    Anyone here plan on a PhD,DNP, etc...?

    Music in My Heart replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am presently planning to pursue my PhD after I complete my MSN. The CNS/NP/CRNA routes do hold some appeal but my long-term goal is to become a nurse educator at the University of California so my...

    Disputing a grade?

    Music in My Heart replied to JeanettePNP's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you have grounds on which to dispute the grade then do so. If your grounds are simply that you "should" have gotten an A then you're best to keep quiet. Your GPA or expectations have no bearing on...

    How Helpful was the Anatomy coloring book for you?

    Music in My Heart replied to birdy88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As soon as you can. I would add a good atlas to the mix. I'm a big fan of Netter but I'm sure there are other good

    Music in My Heart replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Of course it takes money, lots of it. Yes, cost containment is crucial to any entity. The issue is whether you want to add the profit motive on top of that. Any for-profit entity puts their...

    Nursing Admission Essay

    Music in My Heart replied to ggabri07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've quickly edited your statement to be more concise. I haven't spent much time with it nor have I made any attempt to address content, structure, usage, or grammar. I've simply removed what I...

    Nursing Admission Essay

    Music in My Heart replied to ggabri07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Maybe it would help to know what is the question that you are answering. It's not obvious to me from reading your essay. The essay is wordy. For example, "It all started out when..." can also be "It...

    sign a contract?

    Music in My Heart replied to red426's topic in General Nursing

    It's a straight-up business transaction. If you'll agree to stay for two years then they'll give you $10,000 toward your loans. If you don't want to make the commitment then you'll forego the money....

    Re-entry advise-please

    Music in My Heart replied to juniemoon99's topic in Nursing Career

    You might consider going for a BSN or MSN. That would freshen your resume. You might also see if you can find a clinic that provides healing touch therapy or therapeutic massage. That could help you...

    Medicare For All H.R. 676

    Music in My Heart replied to pickledpepperRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I beg to differ. When it's 1 person or 10 people, it's an individual problem. When it's 45,000,000 people or 15% of our population, it's a public problem. Yep, exactly. That's why we need to get rid...

    Music in My Heart replied to Britt711's topic in Nursing Career

    Well, there are no guarantees. There are parts of the country where new grads are facing stiff competition for entry-level positions. It may also be difficult to find an L&D job right out of...

    Frankly, I'd much prefer to work with fresh tissue than preserved tissue. It's much easier to work with, easier to identify, and not nearly so stinky and

    Anatomy Class

    Music in My Heart replied to belle005's topic in General Nursing

    The human dissections in anatomy did not bother me at all. I felt quite fortunate to have the opportunity with only 4 students per cadaver. Any covering was at our discretion. We also had the "kick...

    Printer that handles loose 3x5 cards?

    Music in My Heart replied to Music in My Heart's topic in General Nursing

    Back in the days of tractor-feed printers, they did have them like that in an accordion-folded stack. I haven't seen 'em around in quite awhile. They do have letter-size sheets with cards on 'em but...

    Printer that handles loose 3x5 cards?

    I've never used a dedicated photo printer. Do you have any personal recommendations? I could use larger cards but I really prefer the 3x5's which are cheaper and more

    Add one chubby middle-aged man to the list. I'm a Weight Watchers guy myself. I don't do the meetings (or pay the fees) but I do use their point system. I don't believe in fad diets or gimmicks; it's...

    Music in My Heart replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

    I'd have been embarrassed, to be sure, but would also be glad that they were proactive. I was at a place where we had a no-show by somebody who was very dependable. She had died suddenly. I never knew...

    While I just can't abide giving the government such power in a free society, such cases do make me at least consider the notion of forced sterilization. God bless your daughter and her husband -- they...

    Music in My Heart replied to student-with-no-life's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I'd try not to spend much emotional energy on something that you can do nothing about and which doesn't directly affect you. The one thing that would irritate me, though, is this: Presuming this...

    Music in My Heart replied to *Bethany*'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're welcome, Bethany. By the way, don't stress. Algebra hasn't changed any since you took it in high school. If you got it then, you'll get it now. Best of luck to
