  1. Male ED nurses in the GYn room

    I don't think anyone really LIKES to do these exams, but you chose the profession...expect them. As a health professional, I don't see this topic or the above poster's comment about "crotches", as very appropriate. It's actually quite rude.
  2. Vancouver v.s Victoria?

    As you are doing your practicum in Aboriginal Health, as much as you would like to be closer to your boyfriend, I think you are better off on the Island. Vancouver just doesn't have the aboriginal population like Vancouver Island does. There are MAN...
  3. So sad...

    I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I'm pretty much in the same boat too! I've been working my butt off doing pre-reqs so that I could have a chance of admission this September. The college advisors "advised" me to re-do my English 12, to get a b...
  4. Anywhere other than the hospital!!!

    Thanks for the help Fiona59. I've never heard of those clinics, I will have to do some research to learn more. I'm also very interested in Ob/Gyn, so I may look into working in a clinic or office. Who knows, maybe I will love working in the hospital....
  5. Anywhere other than the hospital!!!

    I currently work at my local hospital as a unit clerk, but will be going to school for nursing this September. I fully understand the duties of nurses in a hospital setting, and am not sure if this is the place where I would like to work for the next...
  6. US citizen giving birth in Canada

    Canada's so-called "FREE" healthcare costs me $75 a month regardless if I use it or not. I may never go to the hospital or doctors, yet I still have to pay $75 a month to be able to have healthcare available to me in case of emergency, sickness etc. ...
  7. piercings at work

    At the hospital where I work, there are no rules about piercings or tattoos. Obviously if someone had there whole face tattooed, then the manager would most likely not hire them as it would be a little frightening! There are tons of girls, and guys, ...
  8. Any Canadian Labour and Delivery Nurses??

    Thanks nessy, your info is just what I needed to know. Have you taken any courses at BCIT? 12 weeks would be good! I think the BCNU will pay the cost or partial cost of a nursing course too, but I'd have to look into it. Thanks again!
  9. Hello, I am not yet a student, but am hoping to start a 4 yr degree program in September of 2007, here on Vancouver Island. Ultimately, I would like to become a midwife, but would love to start off in L & D or Ob/Gyn. I am posting this on here b...
  10. Bc ???

    Hello All, I currently work as a unit clerk on Vancouver Island, in BC. I have only worked as a UC for the past 3 months, but I can tell you that BC is in desperate need of nurses. I've decided to go back to school next year for my BScN, and I can b...
  11. Unit Clerks are Useless!

    Thanks for all of your input! I really appreciate what other have said. It's nice to know that nurses do value and respect unit clerks. Like others have said, this has shown me how to respect everyone's duties in the hospital. From the doctors to the...
  12. Unit Clerks are Useless!

    Hello Everyone, I am a Unit Clerk working in B.C., and I will be entering into the BsN program next year. I have just recently become a unit clerk, after an 8 month course through the local college. What I want to know is if the majority of nurses v...
  13. How many people actually have PDA's?

    I will be attending school to become an LPN, but right now I work as a Unit Clerk. I purchased a Palm Tungsten E2, and I use it EVERY day. I use it to look up drug names, when I can't make out the Dr's writing, or when I'm not sure if the drug is giv...
  14. Steth that wont hurt your ears....?

    I have just purchased a Prestige Medical traditional sprague (with the dual tubes). I just bought it off the internet, so I have yet to try it out. Is this an alright stethoscope for a student????
