    Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    I'm actually pretty conservative when it comes to government fiscal policy. I'd like to see a weed-wacker taken to tons of government programs and spending. This is where I line up with my...

    Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Coolpeach, My Canadian relatives have quicker access to medical care than I do in the United States, with private insurance. Another thought about another type of system - if you know much about...

    Prayer at work??

    I had something related to prayer happen last semester in clinical. (I'm a nursing student). It was different because it wasn't with a patient, and I was asked (sort of). I was basically corralled...

    U of A students, did you get to pick specialty ?

    I'd sign a contract after graduating, to get into the specialty I want. I'd avoid the contracts to get into a nursing program, though. You've given up your bargaining chip in that instance and have...

    Psy 101 @ Rio Salado

    I have not taken psy 101 through Rio, but I think it's safe to say that the liberal arts courses through Rio are pretty easy. It's their science classes (the traditional sciences) that will really...

    U of A students, did you get to pick specialty ?

    I know a previous graduate of this program. She was frustrated that she got placed on med/surg nights when she saw a new grad ADN-RN student who wasn't under any contract go to a desirable specialty...

    Is Gas a Tax Write-Off?

    I am almost 100% positive that gas expenses for commuting back and forth to work are NOT deductible. However, if you had travel expenses like a home health nurse would from driving WHILE...

    The 10 Commandments for Healthcare Professionals

    Off topic, but thank you for posting this. After watching the clip, I went out and rented Idiocracy

    Can I make it in nursing school?

    It does not sound doable right now. However, it is possible that physicians will find what is wrong with you, or at least better treatment to control your symptoms. At that point you could revisit...

    "Women Are Catty"

    I wouldn't make a generalized statement about women being catty because I think that would be unfair and inaccurate, but I will say one thing I do like about men, in general. I think men tend to be...

    Ugh, my insomnia is killing me

    Melatonin, benadryl, chamomile tea, etc all do NOTHING for me. Yoga helps, though! A nice relaxing yoga routine before bed works so well. I get so

    I agree with everyone else. You don't need really recent math and English classes for nursing school. What is critical is the Anatomy and

    I was slapped by a doctor!

    This is very interesting, about the salary increase. I'd expect to get canned as soon as the statute of limitations is up. I'd feel very strange about this salary thing. It's one thing to receive...

    Thank you for your sympathy NOT

    Can't say I would file a lawsuit. Being a party to litigation is often a soul-sucking, mind-numbing, stress-ravaging energy drain that usually drags on for

    Medicaid Spend-Down Requirements?

    Hi Vicky! I'd recommend googling your state's medicaid agency and seeing if they post the guidelines online. I bet they do. Since medicaid is administered by each state with Federal funds, each...

    Thank you for your sympathy NOT

    I am so sorry for your loss. I'd recommend filing for unemployment, saying you were wrongly terminated. If you can prove they did not adhere to their own policies and then fired you - the...

    General Chemistry vs. BioChemistry

    Ha! You are giving me flashbacks to organic chem. Actually, I'm really glad I took that class now. It does change how you look at things. For example, I can read ingredient lists and say, oh...
