  1. Sanford Brown MYTH

    I am a recent Grad and just passed my NCLEX RN with 75 on Tuesday. I think this college is great for the already experienced LPN. I was a good LPN and so were many in my class, the school works with non traditional students who have families and alre...

  3. Nurse tracking devices

    What happens if someone puts the device in one place while they go somewhere else, and maybe go somewhere else they really should not be because they have the TRACKING DEVISE as an alibi. HMMMM:uhoh21:

  5. Nurse tracking devices

    I think they need to end the nurse shortage before adding to the unattractiveness of our profession that others may see when viewing our profession, first have the available nurses to track. I mean do we really need to strangle the healthcare budget...
  6. What did u buy your first year of nursing?

    OK i have to know what state is this where you can buy a beautiful home like that, I would never afford anything that looks like that here in Missouri
  7. Barnes Jewish Colege of Nursing

    I guess my statement can be broad since I took ownership of my statement by stating "personally",I wasnt really seeking approval or disapproval, just commenting independently of anyone elses statement. So yes they are all acceptable to me as far as g...

    It can be expensive but since i had my science classes transferred in from Fontbonne College I only paid 17 thousand for the entire year and a half, which i chose to do instead of finishing in one year. if I had went to Oak wood college where I initi...
  9. I need a J.O.B

    How long should it take for a Hospital to call you back? I always state on my resume that I will call in a week to check my status, well, it hasnt been quite a week yet, so I'm just impatient I guess, but I really dont want to have to resort to givi...

  14. Should I do MY BSN online

    I currently have a ASN, just graduated in December, passed NCLEX on the 9th of JAn, and now I'm wandering should I do my BSN online and actually go to class for my Masters. That was my instructors advice, but I need more than one opinion.
  15. Can I expect to see this on 60 minutes in the next couple of years, because this is tragic enough to warrant their attention, I will add you to my prayers, God didnt assign you a nurse for nothing, He always has your back in the end. When the dust se...
  16. IS it ok to wear scrubs to an interview?

    I'm starting to think maybe that is one of the reason she was hired more place than me.:rotfl:
  17. IS it ok to wear scrubs to an interview?

    That my thoughts exactly, I never wore scrubs to an interview. I would feel too out of place. I think my friend maybe left out a something, like maybe she told them she was coming from work.
  18. my DON called today and told me i lost my job

    You can get your job back.contact EEOC, a similar situation happened to a co-worker of mine becasue she had to take a lot of time off due to her son's sickle cell disease they fired her and had to give it right back, they cannot terminate you under t...
  19. New grad bonuses?

    Des Peres Hospital was giving a 15,000 sign on bonus, I dont know if they are still offering it at this time.
  20. ADN or BSN. Which is better??

    The difference in our profession versus other professions, is that your duties actually do change once you get a B.degree. and nursing duties dont, so NO we have a profession that requires total care and knowldge no matter what degree you obtain beca...

  23. A nurse is a nurse is a nurse... not!

    I agree llg, continue education is important but only so much can be obtained unless you plan on crossing the path to becoming a doctor. furthering your degree should not , however, be as expensive as it is. If I were a RN with 15 years experience an...
  24. Difficulty with a CNA

    I do believe that if you think what you just stated, well, they may be able to see through the attitude if your genuine or not, and I'm not making excuses but your the professional and dont expect them to be, so you need to be more assertive and get...
  25. Yes expectations change all the time but not at the expense of wasting 40 grand with no hope of more aid. This is clearly a policy that does not have to be written in stone and can be modified for the seniors only considering their student loans and ...
