    What happens if narcan doesn't work?

    It can be dose dependent. Did your scenario involve repeating the treatment, I.e. more Narcan? But yeah, you'd probably bag the patient as the lead up to

    Wouldn't float pool staff be more likely to be laid off than unit-based staff nurses? (Just thinking of the current lay-off

    New Grad starting during COVID advice?

    COVID will be around for awhile so if you want to wait for a "safe" time to start working as a nurse you may be unemployed for a long while. (not to mention the other risk factors that have always...

    Jobs during NP school.

    I would suggest maybe 3/4 time work instead of full-time. (Pay tuition as you go, but back off on saving for a house.) Not burning out during school- and doing well- are good priority

    bodily fluid exposure?

    I would be more concerned about touching your phone during the lunch break (in general) after it's probable contamination. How often do you clean your phone? You may be dealing with prior...

    Expired License Nurse

    Some questions: Is Nursys infallible? Wouldn't it have been incumbent upon the friend's current employer to verify the license? Does OP suspect incompetent practice? If OP is wrong, there goes the...

    Would this look like job hopping?

    You could always tell anyone who asks that you needed to get a regular benefited position. Is there no way to work just a minimum number of hours at the per diem job just to keep it as a back-up? (Not...

    BSN to MSW??

    If you do get a second degree I would recommend getting one on the graduate level. No matter what you end up doing, it'll be more beneficial to you than a second BS/BA. You may want to look for...

    Cry me a river...?

    I have been in healthcare for a long time (since just out of high school) in one form or another. There's a trend I've noticed with a lot of posts that I'm wondering if it's new, or if I've just...

    RN who has not worked

    If you search the topic on AN via the top right search box, you'll find that many people have posted similar stories and/or have had similar experiences. One piece of advice that I've seen many times...
  23. You need to slow your roll. It's a loooong leap from someone saying that maybe you should TALK to a fellow nurse about an action to: 1. assuming that we're saying it's okay 2. assuming that we'd do...

    Bachelor`s in Psychology Struggling to Get into RN

    re: ASAP- yeah, I know that. I was curious about the "need" part. Did you mean you need a job ASAP? Because a search on AN will lead you to a LOT of posts from people who thought that nursing would be...
