1. Navy Nursing while engaged/married

   teiladay replied to mlockwood358's topic in Government, Military

   It's important to keep in mind that while the Department of Defense does not as a rule pay for spouses to go on deployment, it is not uncommon for spouses to relocate themselves to deployment locales...

2. Poop Free Nursing Jobs in the Hospital?

   teiladay replied to IcySageNurse's topic in General Nursing

   I think this is the kind of response the OP was trying to avoid. There are many things that people don't like doing (in many occupations), but will do it in school because they know they won't have...

3. It really annoys me when nurses say they are going to go to med school...

   teiladay replied to megank5183's topic in General Nursing

   Wendy's considers their workers "professional" too. I'm not arguing that point, or speaking in that context. The fact of the matter is that (and I used this word intentionally in my previous post)...

   teiladay replied to megank5183's topic in General Nursing

   You are 100% correct, and it just doesn't affect medical schools either. It affects most math/science based degrees. The reason is because community colleges generally do not offer the same rigor in...

   teiladay replied to megank5183's topic in General Nursing

   You're kidding right? What are you talking about? Many PA's actually take a Pre-med d-e-g-r-e-e program as their undergraduate degree so they knock two birds out with one stone. 1. The PA student...

   "J.D., LLM, SSD = professional degrees".... whoops! I meant to put SJD (law doctorate) not SSD.

   teiladay replied to megank5183's topic in General Nursing

   1. Do not be mislead. The "minimum" requirement to take the NCLEX (2 year or 4year institution) absolutely does not include General Chemistry at many institutions, and never has. 2. The biology...

   teiladay replied to megank5183's topic in General Nursing

   ... The cold reality however, is that for most nurses (or most people for that matter) to even come close to completing the requisite science courses, they will pretty much complete a science based...

9. Young, Thin, and Cute New Hires

   teiladay replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   ... Not today, but if you were a frequent (or even infrequent) flyer in the 60's and 70's you'd recall nearly 100% of flight attendants looked like that at many (every?) airlines, back when airlines...

10. Online BSN - Is it taken seriously?

    teiladay replied to Jmiami's topic in General Nursing

    The debt from people who went "4 years straight" will generally have debt in the same ballpark whether they took their classes online or not at the same, or a similarly ranked institution. Many...

11. ACCEPTED!!!!!!

    teiladay replied to Mrs.Priss's topic in General Students

    I think preference is given in Indiana for those with ties to the region. TEAS not required for many (most?) bachelor and master degree (those who start their RN training on a graduate level who...

12. Nursing and smoking....can it hinder your career?

    teiladay replied to Juryizout's topic in General Nursing

    I agree 100% with you should be able to do what is legal for in your private time. If you want to model nude on your off days and run a Media site, I couldn't care less if I was an institution's...

13. I hate what's happening to nursing...

    teiladay replied to nyteshade's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    What caught my attention with your comment was that you felt prompted to "tell your daughter to be a veterinarian" instead of a nurse. The two jobs aren't even on the same planet as far as...

14. Excelsior can take you places ... AKA, why it's all worth it

    teiladay replied to Lunah's topic in Online Distance Learning

    100% accurate. One would be required to have a family care plan, which doesn't even have to be the non custodial parent. When the service member is deployed, generally the designated care taker...

15. Is this cheating?

    teiladay replied to BluegrassRN's topic in General Students

    Of course it isn't cheating, otherwise most of the research done all over the world would be considered "cheating" when most research is based on research that has already been done, and quite often...
