  1. Military Nursing?

    Hi everyone, I have a few questions about military nursing. Im a student working on prerequisites and I obviously haven't gotten into nursing school yet. To those in the military, should I go through school on my own first and get a bachelor's degre...
  2. 90%+ HESI A2 2019

    I am taking the HESI A2 in a few months. For those whom have already taken it this year, PLEASE tell me what you did to get a 90%+ score!! I need a 90 to be competitive which is nerve racking. Even the smallest of advice will help, seriously. thanks ...
  3. BSN transferring to LPN program?

    Okay let me first say I reread her post and I skimmed over where she said "hopefully you have a relationship with the father..." I did NOT see that at first which is why I scratched my head when people were kinda being rude for her basically saying t...
  4. BSN transferring to LPN program?

    I don't think she meant any disrespect...maybe that's what gets her through hard times and she's just trying to spread some positivity the best way she knows how. You don't have to make fun of her for it. It would be totally different if she was judg...
  5. S & M Nurses

    Def not what I thought of when I saw S & M ? but an interesting theory nonetheless
  6. Excuse my ignorance....

    Please excuse my ignorance on the matter but I'm curious...can CRNA's work with more than one CRNA during surgery? Is that normal? Can you work at places where an Anesthesiologist has to watch over you while in surgery? Is there such a thing? I ask a...
  7. Trigger Warning!

    Thanks OldDude ? I'm just a sucker for everyone being able to be heard in such situations like college lol
  8. Trigger Warning!

    It really is, when I first heard about them I was like.....this is real? and then I saw one at school and someone was so triggered they were screaming. Its a little...scary idek what to say when I see stuff like that. That's a lot too if they're very...
  9. Trigger Warning!

    Thank you! There should absolutely be room for healthy debate and tolerance at college campuses. This is a time in our lives where we are exploring and sharing views, and cutting out certain views and opinions I feel causes division and less room to ...
  10. Case Study: Why Is This Patient Smelling Music? Pt. 1

    How interesting!! What a good read!
  11. Trigger Warning!

    And also, there are very few conservatives doing what liberals are doing on campuses. Conservatives are not destroying their campuses and shouting at people who disagree with them. There are always acceptations to every rule, if anything, as a centri...
  12. Trigger Warning!

    I totally agree with you, I think I really harbored to one side because that's where the word "triggered" became so popular at colleges amongst this group of people. And there will always be ignorant, bible thumping people who have no tolerance for o...
  13. Trigger Warning!

    I feel the need to comment because as someone who is 20, I can tell you this is a very real thing. So real that people at college campuses will scream and shout at you for just having a different opinion or view. I'm an independent/centrist. I hold b...
  14. I'm wrapping up my last year at my local community college as I am almost done with my prerequisites. The next time is to apply for programs! I am so excited and nervous to take this next step ? I love reading everyone's posts up here, a lot of you g...
  15. Why do you love your specialty so much?

    True, I think it's such a blessing to be at a place where co-workers, managers, and the very higher ups get along. Especially in something as stressful as being a nurse or just being in the hospital in general. And is med-surg something most new grad...
  16. Why do you love your specialty so much?

    Thank you I appreciate that! I heard that ICU nursing is hard...and I mean I suppose that makes sense. School nursing must be so nice ? I love children. It would be nice getting to know the kids at school and having a lot of the same patients/childre...
  17. Advice please I’m torn.

    Wow, how crazy. PLEASE keep us posted....
  18. The Wage Gap Myth

    I think the bias that you speak of is just the result of society tearing down the gender stereotypes of who works in what field. We can agree to disagree though, I see what you're saying but like I said I don't view it as a bias I view it as society ...
  19. The Wage Gap Myth

    It's not the only instance, I never said that. It's still unique in our own society though.
  20. The Wage Gap Myth

    I see what you're trying to get at but look at is this way. Men are and have been the minority in nursing correct? Along with managerial positions in female dominated fields. We could compare male dominated fields with female higher-up that are sligh...
  21. The Wage Gap Myth

    Respectfully, I have to disagree with you. Not your own personal experience in which if that is the case that's wrong and I'm sorry. I'm not going to act like that doesn't happen but today that is no where near the norm and atypical and also illegal....
  22. Two weeks in-not sure I can do this!

    this is going to be so worth it when youre done. stick it out girl!
  23. The Wage Gap Myth

    The "wage gap" people speak of is not a wage cap at all. It's based off of the annual earnings of men and women. Men do annually make more money than women because they dominant areas such as STEM degrees and higher earning degrees where women domina...
  24. Ageism in Nursing

    That's so unfortunate older nurses face discrimination just for being older. I feel like they'd be valued the most because they typically have the most experience, no? I appreciate you older nurses!
  25. Are We Too PC?

    yes. wayyyy to PC lol.
