3. BBB and the future of nursing

   FullGlass replied to guest974915's topic in General Nursing

   I have never heard the term "toy" hospital used. Small, rural hospital is sufficient. Why would you expect other people to understand what a "toy" hospital is? I envisioned something like Santa's...

   FullGlass replied to melomelo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   The nursing school admissions offices should be able to answer your questions. If you don't get a response, then go down there in person. Just send in the application and transcripts you have....

7. Should I get an attorney after failing NCLEX x 3?

   FullGlass replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

   Why on earth would you need an attorney? You need to pass the NCLEX. That is on you and no one else. Every single practicing nurse in the US has managed to pass the NCLEX. Complete the...

9. International MD wants to become a nurse

   FullGlass replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

   I also want to add that geographically, most of California has a provider shortage. It seems most physicians only want to live on the coast (San Fran, L.A., Orange County, San Diego). Well, that...

    FullGlass replied to ForensicRN12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I am providing you with an employer's view. We hired CDU PMHNPs and greatly regret it. Just because an NP is working does not mean they are a good quality NP. In fact, one of our "bad apples"...

    FullGlass replied to ForensicRN12's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm sorry, but this is a very poor quality program. I am now in charge of recruiting and hiring for a very large psych practice, and I refuse to hire anyone from Charles Drew. Our practice made the...

    Ditto Corey Narry. In general, the students that pay for preceptors through services go to crappy schools. As an MD, is this how you want to spend your time? NP students going to reputable...

15. Nurse Practitioner had live sex for online viewing

    FullGlass replied to FullGlass's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Uh, posting a video on the internet and asking for money, is not, by definition "private." I don't care what any nurse does privately sexually with other consenting adults. Posting a sexual video,...
