so you prefer taking ACLS at Phil. Heart Center? Ok! Thanks for this thread.:)

When i was on my senior year in college, i overheard 2 nurses in a local hospital's nurses' station chatting. One of them said that she's been a volunteer in that hospital for more than 6 mos. no salaries, no allowance, no nothing. I thought how will my life be after i pass the nurses' licensure exam. I promised myself that i won't be like those who after much 'nursing business' took from our pocket, just be okay for working without pay. Of course nursing is a vocation. It's caring for others, right? But how will you care for others if on the first place you don't have something for your own living too? Now, the only hope of many fresh nurses like me is to have a qualifying experience to be able to work abroad. So they end up being exploited against their will just to satisfy the requirements for their chosen country of destination. I'm a victim too. More supply, less demand. Poor Filipino nurses. Very sad.

No. I personally do not think it is an immoral thing. Perhaps you are just new to the idea. But in some beliefs, they really do not prefer having it because it oulaws their principles:uhoh3:, maybe, and believe that everyone can have the natural way of gaining beauty or looking up to ten years younger. Maybe you are one of those! Smiling will make you look younger.

I don't know this yet. Does anyone here know which of the following are facts and myths? > You should feed a cold and starve a fever; > Poison ivy rash is spread by the fluid that leaks from the rash; > Canker sores are very contagious, and; > The best way to treat a fever is with an alcohol bath. -curious :monkeydance:

Surgeon: Great! My memory's failing me again. Where's the heck is the scalpel?!

In the current institution that i am in, i've seen very few male nursing students. Some say they're just forced to by their mums; others go for the big salary... the growing population of nurses today include mostly the females, as i see it.
