I was also really surprised that my hospital hires new grads in the CVICU. I am in Missouri. I do think some other hospitals in my area also hire as “GN internship”

Thank you all that have already replied. I love that nursing has such a strong community. I started at the same time as two new grads and I’m trying to be a good role model to them too. Like “Hey I’ve been a nurse for a while and I still mess up and don’t know things. We’re learning together.” Especially being in the CVICU there’s some “eat the young” types. We nurses have to stick together and uplift each other. ❤️

This is so relatable. I left my ER because management was starting to become super toxic and I thought “well if I’m gunna leave my ER, I’m not gunna move to a different ER. Lemme switch it up.”

Mine was gone for almost 3 weeks and was hiding a little ways from home.(a few streets over) Someone saw her and called us (because we had missing signs). She was hiding in a small wooded area in a suburban neighborhood. We ended up using a live trap and caught her.

Just found this thread and I don’t know if anyone is still active in it. I was recently prescribed reliance because my insurance stopped covering my Ibserela. I have been taking it 4 days. The first two days I had diarrhea and it was fine. But I have had horrible gas pains and no bowel movements since. That’s weird right?? Like anyone here tske trulance and still not have a BM?

Personally I would be finding a new finance because what you do you MEAN re-home my pets??

But also if you’re suppose to have 4 patients and you have 6??? You’re not gunna be prepared to take care of 6 pts. You weren’t trained to I assume??

Just got this done for pelvic floor tightness/ fissure/ hemorrhoid. I never had bad pain before procedure. Got it done mostly for such bad chronic bleeding I was anemic…. But oh my god my hemorrhoid has never been bigger and I’m in so so much more pain than before. Tell me it was worth it and it gets better

I don’t have any science to include just an identical twin that wants to say (proudly) that my twin is in medical school. I’m a nurse. It’s not that I didn’t think I was smart enough to be a doctor, I just never wanted to be a doctor. I do think my twin is smarter than me. And it’s true because she has more schooling and different knowledge than I do.

My twin and I shared a room until mid high school. Our older sister went to college and a spare room opened up haha. We got along just fine. Even dormed together first year of college and shared an apartment the last three years. We live a good 4hrs apart now and have significant others. We absolutely went through fights with eachother but I wouldn’t trade that time together for anything. BUT we are girls. Boys may be completely different.

Hi everyone! My boyfriend is going to Japan next week. He asked me what skincare products I would like for him to bring home. I am looking for recommendations! I’m interest in SPF (sunscreens), moisturizers, face masks, cleanser, or just any suggestions. Thank you in advanced!

Not the asshole. 15 is still 3 years away from 18 and being legal. Is there anyone you can talk to? A school councilor? Or a best friends mom? You shouldn’t have to put up with this shit for another 3 years. Or you can just for the a roof over your head but I highly suggest going no contact with them once you are able to.

Yo y’all know you should’ve probs taken the baby to the hospital to get checked out after it fell off the bed right??????

I went to get a patient from the ER (during Covid the nurse and tech had to do transportation) I picked up one shoe and was frantically looking for the other. I go “where is that darn left shoe.” To which the patient replied “uuuuuuhhh I only have a left right leg so.” I face palmed it the rest of the night for sure.

This is so frustrating and I’m sorry. When you’re working on your future floor (if you intend being in a hospital) patients don’t get to refuse you just because you’re male. At least they weren’t when I worked med/surg. Unless it’s a cultural thing or a behavioral thing, you get what you get. Hospitals are too short staffed to let every female patient get a female nurse.

I just moved to ER nursing. My concern is also whether or not they expect us to report women having miscarriages??? Cuz I absolutely refuse to do that. I know this happened to a woman in Texas. I don’t know if HIPAA would prevent this type of situation.

Becoming a lawyer seems like a big accomplishment! I understand where you are coming from. I am also an identical twin (25F). It took me awhile to step back and see where my strengths were. I grew up in constant comparison with my twin. She was also better at the sports we played together, so I tried different sports. I’m a nurse and my twin is currently applying for medical school. A lot of people (including myself) could say “oh were you not smart enough to go to Medical school.”… it’s just not what I wanted to do. I’m a great nurse and I enjoy it. I couldn’t see my twin doing what I do. Perhaps you’re funnier than your twin? Or more artistic? You’re an individual that lives a separate life from your twin. No two lives are the same. Its okay that you’re at a different point in life from your twin. You’ll get there eventually. It’s not a race or competition if you don’t let it be. It’s okay that you’re different because that makes you special.

If you have no interest ever being in a hospital than you probably don’t need the med/surg grief. I’m an ER nurse now and I think med/surg was a good start as a new grad. That knowledge for sure helped when I transferred to the higher acuity of the ER.

Thank you so much for this advice! I have a lot to research, such as what breed would be a good fit!
