   ZeeGeez7300 replied to BeeGeeRN's topic in NP Students

   I am an alumni of CCN's RN-BSN online program interested in starting the FNP program in May or July. I've been hesitant for the last year about enrollment, so I've been looking at other schools. I'm fine with the expectations for the online program a...

   I apologize, Aeauooo, what is your point? I think that I have addressed every point that I have read relative to the question, as graciously and professionally as I know to be. I just put 'MY interpretation of the situation' in response to the INITIA...

3. nurse strikes

   ZeeGeez7300 replied to mistydave's topic in General Nursing

   If these workers are so anti-union, they should refuse their overtime pay, refuse paid holidays, refuse paid statutory holiday pay, refuse health and dental benefits and they should refuse disability pay if they should ever become injured. Unions got...

   Be happy then, but others in our profession may find your mercenary attitude offensive. First off, all was said to convey MY happiness (with my decision) and say that I used to feel the same defeat as a staff nurse; but don't ask me to sacrifice my ...

   Dude, don't pick pieces and parts. All these statements responded to what was being said...I said from beginning to end that I understand the union nurses view, but don't expect other nurses to do it, too. The point remains the same: Don't expect eve...

   This is funny! So called professionals acting like children with name calling... It didn't bother me when I was a child, and it sure doesn't bother me now! I have yet to meet ANYONE who will WORK for free! Most people don't want to work if given the...

8. Single mom going to nursing school. Is it possble?

   ZeeGeez7300 replied to sahmwannabe's topic in Career Support

   It is possible. Like anything else, you have to want it because it won't be easy. I started RN school when my son was 3 months old! I was a single parent, so I received all the financial aid/assistance (incl. housing, food, child support, etc.) that ...

   In response to the fact that management already has the up on strikes, and they are only bringing in 'warm bodies' for patient care...Duh?! I don't care who you are, or what arena you work in, you should NEVER put your trust in the fact that that com...

10. nurse strikes

    ZeeGeez7300 replied to mistydave's topic in General Nursing

    When nurses strike what happens to the patients in the hospital at the time? Do they just go without care? Are they transferred to another hospital? Why is it unwise for a travel nurse to fill in for striking nurses? Doesn't someone have to care ...
