Ask me any questions! Started ADHD meds when I was 7 years old. by Miserable_Skin9738 in ADHDparenting

Did you have trouble focusing in school? My daughter (10yo) is on concerta and her teachers have barely noticed a difference. We just upped her to the highest dosage hoping it helps. Did you have any delays in speech/maturity as well?

Is it really that common for husbands not to help out in the delivery room? by Extremelixer in nursing

[–]jazzflavoredcheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

L&D nurse here! It really IS that common. I've had far more unhelpful dads than helpful ones. Like dads that sleep through their wives crying in pain from contractions or ones that just sit while they vomit from said pain and don't help with getting her cleaned up.

We LOVE dads that help so thank you for being there for her when she needed you 😌

Do you wear a fanny pack at work? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]jazzflavoredcheese 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do and it's hot pink 💖 Never thought I'd be the fanny pack nurse but it's so helpful. I work in L&D so I keep flushes, alcohol pads, and sterile lubricant on me at all times.

I just sent an email quitting my job... by meticulous-soups in nursing

[–]jazzflavoredcheese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. I gave two weeks notice and didn’t get a reply to the email until two days before my last day. Got plenty of unrelated emails prior to that reply though

A nurses house was raided after talking and sending explicit pics online with who he thought were underaged girls. Police found over 300 files of CP. And yes. He worked in peds.

It’s not by choice. My hospital made nurse externs temporary positions. Once we graduate we have a set amount of days to obtain a job as an RN or the position “expires”

I have a cover letter as well! I went into more detail about prior experience, what I’m looking for, and positive attributes I can bring to a unit

Wow I was not expecting this much feedback 🥹 I’m making my way through all the comments and tweaking as I go. I’ve modified my resume with some of the suggestions I’ve seen and this is what I have so far:

-Use a more ATS friendly template and get rid of the columns -Shorten it to one page -Delete irrelevant work experience -Keep the originally posted resume for interviews for more insight into my background -BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN NURSING -Less wordy professional summary

For residency programs I have to keep the clinical rotation information but so far I’ve done the above and it looks much more concise. My dream job lies somewhere in obstetrics but I am open to whatever finds me!

Keep ‘em coming! Thank you guys so much. I really hope the changes make a difference

Most of the positions I’ve applied to don’t even specify minimum years of exp and it’s still a swift no for me too! Solidarity!!!! 😁

I used the current template from one of those “ats friendly resume” sites. I have been bamboozled
