1. Any advice?

   RaeF posted a topic in Career Support

   I currently work intermediate care at a community hospital. I have a potential job offer working M-F at am outpatient endo center. The pay is roughly the same, but the hours at the outpatient facility are perfect. I feel guilty thinking of leaving th...

2. HELP!! I need guidance I saw someone cheating

   RaeF replied to Brie80's topic in General Students

   Well, I see your point. However, if someone has to fudge answers on a midterm, that doesn't bode well for them even passing a final, let alone the NCLEX. And yes, IMO the fact that the OP was concerned about shows ethics. She could have blown it o...

3. melted down in my Clinical Lab today... left crying

   RaeF replied to CeilingCat's topic in General Students

   I'm so sorry you're feeling that way. My school is the exact same way with the lab. They don't do demos or teach anything, you are supposed to figure it out for yourself. That can be hard if you are a visual learner. But I guess they do it to mak...

4. HELP!! I need guidance I saw someone cheating

   RaeF replied to Brie80's topic in General Students

6. Pregnancy during nursing school

   RaeF replied to rookie9's topic in General Students

   I totally get your frustration, mine has been ticking since my daughter was 2. I think it would be do-able to have a baby and attend nursing school, but it is going to make it that much harder. Think of how much more convenient it would be to not h...

7. Get CNA while waiting for Nursing School?

   RaeF replied to 1940apron's topic in General Students

   I found that being a CNA was very helpful for the first two semesters, and after that it kind of balanced out. Still, there are some things at school that I'm able to grasp better than my friend who works in an office. I say if you have the time to...

8. Strict Attendance Guidelines..

   RaeF replied to RescueGrrl211's topic in General Students

   This will sound nasty, and I don't mean it too. If they're not going to be flexible about missing time, go in sick and take the test. I'm guessing you're not allowed to sit close to your classmates to take the test anyway, so just try and be as far...
