  1. Gay labeling, is it just plain mean? Or sexual harrassment?

    I hope that the folks who are expressing some negativity about "perceived gayness and actions" will remember that for many years it took a man who was confident in his maleness to question traditional gender roles in nursing. He made the move into ...
  2. A&P 1 Spring 08

    I say don't give up. There may be a dietary reason for the skin problem. Don't limit your options. Ride it out for awhile and try to investigate further. I am a chiropractor going after my RN. There have been instances where milk or other food p...
  3. Do men have priority when considered for Nursing School?

    Perhaps the tendency shown here...of some to "eat their young" for a young person asking a, perhaps badly worded, question is one of the reasons for dissatisfaction in the nursing profession felt by some. Lighten up folks! I bet all he can think of ...
  4. Live overseas - travel nurse to the U.S.

    Hi, I am planning the same thing. Although I am almost 50 now, hope to be starting RN program soon. After some experience I want to travel nurse and save a bit of money in hopes of eventually buying in Mexico. Plan is to travel nurse 6-9 months of th...
  5. Gay labeling, is it just plain mean? Or sexual harrassment?

    Imagine this comment made in the Fire or Police Department, " OOOO! Look, one Lesbian giving an incident report to another Lesbian"...I doubt anyone would have a problem finding it both cruel and realizing the need to report it immediately to supervi...
  6. Holistic RN or chiropractic?

    I want to ditto what RNDave said, I am also a Chiroractor and am currently hoping for acceptance in RN program in August 2008. His decription of Chiropractic is valid. In my case, I was never happy with the business aspect of running a practice. B...
  7. Old man thinking of nursing

    I'm 50 in 2 weeks. Was going to go into nursing 15 years ago and then again 4 years ago. The time never seemed right. Finally, went back to school last year and hope to be in RN program starting in August 2008. I did have to retake all the scienc...
  8. LVN now, or RN Directly?

    April..I think your point about the full 12 month 5 days week is valid. The RN is really only 4 semesters and summers off. I am taking phlebotomy training now and will have that as a part-time job. Kids are grown, divorced, and I have only myself...
  9. Just a general question. Have all prereqs and feel confident of being accepted to both LVN or RN programs soon. Have to choose which route to go. Is it worth getting the LVN first as I would be able to get to work sooner? Or should I just tough out ...
  10. LVN now, or RN Directly?

    Just a general question. Have all prereqs and feel confident of being accepted to both LVN or RN programs soon. Is it worth getting the LVN first as I would be able to get to work sooner? Or should I just tough out the extra time and go for the RN?...
  11. Curious female here! :)

    I'm 49 and starting the RN program in Aug '08. Nursing was my first choice but 30 years ago it was not looked upon as a "manly" profession. I had worked as an "Orderly" as they were called then. My family discouraged it and I did not have the stre...
