    ~~~A&P 1 (winter/spring) Club~~~

    Congrats to all of you who are finishing right now. I'm just starting my A&P I and I'm doing it self-paced. I was starting to question my choice of doing it this way without an instructor....

    Semester is over, how did you do?

    Earlier I posted that I got a 3.7 for this semester. NO! I went to my algebra class last night and we were given our final grades. I earned a 'B' but the instructor gave me an 'A'. I was so shocked!!!...

    Hi everyone. I start A & P I in two weeks. I'm taking it self-paced independent study, 8 week summer session. My memory isn't the greatest. What should I start on now? I'm thinking I should start...

    nursing students for choice

    I don't know that it's our place to tell the OP that her cause is more/less important than others. Also, with Bush's picks on the supreme court and recent laws (North Dakota comes to mind) choice is...

    Financial Aid Question

    You need to make sure you don't attempt more than 150% of the credits required for your program. If you do, financial aid will cut you off regardless of what you have left for your degree. These are...

    testosterone and curly hair?

    This is correct. When menopausal women begin estrogen only therapy they often find that those pesky chin hairs go away. The only thing that changed was the increase of

    about the bird flu......

    A previous poster mentioned boosting your immune system in preperation. Ironically, the stronger your immune system, the more likely you are to have a bad outcome with avian flu. It's similar to the...

    ICU experience - question from a student

    My grandfather died a few days ago in an ICU. His ventilator was removed in accordance with his DNI/DNR. He was 82. My huge family was in the ICU room and their behavior shocked me. I'm not too...

    Religion Needed to be a Good Nurse?

    This is quite harsh. We can find various websites on the Internet that help people express themselves and vent, but real life is quite different for non-believers. Of course it matters where one lives...

    Religion Needed to be a Good Nurse?

    Back to the original question, is religion needed to be a good nurse? This makes me think of something for those of us who are agnostic or atheist. Numerous surveys in the US show that a significant...

    Religion Needed to be a Good Nurse?

    I'm sure fergus will respond, but I too know those who consider themselves Christians, while Evangelical Christians would not consider them to be so. Some folks at my Unitarian church consider...

    New ER nurse here for St. Marys

    I worked at St. Mary's years ago. Whatever you do - I wouldn't rent a house around there. I prefer the NE side, but that is far from St. Mary's. A good choice would be to look NW. You could also...

    ICU experience - question from a student

    Caroladybelle, I was not at the hospital. I was at the funeral home. I agree with what you said. Thank you. I was too emotional to look at the situation objectively. I have to admit I am still...

    ICU experience - question from a student

    Thing is, they weren't talking loudly and laughing as a coping mechanism. They really didn't like him, and resented more time dealing with him. I'll be the first to say he caused alot of pain and...

    An ethical question.

    I would vote for a law mandating reporting of intoxicated auto accident patients. I think. I'm still a little torn, but probably. What I am adamantly against is what I found to be the law in several...

    An ethical question.

    Ugh. As I search my thinking about this, I find that I would support and vote for a law that mandates reporting on this issue. What I am uncomfortable with is medical professionals deciding to on a...

    An ethical question.

    The emotional side of me agrees whole-heartedly with the above statement. But the logical side of me says that I am the patient's nurse. I am the patient's advocate. It is stepping out of my role to...

    An ethical question.

    I believe the elements required to breech patient confidentiality are this: if the patient is an imminent danger to himself or others. This would preclude a past danger. I have to admit I'm quite...

    Question?? Tender hearted

    I don't think that the above experience has any relevance with deciding upon a future nursing career, but you (and everyone) should think long and hard about your emotional/pyschological make-up...

    Question?? Tender hearted

    I don't think this episode has any relevance towards your potential nursing career. One factor in determining a stress response is if you perceive to be in control of your exposure to the stressor....
