UK Hospitals Policies ???
Hello guys, I'm a Canadian Nurse and was wondering if it is true that UK Hospitals, somewhere in Hamshiere don't allow their patient to use cell phones and Internet? Is that trustful information? Is that hospital policy? I'm asking this because one person is saying me constantly that they are not allowed to use electronical devives in the hospital?? I personally have never heard about that..May be it is particaular units or some medical conditions which don't allow that.. Here in Canada our patient allowed to have everything: and notebook, and the cell phones.. Please if someone could respond on my add I will be very thankful for that.. Mia and thank you again..

Q for the OR nurses??
Hi guys, I'm quiet new here, and I have some test q to ask you. If you know the answers, would you be so king to help me? Thanks. The surgeon allows his surgical assistant to leave prior to closure of the incision and asks the scrub nurse to assist (retract and cut sutures) while she is doing the closure count. As the scrub nurse, you would: inform the surgeon that you are still counting but will assist as soon as your count is completed assist the surgeon and count after the closure of the abdomen is complete assist the surgeon while counting as a scrub nurse is supposed to multitask inform him that retracting is not your job ---------------------------------------------------------------- You are asked to scrub for an emergency cesarian section (C/S). You know that you usually perform this many counts for a C/S (think about how many body cavities are entered to deliver the baby): 2-initial count and skin closure count 3-initial count, abdominal cavity closure count, and skin closure count 4-initial count, uterus closure count, abdominal cavity count, and skin closure count. 5-initial count, uterus closure count, peritoneum closure count, fascia closure count, and skin closure count -------------------------------------------------------------------- The patient is rushed into the OR just as you are just beginning to receive supplies from the circulating nurse. You are not yet set up and have not even started your initial count and the surgeon has scrubbed and is beginning to prep. Best practice dictates that you would: insist that an initial count be done prior to the start of the surgery notify the appropriate management that an initial count was not done forget about counting because of the emergency status of the procedure and then follow incorrect count policy at the end of the case only count items used in the procedure ---------------------------------------------------------------- My own answers are : 1-1 2-3 3-4 I don't know if I'm correct, please check on me?? Thank you for your help/

Hi there, According to your IELTS score: you passed only speaking(7), listening(6) and writing(6). Your band score and reading part are not sufficient enough..and it means that you didn't pass.. I had the similar problem with such a score, but even thougth that my band score was 6.5(according to the CRNBC rules), the only problem I had with my reading part (my score was 5.5) and because of this 5.5 they asked me TO REPEAT THE TEST! Good luck to you!

Hello guys, I want to move and to practice as a RN in Alberta(Fort McMurray) or others northern cities. I was wandering how and where can I get the information about those areas (such as RN salaries in those areas, climate, renting the houses, finding the jobs opportunities there). Any information will be really appreciated. Thanks for your help.
