  1. New Nurse, terrible shift

    Workitinurfava replied to ascty87's topic in General Nursing

    Problem is your panicking before the report. You know more than you think. First focus on what you did and what needs to be done. If you can't remember everything just talk on those two thinks mostly....

  2. Leaving federal job for nursing school

    Workitinurfava replied to guest62419's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For me it's the opposite. I am happier on nights and don't plan to come off of it. I can do days now but don't want to. I like sleeping in, in the morning. I am a night owl naturally. I know it's not...

  3. Night Shift is Causing Panic Attacks

    Workitinurfava replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    Dayshift is the first beast, and night shift is the 2nd. You made a good point. It is like trading one thing for another but both are from the same coin, just two different sides of

  5. Caught Sleeping on Night Shift

    Workitinurfava replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

  7. Experienced nurse turned down several times..

    Workitinurfava replied to kmek30's topic in General Nursing

    Are you a job hopper? What kind of questions are you being asked? Don't volunteer information. Don't discuss conflicts with co-workers. Have it worked out why you left the previous place and make sure...

  8. Leaving federal job for nursing school

    Workitinurfava replied to guest62419's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Working nights can pay you another 8 to 10 dollars an hour at some places so you could make 40 instead of 32. The issue is working the shifts/nights and not having someone to help out with the girls....

  9. Co-worker issue

    Workitinurfava replied to weluvoands's topic in General Nursing

    If the OP has to apologize it will set the wrong tone. She may as well apologize as soon as she clocks in for work every day. Atleast the OP tried to help. The nurse has clearly been doing Bps wrong...

    Workitinurfava replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    That sucks, chances are they still won't hire you as unfair as it is if you didnt leave on good standards, good standards basically means that they won't blackball you. I went to HR to make sure I...

  15. I just failed my NCLEX...

    Workitinurfava replied to LilUZT's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I used the qbank. I purchased other nclex online class materials but it was to confusing. Sometimes all you need is to get the questions and figure out why you do and don't understand them. Read the...

    Workitinurfava replied to nets5010's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think it is a calling, of course you are entitled to your opinon. I wonder if other (paid)professionals think this way about a "calling"? Many people I talk to say they decided to do what they...

  21. Any nurses that love nursing and love their job??

    Workitinurfava replied to nets5010's topic in General Nursing

    I love the job minus the charting, and short staffing. Those are the two things that make me want to do something else. However I do enjoy time I spend with my patients. If I can just find the

    Is it really just 12 hours or more? I ask because I thought of being a dialysis nurse, but was told I could work 15 hours or more. I also saw some nurses show up at 4 in the morning and not leaving...

    Workitinurfava replied to KalipsoRed21's topic in General Nursing

    I wonder if OP can take a break from nursing. If she is the only source of income, I am not so sure she can take off to heal without her bills getting behind. Hopefully she
