praying here that you get positive results soon. :)

Will be praying for you.

I have worked on a post partum floor that covered antepartum, post op gyn surgeries, as well as post partum. *No couplet care. I am due to start my new job that is a couplet care unit. *I look forward to cross training after a while in L and D.

Good Luck to you both!!! I attended College of the Desert*for*nursing*school*and the Copper Moutain Campus to take care of pre requisites. My dh and I lived in 29 Palms for almost four years. 75 miles one way to nursing school each day. You all beat ...

Another military wife here. I was fortunate enough that on my dh's first duty station, we stayed put for four years. Enough time for me to complete nursing school. Due to the constant moves, a large family and potential deployments, I chose to sta...

I agree, Nurse is a title that is earned. I am very protective of my title. I hate the confusion that is generated when people call themselves a nurse. Maybe, it has something to do with the fact that our language does not have another word that ca...

I am so thankful that there is such a variety of people in the nursing profession. This variety allows us to work together to meet the needs for each specialty. Thank you for filling a very special need.

I am an ISFJ.....................

I have been an RN for 14 years and have NEVER worked in CA. I have managed to keep my CA license active because of my CEU's. Good luck in getting those CEU's completed for your license. Just a rabbit trail.....I don't think I will ever let my CA l...

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! Best Wishes as you being your new profession.

Anyone that has had a migraine will tell you.........that is NOT drug seeking. I can take one look at someone and I will know if they have a migraine or not. I have never had just a normal headache. All of my headaches have always been migraines. ...

Kimbalou, I too had to wait 10-12 weeks for my results....after two long days consisting of four test sessions. Puking did not come to mind after the sessions. I did go into my hotel room four months pregnant and tell them I was fried after two se...

Susan 9608, good idea. Another way I discouraged gossip was to say something edifying about the person. Counteract the gossip with a complement. Most of the time, it changed the entire atmosphere totally.

Working the night shift is where I discovered Moutain Dew. I would drink one around 0300 and that usually was enough to get me home safely. LOL. Sometimes, I would drink coffee, but not too often.

Congratulations !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I became a nurse, and am currently a stay at home mom. Looking forward to returning to the nursing profession upon my husband's retirement from the military. Five kids; three of which are teenagers, college costs s...

I once heard from a previous nursing school instructor that in a lot of cases (not all) that older people do better in nursing school than the younger students. Life is the best education. If you are healthy; doing this to fulfill a dream.....GO F...

Congratulations !!!!!!!!!!

The decision is ultimately for the two of you to make. I would really suggest you wait until after you are married. There are no guarantees in life, each day is a gift. That being said, I speak from personal experience as well as many that have ...

:yeahthat: ME too.

I don't care for cartoon tops personally, :lol2:I think they MIGHT be ok in Peds. but that is the only place I would consider wearing them.

Ok, so now if you want to be a nurse, you have to be perfect? I wonder how this job description would look..... HMMMM, Sounds like the peak of a slippery slope. I am thinking I better be careful what I post.:) I agree.....very close to profiling....

I am looking at returning to nursing after six years away....(my husband is active duty and we are currently overseas) . Since CA does not have a continuous work requirement, I have been able to maintain an active license by completing CEU's. Depen...

Leaving home and adjusting to being on your own is overwhelming. I left home at the age of 20 (I too lived in Memphis, born and raised)...and it was NOT easy. My dh is active duty military; therefore, I had no choice. The first year to year and a ...

CMColumbus, I agree totally. You only get one set of feet :) I too spend what I have to in order to take care of my feet while working.

Hoping here for a good result. :)
