    Question for Pediatric Nurses

    I'm not a peds nurse - just a student. But I'm guessing you'll probably do a peds rotation once in school, maybe try to get an externship or PCA job in that area, or perhaps try to get a...

    LPN demand in St. Louis, MO??

    I know nothing at all about LPNs or the St Louis area, but I'm inclined to follow the "if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is" philosophy.

    Ovaries Removed at Age 25?

    It's your decision to make, and since I'm not a nurse yet I don't have any practical advice.. just wanted to say good luck with whatever choice you make and hope you get some relief from your pain....

    Online Bachelor's degree

    Tweety is right - I think many state/local schools now offer online upgrade programs. Mine does, but I'm all the way down here in Mississippi.. http://www.muw.edu/nursing/tupelo Good luck!

    RN to BSN

    Congrats, Tweety! I've always been convinced that online courses required a good deal more work than their "traditional" counterparts! The price we pay for convenience, right?
  13. Congratulations! I wouldn't feel bad about quitting your job - but I think the proper thing to do is give a long enough notice (at least 2 weeks, right?) that they can begin the search for someone...

    I think it would be wise for all of us to remember to not make any widespread judgments about any particular class of nurses based on a very small segment of that population. Works both ways.
  20. I always thought it was pretty difficult for MTs to find "at home" jobs without some "in house" sort of experience. (I've not done it personally, but have a friend who worked as an MT and took one of...

    Do I LOOK Like A Nurse To You?

    Well, I have no idea why, but... in the "older students" club I'm VP of, whenever we go around or introduce ourselves to a new member and tell our major, people always tell me, "oh, you look like a...
