  1. A classmate of mine told me she's a undocumented immigrant. My concern is this, what will happen after she gets her ADN? Will she be able to sit for the NCLEX ? Or will she even be able to get her degree? I just feel bad because she's gonna go throu...
  2. I'm currently a pre-nursing student and I started my new job at a medical office (OB/GYN) as a receptionist. I've been working in health care for over 5 yrs and I noticed that this office have patients fill out a patient intake form and thats it! I...
  3. I'm a pre-nursing student currently working at a doctor's office as a receptionist. I enjoy my job, LOVE the load of work (makes the day go by faster), but I can't stand this one co-worker, who wont do her job and she's VERY negligent! She's a close...
  4. Statistics Or College Math?

    I went to go see my advisor and he told me I have to take either Elements of Statistics or Survey of College Math, for the Nursing program. I told him I was really, really horrible at math and he suggested I take statistics. Honestly, I really don't...
  5. Statistics Or College Math?

    Well good for you that you did it all on your own. But at our school it's required to take an assesment test, talk with an advisor, then register for classes. And they encourage students to see an advisor if they're considering the Nursing program a...
  6. Statistics Or College Math?

    Because he's an idiot! Last year, I tried to sign up for a class and he told me I had to go to another campus because that particular course wasn't offered at "our campus." (my campus is 2 min. from my house) So I would travel to another campus in an...

    I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. My condolences go out to you and your family. You have to be stong for your children.
  9. Is Nursing safe?

    I'm currently a Pre-Nursing student, and I'm really excited about entering the world of Nursing and being able to care for others. Recently, I found out that one of the members at my church, who just graduated from the medical assistant program, is i...
  10. Is Nursing safe?

    Hi everyone, thank you for your posts! I'm glad I was able to read your comments, and I really appreciate those who weren't sarcastic or condescending.
  11. Can you sit for the NCLEX if you're an illegal immigrant?

    I go to Montgomery College in Maryland, and trust me..there's ALOT of illegals in my school. I wonder how they got in. Maybe the school ignores all that just to get money from students?
  12. Troublemakers in Class?

    I'm not in nursing classes yet, but I do know what you mean. Some will even have an offensive, condescending attitude towards the teacher/ instructor (which I think is very disrespectful), and others will even try to outsmart the teachers. Sometime...
  13. Migraines! How do you deal with this?

    I'm currently a Pre-nursing student, and been suffering from migraines for about a year. They wont go away, unfortunately, but I'm not going to let them interfere with my daily life. Being that Nursing is a stressful job, how do you deal with these a...
  14. What is the funniest thing that you have seen while working?

    Sorry, but I couldn't even laugh after reading Molyy's post. The lack of proper grammar was disctracting.
  15. caring for Spanish speaking patients

    You have to understand that alot immigrants who come to the U.S., mostly who are Spanish-speaking, will usually end up in a predominately hispanic area where everyone speaks Spanish. Therefore, they feel it isn't necessary to speak English. I also a...
  16. I think Ive met that ONE person....

    Don't let it get to you. I had a co-worker who was the same way, and I hated her for being so rude. Then, I was assigned to work next to her. Like, literally, right next to her. Soon, we became friends! Weird, huh?
  17. LVN to RN or Straight to RN?

    I would go straight for RN. There's alot more jobs for RN than for lvn, well in my area. That's just my opinion. I was about start a LVN program at a school, but it would cost $8,000 upfront, for 13 months. I decided to just go to a community college...
  18. rn

    Nobody is giving her a hard time. And the other posters are right. She should learn grammar first. Not to be mean, but it does help us read and undertsand her writing better. And that will play a major part when she goes into the nursing field. I use...
  19. Reason for nursing

    I know exacty what you mean. I was born with a cleft palate, had a tracheostomy done when I was 2 days old. I've spent most of the time with specialists and nurses than with my school teachers. I was always sick, But I loved being in hospitals as a c...
  20. When I was in labor, they had a female student as well. I was in so much pain that I didn't even care. It was too late for me to get an epidural. *GOOD TIMES, GOOD TIMES* If refusing a student to be present will make you feel better, then go for it....
  21. Does this sound strange to you?

  22. Does this sound strange to you?

    Don't they (schools) need records of where your child received his immunization and doctors signature?
  23. Have you seen late pregnancy turn women into monsters?

    I wish all mother-in-laws were sweet like yours.
  24. Being Sexually Harrassed

    First of all, I am so sorry that you're involved in this vile situtation. Hearing about this stuff bothers me on many levels. My question is this, why the heck are they having these lewd conversations at work? and in a hospital? Gross!! Does this ...
  25. Why do some nurse's act like they have just ate some sour grapes?

    Some nurses do hate their jobs, and those are not meant to be nurses, but then again every job out there is stressful.
