    Nurse Salary vs. Teacher Salary?

    Multicollinearity replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

    In my neck of the woods teachers start at about $1500 per month, and they have to pay about $300-$400 per month for their health insurance. Do the math. It doesn't work. Imagine if they have...

    Where is there an URGENT need for Nurses

    Multicollinearity replied to pat8585's topic in General Nursing

    I only know about Yuma. Yuma used to have a desperate need for nurses. No more, due to the economy. I read a news article recently where an official from the hospital in Yuma was interviewed and...

    Why is Nursing School so cut throat and competitive???

    Multicollinearity replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in General Students

    The most significant behavioral problem I've seen in my program has been students with insecurity problems. This can manifest as competitiveness that is not beneficial and some other undesirable...

    Reading alot of posts discussing "A" nursing students vs "C" nursing students

    Multicollinearity replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    I think other students' grades are kind of like credit reports and bank accounts. Highly important data that's not other students' business! It seems there are more important things to focus on than...

    RN, ADN, BSN, LPN, LVN, ....... Does it matter??

    Multicollinearity replied to Mrs.BSN71109's topic in General Nursing

    Oh jeez. Here we go again. I wish we had one educational path to RN licensure. I'm not saying what that one degree should be...just that it should be one, so the profession could be

    Chamberlain College of Nursing A good or Bad Education?

    Multicollinearity replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

    I'm curious, where did you hear that the AZ state universities are having problems maintaining their accreditation? It's the state universities that have the best reputations and NCLEX pass

    Self diagnosis via internet

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I would imagine most of us do this. I have an injury and "self-diagnosed" two specific things. The surgeon I just saw diagnosed me with those two exact things, so I must research well. He did...

    Chamberlain College of Nursing A good or Bad Education?

    Multicollinearity replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know anything about Chamberlain other than the exorbitant cost. Have you researched Northern Arizona University's RN-BSN program? It's online (mostly), it's vastly less expensive than the...

    Opinions on scripting

    Multicollinearity replied to country mom's topic in General Nursing

    Wells Fargo is doing this scripting with tellers, and it irritates me every time I go in. The tellers always say the following question, in a relaxed, casual tone, "So how's your day going?" It's...

    Multicollinearity replied to avatar78's topic in General Students

    A few years ago I had a woe, some ailment, (can't even remember what it was now), and a friend insisted on sending me to a retired RN who did therapeutic touch. I went to be polite just because my...

    Health Care benefits.....and frustration

    Multicollinearity replied to ksrose1's topic in General Nursing

    Most people feel badly (in a vague way) for the uninsured or those in health insurance dilemmas, but don't really 'get it' until it hits them

    Are any of your patients getting tested for swine flu?

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Just an update to the above: some state/public health labs now have the tests to independently evaluate for H1N1, eliminating the need to send samples to the CDC in Atlanta. Eventually hospitals may...

    US swine flu victims had chronic health problems

    Multicollinearity replied to Brian's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Since both of the dead in the US had autoimmune diseases, my speculation was that their over-active immune systems killed them when fighting the H1N1 virus. I wonder if it was a cytokine storm in the...

    Do you ever have a subject that you are just not able to grasp no matter what?

    Multicollinearity replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    Chest tubes stump me. The day we went over them in skills lab, I was tired and tuned out. Then, I'd read the section in my textbook about chest tubes and my mind would just go...

    I'm sorry you are suffering. Hope you are feeling better quickly. I've done a bit of reading about the 1918 pandemic over the years. Can't remember which book I read that said those who had the...

    Multicollinearity replied to indigo girl's topic in Disaster Preparation

    OK, then call me insane.... Personally, I would not mind getting this right now so I could develop some immunity. (I'm not speaking of purposely infecting children.) Our nightmare scenario is if this...

    Advantage for Speaking Spanish?

    Multicollinearity replied to Multicollinearity's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thank you all for your input. I didn't realize just how fluent one must be to be called bilingual. I've decided Spanish classes, even four semesters' worth, would not get me to the goal of being...
