    Watsons theory of human caring

    CCNE Accreditation is important???( Urgent )

    What would you change about Nursing to make it better?

    Only you can decide this. I'd recommend reading Nursing Against the Odds by Suzanne Gordon. Then, if you still want to become a nurse after reading the book, go for

    Balancing Nursing School and a Boyfriend

    Nothing good ever comes of clubbing and partying. It's a shallow, non-productive, and damaging lifestyle. Personally, I would talk to him once, and if he did not communicate well and then promptly...

    ACLS classes-Best way to do these classes?

    I recently did my first ACLS. I, too, do not recommend an online class. This kind of thing is best done in a live, traditional class. An online class sounds questionable to me. I studied the AHA...

    why do doctors order more vitamin d tests than anything?

    Vitamin D deficiency is being implicated in so many diseases, and so many people are vit. D deficient. Strange that your lab is getting SO many,

    The world can seem very dark at 3 a.m.

    I'm sorry your family is facing this & hope a good solution is found. As a side note - isn't it interesting that it's almost always the daughter who sacrifices in these

    do other careers get "write-ups" as much as nurses?

    I associate the term "written up" with lower-level jobs, not professional jobs. It's sad that the phrase seems so common in nursing. In a professional arena, a written warning would be a rare...

    My RN-BSN program is with a state university, and it's the least expensive RN-BSN program in my state. It is running $2500-$3000 per semester for in-state tuition. It is a 4 semester program. That...

    Are nurses smarter than resident physicians?

    'Dissing residents is really unattractive and unfortunate. It's about on par with 'dissing student nurses for not knowing everything, IMO. Residents are just operating within their roles and...

    from corrections to where?

    Did you work med-surg at some time before going into corrections, though? I think some new grads are wondering if they will limit their future career choices in the hospital setting if they start out...

    Is it just me?

    I hated study groups and found no benefit. Others find them beneficial. I went to a couple during the first year of nursing school and found it to be a huge waste of time, so I never went to one...

    This is how bad it is in AZ: my neighbor moved back here and tried to get a job after being away for about 5 years. She assumed it would be like how it was before - recruiters wooing her. She has...
