1. Would You Stop to Provide Medical Care?

   stunurse2015 replied to us2uk4u's topic in General Nursing

   I'm in nursing school and while encouraged to stop (especially if no other responders are there) we were advised that once we do we have to stay on scene until someone "higher up" arrives. In which we can transfer care and rid ourselves of the liabil...

3. Pierce Wa Nursing Program

   stunurse2015 replied to tpeacoe1's topic in Washington

   Hagattha it's probably because we all got in this last go around lol and from my experience they draw the lottery on a Thursday so I'd look around the 5th :)

4. Pierce Wa Nursing Program

   stunurse2015 replied to tpeacoe1's topic in Washington

   It's because they subtract points for retaking core classes

5. What if you don't get into a nursing program?

   stunurse2015 replied to knnyz's topic in Pre-Nursing

   It depends on the area you live in. For example I live in an area that has several BSN/ADN/LPN programs and tons of hospitals clinics and LTC facilities so the market is good. But I spent 3 years applying to half of the schools in my area, and the on...

6. Hating L&D

   stunurse2015 replied to NeoPediRN's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I'm currently in nursing school and know I don't want to do L&D or anything with babies. (At least that's what I feel now, but I am keeping an open mind). There are many facets to nursing and to each their own, if you have found yours then go for...

   stunurse2015 replied to LLsrwPedsRN's topic in NCLEX

   My school is fully integrated with ATI and the first cohort to graduate and test for the NCLEX was this summer. So far the word is a 100% pass rate, my cohort will be fully integrated as well, plus the rest of the changes our school has made to up th...

   stunurse2015 replied to Libby1987's topic in General Nursing

   This is my "do over" and I am happy I got my chance to do so! Good luck to you all in your endeavors!

9. Tattoos on Nurses

   stunurse2015 replied to Elephant24's topic in General Nursing

   Be ware some places don't allow long sleeves (like my friend who works L&D ) so be cautious and ask the HR where you work/plan on working.

10. Sure didn't expect this!

    stunurse2015 replied to thegreenmile's topic in Retired

    There are plenty of resources for anyone wishing returning to school. Plus if you have built up networking connections you can ask around your peers and see if there are other openings within your scope of practice. Even possible funding offered by y...

11. Scared to begin work as a CNA

    stunurse2015 replied to AspiringNurse94's topic in Career Support

    First off take a deep breath in and out... I as well was "partnered up" during my clinical in CNA school. I was VERY nervous my first "real day" on the job (nothing like puking out of nervousness on my first break!). Seriously though it is not as b...

    stunurse2015 replied to RichardSEA's topic in School Programs

    Labs/clinical/off campus events I have two sets. Level one I'm sure at the other levels it will be different.

15. I can't believe this just happened!!!

    stunurse2015 replied to stunurse2015's topic in General Students

    It was only myself and the girl I was talking to that he gave his card to. (We were waiting for our turn to check off on a skill). I don't know if he talked to anyone else that day (the other students that were waiting to go after us were in the hall...
