  9. I would invest in a lab book. Hopefully the book store at your school sells them. It can give you some insight in how to interpret the test results. I also liked this site as a student...

  13. clinic nurses pay

    I make a dollar more then the hospital nurses do (I work clinic) but I do not get shift diffs or OT. Its a quality of life thing for me. I get weekends and all paid holidays
  14. Why no nursing love from Grey's?

    I admit I love ER and do watch Greys from time to time. ER is not as bad as Grey and I have thought about giving them up for the reason they do not protray nurses correctly. I often laugh myself...

  22. better to be an rn or an lpn?

    I would say go for the RN if you can. LPN programs are 4 quaters and RN programs are 6 quaters. If you want to bridge from LPN to RN it is 3 quaters. So doing a bridge is one extra quater. For me when...
  23. How do you choose?

    For me I interviewed everywhere then made my choice. For me I "just knew" the moment I interviewed there it was the right place. Friendly nurses, great pay, great location, great shift. I was sold on...
