I have finally got approved for SSDI since 2018 I have had 2 rotator cuff surgeries on same shoulder. ACDF of C4-C7, permanent nerve damage because of spinal stenosis, meniscus repair, partial knee replacement that got infected, had a washout hospitalized 10 days, PICC line with IV antibiotics, large synovial cyst on l4-l5 had a laminectomy and fusion and was told not to lift more then 20 lbs forthe rest of my life. Neurotransmitter in c7 with 4 leads. That actually has helped with nerve damage... I also have RA I have been treated with IV DMARD for many years... oh I am only 54. So I got disability with first try . I did use a lawyer. So now my question, other then the obvious...care for myself, what's next? I mean I have always worked alot. I drove over an hour to work or more. Now what do I do? I am planning on keeping my license, because I have earned it. I just will never work again. And I don't want too. My husband makes good money. I only applied to disability in case something happens to him. Now how what do I do to keep my mind occupied. What have you done, retired or disabled.

I had an interview 2 weeks ago. It appeared to go well. The manager said she would send my information to HR. HR asked for 5 references 2 must be from supervisors. I got 4 references and 1 from a supervisor. I absolutely have no one else to ask. I sent HR an email ( there is no phone number) The email link for references stated to notify HR if I had any problems or questions with references. It was been 3 days. No response. I emailed manager, no response. The job I interviewed for still has my interview scheduled, it hasn't been updated that I am no longer considered for position. I am just frustrated that I feel like I have been ghosted. It's okay if they don't want me. I am not offended. I get it. But why ghost someone? That isn't right. Now I am to the point if they do offer me the position I might turn it down out of spite. Luckily I don't financially need to work. My husband has a good job. Thanks for letting me vent.

Hi, I haven't worked bedside for a few years. I have had a lot of experience in pediatrics and floated many times in NICU. I mainly cared for feeders and growers. Since it has been a while, does anyone have a list of common meds with dosages for the NICU. It is a level 2+ NICU. We do use vents but the maximum we leave them of vent is 3 days, then they are transferred out. Any help or suggestions will be helpful. I probably won't start job until March. I have an offer. I just want to be up to speed before I start. Thank You

My point is it should of been listed in your OP, not within17 pages , which I am not going to read.

The middle paragraph only talks about people that already had Covid. It doesn't discuss allegergies and hx of Guillen Barre and such

It has been a while since I was TNCC certified, but what I can remember the scenerio were either the same or very close to what is in the book

Honestly, I pretty much ignore what ever is said. I was surprised when I heard a 3 year old call me a Puta (SP maybe wrong.)Once I found out what that was I told the parents they were bad parents for teaching their child that and laughing at it.

Not trying to be a snot. But why not post the valid reasons instead of just supplying links?

Thank you

I just recently got a text saying the AHA is not requiring in person testing due to covid. Does anyone know anything about this?

Well I am so glad you have never been faced with that situation. Unfortunately, so of us have not been so lucky.

Apparently you never worked in an ER. There is a bunch of crazy out there.

Thank you, I been a nurse for 22 years. Passed the NCLEX first time with 75 Q. We did go thru the ranks and we were pretty much told to suck it up. Refused to listen or look at proof. That is why they refused to let us record the class retake.

I had to retake OB because the professors were worthless. Out of 80 students, 66 failed. They failed because their notes/lectures in class were different from the book, and never agreed with each other. We did not know how to answer the tests, since there are always 2 right answers in the choices. It was so bad, that when we took the class over again in the Spring semester, they refused to let us have recording device in the class for lectures to prove it. Something never denied in any other class. We would show them in our notes. Everyone had the same thing, they stilled denied. This is why I don't trust nursing professors and I am fighting tooth and nail not to get my BSN. I will never again support a system that purposely fails people so they can have a power trip. This school was Indiana State University.
