  1. BBB and the future of nursing

    FullGlass replied to guest974915's topic in General Nursing

    Those are opinions, not fact. 1. The Medicaid work requirements only apply to ABLE-BODIED, single adults w/o any dependents. Disabled people, by definition, are not able-bodied. This also...

    FullGlass replied to guest974915's topic in General Nursing

    I am baffled by your comment "people who are disabled and old will not [be fine]." What is this statement based

  3. BBB and the future of nursing

    FullGlass replied to guest974915's topic in General Nursing

    Also, I am rather baffled that some nurses seem to think they are exempt from ever being laid off. Nurses are not exempt from this. Some hospitals have been struggling financially for many years....

  4. your Nurses: What's going to happen?

    FullGlass replied to artistnurse's topic in Case Management

    As offlabel asked, what hospitals are closing? How many? Where? Why are there closing - many hospitals, especially rural hospitals, have been strugging for years. Your original post is an...

  5. BBB and the future of nursing

    FullGlass replied to guest974915's topic in General Nursing

    The key word is "anticipated." That means it hasn't happened yet and it may not. You have 34 years' experience, which is great. You should not have trouble getting RN jobs and assignments,...

  7. BSN Program Recommendations

    FullGlass replied to davidw76's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You should not have trouble getting into at least one nursing school. Cheapest route - community college ADN, then do bridge to RN. These are actually the hardest programs to get into, with long...

  8. How to manage other students who rely on your notes and study guides?

    FullGlass replied to FutureNICUnurse88's topic in General Students

    An important part of being a nurse, and something many nurses struggle with, is setting boundaries. Most prospective nurses and practicing nurses want to help people. Unfortunately, this can result...

  9. Is shortening nursing schools a good idea?

    FullGlass replied to Mickeyii's topic in Nursing Career

    Thank you for this additional information. I am glad RN diploma programs still

  10. Is shortening nursing schools a good idea?

    FullGlass replied to Mickeyii's topic in Nursing Career

    I'm not sure what the OP means by "shortening nursing school." Does this refer to leaving stuff out of the curriculum or does this refer to Accelerated BSN programs? State BONs require certain...

    Additional information on when wages can and cannot be withheld in WA state: According to Washington State law, it is unlawful for any employer to withhold or divert any portion of an employee's...

  12. Unprofessional surveyor

    FullGlass replied to 1 tired nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I live in California and have been able to find attorneys willing to sue the state. There are some firms that specialize in that. Do some Googling to find

  13. I want to be a medical laboratory scientist, but I'm a foreigner.

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

    I don't know anything about being a laboratory scientist. If you want to immigrate to the U.S., then research which profession is most needed in the U.S. We definitely need more nurses, and...

  14. CA BON hasn't posted license

    FullGlass replied to username0708's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    California is notoriously slow in processing RN and NP licenses. Their website says 10-12 weeks for new licenses (by exam): https://www.RN.ca.gov/times.shtml You might want to also apply...

  15. Unprofessional surveyor

    FullGlass replied to 1 tired nurse's topic in General Nursing

    To OP: You should report the wage withholding to your state labor board, as it is likely against the law. Check the labor laws in your state first, but I doubt this is legal in any

  16. RN to BSN

    FullGlass replied to MJ650's topic in General Students

    I wish the nursing profession would do a better job of promoting high-quality nursing

  17. How to choose a PMHNP program

    FullGlass replied to Ellgee's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    1. Does the school provide clinical placements? Schools that do are usually more expensive, but it is money well spent. It is not easy to find a clinical placement, especially in a sensitive field...

  18. RN to BSN

    FullGlass replied to MJ650's topic in General Students

    I seriously doubt such a program exists. No reputable school would do

  19. ADN, how to get accepted into one

    FullGlass replied to kraft Wek's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You need to raise your GPA. Retake those classes and get a B or

  20. Question about A&P 1 Class

    FullGlass replied to Christina Haney's topic in General Students

    I had to drop Anatomy the first time I took it b/c I was unprepared for all the memorization. You might want to take Anatomy separately from Physiology. Think about how you can best memorize...

  21. Clinical Commute Question

    FullGlass replied to StudentNursing3717's topic in General Students

    Whether that is a "doable" commute is based on your individual tolerance level. When I was in nursing school I had to get up at 5 or 5:30 am sometimes based on when the clinical started and where it...

  22. Unprofessional surveyor

    FullGlass replied to 1 tired nurse's topic in General Nursing

    You may want to get a 2nd opinion. While many attorneys are reluctant to sue the government, there are some that specialize in this. Do some googling to find these for your state. Many lawyers do...

  23. Unprofessional surveyor

    FullGlass replied to 1 tired nurse's topic in General Nursing

    If you can prove the surveyor is stalking you on social media, then report them to their employer! There are ways to track where the person is posting from, even if they are trying to disguise...

  24. Low GPA hitting road blocks

    FullGlass replied to ERNurseHailey's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I will share my experience in the hope it will help others. I started my ABSN program at the age of 53, after a successful business career. Becoming an NP was my midlife crisis. 🙂 My...

  25. Psych NPs that Quit Psych

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

    These practitioners may be in high demand, but very few people can afford to pay cash for such appointments. Building a practice without accepting insurance is not easy. Please do not mislead people...
