  9. Florence against men

    I have a quote here from Luther Christman PhD,RN,FAAN that Florence Nightingale did everything she could to eliminate men from nursing. I know she is such an iconic hero to so many people but this is very interesting. I am doing a research paper on C...

    The LPN program at Concorde is about $24000.00 This includes everything. Shots, books, scrubs, bookbag, instruction, and all the pre-req's are rolled into the course. Plus you'll be IV certified when you graduate. I think they even pay for your firs...

    Dr. MLK jr was a remarkable man...but it is well known that he had a lover other than his wife...and he was a minister. jc;) Yes..I mean NO, he shouln't have had a lover, but we can forgive him for that. But being a minister...now that's unforgivable...
  14. Stupid things your school does/did

    Being required or expected to submit to a state of humility in a class setting does nothing to adjust one into the state of being a sensitive or knowlegable nurse. As others have pointed out, who among us has not had a physical exam already? Knowing...
  15. Stupid things your school does/did

    maybe the dummies we should use are the program directors from the schools. I'm sure they would be MOST understanding.
  16. Stupid things your school does/did

    Flat out ask if there is any undressed or semi-undressed examinations between students. Try and get into a school with a good clinical (off-site) program.
  17. Stupid things your school does/did

    This probably means you WOULD make a good nurse. Nursing is about taking care of the whole being. Batman You deffinately want to know before you invest the time and the money.
  18. Stupid things your school does/did

    It's up to you. Personally I would rather go through the stress and humiliation and start right away than get on a 2 year waiting list
  19. body fluids, vomit, feces, smells, etc.

    Oh great! I'm becoming a nurse to be a 'mouth breather'. Not much of a compliment. I guess by the end of my 12th hour my knuckles will be dragging on the ground.

  24. Good Bye to Nursing for me...

    Be sure you give pregnancy as THE reason for taking a break from nursing! You will have it as a leg to stand on if you ever want to return.
  25. Stupid things your school does/did

    We don't do the practice on each other thing but I'm the only guy in the class and I have a great deal of FineArts training (I've visually studied nudes with great intensity for hundreds of hours m&f) so I have lots of experience with the differe...
