Hello everyone. Glad to be a part of nursing and to have a place to share. I have been nursing for 3 years now and still love it. I don't, however, care for the politics that go with it. By that I mean, dealing with coworkers who sit back and watch you work and then take credit for a job well done, and the lack of support. Don't get me wrong, I do work with some really awsome nurses, but then there are the others. Some of us have tried to be a guide for those who aren't self motivated, but to no avail. Anyway, I live in Wyoming for now. I'm not real enthused about nursing in NE WY. I'm looking to tavel so that I may broaden my horizens.

This is for boxerlewis, you might need to move around, I worked in a convalescent home as a regular CNA. Your right, the politics does wear you down. Thats's why I enjoyed working through registrys and I currently work at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, California, as a Hospital technician, and a nursing student, and I'm a float, which means I'm free from politics. You need a change.

Hi, my name is yesenia and I am a medical student in Norfolk,VA.

Thanx yesenia(jessie)

No matter where you work, you will find bad nurses, good nurses and better nurses. It is frustrating when you try hard and see others who don't seem to care. Sometimes you have to wonder why they even became nurses. You just have to do the best you can.
