    Should I quit nursing school?

    This is exactly what I needed to hear! I love writing in general and have even started on a mini poem book which is coming along quite nicely (though, I don't know what will become of it). But I do...
  2. Hello, So, up until this point I have been decently motivated to continue pursuing nursing as a career. Then I started human anatomy! With everything I’m required to learn and memorize...it’s...
  3. I enjoy this topic. I have been thinking about which nursing specialty would best fit my personality or which specialty I might enjoy. Home health came to mind. What are the requirements for working...
  4. I feel like most of what I read about nursing and peoples opinions or experiences with the profession are more often than not on the negative side. Based on what I have read, I cant say I blame...

    First day of cna and it’s rough

    Breath. Are you working in a long term care facility? Those are not fun. Apply at a hospital, its a totally different pace. They should be giving you more time if you don't feel ready and if you've...

    Any nurses that love nursing and love their job??

    Im a cna, my coworkers and I just spent a good portion of the night trying to restrain a combative patient..it was not fun. There was blood, yelling, punching, kicking, you name it. I still want to be...

    Starting in Tele

    Hello there, I am still essentially a new grad with only one month experience as a CNA in a LTC facility. I just got hired as a CNA on a Tele unit at night (7p-730a). While I am very excited, I am...

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    I just really like this. This is exactly what I and many prospective nurses apparently have been doing. Coming from you, a nurse, it means a lot! Thank

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    My job is 24 hours 365 like hospitals due to the pharmaceuticals we make (IV's among other things), 3 12's make the most sense as far as scheduling goes I guess. I love it! ONE of the reasons I dig...

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    For me its the hours, pay, flexibility, and the possibility of OT. In my current job I work 3(12's) one week and 4(12's) the next, I LOVE LOVE LOVE, my schedule!! I get decent pay for a relatively...

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    I find that this is a common complaint from a lot of nurses. Feeling like they wish they had chosen an easier route. Do you feel that achieving your BSN was worth it

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    Your right. I should have thought about the title. Thank you though for your response. I appreciate

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    I just don't know very many nurses personally and I can't really ask the students their perspective because they aren't nurses. That's why I brought it up here. Perhaps it does belong in another...

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    So I don't know because I'm not a nurse, but isn't it my choice whether or not to respond to such behavior? I imagine it would be difficult to work with someone who REALLY has it in for me, but aren't...

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    Exactly why I brought it up! It was difficult to read the many not so peachy posts and still have faith that I am on the right path. These comments have put me at ease though. While I understand that...

    Does anyone here actually like nursing?

    Im glad I asked this question. I suppose I may have been focusing only on the negative aspects of nursing and becoming discouraged as a result. Its comforting to know that some of you still love or...
  23. I couldn't quite wrap my mind around this either. How does someone not recall dropping their child off at daycare? One literally has to get out of the car, unstrap the child from the car seat, and...
  24. I think smart phones/technology have made us stupid.. we’ve become so reliant on technology for just about everything and I’m not sure if it’s for the

    New Here

    Boy that takes guts! I know perhaps the grass might not be greener in some respects but the reason I’ve been at my current job for so long is due to the demand. CNA’s are in demand all day long,...
