Like insulin or for example if someone had a head injury and you hold trazadone so that symptoms of head injury isn't mistaken for side effects of the sleep aid.

What are some interventions you usually use to deal with syncope and dizziness? I know checking the blood sugar, and vital signs should be the first you do. Then having the person lie flat and and letting them drink warm water, beef bouillon is another thing to do. What about you? What are your tips and tricks?

I just want some clarification? Because I was just told by my manager that I would have to stay on shift if they cannot find relief for the next shift because, according to her, the college of nurses of Ontario states that we need to stay on if relief does not arrive. However, when I tried to search for it, could not find anything written in the CNO that pertains to this. I don't have any children but what if I did? What if I had another job that I had to go to the next day? All of these questions rose in my mind. http://www.cno.org/globalassets/docs/prac/41070_refusing.pdf

Had I been let out two years earlier, I could have gone on to do my masters.

I felt like the last two years of my bachelors was a complete money grab for my university as I learned nothing practical or useful and would have completely at ease graduating at the two year mark.

I keep hearing about how American hospitals sometimes pay certain high achieving nursing students their tuition in exchange for locking them in contracts (presumably full-time) after graduation, and how easy it is to find a job in the states. I'm a Canadian nurse currently still a temporary part timer even with 8 months under my belt.

Where are you based? I'm in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I currently have 8 months of RN experience under my belt. I'm currently a temporary part timer. Before my current job, I was a permanent part timer. I'm looking to apply for a new job maybe after another year at my current job. Just wondering how long it took for you guys to score a permanent full time job.

I'm almost 25. I want to try out the hardest type of nursing to challenge myself.

Hard as in the specialty that requires the most amount of critical thinking and the field of nursing which has the fastest pace.

I have worked in long term care for the past six months and do not require continuing education. It is offered, but not required as entry into the field; whereas, if you look at ER positions, many require a continuing education certificate or will send applicants to CE before letting them work on the job.

I'm thinking either ER or ICU since both fields require continuing education. What, in your experience, is the hardest nursing field?

What about Hawaii and California? I have heard they are saturated as well, but still remain hopeful.

Hi, I'm a Canadian nurse with few months of experience under my belt. I was wondering: what are my chances of landing a job in new york city? I heard the nursing market is saturated there but still remain hopeful.

Thanks floridaRN38, I appreciate that. ?
