    New grad from online RN program with ZERO CLINICAL EXPERIENCE

    Wuzzie replied to angel1312's topic in General Nursing

    What JLK is saying and I agree is that there is a good chance that some nursing programs may see this as an opportunity to get rid of that tedious chore of arranging and managing actual clinicals and...

    Alex, you seem to be all over the place. According to your last post you already accepted the job with the one hour commute and are to start in January. Is this another

    New job. Got injured. Fired for unexcused absences during new hire probation period... what did I do wrong?

    Wuzzie replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in General Nursing

    This is an important point. If you are deceitful on an application on which you attested that the information is truthful and someone finds out somewhere down the road you risk being fired once it...

    Literally not one of us has been sanctimonious or holier than thou. The OP asked for thoughts and we obliged. I seriously doubt that a large majority of us have embellished or stretched the truth on...

    New job. Got injured. Fired for unexcused absences during new hire probation period... what did I do wrong?

    Wuzzie replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in General Nursing

    Every single job application I've filled out has a box to check where it asks if you were ever fired from a position. If you check "no" and the hiring manager finds out that that isn't true I can...

    New job. Got injured. Fired for unexcused absences during new hire probation period... what did I do wrong?

    Wuzzie replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in General Nursing

    Wouldn't be prudent. All it would take was a credit check (yes they do those) and then not only would you be a person who calls off too much but also a liar. Optics only...not really how I view you....

    Wuzzie replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in General Nursing

    The correct term is "at will employment" and you're right, unfortunately it's a thing. It's supposed to be beneficial both to the employer and the employee allowing a no fault separation of the...

    Urgent: Need advice please?

    Wuzzie replied to FutRNRock's topic in General Nursing

    I’m fairly certain that most hospitals do not provide N95s for daily use in units not specified as COVID units because they haven’t been found to be necessary. A surgical mask, eye protection in...

    Urgent: Need advice please?

    Wuzzie replied to FutRNRock's topic in General Nursing

    So just to clarify, your employer will provide an N95 when you have a COVID + patient or PUI but you want to wear one at all times and you’re upset because your employer won’t provide you with...

    Which route?

    Wuzzie replied to MomtaRN2B2020's topic in General Nursing

    Why pigeonhole yourself? You have no idea what you can accomplish and you will never know if you don’t try. Like I said if you try it and it isn’t your cup of tea you can always got back to

    Which route?

    Wuzzie replied to MomtaRN2B2020's topic in General Nursing

    You need to clarify your end-game. What kind of NP are you looking at becoming? If you want to be in the ED then you need your FNP. If you want to be a hospitalist then your AG-ACNP. I think the best...

    Well, if it’s true there should be plenty of peer-reviewed, scientific research to support your statement not just one retracted article. Good thing it’s the weekend. Happy
