I am almost a year in as Dialysis RN. I want to take the CDN certification after a year because the hospital I work at will reimburse and also offer salary increase for certification. I want to start studying now so I can take it when I am ready. Wou...

Your coworkers will probably not care and at the same time gossip. Thats just inevitable. 8 years ago is a very long time and who cares? You have been stable since, changed for the better. People change, ie; people get married and divorce within a y...

I've been an ICU nurse for 4 years. Mostly worked in medical ICU. The units were usually mixed of dirty and clean and surgical ICU pts sometimes. It was a mix of many kinds. The thing is I've never done is balloons and open hearts and impellas ans ot...

Nursing is my only degree. I am currently in a MSN Informatics program. Taking my first class. I thought I had done enough research but now I am seeing and reading negative things, especially with the current school I am in. It's all online. I'm not ...

Doctors do it! A LOT! Why can't nurses? Nurses, we need representation! Nursing field as a whole, worldwide needs to change this stoic, martyrism, strict as a nun attitude. We shouldnt hate or feel different toward nurses who are active on soci...

Basically, I left my last hospital job because of covid and other personal reasons. I recently got an emaik for a compliance exit survey. It has a specific ID so its not anonymous like I would like it to be. I wanted to report about this ...

It was problem. I would avoid that person as much as possible. It went on for a year. I told coworkers. I wasnt the only victim. Some even tolerate it. Apparently its an expected thing. Anyways, I'm not there anymore. Out of sight out of ...

I guess Im just gonna leave it alone. Im so active for other people who are victims of sexual harassment but I cant do it for myself. Im just gonna try and move on.

I decided to resign at my job... I left properly, gave 2 weeks notice and everything. I was just fed up. The workplace already sucks to begin with, but then with everything associated with the pandemic, working through the pandemic and getting sick w...

So I recently started a new rn job. I just found out that my salary is only $0.5 higher than new grads in the hospital I work at. I have almost 2yrs experience. Suddenly I dont feel like working anymore. I'm so discouraged right now. Is 0.5 differenc...

I wonder if I change to part time or prn after at least 6 months to a year. Will there be a renegotiation of salary then?

Well the new grads that i talked with said that they didnt sign a 2 yr commitment or something like that. They are free to leave and if they left before 6 months, they are not hireable again by the same corporation. I don't know how Im going to fee...

Im trying to move on in my career journey but Im just a little nervous and scared. Ive been unemployed for 2 weeks now and now im enjoying my short break but eventually, I have to find a job. So, i recently resigned from an icu after being there for ...

How should I fill out spaces that asks for the director's or anyone in managements' contact? Im applying for a few positions and there are spaces that ask for their contacts. I dont want them to be called...

Isnt agency work the same as traveling? If its something else how can i get into that? Thanks

I am from the south... cant say exactly where. Im paranoid someone might discover who iam. I am sick and tired of the unsafe and unfair working conditions at my workplace. Its a MICU but we get other cases sometimes like CV or Neuro. Here we get tri...

I make brain sheets for every pt. It was parts in neuro that was supposed to be q2 Its tough to execute time management skills when they reassign me to different patients mid shift. They do it to me almost every week. I still like the ICU just not t...

So, i work in an ICU. It is always busy and were always tripled. The only time we actually have one to one is when theres a balloon pump or impella. The rest doesnt really count. Recently, i have been notfied of my lateness in charting and sometimes...

My friends tell me that i should wait to get out until im a year in. Since this my first real experience. But i think im about to reach my limit.

I guess you can say it like that. I went home thinking i completed everything. But i forgot to click on 3 cells on a little area. Everything else, no problem. Its not what this stems from. This is more like a cry for help. Like I want to get out.

What is an at-will state?

Its expected to have 3 patients. There have been times a nurse has 2 patients and one of them had an IABP. DKa and other serious issues that should be 1 to 1 doesnt even count. We expect to get 3 patients and to have 4 in a shift is not even a sur...

I am helping my mom renew her Fl, RN license. Apparently, they have a new system for renewals and whatever online. Her CEU is complete and shes ready to renew but we cant renew it because there is some kind of flaw to their new system and it wouldnt ...

I want to get the CCRN certificate but I dont know what took I should get there are many things that pop up on google when i try to search but I want to know if anyone knows the most recommended study tool that has recent info and reliable passing ra...

The gash is in his head. His hands are cuffed not his head. Unlike other hospitals in bigger cities, local ERs do not have a really comprehensive security system like scanners at the entrance and private police officers, and outsiders cant just get ...
