    Could the reason I got fired from my last job affect becoming a nurse

    Emergent replied to Allie94's topic in Nursing Career

    At least you weren't intimate with a resident! I think it depends on the people involved. If you have to explain it, I think the no excuses version you gave here was excellent. If HR is...

    Thinking about leaving first RN job

    Emergent replied to Guest 1052832's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know why some nurses make such a big deal out of working at a level 1 trauma center, especially at the beginning of their careers. I think a lot of it is a status symbol. There is so much...

    New RN, and hate nursing already

    Emergent replied to FNPStudentLife's topic in General Nursing

    I have not had an experience like that. Either you are feeding into these behaviors in some way without realizing it, or the hospital you work for is truly bottom of the barrel. I did 2 cases for...

    Aromatherapy

    Emergent replied to BMitchellRN's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Good cultural sensitivity on their part! It's important to acknowledge, tolerate, and include diversity in beliefs and worldviews. I was taught that gypsies value a container of soil beneath a...

    Fired New-grad, Jumps Into FNP Program?

    Emergent replied to Breathing16's topic in First Year After Licensure

    When she's in $200,000 non-bankruptable debt, tell her, please don't run to Uncle Sam to bail her out. And, don't take care of any of my loved ones. If she fails as a nurse practitioner, is medical...

    Teenager with seizures kept from school?

    Emergent posted a topic in School

    I am in the process of finding a renter for a home I own. It's almost similar to triaging patients in the ER. You have to sift through a lot of bogus stories, and plate after plate heaped with B.S.....

    Everyday Nurse problems

    Emergent replied to babarfirasat's topic in General Nursing

    I AM old. Instead of skipping the last day, and leaving everyone short staffed, I recommend unfriending from Facebook AND BLOCKING THEIR SORRY
