    BIO 201 Debacle for ASU!

    Why don't you just take it at one of the community colleges? I loved taking my A&P at community college. The classes are smaller, and they usually offer more options for class

    Medical terms you'd rather see changed....

    Also, for example, elderly prima gravida. Like 35 is elderly! Maybe it was in the year 1898. That term needs to

    Medical terms you'd rather see changed....

    I don't like the term compliant either. It sounds so heavy-handed and patriarchal to me. I prefer the new lingo, 'adhere' or 'adherent'. Patients may choose to adhere to recommended treatment. Comply...

    What have other nurses done that have freaked you out?

    I was told this in A&P also. "Watch for the needle jump, and don't bother listening when you actually work as a nurse." I just nodded politely and thought to myself, I DON'T THINK

    You have never steared me wrong!

    So true. I called my father's PCP once to report some of my Dad's serious symptoms that Dad wouldn't tell the doc about. His doc called me back and even let a bit of info 'slip' to let me know what to...

    ADN -> RN-BSN with no work experience?

    I am in the typical position of so many - trying to get into a nursing program. I have an idea and I need opinions from you all. I found a school that I could get into next Fall. It is an ADN program....

    Questions regarding Maricopa CC's Nursing program

    Actually, AZ nursing programs have done quite a good job of increasing enrollment. In the last five years, AZ nursing programs have added 1710 additional seats. This is an increase in enrollment of...

    ADN -> RN-BSN with no work experience?

    Here's the thing. Besides my mental defect of having a hard time with divided focus (school and work) there are really compelling financial reasons for me to stay in school without the break between...

    Anyone afraid of not getting in?

    I can't switch from nursing. I was just shocked that the thought popped into my head. I may have to move to attend a nursing program that I really don't like - but I'll do it if I have

    Anyone afraid of not getting in?

    I am turning into a literal psych case. Only on an anonymous board like this - would I admit it. My family is sick of hearing about it. My friends don't understand why it's competitive to get into...

    Has anyone gotten into nursing school with a low gpa?

    Good for you! This makes me think of my cousin. She had to take college algebra 3 times in order to get a C. She just graduated with an MBA from a top tier university. I think of these sort of...

    "Men should be EMT's or Doctors!"

    How would the above apply to Muslim patients who object to the opposite sex providing care? Also, why would you want to take care of a patient who objects to having you as a nurse? I am speaking of...

    Are bugs that bad in Tucson, Arizona?

    Yikes. How did I miss that? Regarding the racoons, aren't they so adorable? Skunks too. I have to remind myself that I'm not in a Disney movie when I see them. You know, don't hug the

    Are bugs that bad in Tucson, Arizona?

    Aren't the babies cute! Amazing how creatures who are horridly ugly as adults are so adorable as babies. One night a few years ago I came home late and a pack of them were at my front door. Right at...

    "Men should be EMT's or Doctors!"

    I guess if someone's behavior is bizarre or disrespectful, I'd rather concentrate on the 'why' of the matter than respond in a knee-jerk ego fashion. I also wouldn't automatically lose respect for the...

    Are bugs that bad in Tucson, Arizona?

    Speaking of unusual creatures...it's not a bug...but we do have wildlife called Javelina. They look like wild pigs. If you live in the suberbs or rural areas you might see them. They travel in packs...
