  1. Being a man in the field

    Nitngale replied to tigress_8207's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Are your classes in Nigeria? My experience has been that the male nurses I see are just regular men not 'soft', whatever that means. The profession requires a certain amount of decorum. I would not...

  2. Parents not supporting me but Im Starting Lvn program next month paying 800 a month!

    Nitngale replied to mynameizjim's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    It sounds as if you're going to a private school. It might be cheaper to try a community college or adult schoool, many of which are approved. The amount you'll be paying per month sounds like loan...

  3. help me please(Ukraine)

    Nitngale replied to Dennis78's topic in International Nursing

    Sorry Dennis, I just realized you're Ukrainian. I don't know if the info on Russia would be much help. There are probably Ukrainian groups in America that could assist you as

  4. help me please(Ukraine)

    Nitngale replied to Dennis78's topic in International Nursing

    I live in California so that is where I get my info. The cheapest is a community college, if you're a resident. You do not fit in that category as yet. Next would be an "Adult School" which is usually...

  5. Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    Nitngale replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    You're right, that is a load of crap and McCain is just a lackey trying to look moderate to get elected president. I work for 7.50 an hour plus tips delivering pizza (I start LVN school soon,...

  6. Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    Nitngale replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I try. I write, phone and e mail my useless congressman and senators (it really doesn't matter what party they are----their loyalty is to the business that pay for their reelection campaigns) almost...

  7. Racism in the workplace

    Nitngale replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    There are no male ones either! Nor are there older icons! I'm seeing a pattern here. If you went by the icons---most of us are yellow with a smiling face

  8. Being a man in the field

    Nitngale replied to tigress_8207's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I'm not a guy but I'll give you a different perspective. I've always worked in male dominated jobs--heavy equipment mechanic, welding, law enforcement and I personally think that women make it easier...

  9. Colorado - Illegal Immigrants no longer eligble for state health care

    Nitngale replied to hope3456's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I too know of a case. My friend's son is married to a Chinese lady, whom came here 20 years ago at age of 19. She followed her 8 brothers . All received college educations here and they're all in the...

  10. Racism in the workplace

    Nitngale replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    That is incredible. To say something about a co worker is unethical, but to say anything derrogatory about a patient is immoral. I've seen staff talk about a dying patient dying, especially if they're...

  11. Racism in the workplace

    Nitngale replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    I was stationed in Augusta, GA and not only did they refer to me as a Yankee (I'm from CA) but they knew I was from CA. I was surprised 'cuz I never think of Californians as having an accent. Maybe it...

  12. Racism in the workplace

    Nitngale replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    :wink2: There is another reason though. I have a cousin in South Dakota whom works in a hospital there (RT). There are no Black nurses, but then the Black population there is 0, and probably less...

  13. Racism in the workplace

    Nitngale replied to staygold's topic in General Nursing

    It is kinda of funny to read the different views and see how most of them are formed more by what the media tells us is right or wrong. I was raised to respect all people. My Mother would never have...

  14. Stay with good paying job, or go with LVN program??? NEED ADVICE.....

    Nitngale replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    How many bay area people are out there. Soon2, it sounds like you're thinking of going to Western Career College. I just came back from a 'seminar' there and was deflated to say the least. I was...

  15. Can I earn RN online?

    Nitngale replied to busykymom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you go directly into a NPractioner program with a Bachelors in anything?? And they're at the top of the pay scale, but it is not an online program (thank...

  16. how expensive is california? CAN A NURSE MANAGE WITH HER WAGE??

  18. Western Career College??

    Nitngale replied to nursemelani's topic in LPN to RN

    Nitngale replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in California Nursing

    Just checked it out and San Jose has an ROP program. They're located at 760 Hillsdale Ave. They have an LVN program starting Jan '07. Hope this

  20. Any affordable LVN programs in the EAST BAY

    Nitngale replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Soon2. I too live in the east bay and am considering an lvn program and eventually rn. Whoever mentioned the community college programs is right but I do believe there is a waiting list. I was...
