    I'm Overly Stressed Now

    Jedrnurse replied to Guest1167840's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Huh. Since she cares so much, why wasn't she running her obnoxious a$$ off to the hospital to be with mama? Of course, it's easier to bluster, insult and threaten someone than to actually do...

    Epi pens and stomach pain

    Jedrnurse replied to schoolnursenewbie's topic in School

    Tough one as stomach aches are such a common complaint. I guess I'd look at keeping a kiddo who also has a serious allergy in the office for awhile for observation. I don't see myself giving a pen...

    Non-Traditional New Grad Seeking Job Advice

    Jedrnurse replied to DancinGal's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds to me like you're selling your LPN experience short. You can pursue professional development geared towards the school job if you choose to do it. (The type of assessment you need in school...

    How has your role as a school nurse changed with COVID?

    Jedrnurse replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in School

    Easily 70% of the job is COVID related at this point. Also, the emphasis used to be on trying to keep the kids with somatic complaints in class and not send them home. Now I can't get rid of them...

    New ADON Job Concerns

    Jedrnurse replied to cmf2021's topic in General Nursing

    Even if you had been forewarned, it sounds like the volume of work expected for the role would not be doable. (Not unless you wanted to move in there and give up your life.) It gets me riled that...

    6 Interviews But Failed All Of Them

    Jedrnurse replied to lilibete's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    There may be other factors as well, ones that can be helped. I noticed on your post that there were a lot of writing errors. Do you proof your work, e.g. resume, application, etc.? If writing is a...

    How important is it to have a job in the medical field while in nursing school?

    Jedrnurse replied to Anatomy Jane's topic in General Nursing

    The job experience you get while in school can be helpful, but not as much as a situation that meets your other needs. Why add the stress of learning a new job to the stress of nursing

    Managers, Nurses and Delegation: Who Has Authority?

    Jedrnurse replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    You offered to take the time to do some of her charting, but couldn't give an enema? I'm perplexed- I've given more than a few of them over the years and they really don't take that long to do....

    Mandatory Staff Pictures In Patient Rooms

    Jedrnurse replied to ClassOf2004's topic in General Nursing

    What is your opinion on "calling in sick" when not really sick?

    Jedrnurse replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in General Nursing

    It's very frustrating when a unit with good attendance gets punished by being designated as the staffing pool for other units. On a slightly different note, I once had a nurse manager who would...

    Are some people not meant for acute care?

    Jedrnurse replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    Your title sums it up. Not everyone is built to do everything and that includes acute care nursing. The field is wide enough that most people can find their niche, and it's often not the area...

    Tired of being "the bad guy"...
