Let me start this article by saying "I'm going to be charge nurse soon with zero confidence and limited social skills." I'm currently working in med-surg floor for the past 2+ years. Recently, I told my manager that I want to transfer nights since I ...

I am RN working in a local hospital taking care of one pt that will be doing CT with contrast. When I drew Creatinine level per protocol, lab tech called me about the GFR being high and needs 1L NS infusion pre and post procedure. Thats when my predi...

Good day everyone, first off I will start this whole story of having my first job in home health agency. I am on my 5th month and next month, I will be qualified for supervisory visit. At first I was a PRN admiting nurse so I looked for a job that ca...

Hi guys! I've been working in a LTC facility over a month now and I have problems dealing with my co-workers. I feel that I am alienated not only to them but also to my family. I have a hard time in my work since its busy and I have to deal with 20...

Hi Guys!! Lets not make this a very long topic. I will make it short. very short. Anyways, I have a PRN Home Health Nursing job which I dont really like but I am having fun at the moment. Going to places I've never been before is scary at first but i...

I have a volunteer experience in a hospital but its still pretty early. I started volunteering last December and I like working there to. I love the place, A LOT BETTER THAN Home Health. Thank you! You gave me an idea how to work on my resume. I am a...

Do you mean that it is okay to place my current prn job in work history in every application? and place my boss as a contact person?

I just recently pass my boards and just got the HH job. How many months before I could place my current position in my resume. I am really confuse right now because I want another income to support myself and being a PRN nurse will starve me and my ...

Thank you for your wonderful comments. I need to clarify something. Home Health is the job that I dont really like but learned to love it every single day. I decided that I will not place reference from my current job because it is new and they dont ...

I just recently passed my NCLEX last June and since then, I applied anywhere. I have 5 interviews in total but none of them called back. I was interviewed with Maryview more than a week ago and they said that the interview is the greatest so far. I a...

Hi guys! I am currently looking for a job for more than 2 months. I could not land a single interview and I was thinking to apply for the same company who fired me last August. I worked there for a month and got fired for self reported med error and ...

Hi guys! It is now my second month being jobless after I was fired by my first job. It is depressing because I have been in several interviews already and they did not call me back. I envy my cousins who graduated NCP and I am pretty sure she will h...

I will try to visit the Carrington Facility in Chesapeake this Monday and see what I can get afterwards. I doubt Home Health will hire new grad. I think they require at least 1 year experience in HH or hospice. I am freaking out fellow nurses. I m so...

I worked in Bayside Health and Rehab Center.. so I cannot get in any MFA Facilities anymore but they said to me that once I have experience, I can apply and work there. I tried Bon Secours but no good. I always denied in Bon Secours and also in Chesa...

I was fired because of med error. I gave the medicine at the wrong time. The patient is stable without adverse reactions. It is self reported error and first offense.

First of all, I was fired 3 weeks ago from my first job. I worked there for a month and fired because of med error. If anyone of you wondering the welfare of the patient, I tell you - she is SUPER OKAY! She doesn't have any adverse effects. Her vital...

I am trying to apply for clinical preceptorship in all hospitals here. I dont know if I can get in but its worth to try, isnt it?

Yup. They suspend me first before I got fired. They signed me for something after my med error that I understood what I've done and no education/remediation. After I was suspend, they said that I was incompetent and so on and the final blow is they f...

Thanks for your support guys. I am crying while reading your post. Thank you! Thank you!

Thank you so much! You lift up my spirits.

I hope so. Right now, I really depresses me. Ever since I graduated, I never had time to relax and enjoy the world. I try not to be picky in choosing jobs. Thank you very much.

Thanks. I will. I will not let this be my bad ass downfall. I stumbled and I will get up.

As far as I observed, there is no visible s/s of adverse reaction. I reported it to the supervisor right away and good thing that the physician, who ordered it, is present so I think they managed to correct it. My fault was the time the med is given ...

The patient is not in bad shape but I was fired anyway. Too bad its my first job. I am currently job searching which depresses me every single day. I wish I did not reported that one.

Maybe. Right now, I just received a call from the DON that she gonna meet me up this thursday that means I haven't work last thursday til now. I will just enjoy it than sulking in the corner and crying cause it will not help me and I will use that ti...
