    No Peds courses in nursing program...vent!

    The cynic in me wonders if some countries that have been losing nurses to the United States may be changing curricula and clinical rotations on purpose. If their nurses can't meet US requirements,...

    A&P nightmare!!!

    I have seen this method used before. I suspect that she is using an old-school method of trying to get rid of whiners and those who won't take responsibility for their own learning. Students these...

    Oldest pregnant patient you have seen?

    I was not referring to the other women. I was referring to your post which appears to directly address that woman with 23 children in Scotland. And no, none of these women "make me sick."...

    Oldest pregnant patient you have seen?

    You're making quite a few assumptions there. A few posts down, there was more info on this woman with 23 kids. Highly religious, living on an isolated island. You said, "These women make me sick....

    Aspiring Nurses: Why not Med School??

    For the most part - actual nurses seem to have more negative feelings about the question. Perhaps because they have actual experience. On the other hand, it's mostly students who think the question is...

    Aspiring Nurses: Why not Med School??

    Aspiring Nurses: Why not Med School??

    I took that comment to be a cute and effective use of humor. Just look at Canoehead's signature line. She uses humor. Funny! I would imagine that it could get tiresome to be questioned repeatedly...

    How much do u like nursing? Scale of 1 to 10

    As a pre-nursing student, on a wait-list for an ADN program, and applying to more...I'd say for me, the IDEA of nursing is a 10. I may have a different number after actually working as a nurse....

    Nurses: Who came from a dysfuntional family?

    Thing is, this cannot support or falsify the study. Those with dysfunctional backgrounds are much likely to respond to this sort of thread than those
