To start with, I work on a med surg floor that takes progressive care patients. I was assigned 3 fairly sick and busy progressive and one general care patient. From 7:30-10 AM today, the wife of my general care patient called the nurses station twice asking for an update from the nurse. I was obviously busy doing meds/assessments and my coworker related such and told her I would call back. She was rude to my coworker about it but I literally had my hands full and could not come to the phone. Around 10, I’m all caught up and get to sit down, the phone rings and I pick up, it’s the patients daughter now. I give her the update and while I’m speaking to her, the wife calls AGAIN. When I’m done talking about patient, I ask her if she can pass along this update to the wife who has called multiple times, and in the future if just one of them could call because I’m busy working with my patients during my shift. Manager comes up to me later and tells me the daughter reported me for this to the
So my hospital will pay entirely for my RN to BSN program. Which is completely online. It will take between 12-16 months. As soon as the hospital pays its first tuition payment, I’ll be committed to another two years. I’m in NICU with 3.5 years at my current hospital. I don’t really want to start school again, but also I feel I should take advantage. My husband and I talk often about relocating, but I don’t really think we will go anywhere/sell our house before 2 years. Is it worth it to get the BSN? I feel maybe “someday” I’ll want something other than bedside. Or perhaps NP. What are your thoughts? I don’t believe I’ll get a raise once I get the degree. submitted by /u/littlesistur [link] [comments]

Good evening everyone, I'm a high school math teacher with five years experience, three of those as department leader. I've been at a low performing school where admin's only concern is the graduation rate, so there's no attendance policy, no cell phone policy, we're not allowed to have deadlines on anything, 50% minimum on everything even if they do nothing, and we're strongly encouraged not to assign homework because it becomes our fault when they don't do it and they don't pass. As soon as spring break was done, teachers would start getting told to create worksheet packets for students to take home and bring back so you could give them a passing grade. When I could get students to pay attention, they'd talk about how they understood the way I explained things, but I spent most of the time trying to convince them to care about their education and to pay attention. Now I'm getting the opportunity to teach at a high performing school and I know things are going to be different. I'm con
In compliance with the requirement for opportunity for public comment on proposed data collection projects of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, HRSA announces plans to submit an Information Collection Request (ICR), described below, to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Prior to submitting the ICR to OMB, HRSA seeks comments from the public regarding the burden estimate, below, or any other aspect of the ICR.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing that a proposed collection of information has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, Agency, or we) has determined that RASUVO (methotrexate) solution, 27.5 milligrams (mg)/ 0.55 milliliter (mL) (27.5 mg/0.55 mL), was not withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination will allow FDA to approve abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) for RASUVO (methotrexate) solution, 27.5 mg/0.55 mL (27.5 mg/0.55 mL), if all other legal and regulatory requirements are met.
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) intends to request from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) an extension of approval for an umbrella generic clearance for information collections related to ACF program office monitoring activities. ACF programs promote the economic and social well-being of families, children, individuals, and communities. The Generic for ACF Program Monitoring Activities allows ACF program offices to collect standardized information from recipients that receive federal funds to ensure oversight, evaluation, support purposes, and stewardship of federal funds. There are no changes proposed to the terms of the generic. Burden estimates have been updated.
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the Department is proposing a revision of a currently approved information collection request (ICR).
I work in outpatient oncology. Our pharmacy frequently makes mistakes on chemo/immunotherapy drugs. For example, today they sent my drug out mixed in a 100ml bag instead of a 250ml bag. The medication label on the bag stated it was 260ml to be infused over 1 hour. So if I hadn’t noticed the error, I would have programmed the drug according to the pharmacy label and it would have infused in 20 minutes instead of an hour because the volume was incorrect. This is not the first or second or third time this has happened. I’ve reported it on an incident report each time and nothing happens. Who can I report this to?

TL;DR: A private school charging about $40,000 per year is opening in Edmond, Oklahoma this August that replaces most traditional classroom instruction with AI-powered learning software . Students spend roughly 2 hours a day on core academics using AI, while the rest of the day focuses on projects, life skills, entrepreneurship, and other enrichment with adult guides instead of traditional teachers. The school claims students learn up to twice as fast , but that claim has not yet been independently verified. While headlines say the school has “no teachers,” adults are still present to coach, supervise, and support students—they simply aren’t delivering most academic instruction. https://oklahomawatch.org/2026/07/21/a-40000-per-year-ai-school-with-no-teachers-is-opening-in-oklahoma-this-august/ submitted by /u/grannyknickersniffer [link] [comments]

From brand new, fresh outta high school techs trying to micromanage the nurses to grizzled middle-aged RNs trying to tell me he and his 25 year old protégé could've handled a belligerent patient better than I did, I'm already sick of the egos in the ED. Is it like this everywhere? I was excited about working in a team but was not expecting to work with the corniest people on the planet. Working med surg was terrible but at least my coworkers were chill. In ED I can't even talk to someone about how the norepi drip they handed off to me was underdosed and mis-documented without being completely brushed off with a DGAF/"the ED is the Wild West" attitude. Why's everyone think they are too cool for school down here. Please throw out your trash, we didn't even code anyone in this room. ED people please don't come at me 😅 I thought I was down with the chaos but I really wanna know if the sloppiness and egotistical BS are across the board. Even EMS wasn't this bad on those fronts.

I'm returning to a school where I worked for 6½ years before leaving 4 years ago to take a higher-paying job in another school. Unfortunately, that decision didn't work out the way I hoped. I've worked at two different schools over the past four years, and each year has brought difficult experiences. I've been unhappy ever since I left. Now I'm returning to the school I loved, but in a new role. I've told a few people, but not everyone knows yet. I'm looking for a funny, slightly snarky response for when people ask why I came back. Some of the people that will ask are just looking for gossip, and I don't feel like sharing everything I've been through. I am not good at thinking in the moment. I have been in the same school district the entire time. I was a higher ranked school. submitted by /u/Skittle_13 [link] [comments]
Title pretty much sums it up. I left LTC to work at a doctors office/clinic and figured I would love it. The job itself? Great. The workload and schedule? So much better. It’s even closer to home for me (I was driving an hour, now only 25 ish minutes.) Problem? I feel like the biggest idiot in the room. I work with two other nurses, who are also new to the job but a couple weeks ahead of me. It seems like I’m just making mistake after mistake. Little things that just add up. I’m not exactly amazing at drawing blood/labs either considering I just didn’t do it a lot at my last job, which is a whole problem in itself. These girls are so frustrated with me when I’m truly trying my best. I’ve noticed it in the tones of voice when speaking to me and how they act around me vs each other. I’ve seen all the little head shakes and eye rolls they give each other when I truly have no idea what I did wrong, and I know it’s directed towards me. Even when I’m trying to help with simple things I know
This will be my 5th year teaching in a couple weeks, and I’ve made a lot of changes over the years to improve my teaching, but this year I’m gonna go for something really big. No Chromebooks allowed on the desks during notes (open or closed) they have to be done on paper, no Chromebooks allowed during pretty much any activity aside from webquests and specific stuff where they need it. They technically have to open their chromebook to make a bathroom pass BUT NO! I will manually make one for them if they raise their hand. I teach 12th grade and even though I seat students in groups and encourage discussion in activities I have witnessed them just using ai and technology to crutch their way past meaningful learning. I think we have all seen the data come out on how reliant the current generation has gotten on technology, so I am really going to go in hard on paper and pencil or verbal discussions this year. I want the kids to see each other’s faces and actually talk to each other, not lo
This current generation is out of control. That’s nothing knew on this sub. But has anybody stopped to ask why?

I’m a recent graduate with a Bachelor’s Degree competing for teaching jobs in a rural job market I repeatedly face immense competition in. On top of that, I can’t afford to get out of it really. My savings drained quite a bit during student teaching. Drained even more this summer after a death in the family. So I couldn’t move for the right opportunity even if I wanted to. I keep applying for jobs. I could only send about ten applications out. I only scored one interview. They passed me over for someone else with more experience. The other nine didn’t even call me back to interview me before they filled those positions. And on the rare occasion that I would hear back from a school, they always want to talk about a different job I didn’t apply for. And it’s always either a SPED teacher, a substitute teacher, or a paraprofessional. I found out also that literally all of my other classmates have their own teaching jobs. I’m literally the only one who doesn’t have a teaching job. My first
I don’t want to argue, so PLEASE don’t respond if you’re in support of AI in EDU. My principal just emailed me and said she’d send me to a training about implementing AI in the classrooms and schools because I am one of the most anti-AI teachers in the school. I genuinely am so annoyed because while I can see and speak to others of benefits of AI, at present the benefits don’t outweigh the disadvantages.

Patient last night was in psychosis. Could not redirect to save my life. They were convinced I was holding them hostage in my apartment and I was a murderer who ate babies. (All the nurses taking care of this person held this role.) Meds barely touched them. Dex drip, Q4hr dropirodol, zyprexa. Near the start of shift I noticed HR in low 100s and RR at 28. Went to check and the IV tubing looks like this. They had bitten clean through it. Luckily it was just the primary infusion and not the actual IV. Pt was restrained and it was going into a midline in the upper arm. Honestly, I was pretty impressed. Had to take a picture because it was just too much. Later they managed to get a restraint off with their teeth. Legit impressed, even though it was a very tiring and frustrating shift. submitted by /u/yolacowgirl [link] [comments]
I need a new job bad. My current job is draining the life out of me. I am living in Los Angeles right now but have previously lived in Asheville, NC and miss the seasons, green space, ability to have a backyard and garden, and a few friends. I am also interested in learning a new specialty (endoscopy). However, I have another potential offer in San Diego at an eye surgery center I have worked per diem shifts at. It is a small team and is more limited in terms of what types of procedures they do (mostly cataracts/blephs), but obviously higher base pay. I know the base pay might seem like the obvious decider, but I am also considering COL in each location, the value of getting trained in endoscopy, and the bonuses at the NC job.

So, in May about 3 weeks before school ended I was informed that my position as a Middle School Social Studies teacher was being eliminated due to low student enrollment. I have had one interview since then, and have applied to a grand total of 6-8 jobs since then, which are literally all the openings that I have found across multiple platforms and I am terrified that my career is screwed. A bit of history, I graduated in 2020 and found my first position in 2021 after schools figured out how to handle COVID a bit better. I found my first job working as a Special Education parapro for a charter school, which quickly turned into me being the Special Education teacher on a long term sub permit working toward certification. I met my now fiancé and left that job after 2 years, worked for another charter school nearby that was miserable. I left after one year, and finally found a Social Studies position at *another* charter school. I had already begun to feel like me working at charters was
Hi there! I've been thinking about this lately. I'm a teacher (a new mom) and when I go back to work, I'm considering making my lunch break (and maybe even one of my recesses when possible) my dedicated "me time." Instead of spending every lunch in the staff room laughing and socializing. I'd love to sit (in my classroom) somewhere quiet with my headphones, watch part of a comfort show, and decorate in my happy planner. Planning has become a creative hobby for me—decorating pages with stickers, washi tape, writing little memories, etc. It's something that genuinely helps me relax. Part of me wonders if I'd feel guilty taking that time for myself, but another part thinks it might actually make me a happier, more refreshed teacher for the afternoon. Do any of you intentionally protect your lunch break for yourself... For your personal hobbies If so, what do you do? * Read? * Journal? * Knit or crochet? * Work in a planner? * Watch a show? * Sit in silence? * Something else? Has having
Recently our manager has told us we can no longer write directly on IV bags because the ink can potentially seep through into the fluid.

Hi everyone, I'm exploring a career change into education at the high school level in Washington State. My goal is to become a high school educator/swim coach and eventually serve as an athletic director. A little about me, I'm a former collegiate student-athlete(swim D1) with a BBA in Marketing and Sales and a Master of Arts in Sport Management. I've been working in intercollegiate athletics for the past six years. As the years have gone by, I've started to feel like something is missing. I feel stuck behind a desk and miss working face-to-face with students and athletes. I'd love the opportunity to make a positive impact by educating, mentoring, and enhancing the overall student experience. I know teaching is no easy job, and an AD position would be administration, but truly want to embrace this challenge. With that in mind, what would be the best path to becoming a teacher in Washington State? Would an Alternative Route 3 certification program like the MAT program at Central Washing
I'm interested in pursuing precepting experience, and coaching and teaching new nurses. It sounds like a fun and interesting opportunity, but I've never been in a teaching like role, so I'm not sure how to tackle that. I kind of instinctively know how to do things off of muscle memory and clinical judgement I spent years learning. I don't want to say nursing at this point is second nature, but it's more of something I do, not something I consciously and meticulously analyze. So how can I be a good teacher? submitted by /u/princessnokingdom [link] [comments]
I finally got a new job—same specialty (Med-Surg), totally different hospital system—and I am completely flabbergasted. We started the shift with 4 nurses and 3 techs for only 11 patients. On top of that? The majority of these patients are completely ambulatory. Like... holy moly, I’m actually bored. The only real hurdle I’m hitting right now is getting used to Epic. Meanwhile, all my new coworkers are constantly complaining about how "awful" and "terrible" it is here, and how management expects "so much" from us. I just sit there in silence because coming from my last job, this feels like a walk in the park. It's so easy I don't know what to do with myself.

I’m a first-year elementary PE teacher, and I honestly don’t know what to do. I work as the PE 2 teacher, meaning I co-teach with our PE 1 teacher. We are equal teachers, but I just go to a different school one day of the week. From the beginning of the school year, I’ve had ongoing issues with our working relationship. Some examples: - Being yelled at by my co teacher and belittled in front of the kids. That I need to go away and worry about other things. - He would restart activities after I had already explained them because he wanted to explain them himself. - He would interrupt me while I was teaching. - He would take over lessons I was leading. - If students misbehaved during my class, he would step in instead of allowing me to handle classroom management myself. Please understand that I know it may seem like this is just a situation where I don’t know what I’m doing but I PROMISE I can do this job. My co teacher is a big control freak who not only disrespects me but our students
Hi there. I am a 57 year old who retired 3 years ago from teaching high school and community college. I am "double dipping" in another state as the retire/rehire rules are strict where we were. Both my wife and I retired. I intend to teach high school (kinda at my wits end with the job with over 30 years), but I will be 58-59 when I leave it for good. Where we live there is scant college jobs for me to say adjunct like I used to. I am despairing. On the one hand, I am grateful we can afford for me to stop working and just basically be a Home Depot greeter. On the other, I wanted to continue doing something professional in the white collar world. While I have my doctoral degree, tenure track will not be an option for me unless we moved. Then there is ageism. My wife wants me to leave and just do the Home Depot thing. We spent many summers in Spain and Mexico, and she wishes to travel more often. But I am really struggling to let go.

It was supposed to be better. I did 3 years in med-surg. I did 6 years in the ER. I had enough of the patient abuse, the abuse from doctors, the abuse from leadership. I thought it would be better, so I got a desk job as an assessment nurse. My orientation was a complete mess, i basically had to wing it on my own. The patients are still abusive, just over the phone now. My manager is completely useless, but micromanages us all. The job is essentially impossible when it comes to making my daily quotas for assessments. I’m a year in, and I honestly am hating it. So what next, because I’m out of ideas when it comes to nursing.

I can't remember the name, but I remember that the colors had names like Strawberry and Cotton Candy and Bubble Gum, which the program spoke aloud in a very childish voice, and it was pre-loaded with scenes and drag-and-drop clipart of animals and other objects. It also had some kind of functionality where you could type in narration and create story pages. Very similar to Storybook Weaver, but I don't think it actually was Storybook Weaver.

I feel like a bad preceptor today. I’m a med surg nurse with a little under 2 years experience and I have my first orientee. She’s been with me for a little over a month and she’s doing really well. She’s at the point where I go with her for her first assessment and med pass, but for the rest of the shift I pretty much let her do her thing and just go with her for new skills or answer any questions she has. Today we worked together and we had the same patient group from the prior day with 2 new patients. One of the new ones wasn’t very high acuity but the other was due to oxygen needs. The high acuity patient ended up needing a transfer to a higher level of care and long story short, I was basically babysitting that patient for 4ish hours of the shift until his prog bed was ready. He went in spurts of increasing oxygen needs, had multiple trips by RT and the physician to bedside to reassess etc etc during that time. While I was handling that she was carrying on with the other 4 patient
hi, i’m only two years in as a medsurg RN and it’s honestly been draining me… i’ve just been dreading work every shift and i feel like crying everytime i have to go to work… i feel so tired and i can’t even call in anymore because we accrue like 2 hours every paycheck (paid biweekly) idk what to do anymore because i feel like i’m getting sicker & sicker the more i work this job but i’m also in debt i haven’t had a general health checkup yet for the past 3 years (pls don’t judge) bc i just lost all motivation and i’m also scared to go to the doctor and find out that i have many health issues (it’s also so hard to schedule one) i can’t quit because i’m in severe debt and it’s funny bc i wished for this job but i’m not sure if i’m really happy with it submitted by /u/sprinklecelest [link] [comments]
