    5150rn2 replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

  6. What NP Specialty Should I Choose?

    5150rn2 replied to Bumex's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    The NP trend that I find most concerning is not only the lack of specialization, it's the lack of experience and practical knowledge. Apparently there are now programs that go from 0 to NP with your...

  12. Manager interrupting

    5150rn2 replied to lifeisgood516's topic in General Nursing

  13. Manager interrupting

    5150rn2 replied to lifeisgood516's topic in General Nursing

    Studies are also finding that multi tasking leads to increased errors and less optimal outcomes. Personally I wouldn't want to have. Even either pt on those codes. The pre-op is important. Do you...

  14. No rehire !!!!!!!!!!

    5150rn2 replied to Yorker's topic in General Nursing

    5150rn2 replied to ella2990's topic in General Nursing

    5150rn2 replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    It's such a good point you make here. Keeping the "human"ness in nursing. Though I have often heard about my communication" skills from bosses and back in the day, instructors. I stand by them to...

  18. What Do You Love About Nursing?

    5150rn2 replied to Allison007's topic in General Nursing

    First let me say this.. what they say about school is true. It will be one of the most challenging in every way thing you do. Better to tell you up front don't you think? But look at how many...

  20. I hate nursing

    5150rn2 replied to Neezy84's topic in General Nursing
