  1. This can not possible be true!

    *RubySlippers* replied to Coloradogrl's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Very good pay, how long have you been a RN and what area/state do you work in, if you don't mind sharing. Just curious, will graduate in May 07 and don't know where I want to work yet.

  2. Is there power in the color white?

    *RubySlippers* replied to bbfw2's topic in General Nursing

    However, I do admit to not wearing my whites when I know school clinicals are going to be in. All the local programs, both RN and LPN, wear whites, in different styles. And I worked too hard for too...

  3. Is there power in the color white?

    *RubySlippers* replied to bbfw2's topic in General Nursing

    I agree....., now where my mother works they have been allowed to wear any colors or patterns, now they are going to certain colors for certain departments and levels of staff. Now, what patient...

  4. sick of ADN vs BSN! like most of us have a choice anyway!

    *RubySlippers* replied to okie2's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I lived in Hickory North carolina for 13 years, took all of my basics for $30.00 a credit hour at Catawba Valley Community College in Hickory NC, moved to Kentucky near Hazard, Hazard community...

  5. sick of ADN vs BSN! like most of us have a choice anyway!

    *RubySlippers* replied to okie2's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    You are right, that must be in your neck of the woods, most people around here in KY think ADN is high level on its own, and it is also very competetive, around 300-500 apply depending, and usually...

  6. How are you judgemental?

    *RubySlippers* replied to GardenDove's topic in General Nursing

    First off, I never read one nurse say they treated their patient unproffessional, in this thread. 2nd this is a way for Nurses to get things that bother them out in the open, which is good old Psych...

  7. "I don't want to do bed side nursing"...SAY WHAT!

    *RubySlippers* replied to lauralassie's topic in General Nursing

    :smiley_ab wow, what a great debate this has become. :monkeydance: good for you. you hold a nursing degree, you practice in a field of nursing, you are a nurse. which brings me back to the definition...

  8. "I don't want to do bed side nursing"...SAY WHAT!

    *RubySlippers* replied to lauralassie's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, most people do go into it for the money, and I am one of them, I found myself at the age of 33 with a Cosmetologist license and a lot of sporifice part time job experience. My sons are a...

  9. "I don't want to do bed side nursing"...SAY WHAT!

    *RubySlippers* replied to lauralassie's topic in General Nursing

    Again, this quote above is the reason why (I feel like, in my opinion) people need to learn Nursing is Diverse, and quit putting down nurses who don't want to do patient care. These nurses sure don't...

  10. Learning Disabled Students

    *RubySlippers* replied to dmarie (GA)'s topic in General Nursing

    i am sorry but, i think this is a blatent bias against people with learning disabilites. you have said in other posts after this that you weren't trying to offend anyone, just ask a question, but the...

  11. "I don't want to do bed side nursing"...SAY WHAT!

    *RubySlippers* replied to lauralassie's topic in General Nursing

    First of all I am not trying to step on anyones toes, or down play what nurses did in the past, or tech jobs, CNA, etc. I am stating facts & my own personal feelings which I think everyone on this...

  12. "I don't want to do bed side nursing"...SAY WHAT!

    *RubySlippers* replied to lauralassie's topic in General Nursing

    Well you know, not everyone goes into nursing today to be a Hospital floor nurse, and by no means is there anything wrong with that. I am in my 3rd semester of RN school and I have done my fair share...

  13. CONTINUED IN WHAT IS THE MAJOR REASON Why are they all leaving?

    *RubySlippers* replied to artistnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Hello, I am new to this site, I have read stories for months now, but, I just had to reply to this post. I hate med/surge too, I am not a floor nurse for sure, I want to work Psych, I plan on...
