1. Students who get As are bad bedside nurses

   UnaNayeli replied to konstantine's topic in General Students

   Fr what it's worth: Every bit of knowledge you gain makes you better able to advocate for your patient. Do what you're doing and believe what you tell yourself over the noise you will hear from others in this life. Time will tell: they cannot. Looks ...

2. People really need to stop coming into nursing

   UnaNayeli replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

   LOL, trinitymaster!

3. People really need to stop coming into nursing

   UnaNayeli replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

   Libby1987, BSN, RN: I am an RN, BSN too (I place BSN 2nd because I find the "RN" the important part in any nurse). I am a "baby nurse." I made it 4 days on the floor into orientation before my doctors put me off work, likely for life. I am also a 48 ...

4. Esme Needs Your Prayers and Well Wishes

   UnaNayeli replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

   Get well, Esme. We'll hold down the fort. Just tell us: Where did you hide the N95s and BB guns?

5. Toward a Level 4 Protocol for Ebola

   UnaNayeli replied to Nathan Frazier's topic in COVID

   Thank you for answering the question about your interest, but this really doesn't tell us your interest and allow us to gauge our responses accordingly. There's no personal gain for you in having this conversation with allnurses members?

6. allnurses Ebola Preparedness Survey Makes the News.

   UnaNayeli replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in COVID

   I am a BSN. You have my support. I was never an LPN, but I have held both subordinate and supervisory roles to those of LPNs. I wouldn't, personally, tolerate listening to anyone degrade an LPN based only upon that LPNs title. I think: If you are pas...

7. Media a bit too invasive of nurse's personal info following her catching Ebola?

   UnaNayeli replied to Blue Roses's topic in COVID

   I thought I saw them doing so only in her defense and in order to clarify her position? I'd have to search to find that news clip, though, if you want proof.

8. Media a bit too invasive of nurse's personal info following her catching Ebola?

   UnaNayeli replied to Blue Roses's topic in COVID

   I personally gave Facebook up awhile ago and agree with you. However, I did use it in its early days. I got caught up in the hype. If everything on the 'net truly IS always on the 'net, people could find such details about me too. They're inane detai...

9. Media a bit too invasive of nurse's personal info following her catching Ebola?

   UnaNayeli replied to Blue Roses's topic in COVID

   "What bothers me about the release of her information is that now, if she survives (which I hope), everyone or anyone who has been paying attention, will know her as the "Ebola Nurse." I said this exact thing to someone yesterday. At her age, I could...

10. Media a bit too invasive of nurse's personal info following her catching Ebola?

    UnaNayeli replied to Blue Roses's topic in COVID

    Exactly! If true, this means our personal lives are accessible solely through our profession, far too easily. Yes, the world we live in is changing. This, however, is not about privacy alone. This blurs professional boundaries and I believe it is to...

11. Media a bit too invasive of nurse's personal info following her catching Ebola?

    UnaNayeli replied to Blue Roses's topic in COVID

    I hear you, elkpark. I am angry for Mr. Duncan as well. The difference -- for me -- is that I can identify with this young nurse and so it is more personal. By standing up for those I identify with closely, I have found I can, and do, make a little b...

12. Worried about the rejection from program

    UnaNayeli replied to iDrumKing's topic in General Students

    I liked your first paragraph, the one about competing only with yourself. Is your family in medicine? If so, I can't imagine they don't already know it's a hard path with serious responsibilities. If they aren't in medicine, they will never experienc...

13. Media a bit too invasive of nurse's personal info following her catching Ebola?

    UnaNayeli replied to Blue Roses's topic in COVID

    AND the article tells you the brick color and general geographical location of her home! Don't get sick, folks! What a mess for this young nurse to have to deal with early in her career! I hope some of the older nurses in her life will step up and h...

14. Student Loans

    UnaNayeli replied to babyreed07's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi, I did my AAS (Associate/2-year degree) while working full time, with 3 kids and going through a divorce. We were told not to work, but I was forced to tell them if I didn't work, I couldn't continue in school. With a 4.0, they let me slide. In f...

15. Helpppp! What question should I ask at the end of my interview??

    UnaNayeli replied to GraceRN1913's topic in Job Hunt

    I've always found it to my advantage not to try "outsmarting" interviewers. If they've read your resume, they know your background/ experience. i simply ask, "Can you tell me what to expect next in the hiring process? Can I call (e-mail?) you next Fr...
