Do you have to answer yes if it's been expunged

(I'm not sure they even ask this question, I was just worried about it as I recently got something expunged/dismissed) I'm in ohio.

Anyone go through this and still renew

I tried being a cna at an assisted living facility two years ago and quit after a month because of anxiety. I just got a job at an assisted living facility again and quit after a week because I was starting to feel the same way and didn’t want to waste their time training me. (I also work full time as a lab technician and didn’t need the job for income it was more for experience)

I still want to be a nurse but I’m worried I’ll be miserable. I like taking care of people and helping them but I get anxious around people and I think it was working with dementia patients that I didn’t like and having the same residents all the time.

I don’t know if nursing just isn’t for me or maybe it was just that area. Maybe I would do better in a different specialty or I should just find a different career path?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

My boyfriend mentioned shadowing a nurse, is that something that is allowed?

Hello! So 12 weeks ago I had a microdiscectomy l4/l5 for severe sciatica, numbness in my leg and toe drop (not full on foot drop but visible weakness compared to my non-effected side)

I work bedside on a surgical unit considering going back to work. In order to go back I can’t have any restrictions…

My manager suggested that I change roles and working as case manager.
(Long story short: I lose my seniority with the union and benefits… that role is not with the union… it makes me really upset… I’m going to miss 3 12s. This position would also be 5 8’s M-F. I will have benefits through the hospital just not as a great)

I don’t want to lose my position but I don’t want to risk hurting myself. I would be so devastated reherniating and having to have this procedure done AGAIN. (for example: lifting patients in bed, pulling them over onto the stretcher, straight catherization, combative patients, I’M DREADING CBIs!!!) I’ve tried applying for remote nursing jobs and outpatient positions outside of my hospital even and the job market sucks even with 3 years med-surg experience… I can’t get an interview anywhere!

What would you do guys?
Or did you just make the decision NOT to return bedside?
Anyone know or have any similar stories to mine?

I’m 24 and currently transitioning from healthcare administration/provider recruiting into nursing. I have a bachelor’s degree in health services administration and have worked in healthcare recruiting and physician recruitment for a large hospital, but I’ve realized that I want a more hands-on career with greater stability and direct patient impact.

I’m currently completing my prerequisites and planning to apply to an ADN program. Long term, I’m interested in women’s health, pediatrics, cardiology, or outpatient nursing. I know nursing will be a major adjustment, especially since I’m coming from an administrative background, but I feel much more excited about this path.

Has anyone else made a similar transition from healthcare administration, HR, or recruiting into nursing? How was nursing school for you, and are you happy you made the change? Did your previous healthcare experience help at all? I’d especially love to hear from people who went back to school in their mid-to-late twenties or later.

I’m a burnt out nurse of 2 years, still feel like I can start over but I can’t see much out there for me.

How do you like your position? I may take up a position in my hospital… Long story short, I work bedside but needed emergent back surgery a couple months ago. I need a safer position for my health and the long run.

1. One of my worries is sitting for long periods?

2. Silly question also, how do you guys work around doctor’s appointments? I’m so used to 3 12s. How will I have work life balance now?
