    Pa?

    Multicollinearity replied to mistiffy's topic in General Nursing

    I wonder why you would consider becoming an NP when you don't value NPs? Do you really think it takes 4 years of undergrad, years of RN experience, plus 2-3 years of NP grad school to learn how to...

    Help Me Please !!!!

    Multicollinearity replied to dinkysam's topic in General Nursing

    How about health psychology and nursing. Health psychology is an actual sub-specialty within psychology. You could cross reference health psychology with nursing journals. Then you could discuss how...

    "Men should be EMT's or Doctors!"

    Multicollinearity replied to Antikigirl's topic in General Nursing

    That's a bit harsh. Why not show respect regardless of whether you receive it or not? We don't need to lower ourselves to their level. As far as it "doesn't matter what changes she is going...

    Non compliant and frequent flyer patients

    Multicollinearity replied to dona4jc's topic in General Nursing

    Don't forget that *some* really are allergic to all NSAIDS which includes Toradol. It's called Samter's Triad.

    Are bugs that bad in Tucson, Arizona?

    Multicollinearity replied to StatRNNJ97's topic in Arizona Nursing

    It really depends on your specific area. Like I said, I have friends who live in central Tucson who have never seen a scorpion or tarantula. I'm in an outlying area, next to a wash, and approaching...

    Are bugs that bad in Tucson, Arizona?

    Multicollinearity replied to StatRNNJ97's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm thinking you read my 'vermin' thread. I have only seen one flying roach in Tucson in over 20 years. I think what determines your bug level is the area where you live. New construction and those in...

    How do you stop bad habits?

    Multicollinearity replied to loriannlpn's topic in General Nursing

    I've never smoked. Call me crazy, but I've never understood why there are no inpatient programs for patients to go cold turkey. Isn't nicotine as physiologically addictive as some illegal drugs? Going...

    PIMA Medical Institute

    Multicollinearity replied to PaSsIoN_4_NuRsInG's topic in Arizona Nursing

    FYI there's more than one 'Pima' nursing school in AZ. There's also Pima Community College in Tucson which is a large, well respected program with hundreds of nursing students. Back to your regularly...

    "Men should be EMT's or Doctors!"

    Multicollinearity replied to Antikigirl's topic in General Nursing

    Her personal life experience regarding gender equality in careers (newspaper editor) may not carry over into vulnerable personal care such as a nurse provides. Perhaps personal care from a man was...

    some general questions about admissions

    Multicollinearity replied to dementievafan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    1) You need to demonstrate to potential nursing schools that you have been exposed to the actual healthcare environment and thrive in it. You need to be exposed to sick people in agony, with all their...

    What to Buy

    Multicollinearity replied to shaazzaamm34's topic in General Nursing

    It's not TMI. Actually I find it comforting to know that someone else yearns for a Dyson like I do. And you are young to care about household appliances! Life is funny. Years ago I made fun of my...

    What to Buy

    Multicollinearity replied to shaazzaamm34's topic in General Nursing

    Excellent advice from llg. I personally choose to take on debt only for a home or education. Nothing else. When I graduate I plan on indulging in two things. A Dyson vacuum cleaner, and a Cooper Mini...

    I previously spoke with this aunt who is enrolling in the surgical tech program. She's going for a surgical tech program. She just wasn't there to explain it to her

    Multicollinearity replied to Multicollinearity's topic in General Nursing

    Actually the school isn't misrepresenting the program. My ignorant aunts are. And they don't even know it. Because of course any woman who works at a hospital helping the (((doctors))) with the...

    Accelerated BSN programs.

    Multicollinearity replied to newstudent2007's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Isn't NAU's regular program just for TMC employees in Tucson? I think NAU's mission is to provide distance education in the state where it's not available from ASU and U of A. Not counting special...

    A class? As in single class after high school? I can see that I need to develop a zen-like response to this ignorance and lack of respect. Otherwise I may blow my

    Wear scrubs in a hospital? Then you're a nurse

    Multicollinearity replied to Multicollinearity's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah - NE can and will think what she wants. I guess I was surprised that my other aunts seemed irritated and continued to insist that she'll be a nurse. I thought maybe there would be a better way of...

    "Treatment Consent Form" for nursing school?

    Multicollinearity replied to LaceyRN's topic in General Nursing

    Sometimes legal documents sound strange because the 'legaleeze' is confusing. Perhaps the legal way of saying you are unconscious and unable to give consent is to say "unable to contact or reach."...

    Two-folded question about salary and resumes

    Multicollinearity replied to Epona's topic in General Nursing

    The vast majority of nurses are not on multi-year contracts. Most are hourly or salaried. I plan on listing my 'former life' on my resume. While owning my own business as a health insurance broker...

    "Treatment Consent Form" for nursing school?

    Multicollinearity replied to LaceyRN's topic in General Nursing

    I think this is just a standard consent for treatment form. It's the same thing as like when you go on a tour and the tour company wants you to sign a medical consent form. It's just to be used for...

    This is really none of our business. I have to admit that I don't understand eating disorders very well. I don't think I need to understand them to know that Meerkat has a right to decline to be...
