  1. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    opalbee replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    Would the school not get in trouble for keeping an instructor who attacks her students when their phone rings in

  2. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    opalbee replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    I don't see the situation as who was in the right or wrong. It doesn't matter if OP is in the wrong for not having her phone silenced. It's not a debate about who is to blame. The point is, is that...

  3. Century College Fall 2018

    opalbee replied to ylime77's topic in School, College Programs

    Ooooo, is this the Century College in Minnesota? If so... Well, I'm still working on my pre-reqs at Normandale, but because of the MANE curriculum, I will be applying to several of the nursing schools...

  4. Psych Class - Too Close to Home

    opalbee replied to Velocirobot's topic in General Students

    You're not alone in this- I'm in a similar position. When I was 15, I got severe anxiety and depression. I mean, it was so bad that I cried multiple times a day, and the thoughts that terrified me...

  5. Nursing Instructor Anger Management

    opalbee replied to sarahky79's topic in General Students

    I don't think this is something to "talk with the professor about"; it should be escalated. She could've seriously injured you or another classmate by throwing your phone. Her behavior is absolutely...

    Oh my gosh, I snorted at "ask the pilot for a red baron

  7. Getting yelled at by a doctor for the first time....

    opalbee replied to NewbieNurse93's topic in General Nursing

    How did I make a diagnosis? By saying that he should act like a mature adult? Looking at the part of my comment you bolded... Are you actually saying it's irrational to assume that a doctor has over...

  8. Getting yelled at by a doctor for the first time....

    opalbee replied to NewbieNurse93's topic in General Nursing

    LOL! I'm not sure where your rude comment came from. You literally gave your opinion on how "the doctor wasn't able to control his emotions" and you come back and mock me for saying that he should be...

  9. Getting yelled at by a doctor for the first time....

    opalbee replied to NewbieNurse93's topic in General Nursing

    THIS.

  10. Getting yelled at by a doctor for the first time....

    opalbee replied to NewbieNurse93's topic in General Nursing

    I mean... I don't think the doctor is a "spring chick". He's probably older, he's had 8+ years of training, plus however long he's actually been working as a doctor... I think by now, there's...

  11. Getting yelled at by a doctor for the first time....

    opalbee replied to NewbieNurse93's topic in General Nursing

    I've always wondered about situations like this. I've yet to work a job in healthcare yet (I have an offer right now, though, and am thinking about taking it) but from what I've read from...

  13. Male Nurse Disgusted by Female Nurses

    opalbee replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Nurse Beth, I have a lot of respect for you writing your response the way you did. You spelled it out, plain and simple. Thank you so

  14. Beyond Bedside? Advanced Practice? Really?

    opalbee replied to EGspirit's topic in General Nursing

    Are you being serious right now lol? Is that seriously what you're going with? So if a nurse is being over-worked and not respected at the bedside, instead of choosing to further their education or...

  15. Fox News calls CNA a nurse

    opalbee replied to Emergent's topic in Nursing News

    It's usually unlikely. I saw the same article pop-up on my iPhone's newsfeed, and wondered the same thing, although I assumed she just got her ADN. Most nurses I know, and even CNAs, are older than...

  16. Are you discerning with your "likes"?

    opalbee replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    I "like" people's posts when I think they're informative or comforting/inspiring to either me, or possibly to the original poster who was in distress. Sometimes multiple people comment in those...

  17. New CNA- wanting to work in a hospital

    opalbee posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Hello, everyone ~ I just got certified as a Nursing Assistant and am excited to start looking for jobs soon. My main interest is working at a hospital, although I've been told that hospitals are...

  18. My insecurities as a student..

    opalbee replied to Auguste25's topic in General Students

    I don't know how much my comment will help- maybe you'll feel a bit better knowing that you're not alone? My situation is slightly different, but similar enough so I feel like I can talk about it. I'm...

  19. Birds of a feather

    opalbee replied to AutumnApple's topic in General Nursing

    I'm just confused as to why the nurse who is bi-polar was brought up. People with mental disorders work every job out there, so why is this relevant to your comment about how "psych nurses eventually...

  20. Nursing from 0

    opalbee replied to LegoLand's topic in General Nursing

    The first thing you should do is check out nursing schools in your area that you would be interested in and look at their pre-requisites as they can vary greatly. The first school I attended for...

  22. Glasses for working

    opalbee replied to opalbee's topic in General Nursing

    Same place I got mine! I think mine were $20. I just can't get over how great the prices are, and I love the new glasses I'm getting so much more than the ones I paid hundreds for! I went ahead and...

  23. Glasses for working

    opalbee replied to opalbee's topic in General Nursing

    I've had my glasses fall off my face while pulling my pants up in the restroom. Unfortunately, they tumbled onto the bathroom floor (I died a little on the inside)... Fortunately, it wasn't in...

  24. Science classes required for the TEAS Exam?

    opalbee replied to opalbee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I spoke with an advisor, and she basically has me set up to complete my science courses by the end of this year, and by that time I should have all of my pre-reqs done. The applications for the fall...

  25. Science classes required for the TEAS Exam?

    opalbee posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, everyone! I've read from quite a few different people that they recommend taking Chemistry and A&P before taking the TEAS exam, but after purchasing a study guide, I wonder if it's necessary?...
