I'm only doing my clinical rotation for nursing school (last semester thank goodness) so I have VERY limited experiences but had a woman come in today who bumped her hand at the bowling alley on a table. Rated her pain 2-3/10. What.....the.....hell...
The reason I ask is because something clicked in my head recently that hospice nursing might be for me. I am graduating in December and the rumor was that my final clinical rotation would be with Hospice. The more I thought about the more I warmed ...

Something on your resume or letters or something has to be throwing up a red flag. I'm still in school and will graduate in December but I had many friends who graduated from EKU this past December and everyone of them had jobs secured in January at...
I spent some time in the accelerated BSN program at EKU. Let me say run as fast as you can to Bellarmine. Outside of one or two faculty they as a group are horrible. I transferred to a different program because it sucked so bad. Several of my fri...
I completed my EMT-B license a couple of years before I started nursing school. I graduate with my nursing degree in December and I think anyone who tries to do both at the same time are either nuts are like punishment. More power to anyone willing...
Hi Everyone, I am in the process of applying to nursing school in an accelerated BSN program. I am trying to figure two more people to ask abou writing letters on my behalf. What I would like to know is are there any major buzz words that are impo...
Hi everyone, I've decided to go back to school to become an RN. I already have a BS in another field so I will be going the accelerated BSN route. I heard someone mention nursing informatics the other day and thought I would look to see what it is...
Hi Amanda, I would like to offer a bit of a different view on this. I have lost approx. 120 lbs over the past year and I can attest to the fact that a lot of people with weight issues struggle with portion control. These little snack packs are a gr...
A rather wide brush you paint with. I love it when people who make comments such as this lecture me on tolerance, being unbiased, and having an open mind. Tell me, how is the view from that Ivory Tower? Perhaps you view Christians the same way a ra...
I actually am in EMT training right now but decided 1/2 way through nursing is what I would rather do. I too love kids and think pediatric nursing is my way to go. I've realized over the last several months that I'm not a big fan of trauma. My fir...
I would like to put in a good word for my home town, Danville, Kentucky. It is one of the most charming places you would ever want to live. It has been named one of the top small towns in America and has wonderful people, character, and culture. H...
I would like to clarify that I have no desire to hide or change my accent. Like I said originally, I love being from the South and I love my voice. Heck, if anything it has been a conversation starter. I said I speak with all sorts of healthcare f...
Hi y'all (that's the way I would say it anyway) I'm planning to begin a nursing career in the fall of 2007 (accl. BSN program) and was wondering about something. I have a STRONG southern accent. I'm not ashamed of it, I love my accent. I had no id...
