    Why coffee with every meal?

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't say it's "all" in one's head. Caffeine clearly has some stimulant effect. I think the belief that coffee before bed can cause insomnia produces a result beyond the physiological effect of...

    For Fun - Things You Want to Buy Once You're a Nurse

    Multicollinearity replied to Multicollinearity's topic in General Students

    The thread drifts back and forth between "what I'll buy when I'm a nurse, after graduation" to "when I win the lottery," which is fine. We are just blabbing. Speaking for myself, I started this...

    Why coffee with every meal?

    Multicollinearity replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    My : It would seem they didn't think or know coffee before bed should cause insomnia, so it just doesn't cause insomnia. We, on the other hand, have heard ad nauseum that caffeine before bed will...

    Back to being an ugly nursing student

    Multicollinearity replied to lovehospital's topic in General Students

    This reminds me of something. It's not just women that do this type of thing. I knew a male doc who got in the shower to wash his "oily hair" when he was having a heart attack, and he knew it. His...

    Whats your clinical instructor/student ratio? Should I change a program..

    Multicollinearity replied to miniangel729's topic in General Students

    Oh, and sometimes it's a good thing to not see your clinical instructor much... Try not to worry. It'll all come together as you continue on, past first

    Whats your clinical instructor/student ratio? Should I change a program..

    Multicollinearity replied to miniangel729's topic in General Students

    It's been 1:9-10 in my program. I really don't see my clinical instructors much. They are so busy and seem to hone their attention in on the students that (I think) worry them. That's OK though,...

    Is there still a nursing shortage?

    Multicollinearity replied to sassiebaz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Well tell that to the hospitals because in a few months I'll be applying for new grad jobs, and I want a job, dammit... Overall, I think new grads have a higher rate of crashing and burning (i.e....

    Is there still a nursing shortage?

    Multicollinearity replied to sassiebaz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm not sure what you mean by rewards? This is about simple economics. New grads are quite expensive to train. If hospitals can get experienced nurses instead - they can and will hire the...

    To pass or To be the highest?

    Multicollinearity replied to psySins's topic in General Students

    I care about getting As, and so far that's all I've received in nursing school. That said - I've changed my tune now that I'm near the end. I'm taking twenty-one credits. Due to that load, I just...

    I saw a comment from a person on the AZCENTRAL story that really resonated. The person said something like, "If hospital workers are being laid off it's a recession - if nurses are being laid off,...

    A large hospital in Tucson, TMC, just cut loose some of their sponsored new grads and forgave their tuition contract. It does happen. TMC didn't have jobs for the new

    How can I work specifically with GLBT patients?

    Multicollinearity replied to Serendipity, PCT's topic in General Nursing

    I confess I don't understand the desire to work with just one specific population like this. It would seem limiting. But I also know I'm not GLBT, so I can never really understand what it feels...

    How can I work specifically with GLBT patients?

    Multicollinearity replied to Serendipity, PCT's topic in General Nursing

    I suppose you could move and get a job at the one hospital in the United States that does the complete sex reassignment surgeries. I don't know any details - seem to recall it's in the mid-west?...

    Sassie, Stopnik gave you some good advice. I know this is worrisome. In less than a year, I'll be applying for a new grad position. I'm very concerned. The other night I laid in bed wide awake...

    I'm sorry you are having a rough time of it getting that first job. Whatever you do - don't just move to AZ because we've heard so much about the nursing shortage being severe in AZ. Due to the...

    Gender descriptions in my MSN text

    Multicollinearity replied to nursesail's topic in General Nursing

    Interesting, Heron. I hadn't thought of a transgendered person's perspective on this. While I think it's pointless to let this interfere with studies when reading a textbook, I still think it's...
