  1. I feel so bad

    I felt really bad for this woman. Could it be indicating a possible hormone inbalance? I mean this was not just a few sporifice hairs and she also had some chest hair and chin hair. I was just...
  2. Bunch of Questions for LTC LPN's.. Help I'm new!

    I believe that what you are feeling is totally normal. School does not totally prepare you for working. You will be fine once you start working. They will give you training and if after that you...
  3. Nurses children and vaccinations, how do you feel?

    My son's pediatrician said he would not have lifetime protection with the vaccine and, as we all know, chicken pox as an adult can be bad. As a previous poster mentioned we don't always know the...
  4. Nurses children and vaccinations, how do you feel?

    I worked for a school district and had a woman who taught there insist that vaccines were the cause of her child's autism. She actually headed a group that tried to "educate" people about the dangers...
  5. Anyone have an "unsupportive mate"?

    Just remember education opens doors. I went through nursing school and after graduation took my son and left my husband. I was no longer afraid because I knew that with an LPN (hope to get RN...
  6. Blood Pressure Kits for Obese??

    I think, after reading the information on forearm bp, that it is a good idea to buy a cuff. They even say that it is not as accurate on the
  7. Scary Career Wrecker?

    Officegirl, I am sorry this happened to you and even though you did nothing wrong and everyone knows it, I know it is scary. Please do not worry. Monday will come and everything will be okay. If it...
  8. Scary Career Wrecker?

    I was working for a group of doctors and received a call from a pharmacy asking me to clarify an order for a pain killer that was left on there voicemail by me. I explained we never leave messages on...
  9. Need your thoughts

    Someone posted that they were in the RN program and failed twice. This time the instructor said she was "unsafe". It was posted that she should get her LPN and get some experience before she goes...
  10. Need your thoughts

    My fear is that depending on how far she has made it in the RN program she can go out and sit for the NCLEX PN and pass. Then she could begin working on your family member. She may be book smart but...
  11. Can I practice with married name?

    I just recently returned to using my maiden name. I will be getting married again at the end of February. I have not contacted the board of nursing yet but would like to return to working in...
  12. Adoption option?

    I absolutely agree with these posts and I was a teenage mom. I had my beautiful son right after graduation. I wanted to put my son up for adoption because I knew that he should not pay for my...
  13. Do I have to mention jobs?

    I have a quick question. I am an LPN and am wanting to get back into it after some time off. When I graduated I took 3 different jobs in long term care but had to quit them within 2 months each time...
  14. First and Last Year in Nursing

    I don't think the point of this thread was to have negative feedback. It seemed to be about someone who was very "let down" by what is going on in nursing and looking for some support and options....
  15. First and Last Year in Nursing

    I am sorry to read you are feeling this way but, I understand. It is probably a good idea to look into other areas of nursing. There are plenty and some may pay better and give you more time for...
  16. How long can I wait?

    I graduated nursing school in 2004. I worked in a doctor's office after graduation but did no hands on care. I worked there for approx. 1 year. I am now working in a school but doing no nursing. My...
  17. I have a son that WAS circumcised. I thought I would never have to worry about adhesions. When he was 5 years old his member was red and swollen. I took him to the pediatrician who told me he had...
  18. How long can I wait?

    I graduated LPN school in 2004. Since then there have been dramatic changes in my life. First, I am going through a divorce (UGLY). I had worked for a group of doctors for almost 10 months but do...
