    traumaRUs replied to nightengalegoddess's topic in Post Graduate Students

    This isn't something new - been going on for many years. There are several sides to this: many of us who were very experienced nurses prior to becoming APNs feel that direct-entry APNs might be...

    Discrimination & Whistle blowing - Would you hire this nurse again?

    traumaRUs replied to SunshineSmile's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Please don't become an APN with the idea that its M-F! My concern is that you are suit happy. Has nothing to do with your religion - you knew your requirements going into the job. To sue because...

    What I've found since being an APN and working with docs is that I must be concrete. To say "I'm unhappy" won't cut it in most practices. When I've had issues, I write them down, I gather the stats...
