sounds like you might be experiencing some jealousy due to the issues at hand, maybe you should consider returning to school to improve your self esteem

Okay stop attacking the RN supervisor. If you want to help train her, because the bottom line is education is key that is why I am a RN that is BSN train, howeve I am have now returned to school to pursue my MSN as family nurse pracitioner. I know it will be some years before I complete but I will be educated further. I further my education so I can have those opportunities, rather than take the easy way out.

I disagree. You should earn based on your skills, and qualifications and responsibility level along with other issues being looked at as well. I wont work for pennies on the dollar and believe with education, earnings should continue to grow. Please! why go to school to be a nurse. Just volunteer your time and leave others alone.

Not to be brash, however if you have been a nurse for that many years and with your educational background, the question is why are you only making 32 hr? I would try management jobs because I am a true believer that nurses should be getting their due pay. We put up with so much. I have only been a RN for 5 years and now work as a Nurse manager in substance abuse. GOOD LUCK TO YOU, BUT YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY BE MAKING MORE.

Hello I dont want to be gross or disturbing, but let me say. Money matters, if I was not getting paid the amt that I am for all that we have to take, I would not be bothered. I chose the field for other reasons, however Money is my primary concern, because in the end I have to live and take care of my family, So for those of you that money does not matter great!!! but I am a very professional nurse and time is money. Sorry, I think we need more males in the field who look at the bottom line. Nursing is a business and we need to learn how to market ourselves. As a Consultant, I make 50.00 and up an hour, however this is not full time. My full time, I make over 70,000 yr with great benefits, could be better, I am an associate degree prepared RN who is returning to school to become a nurse practioner soon. Nurses stop selling yourselves short. If facilities dont want to pay leave when you get the chance for higher salary. This is your mind body and nursing is stressful. After saying all that I would like to say I am a very caring person, but if we dont start demanding better working conditions and salary, the doctors will continue to gain and us nurses well we get whats left.

Thank you for sharing, your story brought an enlightenment to me, although very sad, and I know the person will reap what he has sown, for the universe has a way of repaying us. God bless you and your family. I was touched by the memories your little brother left you. He would want you to live a very very happy life. Have a wonderful life.

I just made a drug error. I was following non-license personnel, and the mar was written somewhat confusing. Librium was being titrated down. I gave 2 instead of 1 I am becoming concerned because following non -license personnel is not good and there is only so much you can do to ensure safety.

I donot either

Thanks for the truth. I am considering doing prn at a jail for PHS. Do you know of them?

This is just what the witch want you to think, this makes her feel powerful no, you become vocal ask questions, and if she cant tell you ask her supervisor why not, or if need be find another job. Honey you are an RN DO WHAT WE DO, TAKE CONTROL.

change your schedule, that is too much work 60 hours a week helllllllllloooooooooo are you awake???????? or did your heart stop from exhaustion. honey quittttttt!!!! you are to young to get stuck

I am pretty sure, if they knew how stuffy you are, about someone picking up an application in street clothes, that would be very happy the application got lost in transit, no one wants to work for anual people

I agree

Thanks I AM GOING TO PRINT THIS AND TRY TO MEMORIZE

I think that nursing is a calling. I believe that it is a privledge to care for the sick. I believe some how this makes us closer to jesus, that he finds this good in his eyes. I think you are suppose to feel or otherwise you would not be human. Those patients were lucky to have someone such as yourself to care for them. DONT WORRY you will become stronger. God does not give us more than we can bear. God bless you. I hope that when It is my time to go that I will have a caring nurse such as yourself
