2. Relocating from Florida to Ohio

   contemplations replied to GarlandRN16's topic in Ohio

   Hello! I am still only a student, so I cannot give you information on what nursing is like in Ohio. I can, however, tell you about living there! ** I am most familiar with the Cincinnati, West Chester, and Mason areas, but this will still be mostly ...

3. Making Nursing Education More Universal

   contemplations replied to AutumnApple's topic in General Nursing

   I am still a student, however, looking at the curriculum guides for the programs at my school, it's strange how different they can be. My university provides three undergraduate nursing options--an Associate's Degree, a Bachelor's Degree, and an RN-B...

4. Lifestyle of a Nurse

   contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

   That's funny, yet smart. Haha. :) That sounds awful. Have you ever tried to leave? Or are there no better options? And by "going out" I really just meant eating out for dinner, going to a movie, or going to the mall! Thanks for sharing! It's not ...

5. Lifestyle of a Nurse

   contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

   I think I would treat it in the same respect as you when you say, "like a business." Also, it's nice to hear that you have time for travel, as I enjoy doing so as well. Thank you.

6. Lifestyle of a Nurse

   contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

   The reason I chose to ask about working nurses rather than students was because I figured that, even though nursing school may be very difficult, it's more likely that someone could complete it and end up unable to handle the actual job. I could be w...

   Does this make you regret your decision to become a nurse? Would you do it all over again? Thanks to everyone who has posted thus far.

8. Lifestyle of a Nurse

   contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

   The beginning of your post appeared satirical to me--as though you were writing off the idea of this thread. I am genuinely sorry if you did not have any negative intentions, as I was under the impression that you did. I do not hold grudges and will ...

9. Lifestyle of a Nurse

   contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

   While I do not doubt that at all, I merely claimed it was the general tone of her initial post (from my own perception of her writing style and word choice). I have since apologized for any offense that may have been caused. Thanks again to all of t...

11. Lifestyle of a Nurse

    contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

    I am quite positive I wrote that you may have had a terrible experience. You came across as rude and debilitating in your initial post, however, I am not here to fight or argue, but rather gain insight. So, I apologize if I happened to offend you. T...

12. Lifestyle of a Nurse

    contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

    I specifically mentioned my understanding of the widely differing experiences everyone will have in order to avoid the stating of the obvious, given fact by others; hence, I claimed to be seeking a general idea. I am sorry that you may have had a te...

14. Lifestyle of a Nurse

    contemplations replied to contemplations's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for your insight! I wasn't even aware of work-from-home options for nurses. I'll definitely have to research that more! NightNerd, thanks for sharing! It's very reassuring to read positive experiences after seeing nursing professions ranked "a...

15. Lifestyle of a Nurse

    contemplations posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hello, nurses! Before I officially decide to go for nursing school, I wanted to get a general idea of the lifestyle of a nurse (though I know it differs for everyone). So, I have a list of questions and I would really appreciate it if you could answe...
