   We all have our own computers. That's not what I said. If you read some of the comments in the thread- it seems like people are saying we need to put up with things like not having a chair or water where we work at a clinical site. Also, 11 studen...

   Also, we have to keep at this. Women's Right to Vote, for example was won over DECADES and there were several times it was almost derailed because people could not agree on the best way in how to get it done. I am not assuming that nurses ahead of ...

   OK- understood and thank you for your time. This may be my narrow experience- all I know is that it seems like there are some improvements that can be made- and working together is a good start. I just want it to be clear- we get to ask for chairs ...

   Gosh Fellow Nurses- I couldn't disagree with some of you more-are these negative answers how you would speak to a patient? I might take you more seriously is your whole industry wasn't in decline-I am not blaming nurses for this, but what you ...

   And Sleep RN -thanks for all you do. Again, my problem isn't necessarily with the people on the ground- although it irritates me when our teacher is always late. I believe leaders need to lead by example. However, I am not getting a "COVID Di...

   Yes- I'm starting to see a pattern here. I am sending you out good energy to survive- and perhaps thrive where you are at- and to let you know I plan to start organizing and pushing back on these "for profit hyenas"- I do have some experience in th...

   No worries- I just took it the wrong way-easy to do in writing-thanks for your thoughts and time. I think COVID has just cast a pall over everything and made things weird. I will soldier through and just come prepared for every situation.

   OK- thanks so much for taking the time to respond-this makes sense. So just take the ups and the downs in stride-not all places we do clinicals at are great and set up well- I can do that. One additional question- are some actual jobs in facil...

   OK- here's the thing tho- I am asking are these standards OK in the nursing school world for a 36K pricetag? Lack of chairs, no supplies, late teachers? Is this what I should expect at all places? Some places? I get nursing is hard work-I am a har...

    Wow-I am stunned at your response. I am not some "unemployed folk" I lost my job because of the pandemic. I enrolled in nursing school because I wanted to help people and fill a need in the shortage of nurses in our state. I am not sure how I could...

    Thanks for the answer:) I think I am stuck and In reading the student comments about the private nursing schools in CA-they all sound the same amount of awful-all the public colleges are backed up and not offering classes or pre-reqs due to COVID- o...

    Have been attending an LVN Program in since August 2021-I keep thinking things are better but they do not improve- I came from the business world and had the opportunity to work from some nice places. This place is really yucky. The administration ...
