    Massive Shortage of ICU Trained Nurses During COVID-19 Pandemic: The Need for Cross Training

    2BS Nurse replied to simba and mufasa's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I can't imagine cross training to the ICU. That type of nursing is an art just as much as a science. It takes years to become competent. How about we hire and train an appropriate number of staff...

    Full time jobs hard to find ?

    2BS Nurse replied to Anotherdegree4me's topic in General Nursing

    When I went to nursing school, I did so to specifically work in the outpatient realm. I haven't experienced some of the inpatient concerns above. Remember, one of the big draw-backs is working on or...

    Is anyone else holy crap concerned?

    2BS Nurse replied to ladycody's topic in Disaster Preparation

    He just needs to keep that information to himself. He has no business spouting off about the medications he's taking. A lot of his followers are ignorant enough to follow suit. Talk about the economy...

    At the Bedside with Covid-19 -Part 2: John

    2BS Nurse replied to SafetyNurse1968's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That is a terrible example of how to do a Covid test. Look for a video that shows actual insertion into the

    Bachelor`s in Psychology Struggling to Get into RN

    2BS Nurse replied to implathszombie9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Many of my nursing school classmates worked as bartenders because they made way more $ than a CNA. With this Covid pandemic, that's probably off the table depending on where you

    Are Big City Hospitals Really Getting Hit With COVID-19 Pts?

    2BS Nurse replied to EPS's topic in Disaster Preparation

    For those of you working in NYC, Detroit, Chicago and out east, bless you! My state still has low fatalities and lots of negatives compared to many others. This makes me nervous because there are so...

    ADN vs BSN Nurses' Competency

    2BS Nurse replied to StudentNurseMNUS's topic in General Nursing

    Oh geeze, here we go again! I did the ADN initially because it saved me a TON of money. My employer payed for the entire BSN completion. I'm working the same job as another RN who has been paying on...

    To be a coward, or to be a fool?

    2BS Nurse replied to MsJenn_The_RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I learned very early on to stand up for myself and my family's priorities. Put in your scheduled work time then go home. Administration takes advantage of our profession of "helpers". They will bleed...

    Why are some RNs rarely busy, while others are always busy

    2BS Nurse replied to DesiDani's topic in General Nursing

    I've noticed on the ambulatory side that staff can get away with being lazy and doing whatever they want. You pretty much would have to kill a patient to get fired. Laziness is just not a part of my...

    Nursing Is No Longer Worth It

    2BS Nurse replied to AnonymousSuper's topic in Disaster Preparation

    "Don't buy us pizza, baked goods, and crappy nurse's day prizes. Give us better pay and better benefits". Yes, this is insulting. How about the piece of clothing that's free

    This is really taking a toll on me...#Vent

    2BS Nurse replied to Alexa Weaver's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Just seeing 8 Alaris pumps hooked to 1 patient scares me! How can they expect a nurse to learn that in 2

    COVID-19: Nurse Shortages

    2BS Nurse replied to LucilleBluth's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I believe it's "the calm before the storm" in many areas. The surge is going to hit every community at different times. Bigger cities will see it first. I live in a mid sized Midwestern city and our...

    This is really taking a toll on me...#Vent

    2BS Nurse replied to Alexa Weaver's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I would like to see this topic in its own forum. How many others are being asked to do this and what is the risk to their nursing licenses? Does the hospital release you from any liability if you...

    RN Disciplined While Waiting On Covid 19 Result

    2BS Nurse replied to INDY RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Because other than working, most nurses are too exhausted to go out into their communities! Also, they are staying home because they don't want to infect anyone else! We don't even have union jobs in...

    RNs being phased out of urgent care?

    2BS Nurse replied to cowan19's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    This is especially scary during the current pandemic. I wonder if they aren't used to seeing acute patients? CMAs can't push IV meds or infuse IV antibiotics in my state. They also haven't been...

    2BS Nurse replied to MunoRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I did read this article, however, I'm reading about patients standing "shoulder to shoulder" in the NYC ERs. Not everyone has the luxury of working in this type of scenario. It's no wonder none of...

    2BS Nurse replied to INDY RN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    #1. This is so wrong. #2. I agree with Wuzzie. I too have seen multiple coworkers abuse Work Comp and FMLA. This is one reason I left a job in the past. I got so tired of people calling in sick...
