So far the only people in my program that know I'm gay is the one girl I went to high school with. She might have told a few of her friends in the program, but they haven't said anything to me or...

Nice to meet you too! Yay for Ohio! Us Ohioans gotta stick together haha. That's gotta be a long drive back from work if you live an hour away. I only have a 3 minute drive and its still too much for...

Hey! Nice to meet you too. I also work in a nursing home. I work third shift. I really like it, but I'd really like to work in a hospital. I've got two more years of nursing school and then I'll do...

Hey! I'm Kyle, a CNA in Ohio. Nice I meet everyone! :)

Thanks for sharing this video and your story. Truly inspiring. I know my friends are going to love it when I show them.

Thanks for all the feedback! I had no idea there was an allnurses app :D I freaked out a bit when I downloaded it

I got the same reactions from work. The only thing you can really do is keep your mouth shut :/ Thats what I have to do. The only time I talk about school is if I get asked about it. The LPN's and...

Not all CNA's are mean and grumpy. A lot of the ones I work with are amazing. There are the few, however, that are constant complainers and tend to bring everyone else down. It is a very stressful...

Thanks so much! I'm hopefully getting my Ipod this weekend so I'll start downloading them. I probably will PM you for that discount sometime!

I just walked into as many nursing homes as possible and applied. I kept calling and calling them, asking about my application, if they had reviewed it, if there were any openings. I'd call every...

I definitely know how you feel. I transferred nursing schools, and I still get phone calls and texts about all the drama and tests and crap that happens down there. I love going down there to visit,...

I'm a CNA in a nursing home, and I do occasionally get a resident who doesn't want me because I'm a guy. But thats just something that comes with the job and being a guy. Some people just aren't...

So far I've had no trouble with being gay and in a nursing program. This is my second one I'm in because I had to transfer schools. In my first one all the girls loved me (hey, I can't help it!) We...

I'm a CNA in a nursing home, and all the nurses there just seem miserable. It sorta discourages me as a nursing student. I'm just trying to keep my head up and look at the positives!!

Hey! My school requires me to have an ipod touch for clinicals, so I was just wondering if there are any good apps for nursing students out there? Or if you use your phone/ipod during work, what...

When you visit a friend in the hospital and have to resist the urge to empty their catheter. When your friend calls you for medical advice and you use terms such as "q" and "PRN" and they tell you...

I'm probably gonna buy plane tickets to Utah to visit my family, and then another ticket to California to visit my best friend. Then my own apartment, then a car. Then I'll go from there!

I deal with this on a daily basis at work. At first a lot of the new female residents are really uncomfortable with me, but once they realize that I'm not doing anything inappropriate and just trying...

Just yesterday I had this happen to me twice. I'm an STNA in a nursing home, and I gave a lady a shower. She was fine with it, but when the husband found out it was me who gave the shower, he went...

I just started working as a STNA in a nursing home a few weeks ago, and it's interesting being a guy. Some people are completely fine with my, but I'll still walk in to rooms and they are shocked to...

My friends roommate is in the accelerated program, and he's doing really well. But I'm not sure how the program is going to be now because of the transition from MedCentral College of Nursing to...

Is there any information during the TEAS test that is given to us, such as a conversion chart for measurements or a periodic table?
