    Chances of finding RN position with the ability to commit only a few months before moving?

    Wuzzie replied to soluscreas's topic in General Nursing

    It would be an enormous waste of time and money for them. Probably better to just concentrate on a job in your new area. You might be able to find a short term CNA position in an LTC in the

    New Graduate Resume

    Wuzzie replied to mthomas27's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Chances of finding RN position with the ability to commit only a few months before moving?

    Wuzzie replied to soluscreas's topic in General Nursing

    It is highly doubtful anyone is going to hire you for such a short period. I’m curious to know why you aren’t searching for a job in the area you’re moving

    Would you "adopt" a nurse or allow yourself to be "adopted" (For Nurses' Week)?

    Wuzzie replied to Sour Lemon's topic in General Nursing

    God no! I’m already so over the “hero” stuff. In no way am I meaning to diminish the sacrifices that all of us, particularly the absolute front-line nurses, have made but all of this is starting...

    Wuzzie replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Oh for god’s sake I have repeatedly expressed that having an opinion is fine. Presenting it as fact is not. And “condemn”? That’s a bit over the top. Nobody here is arguing to continue with...

    I am not qualifying anything! I have always said their calculations were wrong which is why I linked the article from an epidemiological expert supporting my position. Anyone with half a brain can...

    The data they used may have been accurate but they applied it incorrectly. Because at the time all we had was what we saw in China and Italy. Once we had our own data to look at we adjusted...

    What part of “never said that a mass lockdown was the way to go” did you have difficulty understanding? Also, I’m perfectly aware of the purpose of “flattening the curve” as are most people...

    Never said that a mass lockdown was the way to go but again we can’t quarantine the people who have Covid because a large portion of them are asymptomatic and untested. What do you propose we...

    Nasal cannulas behind the head

    Wuzzie replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Babies ears are so pliable it’s almost impossible to keep the cannula behind them. I would think the risk of hanging would be fairly low given that kids with O2 requirements are rarely left alone....

    How do we quarantine the sick when we have asymptomatic sick people? I mean, what an asinine statement those two made. Look, I'm all for opening things up in a safe manner, fortunately my state...
