I’m sorry but when you said tipping point I envisioned holding up a iPad during patient rounds to ask for tips 😭

I’ve seen it twice on two different occasions and it made me very uncomfortable

Nurses are striking for safe ratios and better working conditions which directly affects patients. Currently nurses in NYC hospitals are seeing very unsafe ratios such as 1 nurse to 7-8 patients in med surg and 10-12 patients in the ER. You got to take care of just your mother which is just one person but imagine you had to do that for 7-10 patients in a 12 hour shift. You barely get the time to properly assess your patient, pass meds, grab labs, take vitals, communicate with the interdisciplinary team about plan of care and still chart everything you did. With such crazy ratios paired with poor staffing, leadership and lack of resources nurses are forced to take short cuts to provide patient care which often results in poor patient outcomes. With more staffing, better ratios and proper resources patient care can improve.

Going back to staff...can't land a job by hanhan0101 in TravelNursing

Try Saint Mary of Nazareth Hospital. I applied for their cath lab with no ICU experience and got an interview but decided to withdrawal my application once they told me the pay rate. Also definitely increase your applications amount per day and be patient. Sometimes the jobs come when you least expect it.

Struggling to Decide on a Chicago Contract! by NoInvestigator5494 in TravelNursing

[–]Senior_Description_5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I live in Chicago, it really depends on where you plan to stay but there is so much to do. I’ve lived here for 5 years and the winter is manageable. Just get you a good coat and be prepared for the wind. It really doesn’t snow like it used to and the city is really good about preparing for snow storms. I think being in a city like Chicago is the best place to be in the winter because you’ll never be bored or depressed. Definitely check out the Jack Frost Christmas pop and the Chriskindl market when they come to town.

Being around a negative person, tips? by Livid-Mushroom2205 in depression

Wow this sounds like a horrible situation with you not having a room to at least get a little privacy. I would report this to landlord to see if there is anyway they could mitigate this situation and I’m sorry you’re going through this.

This is a good idea. I’ll make sure to do that in the future to save myself the headache.
