  1. Nurses...Miserable?

    Actually, I'm a Christian and I don't understand much of what you said either. I also read all of your comments. For someone who has yet to work as a nurse, you sound very righteous and at times...
  2. Nurses...Miserable?

    ITA... you forgot to mention that she also stated that she is going to go into the patients room, do the job, and walk out. No personal relations... won't bring work home. However... nursing is a...
  3. Nurses...Miserable?

    Boy vanillavirture... you seem to have all the
  4. My ER experience....what do you think??

    I disagree about driving yourself to the emergency room. Sometimes there is no other choice... I drove myself to the ER (well Urgent Care to start with) and had to have my gall bladder out as an...
  5. I seem to know less the most

    Well, you want to make sure they are approved by your State's Board of Nursing. It's also good to find out what the passing rate is for the NCLEX. Some schools have fairly high passing rates......
  6. I seem to know less the most

    ITA. You need to figure out which school you want to go to and make an appt with a counselor there. They will tell you exactly what you need to know. I wouldn't start reading anything just yet...
  7. Going the happy dance!

    Congratulations! Now it's time to party!! Way to go!!
  8. Can labor nurses be sued by the babies?

    Wow! I never knew
  9. Do you say you're a nurse...

    From a patients point of view, I just cared that I had a nurse to help take care of me. At the time, I didn't really know what the difference was, nor did I know who was the LPN or the RN. At times, I...
  10. I tried to post this in the nursing news forum yesterday, but it hasn't shown up yet, I just wanted you all to know. My heart goes out to this family. I'm very sad....
  11. The Runaway Bride Wants to be a Nurse!

    While I don't really approve of what she did... I don't think it's fair to ridicule her. Maybe she had some serious underlying emotional/behavioral disorder that caused her to do what she did..??.....
  12. Would this work? If so, why hasn't it been done?

    I have a question... Do the nurses that triage the patient ever find out what the dx is after the ER visit is done? I'm curious because I had a horrible stomach ache for 48+hrs. I had cramping in my...
  13. Is nursing hereditary?

    My mom was an LPN and my sister is an RN. My first cousin is a NP (started as CNA, then LPN, then RN, then NP)... I tried to avoid it... I went to school for something totally different, but here I...
  14. Hello everyone! I hope you are all having a nice (backtoschool) day! I know I am! LOL The house is much quieter. I currently am volunteering at a local community hospital on the OB floor. I've...
  15. New Grad in CA needs Advice

    i'm not sure what sort of requirements are asked of nurses working in corrections. i have a correction/law enforcement degree and i had certain criteria to meet when i applied as a correctional...
  16. New Grad in CA needs Advice

    Yeah... I don't get it... first of all... who would give a rats bleepitybleep if you were gay or not... and secondly... how in the world did he come to that conclusion anyway?? Because you are a male...
  17. New Grad in CA needs Advice

    I've come to the conclusion they are trying to get a rise out of everyone. If they think that Correctional Nursing is a great fit and are questioning if they can carry a gun.... I mean come...
  18. New Grad in CA needs Advice

    [ what i dislike about Urgent Care: too many illegal immigrants seeking free services who can't afford to go to a real ER. you're limited in the type of patients you see (you don't see real trauma,...
  19. New Grad in CA needs Advice

    No offense, but I felt like I was on speed while I was reading your post. It sounds to me like you need a discussion with yourself, not anyone here. All areas of nursing require a lot of teaching...
  20. Hey everyone! I hope you are having a good week so far. I need some advice... I took Chem last fall and got an A. It wasn't easy, but I worked at it and did fairly well. I have one more Chem class...
  21. How big is your "unit"?

    Ok... so am I the only one who thought this title was
  22. Car Seats...

    Hi there. I am a pre-nursing student... but I volunteer on the birthing floor at our local hospital. We as volunteers, and the nurses also, are not allowed AT ALL to even hint about proper car seat...
  23. Has anyone taken Chem in the summer??

    I have a feeling that everything that happened to you during your summer class would happen to me as well!! My family has been in a slump these last 6 months and it's probably going to get worse...
  24. Has anyone taken Chem in the summer??

    I actually still have the book as I had to drop the class after the first day... I hope they use the same textbook in the fall or that's 110.00 down the tubes! Thats a good idea though... I think...
  25. Has anyone taken Chem in the summer??

    Thank you. That's the way I'm leaning too. I just feel that if I wait another semester my brain won't remember the stuff from my last Chem class! LOL I'm sure it will come back to me though!...
