:rotfl: Reminds me of that line in 'Something to Talk About' with Julia Roberts. "I have orgasms everyday! I'm just used to having them when you're not in the room." Back to topic. I don't subscribe to any, because I want to get the most bang fo...
Everyone associates nursing with caring, but I'm sure you've seen those that just "get by" or don't get involved. I feel that I'm a very caring person, but sometimes you get those patients that make it very difficult. There are so many ways to sho...

Honestly, it just doesn't interest me. I work Med/Tele/Onc, so I get half of it. I would rather do Med than Surg. Just not my thing. Open to anything....except that. :)

This came out too late for my friend, who suffered through her pregnancy with not knowing. She has the implant, through the trials, and has been better, although still having seizures almost daily. She just got a seizure dog...which is great! Thank...
I took the NLN (many moons ago) and had to score above the 50th percentile. I got a form in the mail from them that said how I did and how I compared to those in other ADN and BSN programs. Didn't you get that?
We've talked about this before here, but do you ever wonder why some places are offering huge sign-ons? Why don't they improve working conditions? They'd have nurses beating down the door! I was offered $10,000 for a three year commitment (tax free...
