  1. Relocating to New Orleans from Florida

    naturalcuriosity posted a topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Hello everyone! I am an RN from Jacksonville, FL. I graduated in December of 2007 and have been working since February. I have decided to move to New Orleans in the next couple of months. I have an...

  2. Please, Please, Please, Any Other Very Tall Nurses Out There?????

    naturalcuriosity replied to *Andrea*'s topic in General Nursing

    I am 5'11", so I feel your pain! No advice on scrubs, though!

  3. OB tech and doula training

    naturalcuriosity replied to cel122's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I don't agree. Being a doula means knowing about the process of birth and is all about communication with child-bearing women. I don't see how improving your communication skills and knowledge would...

  4. OB tech and doula training

    naturalcuriosity replied to cel122's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I think that anyone wanting to work in OB should have doula training. I got a job interview in OB and was the top candidate out of 30 others specifically because of my doula training. Good

  5. FCCJ Application......

    naturalcuriosity replied to sbc8201's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I am in 3rd term now. I would say that classes are more intense because it is Pediatrics and OB (8 weeks each) where everything is taught very quickly, but not necessarily more difficult. I personally...

  6. Too old????

    naturalcuriosity replied to Yayamaya's topic in Nursing Career

    Definitely NOT too old to start! I am in nursing school now and there are quite a few people (probably 30% of the people in the program where I am) that are over 40. I am sure many others here can...

  7. Nurses: Who came from a dysfuntional family?

    naturalcuriosity replied to kstec's topic in General Nursing

    Nope. I don't think I fit. I would say my mom with some clinical depression wouldn't be in the same category as alcoholics and abuse. I have heard that about a lot of nurses, though. Especially...

  8. First Night Jitters

    naturalcuriosity replied to gradRN2007's topic in General Nursing

    Good luck! Ask lots of questions while you

  9. FCCJ Application......

    naturalcuriosity replied to sbc8201's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Mine was the same semester you were applying for (Fall Term) and they said the same thing. 6-8 weeks from June 1st. I got my letter on July 7th, so it was really 5 weeks! Keep holding on! I know it is...

  10. FCCJ Application......

    naturalcuriosity replied to sbc8201's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I disagree about the study thing. I bought the ARCO book also and I felt it really helped me. It will also get you prepared for the types of questions that you will be asked in nursing school and help...

    Congratulations on your graduation!! I will be there myself in December. Woohoo! Good luck with being a non-smoker. I am sure it will be hard, but you can do

  13. Don't put that in your nose!!

    naturalcuriosity replied to whiskeygirl's topic in General Nursing

    A friends daughter (5 years old) took a couple beads off of a decorated pillow and stuck them up her nose. She got one of them out. The other was stuck so high it was whistiling when she would...

  14. Myers-Briggs Type

    naturalcuriosity replied to piscesguy's topic in General Nursing

    I am an INFJ. Very intuitive. I think this will be a good thing for a nurse to have lots of. (I am a nursing student,

  15. "Natural" birth

    naturalcuriosity replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in Ob/Gyn

    As a birth doula, I have seen these types of couples as well. The people with the "plan" (The ones who usually have the day care picked out already as well...) are usually the type that basically...

  16. Hey

    naturalcuriosity replied to alilar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeah, I was lucky! I was just praying when I was drawing my number that it would be under 50 and I picked 27. I just thought with my luck I would have been 144. You're right. It was really not...

  18. Hey

    Yes! I just got my labs back today. Took over a week to get the results. I got my books last week. (Except the modules) You're right. It is QUITE a stack!! I have everything done except the picture. I...

  19. F1 visa and pregnancy?

    naturalcuriosity replied to rsmit02's topic in General Students

    Hi there. From what I have read online: Your visa will neither be revoked nor will you have to leave the U.S. Although F-1 status requires an intention not to immigrate to the U.S., having a child...

  24. Hey

    naturalcuriosity replied to alilar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Did you call and find out about the form for the drug screening? I called and no one answered. I guess it is too late in the afternoon on Friday. Usually, the office staff seems to bail before 3pm on...
