blinky ASN, RN

It was the 16th and not the 23rd like I thought. The money sucks but I'm over it, but why the hell is my ATT invalidated and now I have to wait 4-5 days to get a new ATT then HOPE there is a open date to take my NCLEX next week which I'm pretty damn ...

First time i was told by my DON [after being called in before my shift for a meeting] that it was his son, then later she said it was his daughter, then i asked her another question the following day and she says he said i tried to sell to his daug...

So investigation is completed they found nothing. My DON said she'd help with the stalker report and ic an give them her direct cell#. -i assume the PD have some technology they can hook up to my companies phone lines to unblock calls or like you sai...

i recently called my DON to see the status of investigation she said they found nothing that supports his claims and i should expect to resume work this Saturday on my next scheduled day. she said he said he may call back on Monday. But she is not a...

this is all good info, except what do i say when they ask who, the caller wont leave any information i told my DON that if this person calls again they should not be given any information about the investigation without giving personal information du...

Id find a different job and start looking, that to me is the dumbest thing ever, you need to A train on the shift you are going to work as things have different rhythms . you're body wont be able to adjust and the stress of a new job then working m...

I have been working at my facility longer than she has by about a year. She started as a floor RN then eventually promoted to DCD as we lost a day DCD and frankly no one wanted the job. i worked with her as a night floor rn for about a year before he...

Three times in 2 and a half + years hardly seem that often to me, but you are right follow orders that is the job. -I'm not angry she got promoted lol, i don't wan't the DCD job. There are others i would of picked for that position but they passed it...

it was not ordered as such "wound care per wound care team" , and we have no union. THE HR lady is very un confrontational and i doubt would be of any help. Her manage is the DON who i wrote the letter to who hasn't said anything sadly.

i mentioned it earlier "Director of Care Delivery (DCD) then each have sub titles, hers i believe is nurse education ironically." it was not ordered as such "wound care per wound care team" , and we have no union. THE HR lady is very un confrontat...

ty for response, she didnt write me up just chewd me out. i've not complained to my DCD or ADON/DON for 2 and 1/2 years i've been there. So coming from someone who doesnt complain for that long hopefully gives my complaint more validity. I cant wr...

The previous issues were 1 i had left a house stock suppository in a room with a AOx 3 pt who said he didn't want me to insert it and was going to do it soon,my shift was ending and i chose to leave it with him. Told the oncoming nurse about the iss...

i didnt do the order differently because it was easier or faster, i did it because i did the research on the product and thought it was perfect for that wound. my way was longer and harder just an FYI. This wasnt done as a short cut or get around wo...

insurance covers nothing, i only could pay for it as i had money in my flex care spending account, They are worth it, but are recommended to be changed every two years depending on wear and usage. I think they are worth it. I still need a proper sh...

Trying to find a good running/comfort shoe to wear at work. And or a good insert for good arch support. Most recently [ about 4 months ago] i did the dr schols foot scan and bought the 50$ pair of shoe inserts which i liked, but as of now they are j...

appreciate the responses. SBARs? PA's and MD's don't even look at let them, let alone their own forsaken charts, i take it back some do read and respond to their charts still surprises me every time thoguh. 2+ years experience im no longer afrai...

I've been working for two years + in LTC. Been chewed out by families, co workers, patients i've handled it and let it slide/ ignored it what have you. But what gets me are these arrogant disrespectful Doctors/physician assistants who seem to lack...

i've locked my med cart keys IN my med cart, not once but two times now. Hey they are safe at least.

I work LTC and we have one dementia pt, who like clockwork gets up walks out with her purse and bng and continuously asks anyone she sees if they can call her a cab. Shen then proceeds to tell the same exact details of her life. To the point most ev...

well i bit the bullet and bought a 230$ custom foot scanned orthopedic insert from my chiropractor. Now on to find a good pair of shoes hopping the inserts are worth it

do they have any male versions? also need to be mostly white in color

How is it LEGAL for a AOx3 pt to physically abuse any staff member of the facility

Just for more info i started LTC as a RN at $28.25, 1$/hr+ shift for midnights. First raise was 40cents

ROFL at this ""12. (To my administrator) You walked right past that call light to tell me to answer it? Oh, I see. When you said anybody can answer a call light, you meant anyone but you."" except mine say "IT IS EVERYONES RESPONSIBLITY TO ANSWER ...
