  1. families with clipboards/notebooks

    yellowlablover replied to shock-me-sane's topic in General Nursing

    I have cared for both of my parents in the hospital and I would tell you that in all cases, my sis and I took notes and kept a notebook of everything that was done to them and for them, mostly for our...

  2. Mccd Nursing application Placement number

    yellowlablover replied to Pkkostura's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for the supportive notes......I really appreciate it.

  3. Mccd Nursing application Placement number

    yellowlablover replied to Pkkostura's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks guys but I just can't help but wonder if this is for me.......I am all done with pre-reqs, last one is almost over. I already have a B.S. degree and I am not exactly a youngster and have hoped...

  4. Mccd Nursing application Placement number

    yellowlablover replied to Pkkostura's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for including this website! I have never seen it or know that it was available. What a discouraging situation! I am almost at the point of giving up.......:uhoh21:

  5. casa grande medical center

    yellowlablover replied to topscot's topic in Arizona Nursing

    It's been a few years since I have lived in CG but my folks did and the town has really 'grown' up over the last 2-3 years. It has been a pretty poor town, farming community with very little real...

  6. Has anyone taken BIO156 or CHM130 @ Rio??

    yellowlablover replied to PaSsIoN_4_NuRsInG's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I took both classes through Rio and as the other posters have said, studying is everything. It is really important to go over the essay questions in advance and write answers for them, even if you...

  7. Assisting in abortions

    yellowlablover replied to bethin's topic in General Nursing

    You ask if legally the nurses could choose not to attend to this patient due to the type of procedure that was in process. From the Nurses Code of Ethics, a nurse can choose to not be involved in a...

  8. Rio Salado Community College

    yellowlablover replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yeah - I can tell you thru a bad experience I had, I wish I had been able to take more classes at a 'regular' school but at the time, it just wasn't an option. I use to think Rio was a great...

  9. Best Hospital??

    yellowlablover replied to helpinghands's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Mary: Don't know about Tempe St. Lukes but when I was doing a clinical rotation at Scottsdale Shea for my CNA, we had a pt. sent to us from Mesa Community that was really bad and the ED doc obviously...

  10. Rio Salado Community College

    yellowlablover replied to spudbunny's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Some personal thoughts on Rio, the MCCC system, etc. I did all of my science pre-reqs through Rio, since I was working full time (no longer) and my undergrad is in business. I am now taking one...

  11. Already Have a BA, do I need to get a BSN?

    yellowlablover replied to Newbie Nurse SMP's topic in General Nursing

    This question has to answered by you.....if you are in nursing, not sure why you wouldn't get your MSN in a field that is nursing related. Personally, I am going for my NeoNatal NP, but I know ASU...

  12. Internet Porn at work-need advice

    yellowlablover replied to RN34TX's topic in General Nursing

    Quite frankly, I am surprised you are spending so many personal BTU's worrying about someone who would be involved with this type of activity AT WORK. Why you think you would be responsible for her...

  13. Already Have a BA, do I need to get a BSN?

    yellowlablover replied to Newbie Nurse SMP's topic in General Nursing

    You need to investigate the individual programs requirements. Every university and discipline within a college is going to have somewhat different requirements. Most require the GRE or GMAT test...

  14. Already Have a BA, do I need to get a BSN?

    yellowlablover replied to Newbie Nurse SMP's topic in General Nursing

    Agree with this....at ASU, they require at least two years of RN experience BEFORE getting your MSN, however they also will start you part time in the MSN program, taking your classroom/lecture...

  15. Already Have a BA, do I need to get a BSN?

    yellowlablover replied to Newbie Nurse SMP's topic in General Nursing

    I know that in Arizona, we have programs at ASU that are RN-BSN-MSN degrees. That is the track that I am taking - starting with the RN from a CC. I was at ASU but determined that my ultimate goal was...

  16. Losing money being a nurse

    yellowlablover replied to moonshadeau's topic in General Nursing

    Mom - this was the point I was making exactly. This thread and the discussion isn't really about how hard nurses work, that is a given. But I too was in the field of high tech and experienced...

  17. Losing money being a nurse

    yellowlablover replied to moonshadeau's topic in General Nursing

    Clearly at 150K per year you are not a nurse. There are very few nurses who make that much. I wish we did have more of a pay for performance system in nursing. How many other professionals have to...

  18. How much for your soul? (This is very long.)

    yellowlablover replied to workingforskies's topic in General Nursing

    Tim: I believe you have hit the nail on the head....although I am an outsider, it seems like the 'haves' (read administrative management) have a clear understanding of the lack of organization of...

  19. Always Remember This, No Matter Who You Are!

    yellowlablover replied to Lovely Valentine's topic in General Nursing

    lovely valentine: this is what i am talking about!!! and i believe all that you say here. what nurses do matters, even though at times it probably doesn't seem so. i keep thinking of how i would...

  20. Losing money being a nurse

    yellowlablover replied to moonshadeau's topic in General Nursing

    As I was reading through these eight pages of posts, I almost forgot what the original thread was?!! Needless to say, a bit of 'stream of consciousness' discussion going on here, which Ms. Blue Eyes...

  21. CLRN - Certified Legal RN

    yellowlablover posted a topic in General Nursing

    I noticed on another thread discussing various non bedside employment opportunties for RN, something about becoming a certified legal RN and referencing a site - legalnurse.com. Is anyone familiar...

  22. CLRN - Certified Legal RN

    yellowlablover replied to yellowlablover's topic in General Nursing

    Siri: thanks one more time for your information and clarification. One last question - you had to know it was coming! What is the difference between 'certified' and 'registered' legal nurse...

  23. CLRN - Certified Legal RN

    yellowlablover replied to yellowlablover's topic in General Nursing

    Siri: Thanks for the response and sorry for the 'letter mixup'. How is the CLNC different from what you do/are? I believe you are an FNP:confused: and a medical consultant???

  24. No I wouldn't recommend nursing

    yellowlablover replied to manuelvillanueva's topic in Nursing Career

    Bless you HB - and right on!!! I couldn't agree more and I am sure that most folks that have ever been in a hospital and/or needed nursing help, would recognize the difference between your...

  25. No I wouldn't recommend nursing

    yellowlablover replied to manuelvillanueva's topic in Nursing Career

    Okay, here goes nothing. I know a bunch of you long term RN's are going to kill me for this but from where I come from (high tech industry/electronics) constructive confrontation is not only welcome...
