  1. How would you deal with an abusive patient?

    Skippitb replied to fifi2323's topic in Nursing Career

    Anything nasty that you can think of can and will be said to you at a hospital. I have been called everything from a "f***ing b***h who is abusive and trying to kill [them]," (them being that...

  2. To be or not to be ( A BSN that is)

    Skippitb replied to physiologytutor's topic in Nursing Career

    I am in SW Michigan also. I know the frustrations of the community colleges here. I have my B.S. in pre-med and I couldn't find any C.C.s that would give me preference for my degree, credit hours...

  3. No I wouldn't recommend nursing

    Skippitb replied to manuelvillanueva's topic in Nursing Career

    Now I have a question. Many people seem to act like nurses don't get paid anything. At the hospital I work at ADNs start out at 23 dollars an hour. Do any of you really think that there is any other...

  4. So, she does drugs... (advice please)

    Skippitb replied to christinaquilter's topic in General Nursing

    Ditto. I have no knowledge of the specific laws in your state but it is likely that if this co-worker kills someone while she is high and someone finds out that you had knowledge of her drug use prior...

  5. Which would you choose?

    Skippitb replied to Kwality's topic in Nursing Career

    Have you looked at public universities and community coleges in your area? I went to a large public university in Michigan and it just barely cost me $21,000 for all 4.5 years of my bachelors. You...

  6. Different kind of retaliation

    Skippitb replied to ZZTopRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I just read this story for the first time today and this is the most horrible thing I have ever heard of. I am so sorry that you have to put up with this. :angryfire Is there anyway you can get a...

  7. Pre-nursing student seeks advice on career

    Skippitb replied to Manhattanite's topic in Nursing Career

    I am going to be graduating with my pre-med degree at the end of this semester and will be going on to nursing school rather than medical school. I will try to be helpful by offer my experiences and...

  8. ADN vs. BSN

    Skippitb posted a topic in Nursing Career

    In May I will be graduating with my bachelors in biomedical sciences (my school's pre-med track). I have been working at a hospital for the last 2 years and have decided that I would rather go in to...

  9. ADN vs. BSN

    Skippitb replied to Skippitb's topic in Nursing Career

    I have never heard of that. That does sound very interesting, thank you. Do you know where I could get more information on a direct-entry MSN program? Eddited to add: I found some info but the closet...

  10. ADN vs. BSN

    Skippitb replied to Skippitb's topic in Nursing Career

    My problem with getting a BSN is that it would end up being more expensive and take longer (3 years for the BSN at the university near me no matter what) than just getting my masters in biology or...

  11. Vet tech calling herself RN

    Skippitb replied to Nightcrawler's topic in General Nursing

    I just wanted to clarify something. Calling someone who hasn't gone to AT LEAST 2 years of school and passed their VTNE a vet tech is just as mis-representational as that vet tech calling herself a...
