   NoahNS replied to natkoz82's topic in Florida Nursing

   From the various responses so far I think one can at least discern that not "everyone" hates Florida. Like so many other matters in life, much is really just a question of personal taste. Having lived...

   NoahNS replied to prettylittlenurse2b's topic in General Students

   A number of clues leave me with the impression that there may be more to this thread than a "hatred of nursing." For starters, the OP's username "prettylittlenurse2be" seems to suggest a certain sense...

3. HELP! I got dismissed from my nursing school

   I haven't read through this entire thread, but something I haven't noticed thus far is any mention of a gender issue. Something I would encourage the OP to consider is the nature of the postings thus...

   NoahNS replied to sweetiez's topic in General Students

   Thank you dan for responding to my query. I've gained a lot of insight from this forum. One of the things that disturbs me most about this new career I've embarked on in nursing is all the collegial...

8. Age you will/were graduated?

   NoahNS replied to sweetiez's topic in General Students

   Hello dan... I was a little intrigued by what may have prompted you to pursue a career in nursing when you were already a paramedic... particularly at age 56 :) Sincerely,

9. I was a ______ prior to being a nurse/student nurse

   NoahNS replied to nurz2be's topic in General Nursing

   When I used to chat on line I was always surprised to meet so many nurses who claimed to have worked as exotic dancers in their previous life. It surprised them, too. No one here, so far, seems to...

    NoahNS replied to abooker's topic in General Nursing

    Eliza... I think the issue you raise and the rationale/quote you pose may be a little more nuanced, but I agree (as I've mentioned in a previous post on this thread) that the patient's wishes should...

13. EEK! There's a MAN in my room!

    NoahNS replied to abooker's topic in General Nursing

    "And caring, nurturing, gentleness and kindness = nursing, and people think of that as feminine, I am happy." Is it only your patients you treat with... "caring, nurturing, gentleness and kindness"? I...
