  1. So Frustrated I want to quit nursing altogether

    Workitinurfava replied to deej394's topic in General Nursing

    To me, this sounds like something not worth leaving your job over. Managers suck everywhere, why?, because the higher ups either run them ragged or they don't let them lead. If you can find a decent...

  2. Paramedic looking for a career change...

    Workitinurfava replied to NYCNative21's topic in General Students

    Join the military and go from there.......that will take care of more than one thing at a time. Do 4 years and get out. You would then have money for college, plus some experience. You can use the...

  3. Teachers Discriminating against students

    Workitinurfava replied to harkness1989's topic in General Students

    If that is your real email, and name, take it down so you won't be traced. I know you are hurt because of failing the program but you don't want this fight. Move in silence and put yourself in a...

  4. Do you think interviews for nursing school can lead to discrimination?

    Workitinurfava replied to SilverNova's topic in General Students

    After reading all of this, maybe it is a blessing in disguise. Some of the unfairness you speak of happening in the schools happens in the work place, not everywhere and all of the time but it does...

  9. Nurse Practitioner (Mother) leaves 21 month old in car for 8 hours

    Workitinurfava replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I did the same thing when my kids were smaller because I was aware that these kinds of things can happen. Sometimes my husband would say, don't worry, I dropped him off at the

  10. Nurse dies after assault at job. She finished her shift first.

    Workitinurfava replied to missmollie's topic in Nursing News

    True, but it can't hurt to ask. The point is, I hope she advocated for herself as best as she could have. Was she made to go back to work or was it her choice? As nurses we need to remember to take...

  11. Why don't we talk much about these scenarios?

    Workitinurfava replied to Persephone Paige's topic in General Nursing

    She needed to be sprayed with mace or tased. That is what would happen if she was doing this in the

    Workitinurfava replied to Persephone Paige's topic in General Nursing

    Right, a dead nurse won't be able to use her license anyway, and even a severely injured

    Give her a badge that reads: RN assistant but let her know that it is a volunteer position and she will he helping you with the 1000 students as well as her own child. If she doesn't agree, than let...

  14. Nurse dies after assault at job. She finished her shift first.

    Workitinurfava replied to missmollie's topic in Nursing News

    Nurses should be paid extra (combat pay), because everyday we are on the front lines and at war with patients that have unstable minds. Management wants us to treat these people with white gloves and...

    Workitinurfava replied to Marija1's topic in General Nursing

    Do you know someone that will understand your situation and be able to help you get something else? On the other hand you may be happier working in a non-medical setting. Can you start a business?...

    Do you have support in the meantime? How will you pay your bills etc?, if you don't mind me

    Workitinurfava replied to Marija1's topic in General Nursing

    Not saying you should have had two jobs but this is why people have a fulltime and prn posiiton. I have personally had people tell me to always try and keep a 2nd position. It isn't easy to do

    Workitinurfava replied to Marija1's topic in General Nursing

    I feel like you were set up to fail. A person doesn't just work at a place for 18 years doing their regular stuff and now all of a sudden, the way you have provided patient care is a problem. If what...

    Workitinurfava replied to Marija1's topic in General Nursing

    18 years and they let you go just like that? It's not like you did nothing. Did you get the MD's permission to send the person out? When I worked in a LTC facility we had to let the MD know that the...

  22. Nurse dies after assault at job. She finished her shift first.

    Workitinurfava replied to missmollie's topic in Nursing News

    I am more shocked over the fact that this person didn't seek help for the injuries. I would have asked for a full body scan. Maybe they could have found the PE. Management knows we are the most...

    Workitinurfava replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing
