"Perhaps I'm old and tired, but I always think that the chances of finding out what really is going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say hang the sense of it and just keep yourself occupied." -Douglas Adams
So I’m spending the week in New Jersey (outside of Philadelphia) with LYC. I’m trying to think of the best way to describe it. It’s not technically a vacation cause one, it’s Jersey and two, LYC has to work because he has a job and all that jazz. We don’t really have any tourist type [...]
Orientation day 1 and 2 went well but there’s tons to do and not the best explanation of how or why to do things. It’s amusing (okay annoying) how quickly nurse recruiters and educators forget what it’s like to be a newbie. Yes, we honestly need you to explain what POC (point of care) is. [...]
