  2. I would just like to say one thing. As a new grad, the direction this post has traveled makes me very sad. I graduated at the top of my class, and apparently that is just not good enough for some of you. I thought my program was hard. I guess I a...
  3. Support for ADN's required to secure their BSN lacking

    Most every professional company offers some sort of tuition reimbursement! My husband's manufacturing job will pay for him to go back to school, even! What is absurd is accusing anyone of expecting a hand out, in relation to that benefit. When I w...
  4. A little anxiety applying for Nursing school as an older male

    I enrolled in college for my 30th birthday! At 33 I start my first job (TOMORROW!) as an RN. You are not too old. I love male nurses! The old stigma about men not being nurses is ridiculous and outdated. Go for it, man, if this is what you want,...

  9. Fired for med error

    Just be honest. When I got my job, one of the interview questions was to describe an error and how you reacted to it, what you did to fix it, and what did you learn. Everyone makes mistakes, learn from them and show future employers what you learned...
  10. Well aren't you a little joiner?

    Without starting a political debate (you won't get any rebuttals from me, at least) can you give an example or two of the policies that turned you off? IE They are anti-Obamacare and you are pro... whatever.... just say... "they lobby against obamaca...

  12. Best Scrubs for the Money?

    I just bought 2 more pair of the Koi Lindsey pant.... I love them so much. I am 5 foot and fluffy, they have a petite that fit me fantastic. I have no use for any other pant brand. They do wear between my legs... but my thighs rub together, so I ...

  14. What is the lowest HGB you have seen?

    I just got out of nursing school, so my experience is limited, but I had a patient, post hyst whose Hgb was at a 6. My instructor was all panicked, barking out orders to even the floor nurses to get her ready for blood. The doc came by and was all ...
