1. Path from RPN to RN?

   VenaCava replied to trryt4ssasfgb34's topic in International

   If you almost finished your degree and your GPA isn't too horrendous, why not apply using your university grades? You can apply to go directly into the RN program instead of having to go for RPN then the bridge program.

3. best canadian province?

   VenaCava replied to sheraz86's topic in International

   Are you asking about Toronto? Yes, yes it is. People here think we're New York Jr. Always in a rush and never accommodating to others. Rent is ridiculous, buying a house even more so I go to school in the heart of downtown so I see the worst of the ...

   Don't come to Toronto! Big city attitudes and high cost of living. I'm outta here as soon as I graduate, moving to the west coast.

   VenaCava replied to futureRNJaz's topic in General Nursing

   Uhhh, sorry to break it to you, but Canada has one of the best health care systems in the world (I'm not being bias). You can't generalize about the conditions of hospitals in Canada when you're basing it on only one experience from your dad.

8. Nurses who smoke marijuana

   VenaCava replied to e4c5's topic in General Nursing

   I agree 100% I know a lot of people who smoke several times a day, for many years now, and if anything, MJ mellows them out and makes them more laid back. Sounds like he's battling a more severe addiction.

9. Nurses who smoke marijuana

   VenaCava replied to e4c5's topic in General Nursing

   First off, saying it's okay to smoke weed is not "stooping" to another level. Stop acting like you're better than everyone, because you're not. Secondly, I used to smoke weed off and on. I can say first hand that it is not addictive, as I do not smok...

10. Nurses who smoke marijuana

    VenaCava replied to e4c5's topic in General Nursing

    Uh, just because someone drinks sometimes in their off time, doesn't mean they're an alcoholic. Same if someone smokes MJ in their off time, it doesn't make them a drug abuser. As someone in the healthcare industry you should be able to distinguish t...

    VenaCava replied to e4c5's topic in General Nursing

    You keep pulling the "illegal" card but I can safely say that most people constantly break the law, including you. How often do people jaywalk, speed (even if it's 1 km over the speed limit), drink underage, commit traffic violations, download movies...
