    Why hasn’t pay increased? Hazard pay, etc.?

    Jedrnurse replied to gcupid's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Unemployed people should come before extra pay. Hopefully, a lot of the soon-to-pass bill will bolster state unemployment funds as well as send direct payments to people. I also hope that the...

    To All Nurse Preceptors:

    Jedrnurse replied to pinkdoves's topic in General Nursing

    Many people who precept shouldn't. That being said, many facilities don't give staff a choice about doing it, don't give them training about how to do it, and don't care about the obvious

    Why is the abdominal assessment different than the rest?

    Jedrnurse replied to Dani_Sanchez777's topic in General Nursing

    I think that your rationale is still sound; isn't it possible that percussion may have the same effect (stimulating bowel sounds) that palpation does? OP: All caps is the online equivalent of...

    Thieves! Stealing Supplies During COVID-19 Crisis

    Jedrnurse replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Civil it is. Denying or ignoring words from Trump's own mouth can arguably meet the level of gaslighting. Please don't do

    Thieves! Stealing Supplies During COVID-19 Crisis

    Jedrnurse replied to adventure_rn's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Except it's not a game. There is someone in power who rightly deserves a hell of a lot of blame. Without mentioning names, he had a "hunch" that things would be fine. (After all, he had an uncle with...

    Word game with post titles

    Jedrnurse posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    I was looking at the list of general nursing topics and was reminded of a word game we used to play with the newspaper (albeit with a small change). Link two titles with the words "due to" and see...

    Well, At Least They Tell You Up Front

    Jedrnurse replied to Katillac's topic in General Nursing

    It's true that the company is 'telling you up front'. Unfortunately, some sucker will take the job, thus enabling the company to continue their practices. AND, there will be an AN complaint post...

    QAPI Coordinator

    Jedrnurse replied to JEM1974's topic in General Nursing

    If it were me (knowing that I'd be leaving soon), I'd say, "Since you're in effect renegotiating the job, let's begin by renegotiating the salary." Then they'd say "no" to which I'd reply "no" to the...

    QAPI Coordinator

    Jedrnurse replied to JEM1974's topic in General Nursing

    Formulate an exit plan. They are going to run you into the ground and, as soon as something inevitably gets "dinged" by regulators/inspectors, hang you out to dry as a

    RN job performance record access: VIA a SUBPONA

    Jedrnurse replied to Lll123gh's topic in General Nursing

    Most people don't have copies of their evals. I've never had an HR department where I was interviewing request them. Checking out a candidate is sort of HR's job; it seems like they're "farming out"...

    MSN Educator Capstone Topics

    Jedrnurse replied to msannaa7711's topic in General Nursing

    There is a very prevalent theme on AN concerning nurse precepting and all the issues/problems that go along with it. How about a capstone that deals with prepping, developing and supporting (willing)...

    Sick of nurses "referring" to our specialty

    Just read yet ANOTHER post from a new grad crashing and burning in their first job getting a variation of this advice: "Why don't you try something easier/less stressful like being a school nurse?" I...

    Should I resign, or wait it out?

    What’s changed since 2004?

    Jedrnurse replied to RenRN's topic in General Nursing

    I think that the issues you're focusing on (RRTs for example) will be the least of your concerns if you get back in. Honestly, getting familiarized with those kinds of changes will come quickly; it's...

    Joint Commission JACHO TJC

    Jedrnurse replied to lpn164's topic in General Nursing

    Management often wields the "because of TJC rules" club as a shut-everybody-up response, similar to people abusing the idea of HIPAA when they want to avoid the work of gathering/prepping/sharing...
