While I understand your point and yes, being respectful of other cultures is extremely important. I don't understand why someone who holds these beliefs would go into nursing then. I highly doubt that...
I am glad that is what you understand, that we can't let our beliefs interfere with our jobs. I'm by no means telling anyone to give up their beliefs (haters gonna hate), but I'm also saying if you...
So then if, I, a transgender male who has had top surgery came in because I was in a car accident in your small town where you are the only RN and I sustained life-threatening injuries that had...
So I'm in a similar situation, I took anatomy and physiology over 10 years ago, MCC said I technically don't have to retake it, but I didn't do the greatest the first time around, so I'm retaking...
Also @hherrn if your comment was more hypothetical and/or aimed at @dancrn I can tell you, as they went out of their way to send me a private message, that they believe transgender people are...
NO!!!! And if you can’t get over that you should find a new career and also a reading comprehension class and re-examine that bible because i’m fairly certain Jesus said to love your neighbors,...
As a transgender man, this scares the crap out of me. I have heard of people who have gone in for routine healthcare like a sinus infection and being turned away because they are trans. The fact that...
My situation is similar, I was actually in nursing school about 11 years ago, I ended up failing (by 2points) in my third semester and at that point, I just gave up rather than trying to retake that...
I agree with babysplash, even if your work is going to pay for your schooling, you can apply for student loans, which typically will have a *better* interest rate for paying them back, granted you...
@Ventara thanks! I got the email too. I feel like I need a little more time to get ready so I’m going to go to an info session for Fall 2020, but I’m excited to learn more. I feel like even...

Oh, my bad, I didn't realize we should just tell people not to have sex outside of marriage and they will just stop having sex outside of marriage, just like we tell people not to drink and drive and...
I went to an info session for the post-bac about a month or two ago and because of finances and the fact that I already have a masters degree in a different subject had pretty much ruled the post-bac...

NO ONE is saying everyone should have an abortion. The point of this whole thread is that places that are making it illegal to get an abortion, in some cases regardless of if it's rape or incest, that...
Ok, so I get that I'm probably jumping the gun here and trying to get ahead of myself with planing out my entire path, but this is just what I do. I'm not currently a nursing student, but in trying to...
Thank you both, I definitely appreciate the advice! @araew2129 I had seen UofA's program because it looks like if I did consider the MEPN there that there's some kind of acceptance agreement as long...
I can't speak from experience, but it sounds like it could be a good plan. The only thing I would personally be concerned with it the pay. My guess is that you would make more as a health educator vs...

Because the idea of "not having sex outside of marriage" is antiquated and based in religion, so this once again goes into keeping religion out of state. I'm pretty sure your God stated something...
Thanks, I guess what I am trying to decide is if I will be able to find a job as an RN with my ADN while I work on getting a BSN or potentially an MSN since I have a bachelors in a different field; or...
I know this is a little bit of an older thread, but I would love (at least from what I can tell now) to work at PCH, if they accept new grads to NICU is it hard to move onto a different unit? I'm...
Hey there! Sorry not to hijack the OP, but I'm also in AZ, I'm glad to hear that you all were able to get jobs so quickly. If you don't mind me asking are you in the Phoenix valley area? I'm just...
I'm not currently a nurse, but as I left nursing school 10 years ago because I felt I wasn't good enough and I also left studying to become a dance teacher prior to that and felt that often in my...

Sorry, horseshoe dragged me back into this, I never said that your beliefs or anyone who believes in the bible is stupid, maybe fiction was taken as an insult. What I said is that you are trying to...

Adding on to this and probably a big part of why I'm even more passionate about this issue, is that currently the orange thing in the white house is trying to pass legislation that allows health care...
Without doing any research into this, I feel like *part* of the reason there could be a higher failure rate could be related to this belief that a lot of people have that "online school is easier."...

Yes, there are bad people in every group, the people using their beliefs (religious or otherwise) to control others to live by their beliefs...I'm done with this conversation, you have your religious...
