Eh. I think that standing in the same spot for 8 hours is not bothering busy nurses. Their hospital agreed to take nursing students, and it is just part of it. Not only that, but we wouldn't have added anything on their load since all we were doing was following and watching. They didn't have to do anything extra but let us follow them and MAYBE said a simple hello. Being busy is no excuse to be a *****. Maybe they wouldn't be so busy if they wouldn't push nursing students away... we could do small tasks to help and we are trying to become nurses so maybe there wouldn't but such a shortage, but nurses like that make me question if that's the environment I want to work in. I definitely don't want to end up like that myself. There is just no excuse at all for the behavior I saw.

I hope that every nurse here is one that is kind, sympathetic and welcoming to new nursing students on clinical rotations in your department. If you are one of those who shuns students, treats them as if they are invisible, are rude and "bothered" by them, then you don't deserve to be a nurse. It's insane to me that this is a common thing. We have a critical shortage of nursing staff, yet you want to push these future nurses away. *** Do you want help or not?******

Any updates? Did you go through the program at Rose State? I'm starting in January and trying to find some info from those who have been in their RN program.

Hello! I am starting the nursing program at Rose State in January so I came here looking for the same info. Now that you have been through the program, what did you think about it?

Hello! I also applied with 105 points and a similar GPA (for Spring 2022)! I should find out in a couple of weeks. Did you end up getting in?
