6. Break Relief RN

   jessimee replied to nwnikki's topic in Medical-Surgical

   I work as the "resource nurse" on a med-surg unit. We typically have more surgical patients than medicals, so we have lots of admissions/discharges. I work 7-3, weekdays and my role includes helping...

7. Hospitals in Denver

   jessimee replied to bbmeg02's topic in General Nursing

   Of the three, I would recommend St. Anthony first. It is run by Centura, which is non-profit, and has a reputation for treating its nurses well. I work at another Centura facility and I find that to...

   jessimee replied to ModernRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   We have a few physicians who refuse to learn Epic. I had one recently who couldn't figure out how to put a patient on the particular insulin regimen that he wanted. He ordered "something similar",...

   jessimee replied to Want2BeeRN's topic in General Nursing

   If I could do it all over again, I would choose to be a musician (stringed instruments). But, that being said, I am happy being a nurse. I have never held a nursing job or worked in a specialty that...

    Hi All--I work at a small-ish hospital and some of the units have hoodies that they are allowed to wear at work (our uniform policies are otherwise pretty strict) with slogans/logos on them that...

    Thank you all for your thoughtful responses--I appreciate them all! My plan to deal with this is as follows--I will continue to not engage with her, acknowledge her frustration and move on. I will...

14. Should mean people be allowed to be mean at work?

    jessimee replied to jessimee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Thank you. With this particular individual, it is mostly behind people's backs. And it's constant. And yes, it's shoes and hair comments, but it's also complaints about their work habits, what...
