Thanks everyone! I didn't expect different treatment , I was just looking for advice on any experiences on how a pregnant nurse handled their patient load and work shifts and how difficult it was for...

Hello everyone. I am a nursing student and I graduate in Dec and I already have a nursing job on the unit I currently work on. I am really excited to have this opportunity but there is just one...

I am extremely happy to report that I have been offered a job as a nurse graduate on the unit that I love. Its so exciting because I don't even graduate nursing school until December and already I...

I didn't tell my friend anything, she called me with concerns about this issue. Just about everyone in this city notices the exact thing about this facility. I am not racist just because I prefer to...

Obviously there is just gonna be a difference of opinion here. YES, I very much love working at my current job that encourages diversity among staff and some people do not care because it does not...

Sooo basically just ignore it because I do not work there anymore..gotcha...that makes a whole lot of sense..why didn't I just think of that. If people ignored everything that didn't directly...

It bothers me because it makes me wonder why are they the ONLY hospital in the area that is like this. As far as focusing on the racial makeup of the staff is concerned, I would like to know that the...

worried is probably the wrong word to use.. i should have said uncomfortable because the hospital may not encourage racial diversity and really there is no need for you to be sarcastic.

I have a question for any any of the nurses who may be reading this post. First of all let me begin by telling everyone that I live in a major city with a very racially diverse population. Most of...

OP your attitude sucks and you really need to get over yourself. You and other nurses from your country are not recruited to work in the US because of your bachelors degree or because you are somehow...

My whole point is that I don't think other people should tell anybody why they should or shouldn't pursue a career in nursing. If they are motivated by money, so be it. Just because money motivates...

Agreed! I will be the first person to say that those professions are severly underpaid for what they do. The previous post did not mention those professions they mentioned someone with a degree in...

I get what your saying, but since you are in a profession where someone's life is literally in your hands shouldn't you get paid more regardless of what degree you have?

I had a discussion with a nurse that works on my floor about what makes people get into nursing in the first place. She made a comment that she is tired of people getting into nursing for the money...

I believe that regardless if it is an ADN program or a BSN program, that there are way too many nursing schools and new nurses graduating every few months. Even if every hospital were to only hire...

Thanks everyone for all of your responses.

She asked why was the child on tv , why would the child not be back in school and said that she wants to go visit the child

I do not know if this is the right place to ask about this but I will try anyway. A classmate of my 4 year old daughter and her mother were murdered. It is such a sad situation and just thinking...

The title says it all! Everyone in my nursing program hates med surg and are hoping to have more option besides med surg when school is over. I extern on a med surg floor and most of the new nurses...

Idk if making it mandatory to get a BSN will solve this issue either. I read on an article linked to this site that in the past 10 years the number of nurses who graduated with BSN's has doubled. ...

Yes, but even with an associates's in nursing completing prerequisites could easily take you a year or two. So an associates can take up to four years in some circumstances

I read the posts on this site often and I always seem to see threads related to nurses not being able to obtain jobs. My question is whether or not nurses are the only major HEALTH profession facing...

Thanks again everyone! I really appreciate all of the feedback!

I have asked her on several occasions about the possibility of getting a job their after I graduate and all she ever did was tell me that she doesn't know what budgeting will be like when I graduate...

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I will not use her for a reference. I just do not understand why she has tp be so bitter about me finding another job. I guess you live and you learn!
