    Mentioning recovery from mental illness in a job interview?

    Jedrnurse replied to lunalilith's topic in Psychiatric

    You can utilize your "insider" experience in your practice, but don't disclose your private health history.

    How some kids are being raised...

    Jedrnurse replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

    While there certainly is (and probably always has been) a "Kids-These-Days" syndrome, there are also certain measurable things that support the idea that kids' agency/resilience/independence is less...

    How some kids are being raised...

    Jedrnurse replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

    I know! Plus the rationales for visits. Kids get up from their seats and bump their thighs/knees against the underside of their desks. Yeah, I know, it smarts- we've all done it. But really, you...

    Should I remove clinical experience and my first job from my resume? Advice please!

    Jedrnurse replied to nurse1045's topic in General Nursing

    Yes! It's like listing "nursing school" as experience when it's already under education. Everybody does the same basic rotations. If something special or unusual came up during your clinicals, the...

    Where to Draw the Line...?

    Jedrnurse posted a topic in School

    Hi, all. I'm currently in a private school (been there since their Summer camp in 2021). The salary is good, benefits are meh, but the main issue is the unending job description and lack of...

    Where to Draw the Line...?

    Jedrnurse replied to Jedrnurse's topic in School

    I told them a couple of months back that I was going away this Summer and wouldn't be available for the Summer camp. I had a feeling that they'd still be expecting me to do the prep work without extra...

    Annoyed Parent

    Jedrnurse replied to RuralMOSchoolRN's topic in School

    Sounds like a tough situation as it relates to staffing- teachers probably have to do a lot of what they wouldn't normally do if there was a full-time nurse on site. I'd maybe (diplomatically) ask...

    Lost CEUS

    Jedrnurse replied to Loveishope1970's topic in General Nursing

    I've never been audited. Hopefully it'll be a good long time (or never) for that to happen to you. The length of time that they go back depends on the individual state BON. Tip- scan your...

    Professional Responsibility vs Family Needs

    Jedrnurse replied to dkn86's topic in General Nursing

    Laws differ from state to state, but in general you're not mandated when you're outside of your professional role. Also, I wouldn't think it applied to the child who was a 'young

    Two-Headed Snake Bully Nurse

    Jedrnurse replied to Milkofamnesia02's topic in General Nursing

    On top of everything else Two-Headed Snake Bully Nurses are on the endangered species list and thus are federally protected. (On the other hand Venomous Two-Faced NETY Nurse Jackals are a dime a...

    RNs Replacing Registered Respiratory Therapists?

    Jedrnurse replied to LonghornChic's topic in General Nursing

    I certainly wouldn't be shocked if a for-profit corporation eliminated the specialty and dumped the lion's share of the additional duties on staff

    Seeking Constructive Feedback

    Jedrnurse replied to TECHTORNHOPEFULLY's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe " Thanks. It's always nice to hear somebody else's hacks/tricks. I've been doing this for (fill-in-the-blank) years but once in a while I just hit some bad luck." I think it establishes...

    Leaving Job - Advice For Giving Notice

    I've read a few times over the years that employers don't look at clinicals. IMO- If you get an interview and have had some clinical experiences that are applicable to what you're interviewing...

    Have you ever been looked down on because you don’t work in the hospital?

    Jedrnurse replied to happyhippo's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't wish inpatient hospital nursing on my worst enemy. If you told me that you worked in a practice like you described my response would be: "Good for you! You sure are
