4. "oh. . .You're going to a COMMUNITY college?"

   nursejenni08BSN replied to Toodee's topic in California

   I really wish that everyone could put aside the pride and understand that it is not always about dollars and cents, just like it is not always about the name of the college that you attend. Yes, sometimes these things play a role in decision making,...

5. "oh. . .You're going to a COMMUNITY college?"

   nursejenni08BSN replied to Toodee's topic in California

   ADN or BSN???? I really think the important thing is that you go to school and FINISH. It is not the responsibility of the school or the program to make sure that you graduate and pass the NCLEX. The responsibility of the school is that they prepar...

9. Nursing and tattoos

   nursejenni08BSN replied to MelRN13's topic in General Nursing

   I think the whole professional argument comes out of the fact that some people (not saying that it is right) tend to pre-judge when they see tattoos and even non-traditional piercings. I personally have 3 which are all covered by my scrubs. I also ...

10. Starting Salary.

    nursejenni08BSN replied to indiawhitaker's topic in New Nurse

    Is there the same disparities in salaries for doctors as there is for nurses? (I really don't know the answer to this one) The type of work that nurses do should be valued and therefore compensated financially. Not only do we commit to many years ...

11. Start class in two days--Last minute words of wisdom? :)

    nursejenni08BSN replied to mjick's topic in General Nursing

    I'm from CA too, northern CA, and my school cleared us with the BRN to take the NCLEX once we passed the ERI, and then once we were graduated they sent our transcripts.... But I would start filing out the application to the BRN as soon as possible......

15. Bsn?

    nursejenni08BSN replied to nurseohio119's topic in General Nursing

    I just graduated in May 2008 with my BSN and I have my license as well. From my understanding sometimes the program also differs in school for example we studied public health nursing which I was told is not taught in ADN schools, but I'm not 100% s...
