2. A Few questions about career advancement in the Navy Nurse Corp

   RNbrent posted a topic in Career Support

   Good afternoon, I'm about to embark on my career as a nurse in the USN. Over the past several weeks, I've learned the basics of becoming an officer in the USN, and am planning on reeping the benefits of the camaradic field. For those of you that are...

3. Cheap online MSN / FNP programs

   RNbrent posted a topic in NP Students

   After spending a couple full days last month applying to Georgetown's online program, I got accepted. The program is to start in March, and it's all online (except the 650 hours of clinical). I was so excited to get accepted, but am now realistically...

4. Hiring question

   RNbrent replied to new_worker's topic in Geriatric

   You were looking pompous. This is an internet site. Not an interview. I often make mistakes in my writing, but never double check anything because this is a forum. Let people think what they want about my intelligence, until you meet me in person, yo...

6. Torn between Nursing and Medicine

   RNbrent replied to Loux's topic in Career Support

   Anyone that works to live needs to re-adjust their lifestyles. There is a law in economics called the propensity to consume, the more you make the more you spend. If you re-adjust your lifestyle you can live on any amount of money per year. You may n...

7. If you could rewind and do it over again...

   RNbrent replied to NurseBanana's topic in Career Support

   This.. NPs will be the new family doctor's of the future. Family M.D. just has no money any more, and NPs will be happy with making 100,000+ a year. Mock my words, family doctors will be phased out. Only time will tell.

8. What's your nursing kryptonite?

   RNbrent replied to ktliz's topic in General Nursing

   this x 10 billion. That smell is so awful sometimes, and you're trying your best not to let the patient know you notice it since they're a little self conscious themselves. Anything else is fine.

10. 2nd day on my own as a new grad, with a student, cried three times

    RNbrent replied to whitebunny's topic in Geriatric

    If it were me, I would have put this kid's nose in the corner a long time ago. Still, you're still WAY too new to be precepting (even though I know you got stuck with it). Your preceptor should have NEVER let you do that. Shame on her! You can only d...

11. Torn between Nursing and Medicine

    RNbrent replied to Loux's topic in Career Support

    Sorry, I didn't realize this was a christian site. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by 'our true God'. I'm a monk, are you telling me my God isn't true, because that's certainly the impression that was just made. Without getting in an argument, I ...

12. Torn between Nursing and Medicine

    RNbrent replied to Loux's topic in Career Support

    It's obvious how important this kind of information is when it comes to being a good nurse. /sarcasm I think the majority of people will agree that on the job experience prepares people more for the real thing than any academic program could. Sure, y...

13. Torn between Nursing and Medicine

    RNbrent replied to Loux's topic in Career Support

    This is what should have been said from the start. Instead we have people arguing which field is a 'better' field. I didn't mean to offend anybody with my comments. My point I was trying to make is, people feel that M.Ds are a much better place to be...

14. Torn between Nursing and Medicine

    RNbrent replied to Loux's topic in Career Support

    DNS on the go, Sounds like to me the problem isn't the student, but the teacher. Why don't you step up your game? You say these students are unintellectual? Do you even know what intelligence compromises? Do you understand that the ability to write a...

15. Torn between Nursing and Medicine

    RNbrent replied to Loux's topic in Career Support

    Yeah..... I don't like that comment. Not one bit. Doctors will never understand the sense of reward that comes from being a nurse. Doctors act like God, but nurses are God. Intelligence has nothing to do with it. When it comes down to it, it's your ...
