What do I do? Work or SAHM?

Currently my first born just started kindergarten, my second is 3 and going to start Mother’s Day out 3 half days a week. Everyone keeps asking me, what are you going to do? Honestly I’m not sure! If it was up to me, I would want one more baby, but my husband says no. He is fine with whatever I want to do or “not do”. I’m one prerequisite class and HESI test away from being able to attend nursing school if I so please. But I’m so torn on if I could truly be a working mom or not. I love my life, and I don’t want this period of life to end. Part of me just wants to live on easy mode and be a SAHM forever and part of me knows I can accomplish a fulfilling career in nursing. I don’t know what I want. HELP!

Urgent Care Pearls

Hi everyone! I’m an urgent care physician for over 8 years and recently started a YouTube channel called Urgent Care Pearls.

I created it specifically for providers working in urgent care, focusing on the things that actually come up during a busy shift: clinical pearls, common mistakes, procedures, red flags, and those judgment calls that aren’t always covered well in textbooks.

I try to keep the videos practical and grounded in what we actually see day to day.

If that sounds useful, feel free to check out Urgent Care Pearls on YouTube. I appreciate your support!

I’d also love to hear what topics or cases you’d want covered next. I’m always looking for ideas from other UC providers!

Accepted an NJ RN position, but a NY opportunity just came up—what should I do?

I accepted an at-will nursing position in NJ hospital in late July and have already completed the pre-boarding process, including the background check and drug test. My orientation is scheduled to start in late September. I have not started working yet.

Today, I received an email from a recruiter about a job fair at a NY hospital. If I receive an offer, would I be able to accept it even though I’ve already accepted the NJ position? If I decide to take the NY position instead, what potential consequences could I face, and how should I go about withdrawing from the NJ position professionally?

Unit Culture & Workflow: How are the staffing ratios and team support on Med floor?

Orientation: Anything specific to keep in mind during preceptor shifts or Epic workflow here?

Commute & Parking: Best/most realistic parking tips or transit routes for Streeterville shifts?

Any advice, tips, or real-talk about what to expect would be super appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Travel nurses — what do you do AFTER finding a furnished rental?

Let's say you find a place on Furnished Finder, Ohana, Airbnb, Facebook, etc., but you're currently out of state and can't see it yourself.

Before sending the deposit, what do you actually do to make sure the place is legit and matches the listing?

Have you ever:

  • Had someone go see it for you?
  • Asked for a live video walkthrough?
  • Stayed in a hotel first?
  • Sent the deposit without seeing it?
  • Arrived and discovered something wasn't as advertised?

I'm especially interested in NYC/NY assignments. I'm researching a potential solution to this problem and would love to hear what people actually do.
