  1. Placed on Performance Improvement Plan and Angry

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

    I think every state except for Montana is a "at will" employer state. In order to win a lawsuit against an employer, you have to be able to prove that they fired you based on something like...

  2. No alcohol. NONE

    Insperation replied to Nursebry91's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You'll get used to it. You'll come up with an answer that you like. Also, you start to realize that people really don't care. They're more worried about

  3. Are new grad RNs able to get a job in home health ?

    Insperation replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Oh ok... I reread what OP said...Are they likely to? I guess not. But since I've been a nurse, I've seen every single specialty hire a new grad RN..except for maybe a procedure type like cath lab or...

  4. Is switching from a Biology degree to BSN while in undergrad worth it?

    Insperation replied to iopmoris's topic in Nursing Career

    Yah talk to your counselor, see what transfers over and go from

  5. Are new grad RNs able to get a job in home health ?

    Insperation replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in First Year After Licensure

    My friend was having a rough time getting a job in Hawaii. Her first job turned out to be home health. I think she's still doing it. As long as you are a RN, you can work anywhere that hires a...

  6. Covered Up a Narcotic Med Error

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

    How was she worse because she received a 10 mg roxi? I don't think they have any grounds to sue you but I'm not a lawyer. What damages would they claim? Ohh my wife was knocked out and a little loopy...

  7. Lost newish grad

    Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Oh maybe in like treatment centers or something that is said. But actually the vernacular in meetings is pretty limited actually. You hear the same **** everywhere. And I've been in meetings all over...

  8. Lost newish grad

    Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in First Year After Licensure

    OP- Yah it sounds like you have some issues. Obviously you're aware of that. It's not like your on here blaming everyone else, you're consciously aware of your downfalls. Just know that I feel for...

  9. Lost newish grad

    Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I've been in recovery from drugs and alcohol for almost seven years and I've never heard that saying EVER, anywhere. I found it very ironic that OP is being criticized for her actual performance as a...

  10. Lost newish grad

    Insperation replied to Name9335's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I think the question I would ask you is: Do you believe that these concerns are legit? Just make sure you're advocating for yourself. In this profession, nurses truly can be cruel and NASTY. Your...

  11. Don't bring your misery to work!

    Insperation replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    my challenge is not taking work home, not the other way around. Work is for work. Why are you letting people bother you so much? Unless they are actually affecting the ability to do your job, just let...

  12. Why are they called, "Chucks?"

    Insperation replied to NPbyDay's topic in General Nursing

    I try to use them often to help my CNAs so they don't gossip about me in the camera room

  13. Black Sheep...time to leave?

    Insperation replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That sucks that people aren't being nice. But I don't see how any of this actually affects the ability to do your job. Work is work, it's not a social event. Maybe if you just focused on doing your...

  14. Hung my own blood! :-)

    Insperation replied to JBMmom's topic in General Nursing

    Good thing they didn't have a reaction...then you'd freak out too like ahhhh what's wrong with my

  15. What's your best 'Nurse Hack'?

    Insperation replied to KimasaurusRex's topic in General Nursing

    I'm always the dumbest person in the room. CNAs, patients, doctors, they are all smarter and more professional than I am. I am always there to learn from others. I let other people talk and I always...

  16. What's the real deal with Travel Nursing?

    Insperation replied to PatMac10,RN's topic in Travel

    What does ..."how much more a masters" mean? Maybe you should correct your own grammar before criticizing someone else. Plus, who cares? It's a online community, she's not a frekin PHd in English. I...

  17. Verbal order-Denied by resident

    Insperation replied to Traumamama02's topic in Emergency

    its not petty, it's good to know. I retract my skepticism regarding pulling propofol lol..probably shoulda just been a bystander on this topic

  18. Verbal order-Denied by resident

    Insperation replied to Traumamama02's topic in Emergency

    oh well ok. Yah I've never worked in the ER. And I have 1 year of med surg experience now...thank you very much :) I need to update my thing Even I work in the ER, I'm going to be very skeptical...

  19. Verbal order-Denied by resident

    Insperation replied to Traumamama02's topic in Emergency

    Who's the nurse who actually pulled the med from the pixus? I don't work in critical care but I would NEVER pull a narc for someone else, without myself actually administering. I guess that happens a...

  20. Breaching StaRN Contract

    Insperation replied to Bella_CO's topic in First Year After Licensure

    If they were contacting you and threatening to send you to collections, that's a different story. I've never actually heard of anyone having legal action taken against them from a hospital because of...

  21. Breaching StaRN Contract

    Insperation replied to Bella_CO's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I left a similiar situation at a simliar HCA hospital. People break their contracts there ALL the time. What are they gonna due...serve you with papers? Show up at your doorstep with a lawyer? I don't...

    Insperation replied to Yaadie's topic in General Nursing

  23. are you guys exhausted after your shift?

    Insperation replied to _zoubisoubisou_'s topic in Psychiatric

    This was a beautiful med surge gripe, I just wanted to say. You summed it up quite nicely. I've seen "mental health" units that seemed very slow and boring. Nurses were on their phones, youtubing and...

  24. Feel like a horrible nurse!

    Insperation replied to Verygreennurse's topic in General Nursing

    Seriously it's soo hard... I'm in my first 3 months on the floor and some days I just feel like a moron. I try to ask questions but everyone is so busy. I don't have 5 minutes to wait for the charge...
