  1. South Nassau Communities Hospital

    MrsGPR replied to wasup's topic in New York Nursing

  2. St. Francis Long Island

    MrsGPR replied to BSNin2008's topic in New York Nursing

    I did a clinical rotation there in school this past semester. I remember leaving there with the underlying tone in my gut of "yeah - I think I could work here"... I saw the nurses respecting each...

  5. South Nassau Communities Hospital

    MrsGPR replied to wasup's topic in New York Nursing

    MrsGPR replied to amadime1's topic in New York Nursing

  15. What do ER Nurses look for in a PCT?

    MrsGPR replied to MrsGPR's topic in Emergency

    So would I be the BIGGEST poser if I brought/used my stethescope as a PCT? Wouldn't it be better for apical heart rates and manual BPs? I am so used to practicing vital signs in the lab with it at...

    MrsGPR replied to MrsGPR's topic in Emergency

    MrsGPR replied to EmilyUSFRN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    MrsGPR replied to Perseus Mandate's topic in First Year After Licensure

    There may be a bridge-to-RN program available for you if you'll have a bachelor's in another field. You mentioned Stony Brook. Is that Long Island? If so, I can point you in the direction of my...

  24. What would u do?...

    MrsGPR replied to PACU queen's topic in First Year After Licensure
