    Is it okay to drink water after liquid medication?

    Jedrnurse replied to pineappleupsidedowncake's topic in School

    Given that liquid benadryl can be a bit viscous, you might even be helping absorption by chasing it with water. (Just a hypothesis, but to answer your question, I've never heard of it being...

    denied FT job after subbing for school

    Jedrnurse replied to mmallien's topic in School

    Yeah. In my state, for example, an RN with an ASN or diploma could be a sub but couldn't be hired into a regular school nurse

    President Trump and the First Lady Test COVID Positive

    Jedrnurse replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Thank you. Recently, work has been "The COVID Show" and there's been a lot of policy/procedure work, DPH and Board of ED communicating and staff hand holding. Probably makes one a wee bit...

    Should I agree to binding arbitration?

    Jedrnurse replied to psych nurse in training's topic in General Nursing

    Anecdotally, every decision I've heard about from binding arbitration has been in favor of the employer, I.e. the customer of the person/company providing the

    President Trump and the First Lady Test COVID Positive

    Jedrnurse replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    You included me in your statement as needing "remedial education" for pointing out the hypocrisy of the mega-testing regime surrounding a man who has hampered, sabotaged, and discouraged testing. I...

    ...not to mention that Trump, who has sabotaged and been dismissive of testing programs, is in a veritable "testing bubble" of staff and people going to the White House. Hypocrisy? Irony? Or just a...

    I am in a little predicament…

    Jedrnurse replied to guest1107684's topic in General Nursing

    You have no obligation to accept a job because a friend tried to facilitate an interview. Out of politeness, keep your friend in the loop about the interview you had- he should be happy for you!...

    Behavioral Health Nurses in the ED

    Jedrnurse replied to KrysMcKrys's topic in General Nursing

    It's certainly within your scope and licensure; you just need to be oriented to the equipment. Non-licensed people help with screenings in some places; the procedures themselves don't require a...

    I would recommend some time working in inpatient psych units. You can see people at their most acute; I think it would help you in the outpatient setting. Have you thought about advanced practice...

    Sorry, I have to disagree. The situation that the OP describes can't possibly be rectified by one person during a regular work week. Being a martyr now just sets the "I'm a doormat, hand me more stuff...

    Honestly, as a new nurse, you'd be really lucky to get the clinic schedule right out of the gate. If you dig into it, you can learn a lot. Hospital nursing is often overrated and is NOT the end...
