  4. Scrubs!!

    Out of curiosity, what's the Navy's policy with scrubs? Will I be issued standard scrubs or can I have ones with a pattern or color I like? I'm just curious because it would be nice to own my own...

    Hello, NavyNurse06! When applying for scholarships from the Navy, I only pay them back with time and not money for any student loans? I'm also planning on getting my MSN and my teaching degree for...

  13. New to nursing ... seeking advice! :)

    Oh Corvette Guy... I'm curious as to Army nursing. I did think about it until my dad said I'd be at the fronts being shot at. Is that true? Do you think the way the Army has its nursing set up is...
  14. New to nursing ... seeking advice! :)

    As far as I know, I've gone to the local NROTC near my college, and from what I was told Navy nurses stay on bases. I'm going to be a nurse in the Navy and I was told of the three major bases that are...

    Okay... but is there a Bethesda in Italy? I'm talking about the one in Maryland.
  20. I know that anestestic nurses have a higher liability in the civilian world, but maybe it's different in the military. That's probably a good question to ask if you would like to go into military...
  21. I hear anestesia has a lot of liability and not a good place to be. I thought of that place too but now I'm leaning towards triage or ER in the Navy, or even surgery. Good
  22. Yay! Congratulations!
  23. Smilin gp, it's a wonderful dream to put into reality because not only to you receive, but you get more out of nursing. It's also a very good use of a BSN, considering the Navy needs more nurses....
