pitinan/123RF.com The COVID-19 pandemic has affected jobs in every sector of the economy. While initially it seemed that healthcare jobs would likely be among the least affected, even healthcare professionals have found their jobs affected.

Y’all it’s pandemic eatin’ time. While some of you are still getting no-contact delivery or curbside delivery, I’m trying to capitalize on all the groceries we bought and the meal/snack plan I made with bae. I’m not going to focus on what' I’ve been eating at home, because I really want to give you ideas for when you’re on a long-ass shift. My number one focus when planning work food is that I don’t want to have to touch it with my hands.

Today’s workforce includes multiple generations of employees all looking for something different from their benefits package. While meeting these disparate needs can be challenging, a comprehensive fertility benefit can support everyone from junior staffers learning about their fertility health to senior leadership managing menopause and low testosterone symptoms.

I have not worked since mid March. My last shift was preceded by 10 days of the busiest I can ever remember. The waits were hours long, it being high season for colds, flu, pneumonia. I did 5 straight shifts in triage, much of it alone. One week we had no COVID19 suspects. Then, a patient with cough, fever, SOB. The travel to Asia was not mentioned until I specifically asked about it.

This is an unsponsored guest post from Pocket Prep , makers of the app that will help you pass your next major exam like the TEAS, NCLEX, CCRN, PCCN, and others. —— Saying nurses are busy is like saying grass is green. Adding in the need to study for an exam or certification is just one more thing to deal with - studying is basically a part-time job when you’re a nursing student.

Cheers to another “Pandemic Edition” of the blog. As a direct result of the complete upheaval of day to day life in a post-COVID-19 world, I’m late on this post. My four year anniversary of becoming a Registered Nurse was actually in July. It’s now October and I’m using the better-late-than-never clause as my excuse. Disclaimers and Updates from NU Headquarters I think there are a few things to say first, disclaimers, I suppose.

For most, the focus during this time is just making it out of the program with adequate grades and knowledge.

I started this blog a long time ago with a post about my husband's experience with his cardiac stent. A bit over a year ago, he underwent a 4 vessel CABG by way of some mild chest pain and shortness of breath while bicycling. AFTER we cavorted around Italy. He has healed quite well, thanks, although not quite up to his own ridiculous standards of physical activity for a man 73-going-on-55.

An estimated 1.1 billion women worldwide will have experienced menopause by 2025. Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, and anxiety can be incredibly disruptive — and last for years. But despite its massive impact, little is being done to support those going through menopause in the workplace. In a recent survey, 70% of respondents said they have considered changing their employment to better manage symptoms — perhaps because only 8% received significant support from their employer related to meno

Luis Molinero Martínez/123RF.com Job interviews are like speed dates that result in marriage. Both sides spend the interview trying to develop enough insight to make an informed decision. Everyone shows off his/her best attributes while tactfully unveiling the other person’s worst. The dance ends with both parties asking themselves the same question: Do I want to spend my life with this person?
