  1. Upset Family

    jennylee321 replied to Tay56's topic in General Nursing

    Doesn't sound like you did anything wrong

  2. Rejected hours after an interview

    jennylee321 replied to edilleyrn's topic in General Nursing

    Sounds like they were hiring an internal candidate, and interviewing anyone else was just done out of obligation. Don't take it personally, this happened to a friend just the other day. If you wanted...

  3. Nursing Differences

    jennylee321 replied to ftee's topic in Canada

    You can start in any specialty that will hire new grads ie. Med-surg, OR, NICU, emerg, home health ect. You are working in an RN capacity so yes as long as you are a registered nurse they can hire...

  4. I Just Had A Needle Stick Injury (No Blood)

    jennylee321 replied to Gel88's topic in General Nursing

    Of course it's not best practice, but yes I've seen this nonsense of separating needles and syringes. Why you ask ? Because someone is being cheap about sharps bins

    jennylee321 replied to rosielolo's topic in Canada

  8. Advice please..NICU VS L&D

    jennylee321 replied to rnmm18's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Who are you more interested in caring for, the mother or the baby ? What pathophysiology are you more interested in maternal or neonatal? In L&D you are not taking care of the baby very long, it...

    Never heard of

  10. New Grad Needing Advice on Postpartum Nursing

    jennylee321 replied to NJRN2017's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah I mean if you have no experience with babies then NRP would be difficult, but you said you did your capstone in mother-baby so maybe it'll be alright. You best be getting a year of experience in...

  11. Media and Nursing

    jennylee321 replied to ccasssie's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    This sounds so much like a homework question that I'm pretty sure I had this word for word when I was in nursing school.

  12. New RN fresh off orientation

    jennylee321 replied to registerednurse17's topic in General Nursing

    I read the book mentioned above and I didn't find it to be an overly amazing read, just stock standard stuff. I did however read the book I have attached a link for and it was great, got me through...

  13. Black Sheep...time to leave?

    jennylee321 replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    1. Don't let the haters stop you! 2. From your old posts I remember that you really wanted NICU so don't let unfriendly coworkers get in your way. 3. I am an extrovert most of the time, I suppose I...

  14. Doctor upset by charting

    jennylee321 replied to LalaRN9000's topic in General Nursing

    I think if the patient said "my doctor doesn't know anything, he must be smoking something" then yes I would chart it. It relates to the trust and therapeutic relationship the patient has with the...

  15. Many nurses do not chart?

    jennylee321 replied to Guest716906's topic in General Nursing

    For me, starting my narrative notes early is what keeps me from leaving late. I try to start them anywhere between 5-630 depending on the day. I don't mention anything about my assessment unless it's...

  16. 6 months of experience as a new nurse, help!!

    jennylee321 replied to LHCL RN's topic in General Nursing

    Why was last night so bad? Can you give us a little more info

  17. Feel like a crap nurse. How do I become better?

    jennylee321 replied to stacylethani's topic in General Nursing

    Don't judge how "good" the other Newbies are doing by how they look from the outside. I've questioned other new staff can be so confident until I actually talked to them and realise they are having a...

  18. Vitals Check for pts. on Respiratory Support

    jennylee321 replied to JThieman's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    All the places I've worked it had been hourly for all patients on resp support. And except for one place has been hourly on all patients on monitors. The rationale for that being if they aren't having...

  19. 12 hour rotating shift thoughts??

    jennylee321 replied to Emmers4's topic in General Nursing

    Try it out, I much prefer 12s, more days off and less days at work. I felt like I was constantly at work when I did 8 hr rotating shifts. It's definitely not the same as doing mon-Fri 9-5. You work...

  20. Post Op vitals frequency

    jennylee321 replied to JThieman's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    That sounds good, obviously this also surgery specific. You will need more vitals on a pda ligation than a hernia

    jennylee321 replied to auson16's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I like the journal idea Sharon

    jennylee321 replied to Chocolate39's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I would recommend looking for a job in ICU or med surg before attempting to go back to school for

  23. New RN: don't like job in ICU

    jennylee321 replied to mrsbech05's topic in General Nursing

    Stick it out longer if you can manage it, seek out EAP through your job to help with the anxiety. Being anxious going to work is a new nurse thing not just an ICU

  24. Do you consider it helpful or not to be given a Pt’s attitude during a report?

    jennylee321 replied to DesiDani's topic in General Nursing

    A good question to ask yourself is what would I hand over if the family is present, because families being there during handover is the way things are headed, at least in

  25. Enteral Feed Rates

    jennylee321 replied to TheRuskie's topic in General Nursing

    That's a good question, I don't know exact rate because I imagine it would depend on age of the child, but I do know that those with Duodenal or jejunal tubes are meant to be on continuous feeds,...
