6. What made you go into nursing?

   RKpianoman replied to stargazer88's topic in General Students

   I wanted a low-stress job with no responsibility, glamour, high-pay, and no body fluids! Also, I have a bridge for sale...It's nice...It starts on one piece of land, spans a space, and ends on another piece of land. Anyone interested? But for real, ...

   Breathing through my mouth doesn't help me, because then I taste it!!! There are much, much worse things than vomit. I've only done 2 years of nursing school and an externship, and I've already smelled smells that would make a normal person die; I'm...

11. Just need a little support

    RKpianoman replied to Al.ginger's topic in General Students

    Most schools have a counselor available to talk to with no consequences whatsoever, unless it's something that puts you or others in danger. If I were in your shoes, I would either find a nursing professor I trust and just say "I have some family is...

12. Just need a little support

    RKpianoman replied to Al.ginger's topic in General Students

15. Booted on a clinical failure. I have a chance to reenter, but should I?

    RKpianoman replied to CeCeInMI's topic in General Students

    I think you've answered your own question.... You did great on classwork, you obviously cared about your patients, and you even miss writing dreadful careplans. You should definitely give another shot; but, you might want to be careful how you appro...
