hours or days (like weekends, and...

    Ok, then.....in which case, there is no point in discussing this further (did we actually discuss it at all?). You believe it is unreasonable to expect a provider to take a break during the workday...
