  1. I was originally going to go for my bachelors later but after transfering schools and half of my classes not transferring if I just go to school one more semester longer than I had intended I will have my bachelors. The classes that won't transfer f...
  2. Nursing Shortage

    A friend showed this to me. This is from the Bureau of Health Professions. I imagine most of you have seen this already, and if I am repeating what someone else has posted I'm sorry. It shows the projected shortage/excess of nurses for each state ...
  3. Quick Question

    I know this is probably a dumb question but I appreciate any answers. I was looking at local internships and I saw a position titled RN-Orthopedic/Surgical. Does this mean OR nursing? Or just bedside nursing patients who have just come out of surg...
  4. A&P Summer 06'

    OK I'm signing up for A&P 1 and 2 this summer. It starts in May and ends in August. Who else is taking A&P this summer? Are you doing anything to prepare for it? My classes are Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 5pm to 10pm. I purchas...
  5. A&P Summer 06'

    I have the anatomy and physiology coloring book by marie b. She is the author of our book we use and I purchased the book from my school bookstore. Now I can say I paid for a 40 dollar coloring book.
  6. Online Course?

    I have the option of taking World religions as an online course which would help me out a lot with my scheadule. I have just never taken an online class and the thought scares me. I'm one of those students who listens in class and I learn that way....
  7. Online Course?

    I also want to say another option is taking philosophy as a hybrid course (half online half on campus). Both will count as a humanities maybe I should just take philosophy.
  8. Cpr

    When did you take your CPR class before nursing school? Did your whole class take the cpr class together or was it each individuals responsibility? How long until it expires. The reason I ask is they are offering a CPR class at the end of summer a...
  9. ABC.com nurse's blog

    I would like to add 2 things. 1. Most of the nurses on the show are real life nurses. 2. The nurses also went on strike during the show, and the hospital obviously didn't run as "smooth" without them. There is also a whole episode dedicated to why...
  10. ABC.com nurse's blog

    I saw a really big thread recently about a nurse that was dating a doctor, and MANY people said it was no big deal. Hospitals are no different than other work places they too have gossip. But everything that you explained is why Nursing isn't a re...
  11. ABC.com nurse's blog

    It is Trauma Life in the ER haha. I hear a lot of people complain that grey's anatomy is not medically acurate too. Once again all I have to say is it's a show! Watch Trauma if you want to know what it is really like. I watch just about every med...
  12. ABC.com nurse's blog

    Olivia was the nurse with the STD. She is the only nurse with somewhat of a story line. And if you watched the show you would know Alex (a doctor) gave her the STD and then she didn't show symptoms and later gave it to George. There was a staff meeti...
  13. For the eyes of the "older" pre-nursing students only!

    The only person I don't recognize in that Greys Anatomy video is the blonde. Is she one of the characters off of MASH. I never watched that. I have a locket that plays the love story theme. Land of the lost was one of my favorite shows when I was lit...

    I'm a huge greys fan and they don't project nurses as porn objects. in fact most nurses on the show don't even have a story line they are just there to take care of the patients. I wish they would give the nurses roles in the show but I don't think...
  15. Healthy nurses make job easier

    I agree that anyone in a healthcare position should strive to be in good shape. Everyone has their temptations and it can be hard. It's not just big people either. I used to work in the air force as a computer operator and for detail I was a fitne...
  16. For the eyes of the "older" pre-nursing students only!

    Here is a funny Greys Anatomy spoof. I am a GA addict. http://youtube.com/watch?v=Yk1bo43Ck0g&search=grey%27s%20anatomy%20land

  19. For the eyes of the "older" pre-nursing students only!

    I was talking to someone about aliens the other day and I jokingly said Nanu nanu earthling and started laughing, that is when I noticed I was the only one laughing haha! No one knew what I was talking about. I think the worst was one day I was sin...
  20. bottle vs breast feeding

    I did both for the first month. I had no problem with breastfeeding and then I pumped. After the first month I went back to school and my mom helped with the bottle feeding. I didn't pump as often as I should have and I dried up. I think you can ...
  21. Another Email

    A woman called a local hospital . . . . "Hello. Could you connect me to the person who gives information about patients. I'd like to find out if a patient is getting better, doing as expected, or getting worse." The voice on the other end said, "Wha...
  22. Title of "BSN" on badge?

    Well said. I agree.
  23. Title of "BSN" on badge?

    I think if you have it, it should be on your badge.
  24. A&P Summer 06'

    Yeah you make sense! Taking Latin would be good too but who has time for that! Let me know how those flash cards are b/c I saw them today and was thining about buying them.
  25. applying to nursing school

    My college has "pre-requisites" and "co-requisites" but you have to complete them all before applying to the program. Sometimes you have to even apply a year in advance. If your school has a website it should explain everything on it. You should a...
