   sroseo replied to sroseo's topic in Professionalism

2. Scope of practice

   sroseo posted a topic in Professionalism

   sroseo replied to sroseo's topic in LTC Directors

   Ok, today was my first day on my own. It went pretty good. They've been without an ADON or steady DON for so long though that it is going to take some time to get caught up. I have about 300 pages to read between the f329 and the orientation handbook...

   sroseo posted a topic in LTC Directors

   I am the new adon at my 90 bed ltc/snf. Here's the thing though, I have only been an Rn for a year. I have no other previous nursing experience. Right off the bat they wanted me to take the DON position and I declined. They have continued to try to ...

    sroseo replied to sroseo's topic in Male Students

    Guy in Babyland, Thank you for your response. One of the few male nurses I know works in the NICU. I did not give any thought to men in nursing until I was assigned this paper and I started doing research. That is what made me want to get "real" opi...

    I would like to ask men in nursing school and those already in the nursing field for their opinions here. 1. What made you want to go into the nursing profession? 2. Did you have any reservations about it specifically since you are male? (I am tryi...
