  1. When did it become OK to treat your nurse like poo?

    WOW! I've been an RN for 34years, in all aspects of the profession. I've NEVER had a patient be even REMOTELY abusive in the manner you are speaking of, and it's always been please, and thank you, and when you get time. The only time I've been repo...
  2. CALIFORNIA-PAY

    Yessir! That is what I've read recently too! IT's ALL BS. I JUST NOW got an e-mail from one of the recruiters, and agency, that is paying $3400/wk for ICU in L.A. and San Francisco. If I had a way to send you her e-mail, I could give it directly...
  3. CALIFORNIA-PAY

    you will be very marketable, even L.A. and San Francisco are begging for all types of nurses, ADN's, BSN's, LVN'/LPN's. Go on Craigs list for a more sure way of getting your info. thru to the right person, people don't realize how much it offers. ...
  4. Frustrated New Grad

    It's not Denver, it is YOU. As I stated, you are a native coloradan, it is obvious. I've seen you on many threads, and your only reason for being on here is to cause conflict where none exists. AND, I'd believe you would do away with all ADN's if...
  5. Frustrated New Grad

    Too much reality of the negative will certainly turn the naive away from trying to move forward. There is so much positive to be giving, and paying forward, to steer someone , our young ones, toward succeeding in their new career, thus taking their ...
  6. Frustrated New Grad

    scared silly is incorrect. All Centura and Exempla hospitals are hiring ADN's. I am an ADN and have personally been offered jobs recently by both. An ad may say "BSN preferred", but if your experience is what they want, you are in. Magnate status ...
  7. Are CNAs allowed to do PPDs in Texas?

    OH, just come to Colorado, they are so loose here, anyone can do anything. Seriously. I miss home so badly in Texas where standards are upheld. Here, I've been in fear of my license on many occasions.
  8. Moving to Cali

    question for moderator, is "ASN" Associates of Science in Nursing?, another term for ADN? or is this something else? just curious if california uses ASN instead of ADN, might help in getting a job?
  9. Job market & pay for Murrieta, CA area

    I just received my CA license Nov. 30, 2014. June 15, 2014: Sent everything by Certified Mail w/return receipt (so they couldn't say they didn't get it), spoke directly with my administration at my nursing school, and stayed on the phone with them wh...

    they will be able to tell you that at the Meet and Greet, and if you don't, you'll probably be introduced to several of the nurse managers of different departments ANYWAY!!!!!!! You GO GIRL!!!!! They will say, let me help you find your way thru th...
  11. RECIPROCITY to California - RN Graduate from the PHILIPPINES

    you are in the game so far, they will not send you a letter tho, unless they just started doing that. Go on their website, and follow the prompts. It will tell you what month they are looking at applications that they just cashed the checks for. the...
  12. San Antonio Methodist Residency Feb 2015

    Good job Ladies, she should be able to get the info. she needs , very well done, AS ALWAYS TEXANS! WOOOHOOOO!
  13. Stanford RN Residency March 2015

    I cannot express how EXCITED I am for all of you who will be given the privilege of this residency program. I went through one at "MOTHER BAYLOR" University in Dallas, Tx., 1981, yeah, I'm an older gal), the experience was beyond phenomenal.!! I'm...

    "gave one of those 3-H enema's, eh?
  16. Frustrated New Grad

    Hey there blueyes27, go to "Craigslist" choose Denver, medical jobs. page 1, about halfway down the page, it says: NEED PEDIATRIC HOME CARE RN'S, ASK ABOUT NEW GRAD PROGRAM", it is with PROFESSIONAL PEDIATRIC HOME CARE, Inc. in Denver, but you ...
  17. pay comparison/cost of living

    not really any VA jobs except occasionally, poor pay, people not treated well as I'm told. Colorado as a whole does not pay well, and does not keep up with HIGH HIGH cost of living. Nobody probably told you that, but it's TRUE.
  18. pay comparison/cost of living

    I'd clarify and get it in WRITING before moving. Just FYI.
  19. Frustrated New Grad

    blueyes27: some of those resume's and applications you put online do NOT go thru, I've found that to be true myself, about 50% of the time! SO, what I've done, is get the name of the company, hopefully they will have a phone number and/or an e-m...
  20. Frustrated New Grad

    Pardon me, we were talking "ADN'S" generally in my conversation . Not just new grads. You are mixing the two conversations. Childrens has a "new grad. post graduate program" they are offering to BSN grads, because they are working on their "Magna...
  21. How can I stand out at clinicals?

    THIS is the best suggestion I've heard so far. This is EXACTLY what I and my colleagues did DURING nursing school. work prn/pt as an aide at the hospitals you are doing your clinicals in, YOU WILL BE SEEN!
  22. Frustrated New Grad

    that's not true. ANY hospital in the metropolitan area will hire an ADN , happens every day. Even tho the ad may say"BSN preferred", they will take ADN's any day. In fact, most hospitals are 75% ADN's. Without experience, it doesnt matter if yo...
  23. Bathroom? What's a bathroom ... ???

    Ladies and gentlemen, you MUST take time out for FLUID INTAKE, and OUTPUT. While you are young, your body handles it pretty well, but as you get older, fluid retention can take over, you can get inflammatory issues, auto immune disorders from th...
  24. Priorities Can Kill: When Passing the Buck Gets Dangerous

    you sound like supernurse, and to remember all those details, I applaud you! I hate to say this, but I'm glad to see more and more hospitalists LOSING their jobs, they are as useless as TITS ON A BOAR HOG! ANd I applaud you for your quick action,...
  25. anxiety about a mistake

    Simply put, if you THINK you made a mistake and don't know how to fix it, go and grab a nurse , and have them explain to you if you did or did not change anything on the pump, then you can make a learning experience out of it. I agree with all the...
