2. Bullying in nursing school

   ConnielCanada replied to Dee112's topic in General Students

   I am really sorry to hear of your bullying. Despite what some have said, bullying is real and happens in schools all the time. I think it is a trickle down effect. They were bullied so they bully. It is not just nursing, it is all professions, it jus...

5. How old is too old to become a new RN?

   ConnielCanada replied to CathyH's topic in General Nursing

   I understand, my point was with hard work and a true passion, it can be done at any age. I have been working long and hard to follow my new dream. I get very put out by nay-sayers. Again I am a realist and I do not think things should be sugar coated...

6. How old is too old to become a new RN?

   ConnielCanada replied to CathyH's topic in General Nursing

   I have been working on the degree portion for quite some time while waiting on the actual program. I am currently a licensed midwife, (not a cnm) so clinical hours for the Masters program have already been worked out as to where. I have been working ...

8. Client vs Patient

   ConnielCanada replied to srercg's topic in General Nursing

   The only person in "control" of their health and well-being is the client. There is not a health care provider anywhere that is in "control" of another person. Health care providers all makes are providing a service, and clients of health care deser...

9. The film: Vaxxed.

   ConnielCanada replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

   I have absolutely no desire to get into this debate; however, I wanted to make note that name calling on any side of a debate is not a good thing. Whether you believe that vaccines are infallible, flawed or somewhere in between, when you make your ar...

    Our community colleges in the county where I live are all linked together and have a CEP program where you attend the CC and partner with a university to obtain your BSN, never having to leave the CC campus. The issue is as it is everywhere there are...

    ConnielCanada replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

    By the same token, don't let anyone shame you into pushing yourself beyond your limits simply because they are able to do it themselves. You have to think of yourself first." I stated in my first reply that taking care of yourself is number one....

12. 58 years old - Am I too old to start nursing school??

    ConnielCanada replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

    WOW is all I can say in regards to the continuation of perpetuating a serious issue. As a practicing midwife I see the same treatment of women having babies after the age of 26 by physicians. You are just too old to have a baby, and yet women are ha...

13. 58 years old - Am I too old to start nursing school??

    ConnielCanada replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

    I agree with Beth your health should be priority number one. As caregivers we a lot of times forget that important part of the story. I am 55 and a nursing student so I do not believe age is a factor. I know women in their 60's just now entering nurs...
