    jackson145 replied to lilmaxine02's topic in General Nursing

  10. trying to remain optimistic

    jackson145 replied to 3rdgenRN2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My family isn't against it, but they don't want to hear about it either. Their feelings are that it's my dream not theirs. They don't mind my pursuing it, but they also don't want to discuss my...

  13. Getting along with classmates??

    jackson145 replied to toreyjane's topic in General Students

    I'm worrying about the same thing. I'm hoping that the jealousy will fade once the competition of getting into the program is over. I have made a good friend through pre-reqs and we've agreed to be...

  14. Valet Parking

    jackson145 replied to Roseyposey's topic in General Nursing

    Seems like a waste for visitors (unless elderly?) I think it would be a great idea for the ER, though. I can't think of a worse time to search for a parking space than during a MI/kidney...

  17. Valet Parking

    jackson145 replied to Roseyposey's topic in General Nursing

    I think patients would be most pleased with more staff. Most of the complaints I hear are that they had to wait for their medicine or help to the BR, etc. I've never seen a floor with adequate...

    jackson145 replied to Roseyposey's topic in General Nursing

    In reality, the shift is toward customer service and not it's not just in healthcare. Also, insurance premiums cost a lot these days and people expect these services. We don't have to like it, but...

    jackson145 replied to marie-francoise's topic in General Nursing
