Thank you Commuter!

Thank you to AN for all the support. I signed up for a job in a LTC facility. My very first and dream job. After applications to hospitals were submitted and waiting for a call, I got a job. While submitting the application online, I received the...

Hi Paleogirl: " Apply to an RN to BSN program and pursue my BSN. 2. Begin volunteering immediately in nursing related areas such as hospice, the VA, the major hospitals in this area, and maybe even behavioral health facilities (I've always had an ...

Hang in there, I know the feeling. I am in the same situation. I know something will come up. Best wishes!

Hi guys; I was an ADN student. I had to stop classes for family health reasons and find a job. Nursing First Job Hunt Assistance is very helpful. I have several places where to apply but can't help feeling nervous. I passed the Boards in Spring. ...

Thank you NightCrow; I have submitted applications to hospitals with no answer so far. I am checking indeed.com but most of the employers want LVN/LPN with experience. I will keep knocking on doors as TheCommuter wisely recommended. Thank you!:)

Thank you TheCommuter.

I love your story. We were told at school; "Think of your patients as if they are your family" but nothing hits harder than when your family is ill. Treasure all those moments shared with your father, I am positive they can give you strength and i...

To All Nurses: What are your thoughts whether or not everyone should have access to healthcare. We are working on a proyect. I have done some research. I already have the points. but I would like to know your opinion. It is a controversial e inte...

I know it is a heated topic. It is hard to get to the point when emotions come afloat. We as nurses are patient advocate, we also work on health promotion and moreover we strive to do good for others. Well, referring to "Healthcare for all" I am not ...

TehKittehsMeow welcome to AN. I am also new here. It is great to have great nurses who share, advice and in general provide such an inspiration to others. I wish you the best!:):):)

I am a Nusing Student, eager to learn. Can someone explain the difference in RN working in LTC and RN working in hospitals. Do they have some geriatric training (besides the one at school) before starting the job? or the training comes later? Thank...

Hello! I am trying to understand this case, if there is a vent and administrations of an anesthetic, then the breathing is the mayor concern. If there is RBCs 2.73 due to the loss of blood then that will be the second mayor issue. What are the BUN ...

Hi Shayboo; I don't know if it is too late to respond, but here is my suggestion: The main deal for a research paper is to find reliable sources, CINHAL is great, so it is medline or CDC sites. In your textbook look for cases similar to your topic....

Help is appreciated guys. I going back an forth trying to decide which is first: Innefective tissue perfusion or Impaired physical mobility. I have subjective and objective data for both. I know I have to consider the ABCs. If circulation is the ...

Yes, you're right. Looking at the defining characteristics points to Ineffective Tissue Perfusion. Circulation is priority over mobility. It helps to think and go through the assessment data, but thank you guys for clear out my head! :up: Thank y...

Thanks outrunningzombies, my concern is total dependency to perform ADLs, risk for impaired mobility, risk for impaired skin integrity, risk for falls, and with impaired mobility the possibility to develop PE. Thanks a lot

Thanks StudentOfHealing, more data is needed. Hx. PVD, DM II, Ulcerated toes, RA. CRT

Thanks StudentOfHealing, you're right, more data is needed. Heart condition ok. Respiratory ok. Hx. PVD, DM II, Ulceration in feet, plus recent BKA LL. (2 days post-op). Even though everything leads to Ineffective tissue perfusion with CRT

You can do it! When planning your schedule, make sure to include some type of recreation. It helped me to have a clear purpose. Why do I decided to study Nursing? But they are right, above all take care of your health! Best wishes!

Thank you! I just started in allnurses and is great to have responses from experienced nurses. When I finish the RN program, I will continue with Geriatric studies. I think this is an area that will expand in the future.

Thank you Hpy_VlyRNBSN;
