    Forced from RN to MA question

    That's pretty much what I meant. Of course the OP can perform MA duties under the RN license but needs to be

    Forced from RN to MA question

    There are specific tasks that may be expected that the OP has not ever done, particularly lab-related. Or some other office routines, say vision screening or hearing screening. (not covered in nursing...

    CMA playing "Nurse Manager?" CMA boundaries? NPD?

    In general, people who think for themselves don't post for anonymous strangers (is that redundant...??) asking them for advice about what they should do. Sometimes, though, they seek a validation echo...

    More and more layers

    What did the phone screening consist

    Mieux de vie

    Asked in "most interviews"?
  6. Did you just let it go, or switch to "inactive" status? I would think it'd be easier to deal with NC then look for reciprocity in NM then start from scratch in the new

    Dropping off resume/portfolio to unit you applied to?

    Right, so it's more evidence disproving the shortage

    Who wants to hire a graduate nurse at 55?

    It seems you're concerned about people generalizing about the age issue, but aren't you generalizing from your experience of being hired as a 58 year old? Unless you have a larger sample group, your...

    International College of Health Science

    If you can't easily find this information, it's a warning bell. Also, the name alone reminds me of fly-by-night schools that try to sound

    question---How many?

    Are you able to create a 'case management' visit in your EHR? I've been able to do that to account for time spent chasing down doctor's offices for PEs, parents for vaccinations, etc. This makes your...
  11. Does your claim come with a money-back guarantee?
  12. LTCs are often desperate for staff, bad LTCs even more

    Witchcraft Resurgence

    Yeah, I was pondering troll vs. extreme naivete and after reviewing the content I'm going with

    Witchcraft Resurgence

    You should think about not digging your hole any deeper at this
  15. Maybe I'm missing something, but what was so all-fired offensive about what was

    Witchcraft Resurgence

    Thank you! While there are plenty of people willing to go with glorified snake oil for their treatment, that doesn't mean that medical professionals should throw the baby out with the bath water on...

    Difficulty with scheduling

    ...also keep in mind that using negotiating leverage like that can paint a managerial target on your back, given some of the personalities that populate nursing
  18. Maybe it's not necessarily either/or. You can have two health insurances, primary/secondary, I wouldn't be surprised if two malpractice insurance policies were better than
  19. Interesting. Did they give a reason? If you're not comfortable saying which one it was, can you give a hint? (So people can avoid giving them

    Question: Tooth or Foot First?

    Sounds like a more straightforward question of priority. Not knowing what the foot problem was, I'd assume that the oral surgery should go first, as it was probably a higher risk
  21. I wouldn't be surprised if doing it constitutes burning a bridge. How badly do you NOT want to do that? "You don't owe them anything." Do you agree with that mindset? How has your current employer...

    Toileting pre-k a nursing function?

    If a pre-K TA doesn't know how to handle toileting, they are in the wrong
  23. The time 'lapsed' between completing your ADN/passing the boards and starting an RN to BSN is not an issue, unless you think your study skills are rusty. If that's the case, see if there are any...

    Hired on the spot? Take it or look elsewhere?

    Those warning bells are going off in your head for a reason- listen to

    Bad orientation should I leave

    A question to you for self-reflection- Were you really being "yelled at a lot" or were you being corrected in a no-nonsense
