  3. Already Have A BA, Getting ADN

    You might want to look into an accelerated BSN program. They are usually around 18 mo- 2 years, and when you are done you have a BSN instead of a ADN. These programs are technically designed for people who have BS "in a related field", which is a b...
  4. Can not use electronic stethoscope for boards

    What everyone else said. If you are legit disabled and its documented, you can and must be allowed to use all equipment pertaining to your disability. They have to let you, if not its discrimination and they know it. They obviously have no idea wh...
  5. Fake nails are disgusting for a nurse to have because of all of the bacteria, constant hand washing, and all other features that working as a nurse entails. You should absolutely not have fake nails.... ever. Not only is it just gross to think abou...
  6. A little humor. You might be from Illinois if...

    Its ok, the rest of us that don't live in Chicago don't even consider Chicago and the surrounding areas a part of Illinois either. Especially when, for half of the state its closer, and more fun to go to STL than it is to drive 4 hours to Chicago.....
  7. Well I can't really pass judgment on the alcohol, b/c I love my beer, and it loves me. But if she smokes weed too.... She is just an idiot. Having said that, I personally believe that weed is much safer than alcohol overall, and should and pretty m...
  8. Best Way to Learn Spanish?

    A +1 for using Rosetta Stone. All others pale in comparison. Books are useless, drill based junk 99% of the time. I learned Arabic with Rosetta Stone in about 6 months. So I'm pretty sure you can learn something as easy as Spanish with it. OR....
  9. Most people have absolutely no idea what they are talking about, or are just complete and udder morons. Haven't you managed to figure that one out yet boys and girls. Sheeple just repeat what they hear from their brother's friend's uncle's sister's...
  10. Yep- Its called the "blood choke". I take it you never watch UFC? LOL. Who knew that military training would yield answers to nursing questions. LOL
  11. This kind of irked me !

    1.) Lighten up 2.) If that really bothered you all that much you better develop alot thicker skin than that really quick or you're going to hate life as a nurse. 3.) People will always irk you. Its what they do. 4.) If this really bothered yo...
  12. Need encouragement and advice

    Most, if not all people have trouble with AP. Honestly, if you are having that much trouble, and by no means am I telling you to quit, maybe you should finish that class and other difficult prereqs before continuing. I didn't do it that way at all ...
  13. Nursing, the field of medicine or customer service?

    I have always tried to be as nice as I can, but when you have a bunch of patients, and the family/friends are in the way or interfering with the patients recovery/treatment in any way..... Its time for them to go. I have been told I would be fired 1...
  14. How're your backs doing guys?

    Wrists, shoulders, neck, knees, back, ankles and elbows take turns hurting whenever they feel like it. A good day is when I wake up and only 1 of them hurts a little bit. Blame it on the sports, powerlifting, or all the crazy Marine Corps stuff I'v...
  15. Predominately White Shoes....

    Right now, Finish Line has Nike Shox in the clearance section online for $80. That might be high for you, but they are closed cell with no mesh, and they are most white, with a little silver. I just got them. I already went thru 2 other pairs of ...
