Is it true that nurses want to leave the profession?
Karin Zonneveld posted a question in Community Questions
We know that nursing can be difficult and sometimes tiring, apart from the low salaries, the burnout, and more. But is it true that nurses want to leave the profession? Many nurses choose to stay because they care about their patients and helping other people. What is your individual case? Why are you a nurse? Would you change your job if you could? -

What are your favorite movies and TV shows about nurses? Do you recommend one? I just love how some movies really reflect nurses when they have a night shift and get home really tired. It makes it feel so real! But some other movies are about nurses doing their jobs and making difficult decisions; what do you think about all the drama in these cases?

In your opinion, what are the qualities that make nurses stand out? What makes a good nurse? Maybe patients have different opinions, so, as nurses, what do you think?

What watch do you like to use while doing your nursing job? I know there are many kinds, but one that can be pretty and, at the same time, useful, easy to clean, reliable, and comfortable. I specially enjoy one that I can take to the shower with me so I know I'm not late for my shift because of a long shower!

Welcome to the discussion forum on UV safety month! July is recognized as UV safety month to bring awareness to the dangers of UV radiation and the importance of sun safety. UV radiation is a form of energy from the sun that can damage our skin and eyes, leading to sunburns, premature aging, and an increased risk of skin cancer. So why is UV awareness important? Well, for starters, skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the United States, and UV exposure is the main cause. With the summer months in full swing, it’s the perfect time to talk about how we can protect ourselves and our loved ones from harmful UV rays. But let’s not forget the positive aspects of UV exposure either. Our bodies need UV radiation to produce vitamin D and maintain healthy bones. So how do we balance the benefits of UV exposure with the risks? Let’s discuss some tips for enjoying the sun safely: 1. Seek shade during peak hours: UV rays are strongest between 10 am and 4 pm, so try to stay in the shade during this time. 2. Wear protective clothing: Cover up with clothing, hats, and sunglasses to reduce UV exposure. 3. Use sunscreen: Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and apply it 15 minutes before going outside. 4. Don’t forget your lips: The skin on our lips is sensitive and can also get sunburned, so use a lip balm with SPF. 5. Be mindful of reflections: UV rays can reflect off surfaces such as water, sand, and snow, so take extra precautions in these environments. Now, let’s open up the discussion. Have you or someone you know been affected by UV exposure? What steps do you take to protect yourself from the sun? Let’s share our experiences and knowledge to raise awareness and promote UV safety. https://www.aad.org/member/advocacy/promote/uv-awareness

Hello to everyone. I want to encourage all my fellow nurses who do not have liability insurance to please get it. Unfortunately, we live in a litigious society, and you want to ensure you are covered.

trying to figure out why there isn't a med aide category
jessica j. posted a question in General Questions
hello i believe there would be and increase in the amount of job opportunities if there was a med aide position available for example it the med aide position is not filled by a med aide a lvn or rn can request the same position just have to accept they pay posted for the med aide. and also if and lvn or rn or med aide even request a cna position at cna pay of course we should be allowed to request it only because our credentials already include that of a cna or med aide. if you understand what im saying so like under an LVN profile it should be able to include med aide, cna and care giver. alot of facilities need med aides.- 2 replies
