Best wishes in nursing! I just finished over 20 years in
nursing (psychiatric crisis intervention -children/adult and family practice). Its sure changed alot since I graduated, but the one constant is great patients! So again, best wishes in your nursing journey!! |
Hi, good luck and congratulations. Nursing offers such a variety of opportunities. Nursing has changed a lot in 30 years, and will continue to change.
I have been a nurse 30 years, I started out on OB went to CCU for a long time, went back to birthin' babies, now I am a nursing supervisor. I am in grad school for a masters in Health Administration and Business Administration. After tonight I am having some doubts. We had our Health Economics midterm. NOT GOOD! I love grad school which is a good thing. I have 2 more years to go. I just don't know what I want to do when I grow up yet. Susan |
Me too. It's been 18 years for me. The whole 18 yrs in the hospital on an ortho/neuro/trauma unit - but mostly part time. I also do pediatric home care and substitute school nursing.
There is so much you can do - a great variety! |
i've done Labor and Delivery off and on since 1980! I love it but my back and shoulder just wont take it anymore. Plus i'm tired of being at the bottom of the totem pole of nights and weekends as we moved from base to base so much..............

Every time I see this thread, I think it's going to be a joke, as in "How many nurses does it take to screw in a light bulb?" |

OMG JILL!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought the SAME THING (we must kindred spirits), only I thought it would be something like, HOW MANY NURSES DOES IT TAKE TO KICK A DR'S BUTT But maybe that's cause I am a nurse 22years; ER/ICU/CathLab/Cardiac Rehab |

If the light bulb is located on your bedside call light, it going to be a lonely hospital stay. |

I am a second generation nurse, just finishing my 30th year.
I worked for the College of Medicine, teaching Residents how to behave around patients (with mioxed results), postpartum in a new hospital where i moved on to open new floors in gyn post-op, oncology in a hospital andthen in a huge group practice (getting my OCN, of which I was proud) and now I'm a school nurse. I take care of lots of premies & other with health issues who have grown up - tube feedings for those with swallowing issues, diabetics, immuno-compromised, highly allergic and asthmatic. I used to have one on a respirator. My job is to keep them as healthy as possible to maximize their time in the classroom so they can learn. |

I retired from OR nursing after 30 years of being 'the surgeons' handmaiden (NOT!). Actually, most of the surgeons I worked with over the years had great collections of jokes. Back before the days of being PC, most of them were a bit risque (but hilarous).
