    How can I word this to my manager when she asks me to pick up extra?

    Emergent replied to Nurse4lifewithparrots's topic in General Nursing

    Here's how you word it "No thank you" or "No thank you, I have plans.". Even if your plans are just to lay on the couch all day and watch

    I was deemed an unsafe student in nursing school and it affects my confidence as a nurse now

    Emergent replied to dsaprog's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's hard for us to really judge this situation on an online forum. Maybe getting a counselor might be a good idea? That way, you could go into details that that are impossible to delve into...

    BLS 100% Online?

    Emergent posted a topic in General Nursing

    My BLS is expired and I would like to update it. I'd rather just do 100% online if possible. I noticed on the AHA website, they offer a blended course. I'm seeing some advertised elsewhere online,...

    BLS 100% Online?

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks, maybe I'll do that after all. I've done it that way before. I'm not currently employed but considering getting a per diem job if I can. I'm fully retired but might want to still do a little...

    MD is wanting me to complete a state School physical forms

    Emergent replied to Sweetbaby86's topic in General Nursing

    You can always talk to the doctor with the form in front of you and ask him the questions that you don't know the answer to, and then ask him to sign it right then and

    Prior employer restricting EPIC access for new job/employer

    Emergent replied to pastudent's topic in General Nursing

    I've always given 2 weeks notice. I think 4 weeks is more appropriate for a salaried position. I left a per diem job while I was on orientation once, without notice. I had another job at the...

    Healthcare in Mexico

    Emergent posted a topic in General Nursing

    My first husband has lived in Mexico for a while. He is 80 years old, he was quite a bit older than me when we married. He lives in Oaxaca. I think he basically lives there because he didn't...

    The ex is out of the hospital. Our son is getting him set up with a better living situation, where the landlord is nearby and speaks fluent English, and there are people who can help an elderly...

    President Biden thread

    Emergent replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Actually I don't read the political forums here, this is an anomaly. But I did see some clips of the debate, and what we already knew is clearly very obvious from the president's performance. But...

    President Biden thread

    Emergent replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    On all levels. It hasn't hit bottom yet though. How we are living now though, is unsustainable. From materialism, massive debt, breakdown of the families, failure to properly educate children,...

    President Biden thread

    Emergent replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Well, the U.S. is clearly in a societal decline that is something that government really can't control, and maybe is making worse. I choose to focus closer to home on the things I do have influence...

    This isn't the first time this has happened. Woodrow Wilson and Ronald Reagan come to mind. Obviously, the country keeps humming along, run by big corporations, special interests, etc......

    Nursing is Toxic Video

    Emergent posted a topic in General Nursing

    Despite the overly dramatic title, this is a very professionally presented video detailing the negative human dynamics of a new to the ICU orientee. This nurse really spells out the social realities...

    Being a nurse in Ohio with a medical marijuana card? HELP!!

    Emergent replied to Sunflower1700's topic in Nurses Recovery

    What is needed is a more accurate test for THC. It's ridiculous to limit the off duty, legal use by nurses. After all, if you were taking a pain pill that was legitimately prescribed, they wouldn't...

    My patient doesn't want to work with me at all and it's hurtful

    Emergent replied to dsaprog's topic in General Nursing

    You are going to have occasional faux pas that angers a patient. The best thing to do is to apologize as soon as possible. He might be a cranky old man, but as detailed above, you didn't read the...
