  1. hi, I have an assignment about role transitioning from school to the actual field, and it requires that I interview a nurse manager. If you don't mind answering some questions, please either pm me or reply here. These questions will pertain to your ...
  2. Crossed the line... or expected behavior?

    Why does the action of the radiologist speaking up to the SN have to be termed as "scolding" or "discipline"? How come not just... speaking up? It's not hard to say, "Excuse me, but I like to work in silence," or "Excuse me, I like to work in a quiet...
  3. Nursing Pin for $115

    eh. I wouldn't pay that price. a pin is a pin, how is it going to change the fact I made it through nursing school? I know who I am, I know what I did, I don't need a pin to confirm me that. SELF VALIDATION YO.
  4. Crossed the line... or expected behavior?

    as other people have already commented, none of us were there. but I think it is reasonable to expect the radiologist to SAY something if they found your talking the patient through the procedure to be disruptive. How are you supposed to know someone...

    Again, thank you so much for your responses, encouragement, and information. I really appreciate it. I can't wait until the day comes when I'll be leaving for PC, but I have a lot more research to do. Thanks, innumerably! Take care.

    that's funny that you have a word limit, is it a restriction from the allnurses forum itself? are you using quick reply? Yeah, I was reading similar topics on here asking about Peace Corps and they seem to be very accepting of RNs with little to no ...
  11. peace corps

    hello, I'm currently a pre-nursing student taking my requirements. I'll be submitting my application to join the nursing dept early next year. My question is, I want to join the Peace Corps, but will they take an RN that just graduated? Or would they...

    forgive me if I'm wrong but I assumed the NLN was the pre-admissions test deltech has applicants take? I was also looking at taking classes at the Stanton campus, so maybe the procedure is also different there, because after talking to a counselor I ...

    here's another question to add to the pile.. when is the deadline to apply to the nursing program in the spring? if not an exact date, any idea of whereabouts? Is applying to the nursing program the same as taking the NLN, or does the NLN come after?
