I'm trying to network as much as I can....I'm Just not sure if I've got a good thing here since I have nothing to compare it too. Typing on a computer 6hours out of my day. fellow California RN

You seem set on where you stand. I already saw your side, but can see theirs as well. You made no mention of a patient actually turning you away so maybe this is solely a coworker issue. I read this late at night . Maybe they're just used to asking ahead for male patients for years. I don't know how long you've been on the unit or they have. To stop it, speak with your supervisor. If that is unsuccessful, the next step would be HR. fellow California RN

Nclex4000 and Pearson review, I swear by those two nclex aids fellow California RN

Some pts felt like they could not speak up because they did not want to be rude but were uncomfortable to be honest with being exposed. What if she told that male nurse she wanted a female nurse, but there was no option. Then One might feel uncomfortable for the remainder if the shift. Its better to indirectly offer. It doesn't take anything away from your skills as a nurse. They are protecting you from lawsuits even if the help is not asked for. fellow California RN

But I also used nclex4000 .... I did questions from it every day and it made the questions on nclex seem easier then what was on nclex4000. fellow California RN

It helped me, good luck! fellow California RN

I did what most new grads would do, take the first job available. It was a fortunate opportunity to start off in the office. I do paper work and check to see what we're charting is true with the patient. Sort of quality control. I'm not on the floor. I do hang or start an IV every so often and assess someone if the charge is on break.... But I feel my skills are going to waste. Sure I check everyone's charting and put in care plans, but idk if it's for me. Should I just be glad I get to bypass standing on my feet? Just sort of confused if I'm losing out on floor experience. fellow California RN
