  1. Not Sure About Nursing

    Hope21 replied to HadNar323's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you shadowed both jobs to see what the day to day life is like? If not, I would recommend doing that for some

  2. How do you know nursing is the career for you ?

    Hope21 replied to material gworhl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, There are a lot of options with a nursing degree like you mentioned- maybe mental health/psych nursing would be something you would be interested in? However, if you don’t enjoy nursing and...

  4. Starting Nursing School next Fall (Hopefully) and need motivation.

    Hope21 replied to Kiara Shantae Williams's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  6. Starting Nursing School next Fall (Hopefully) and need motivation.

    Hope21 replied to Kiara Shantae Williams's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck! You can do this! I don’t have any specific tips but make sure you know what each nursing school you’re applying to requires and what they’re looking for, and staying on top of any...

  7. Should good health be a requirement for certain positions?

    Hope21 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    Why can’t the staff nurses do some of those things? It seems like admissions, discharges, provider visits, wound rounds, reviewing orders, and addressing some complaints are all things that can be...

  8. Arguing Over a Patient Assignment

    Hope21 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    Why is the solution of only having two people move rooms that you had mentioned in an earlier post not an option? Is one of those two residents refusing to

  9. Should good health be a requirement for certain positions?

    Hope21 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    What is absolutely critical in terms of covering all of those patients? Can your managers help, if they can’t find anyone else to

  10. Arguing Over a Patient Assignment

    Hope21 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    Does your facility have someone who is in charge of doing room assignments? While I’m just a student, it seems odd to me that you and your colleague are playing musical rooms with patients. Is this...

  11. Arguing Over a Patient Assignment

    Hope21 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    I am confused on why 5 room changes need to be made for this one resident- this doesn’t seem like a viable solution, especially if there’s the option for only 2 room changes. Is your facility...

  12. 4 yr program vs community college

    Hope21 replied to sms777's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How would you pay for the 4 year school? If you don’t have a way to pay $16k, then that’s not really an

  13. How to Successfully Advocate for Better Staffing

    Hope21 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    This doesn’t sound like good management if they are refusing your requests for help and not making the staff they do have show up and do their jobs. I would look for a different place. While you...

  14. How to Successfully Advocate for Better Staffing

    Hope21 replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    I’m curious- what were the reasons admin gave for why they can’t hire more help or transfer patients? Are these the same people that are allowing a nurse manager to constantly be absent from her

  15. PLEASE HELP

    Hope21 replied to meganr16's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There may be a class at a community college that would help you in preparing for the TEAS, so I would look into that. I would also look into the conditions of tuition assistance- is it certain...

  16. PLEASE HELP

    Hope21 replied to meganr16's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I would start by looking at nearby programs, and seeing what they require. Does your employer provide tuition assistance? Some places may have different time periods on how long prerequisites...

  17. Okay to wear traditional nurse uniform to work?

    Hope21 replied to Elliebeanlovesmisterbubbles's topic in General Nursing

    I think it would be up to your employer. The only thing is you may not be able to wear white if all of the nurses are required to wear a certain color of uniform. White is also harder to keep clean!...

  18. Vasovagal syncope as sole reason for nursing school dismissal

    Hope21 replied to Mom.6's topic in General Students
