  1. Looking for 1+ Year, Desperately Need Advice!

    Are you willing to move to a different state for a year or two? El Paso, TX is hiring like crazy and the fact that you speak Spanish is a huge plus.
  2. So I've been kicking around the idea of buying/starting some assisted living homes (serving under 10 residents) and possibly franchising the concept down the road. Seems like assisted living homes might be the latest health care wave, and one that i...
  3. Dream job if you weren't an RN

    I would love to blog about health/wellness and living a simple off the grid type life and I absolutely love the idea of having an animal sanctuary for hospice patient's animals...maybe it could also offer animal therapy to others(?)...Maybe perhaps s...
  4. Brain storm with me.

    I love the way you think Mudwoman! We should for sure form a mastermind group and see where we can take the concept of holistic nursing/education. I would love to brainstorm and chat with you more--perhaps we can email? Feel free to drop me a line...
  5. Keep this forum alive: Be an entrepreneur

    I've been thinking about opening an assisted living facility (with under 12 beds), but am concerned about the ways Medicare could be changing. Anyone have any thoughts or concerns about opening up a health care related business and getting paid from...
  6. Certification to do Chemical Peels?

    Thanks for the info! ...I absolutely love skin care and would love to possibly do it on the side for myself and friends and family. :)
  7. Hello my name is.......and I am OBESE

    Get the word "diet" out of your vocabulary! If you want better nutritional habits, start slowly. Perhaps make it a goal to eat a nourishing meal once a day, and eat nutritional deprived the other 2 meals. :) I used to love high calorie and sugary ...
  8. Attention Nurses....

    Please don't ever lose this mentality or philosophy--your consideration and thoughtfulness is really touching.
  9. I'm really interested in learning more about chemical peels for the face and body. I would love to go to esthetician school after I finish my RN, as I would love to learn all about skin care--although my interest may stay at more of the hobby level-...
  10. how to lose weight as a busy new nurse

    Set yourself up to win. Meaning, figure out how much time you are willing to commit to being good to yourself. Can you dedicate 5 minutes a day to start? If not, how about 2 minutes? (If you just snorted and thought to yourself, "Give me a break, ...
  11. There is a one word greeting that is used in many Buddhist cultures, that I find so appropriate for anyone at anytime, regardless of their beliefs. That word is "Namaste". Namaste is often used as a greeting when people meet, generally the hand are...
  12. How can you tell if nursing is a good fit for you?

    What was the appeal of nursing that inspired you to get into nursing school to begin with?
  13. Compassion or reality for obese patients?

    There is a huge difference between guilt and tough love. Guilting and shaming don't generally motivate people. But telling someone the hard truth of, "you are going to lose your legs if you stay on this path" isn't guilt--it's telling them the trut...
  14. Most Annoying Nursing Stereotype

    I have been kicking around the idea of (down the road) going for my MSN as a nurse practitioner. Whenever I tell people that NP can have their own clinic, write scripts, etc., there is this mentality that a NP wasn't smart enough to go to med school...
  15. Where Do You Study???

    I just bought the Bose Quiet Comfort 15 noise canceling headphones so I can actually think when I try and study at the library! (When did people start talking so much in libraries--geeze!) They don't cancel all the noise, but there is a HUGE reduct...
