  1. Marymount Fall 2010

    Congrats Lee. I don't want to spoil your happiness, but Marymount is a very disorganized university. This is my second semester at MU, and so far I am very disappointed. I wonder if I should have chosen Catholic University instead. Good luck to you ...
  2. What do you guys do to wake up in the morning?

    I get up at 5:45 daily. Make sure that your coffee machine is programed so you have fresh coffee waiting when you wake up. Also, most importantly, jump out of bed and go to the bathroom as soon as you hear that alarm. Otherwise, you will just stay in...
  3. need info about marymount's bsn program

    Congratulations on acceptance to Trinity University, As for Marymount, by being "disorganized", I meant the following: 1. Last semester, our microbiology professor had an emergency and had to go to a hospital. She did not return until the last week o...
  4. What Is Your Most Gross, Yucky, Disgusting Nursing Horror Story?

    Ughhh. One time, the nurse and I were changing a dressing on an unconscious patient. Apparently, the patient had upset stomach. We had her lying on the side, when all of the sudden, we heard "praaaaaa". Diarrhea sprayed all over the nurse's scrubs. I...
  5. The "Flirt"

    I flirt with them - not because I'm interested, but because I'm gay. They love it!
  6. Tips for a newly employed CNA

    Just take your time and observe. Learn from other CNA's. Ask if need of help, do not be shy. Do not ever leave demented pt's unattended. That's how I almost got my write-up the first month. ALWAYS check the name tag.

  8. need info about marymount's bsn program

    So did you hear anything yet? I am studying nursing at Marymount too. Honestly, I am not impressed so far. It is supposed to be one of the best nursing schools in the area, but god, are they are just disorganized or what?! For such a small school, t...
  9. Marymount University (northern va)

    It's my second semester at Marymount. What can I say... Very small university. There are some great professors, but there are also a whole lot of bad ones. The problem is that at such a small university - there are no options; so you are basically st...
  10. GPA Requirements for Washington DC area schools?

    Thanks for the advice CCN2010. I agree that CUA is very expansive compared to other great schools in the area. In fact, I've been accepted to both CUA and Marymount. Decided for Marymount. It is cheaper than CUA, and it has the 2nd NCLEX passing rate...
  11. GPA Requirements for Washington DC area schools?

    Thanks so much for your long answer. As you predicted - I've been accepted :) I also got accepted by CUA, and waiting for Marymount's decision. Maybe I see you on campus. All best!
  12. Gay male nurses?

    I am gay and I have no problems at work whatsoever. I highly suspect that anyone will care whether you're gay or not, as long as you act like a professional and do your job right... Best of luck!
  13. Marymount Fall 2010

    I haven't heard anything yet either. Submitted all the documents, passed the TEAS. Now waiting. I DID get accepted to Catholic University yesterday though :)))
  14. I just received the letter of acceptance from the CUA and am really excited to start. Has anyone attended this university? What was your experience? How difficult is the program? How good are the professors? Share your thoughts, experiences, and advi...
  15. Odd things you've seen in nursing

    Last week, I was repositioning an HIV patient, when he grasped my hand and scratched me. I was terrified since he broke my skin, but the doctor later told me not to worry, as he was not bleeding and didn't have any blood underneath his nails. But ye...
