  1. What do you think of 12 hour shifts?

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Joe V's topic in Nursing Humor

    I prefer 12s. More time home with the fam on my off days. I also do 24 HR shifts as an NP, sometimes. They literally pay me to

  2. Moving to TX from PA

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Citynurse302's topic in Texas Nursing

    A little off topic but where did you go to school in Philly. I attended West Chester and Widener for my degrees. I'm out in the Dallas area now since 2012. Love it here. Pay is higher here than where...

  3. Hired at 7 months pregnant, now what?

    YoutubeTheNP replied to LWSLPN's topic in General Nursing

    You need to tell them now so the employer has immediate backup. If you're due in November assuming your baby isn't early you're going to put your employer in a tough spot (in the peak of flu season...

  4. I'm not sure if nursing is for me and I am freaking out.

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Brewskii13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When you say you don't love or hate 'nursing'. Which part about nursing scares you? There are so many branches of it that nursing cannot be generalized as a whole. I think you just need to find the...

  5. Nursing Student

    YoutubeTheNP replied to shelbychapman's topic in General Students

    You're going to have a lot of 'first time' scenarios at clinical. Don't worry what other students were exposed to because eventually you will catch up. Depending on pts every student experiences a...

  7. Med errors

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Christina16's topic in General Nursing

    A little extra Ativan never hurt anyone!! In all seriousness though, it depends on what you mean by med error. The pt received someone else's meds, or the patient got a wrong dose are two totally...

  12. Career Change-confused!!

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    LOL. My delusional thought processes. Right, cause sticking up for someone is crazy. You can try and vilify me all you want. I hope you are not in a leadership position with your negativity and poor...

  13. Career Change-confused!!

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    Wow, coming from the Queen B herself. I do have an advanced degree, that's pretty much the only thing you've been right about. LOL at lacking real world knowledge, I'll take that as a

  14. Career Change-confused!!

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    Ya she got a whole bunch of answers to questions she didn't even ask. She asked what the best 2 year program is, a hospital based program or a ASN program, and if other people had jumped ship and...

  15. Career Change-confused!!

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    Right cause every time someone decides to go to nursing school a group of nurses huddles around them and tells them how unworthy, and unsuccessful they will be. Don't be so ignorant and defensive of...

  16. Career Change-confused!!

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Aspiring_RN_'s topic in General Nursing

    Aspiring RN, this thread has really blown up, hasn't it?? I'm actually a little embarrassed reading some of these comments from people who call themselves RNs. If I were you, after reading these...

    YoutubeTheNP replied to mcleanstrong's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I would work for a company who has there stuff in order. You're telling me both these practices don't know how to hire a NP to their practice?? Plus, you have to pay your own malpractice?? I would...

  18. Down and out

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Db2000's topic in General Nursing

    Im in the ER, part of the job that excites me is not knowing what will walk through that door next!! I have strengths and weaknesses (peds). So one thing I do is when I have some down time to read up...

  19. Down and out

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Db2000's topic in General Nursing

    Tell us more about your job. What causes you to have panic attacks? What area are you in? What do you feel incompetent about? Working nights is hard, I've been there and takes a lot of social life...

  20. Injury at work. Help!

    YoutubeTheNP replied to Scared_nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Don't worry so much !! You should have filed a report right away since it occurred at work. Besides the point, you're risk of anything is quite low. You were probably vaccinated against Hep B in high...

  24. Drug level monitoring frequency

    YoutubeTheNP replied to nurselove757's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    good point, but then again that is why we are required to get CMEs so we can stay in the loop of new things. Maybe take an in depth pharmacology review as a cme, it's good to know these

  25. What direction in APRN

    YoutubeTheNP replied to somethingwitty's topic in Advanced Practice

    Im in the ER, I learned how to intubate just by watching the docs do it when I was an RN. When I was in NP school I read the textbooks that explain it. When I became an NP I actually did it. I also...
