    Cussing Co-Workers

    Dealing with Uncaring Professors

    Could you give us more details so we can understand what you mean by uncaring professors? It's great if they do care - but not necessary for your success. Do you mean that they did some sort of active...

    Nursing jobs you can do from home?

    My mother went thru 6 months of classes to become a medical coder. Competition is fierce for these jobs, and they pay apprx. $10-15 per hour. Needless to say, my mom stayed at her job as an admin...

    addicted patients

    This is a pet peeve of mine. Why isn't dependence being discussed here? Many patients are dependent upon medications but are not (((addicted))). When their dose is reduced or stopped they may feel...

    Help with an annoying classmate

    It just sounds like she isn't too bright and she's insecure. Try to forget about it and when it irks you just tell yourself - at least I'm blessed to be smarter than her. Dumb is

    Help with a patient who wants to end her life

    it is not a nurse's role to talk to patients about any god or the nurse's perception of god (lord). it is the christian religion (and sometimes jewish) that refers to god as "lord." why are you...

    Why do I keep hearing stuff about waiting lists?

    What about the increasing trend of the hospitals having so much power? I am referring to the hospitals and their plans with many colleges. The only way to get around waitlists that I have seen is to...

    Personal relationships with professors?

    I have a couple of friends who are in graduate school and they do socialize with their professors of the opposite sex. They commonly meet at Starbucks, etc. Grad school is different than undergrad...

    Which is harder A&PI or A&PII?

    Everyone I've spoken with who has taken both tells me that A&P II is a bit easier. They are quick to say that both are quite demanding

    Has anyone recently taken Comparative Religions?

    Another "OMG i can't believe you did that!" family member story

    I have to confess if I were really sick and a bit disinhibited by narcs, in the hospital and my roommate's phone was ringing off the hook all day I'd be tempted to unplug the phone. I know it's wrong...

    claiming to be what she isn't

    claiming to be what she isn't

    I wish RN's in the hospital setting looked different. You know, it's a sea of scrubs out there. I don't even like some hospital's attempts at distinguishing nursing staff by having them wear a...

    Doctor interaction?

    From what I have personally seen and also been told by others is that male RN's do in fact receive less verbal abuse on average than female RN's. Now what that reveals about respect for female RN's is...

    Please be nice to medical students

    I do agree that medical students can have a tough road to hoe. So many hours and the 'pimping' tradition. That said, I did pick up on a couple of red flags in your post. First, there is nothing wrong...
