I can see an argument for option one or two here in the absence of other information. Option three looks like it was quoted straight out of a textbook. If the nurse in this scenario chose option one, it was because the nurse had the information to j...
It is hard to clearly make out what the OP is saying. Really vague IMO. I want to make assumptions based on what is missing, but I know I would tear the OP apart if I did. OP, this was your second week on your own. If you want to put this job on your...
Look at CA BON's reporting policies for license revocation. I am willing to bet that if you really wanted to pursue your nursing career, you could get away with it in another state, or another country if it came down to it. Before jumping the gun on...
If a record is expunged and a background check wouldn't acknowledge it, why disclose it? Best route is to consult with a lawyer familiar with these checks on whether or not an expunged record with surface and then make a decision. Disclosing when the...
Who cares if you "lose those skills." You don't need those skills for your easy job. And why would you give up such an easy job to do floor nursing? I call these #firstworldproblems If you eventually move over to floor nursing, you'll have orientatio...
All is fair in love and war... and job interviews Think this one through. If there is a complaint against your license, you should find a job ASAP before the complaint surfaces. If the employer has spent time and money orienting / training you, they ...

And what if you don't report it? My money is on the employer not reporting this incident to the BON. Meaning that you are the only one who can shoot yourself here. Either way, your license, your choice. I am not suggesting anything here other than f...

Nursing school: tell them what they want to hear (especially during clinical practice) New job: kiss the right asses and suck up to whoever has influence
I've found they go on sale right when the weather starts to take a turn for the worse. If the OP waits until November / December, it will be a buyer's market.
My understanding through having read many peer reviewed papers is that you must be a young, white and middle class female in order to worship the deities Ana and Mia. This seems conflicting.
As the above poster stated, two years of steady employment is the standard for getting a mortgage. You might find some lenders to be flexible on this, or you might have a staff member trying to reach a quota who might give you the benefit of the doub...
But remember that this division could be your ticket to deferring the work to someone else. I haven't tried this, but if I had a Christian patient that was very strong about his or her views, and I claimed to be a Muslim, I would expect that this pat...
I was drawn to this career by a close friend. This friend explained to me that every two weeks, you would receive a piece of paper which you could take to the bank and exchange it for this green paper which you could exchange for material goods. I lo...
Obviously the system is broken and abused, but the path of least resistance is to let it continue. I don't want to argue with Drugs Bunny every time he or she is angling for another dose of drugs. If the person isn't presenting as over-sedated or rea...
Being disrespectful =/= violence
Uttering threats = violence
If I tell a co-worker to hurry the **** up or if I tell a co-worker that they are useless, neither of those things is "violence." Yes it is disrespectful, but if you walk out afte...

CNA is the harder job. I've worked with a lot of people that have made that transition and they all say the same thing. Only worth it if the increase in pay is significant enough to justify the leap. Then there's the $15 minimum wage issue which I wo...
What is the base pay. "$5 less" doesn't paint the whole picture. Will this affect your ability to live an adequate life? If you average 40 hours per week, $5 x 40 = 200 x 52 = 10,400 x marginal tax rate = what you are missing out on If the $5 differe...
