    guest769224 replied to mep7296's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  5. Why do some practices prefer PAs to NPs?

    guest769224 replied to mep7296's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Because schools have realized APRN is a desirable profession and a lot of people are applying to become one. So requirements are far and few and admission is given to anybody. Basically, it's a huge...

  9. Nevada New Grad

    guest769224 replied to 90sKidSayWhat's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Hi. Las Vegas area isn't too friendly/welcoming to new grad RN's. I'm not sure why, it's odd. There are some big players in town: UHS- Valley Health System HCA Dignity Health UMC trauma center...

  10. Older Student, Unprofessional Nurse During Clinical

    guest769224 replied to Nurse Magnolia's topic in General Students

    No, I do not find it ironic. Nor do I categorize her comments as "mean". I agree with most of the content. The only thing I personally would change is "most nurses", to "some nurses". That's my...

  11. Older Student, Unprofessional Nurse During Clinical

    guest769224 replied to Nurse Magnolia's topic in General Students

    You will receive a lot of responses on this site stating you are a student, and to get over it. Or that you don't know how it is to be a nurse yet. Personally I'd pay little attention to those. My...

    guest769224 replied to BSN16's topic in General Nursing

  15. ICU Tech Job

    guest769224 replied to jmtravers3's topic in General Nursing

    Exciting. I worked quite a few years as an ICU tech. My advice... Be helpful to the nurses in what they ask. Be very careful when turning patients, protect their airway if on ventilator, watch every...

  17. Transition from ER RN to Tele RN

    guest769224 replied to EDRNBSN2011's topic in General Nursing

    That would be an unusual transition, but you could give it a shot. What about trying for a Cath Lab or special procedures? Maybe OR? Sometimes those areas pay a higher wage differential, and you...

  21. Neuro or General ICU?

    guest769224 replied to shasbus's topic in Critical Care

    Go with general! You'll be glad you did. Most general ICU's get some neuro patients thrown in there, too. Neuro is too narrow of specialty. Plus, the constant CT scans, Q1/hr neuro checks, fidgety...
