    Prepping for nursing school

    I wouldn't recommend studying questions you are unfamiliar with. If anything you're going to be more anxious when you get low scores. Get your school supplies ready for sure. Do get a book like...
  2. Hey, no you're not alone. You're at the right place and your story is totally relatable. This is not indicative of your future performance as a nurse, trust me if that were the case, there will be...

    LPN vs. RN

    Honestly it's a waste of time and money and because you have a bachelor's degree, your financial aid status is different from someone who is going to a CC without a prior degree. I would recommend...

    Help! Do you think this is a HIPAA violation??????

    It was an unwise decision on the part of your Facebook friend. Was she compromising the patient's safety? was she being abusive? If you answered no, then please do not report.There is no reason for...

    Funny Ranting

    Paramedic to RN bridge program.

    If you want to be an RN eventually, skip the paramedic route. It's a waste of time and money if that's not what you want. The LPN program is just as rigorous as the RN program so keeping a full time...

    When to Start U-World

    U world costs about $100 the first time you buy it and it's not a lifetime thing so after a month, you don't have access unless you renew. I would recommend using U world a month before you take the...

    MA or CNA or LPN- Currently MA Student

    I would recommend you start off being a CNA. It provides a chance for you to care for people and a chance to make money. Look for a CNA school that takes a month to complete. Being an RN doesn't mean...

    Finish my degree or quit and do nursing

    Nicely put. Don't waste money on a degree that you don't intend on using. Go to a counselor and find out what classes you need in order to get into the nursing programs in your area. Different...

    Soon to be RN looking for some advice

    Go on vacation, please. You're probably so used to being busy right after nursing school that it is hard to fathom that you can actually wake up and not have to go to class and/or clinical. Please...

    MA or CNA or LPN- Currently MA Student

    What do you actually want? You're not sure if you want to stay in your MA program. You don't think you want to be a CNA or LPN. You don't want to be an RN because "I'm not babysitting and I dont want...

    Sick and tired of wiping butts...HELLP

    Does psychiatry sound good to You? They are always looking to hire men. There is far less butt wiping there- compared to the SNF or nursing home. Just speak politely to the patients and you might find...

    Please help

    I would never recommend LPN-RN unless completely necessary. It's just more time (and money) wasted when you ultimately don't intend to remain an LPN. I agree with Cristaa. Go straight to RN (although...
