    I insert a foley at the start of my shift because obviously I can't find 2 minutes every couple hours to urinate. Pt care must come

    To take a rehab/SNF RN job or wait it out for acute care in Sacramento... UGH! What to do

    Emergent replied to vpowervalval's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Get a job asap. There is plenty that can be learned in a non-hospital setting. Don't be a snob about LTC or any other type of nursing. I started out in a small nursing home years ago. Moved into...

    Professors who don't make their own tests...

    Emergent replied to dc1994's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So you had a difficult test, maybe didn't do so hot, and now you are thinking you need to turn in your prof because she got the questions from some standardized material online? Next time, do your...

    Anxiety rated on a 0-10 scale is what test?

    Emergent replied to puravidaLV's topic in General Nursing

    Not everyone will find a number scale suits them. Many prefer word descriptors. So, if they are in the middle of a full blown panic attack, give them a 10. If they say they are just a little anxious,...

    Help! I look young!

    Emergent replied to hella_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    It's wise to accept apologies and move on. Not too many people at this site come back to say sorry for their snide remarks. He sounds genuine to

    I was reported for something I didnt actually do. Help.

    Emergent replied to LisaF0115's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    And, I don't believe anyone who states that they use their phones mainly for looking up drugs. For most people they are a distraction, with us covertly checking our Facebook or to see if anyone...

    Help! I look young!

    Emergent replied to hella_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Lol, night nurse, you're barking up the wrong tree. You are speaking to someone approaching age 60, and one of the least vain people around. I don't wear makeup, wear a simple hairstyle, and dress...

    Would you have called out?

    Emergent replied to Angeljho's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe they should check with you ahead of time for once. They sounds so needy and demanding.

    That's where the boundary setting comes in. They have a knowledge deficit that needs to be

    Emergent replied to Angeljho's topic in General Nursing

    I think your family needs some boundary setting. They have a lot of nerve trying to make YOU feel guilty, when they were the inconsiderate

    Help! I look young!

    Emergent replied to hella_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I seriously doubt the OP came here fishing for compliments. Looking young can actually be an impediment, that's a fact. I've always looked young for my age and I very well remember the feeling way...

    Clinical educator has made me depressed.

    Emergent replied to Lina1's topic in General Students

    It sounds like you suffer from performance anxiety. I get it if I'm doing something new while being watched. I remember very well my least favorite instructor evoking that in me, just as you describe....

    Emergent replied to Jules A's topic in General Nursing

    I need advise. My nursing instructor told me that if I miss another clinical, I'll be out of the program. But, my birthday is coming up and my boyfriend wants to take me to Las Vegas. I'm really...

    Was my professor out of line?

    Emergent replied to kimmyanne02's topic in General Students

    There's nothing wrong with deferring nursing school until your young ones are in school. Many people at this site did that, including me. I started back to school when my youngest was 4, and he was 8...

    If people make me feel bad, I've been bullied

    Emergent posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    There's so much wrong with my title. Yes, we have every right to our feelings. I feel sad, I feel bad, I am happy, I feel great! But, to blame others for our emotional state is a cop out. Yes,...
