  1. Balancing Nurse Practitioner School/Career and Motherhood

    BCgradnurse replied to melp4's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    My kids were older when I went back to school, so my experience may not be totally relevant to your situation. It was hard. My kids were at an age where they were more cognizant of my absence and...

  2. Nurses smoking weed?

    BCgradnurse replied to bunnynurse's topic in General Nursing

    Nope-I'd rather have a nice glass of wine to relax. And wine doesn't make me want to eat everything that's not tied

  3. 4/16 What I learned this week: POD2 and I want my button back

  4. FNP job type options

    BCgradnurse replied to LiveFit99's topic in Advanced Practice

    FNPs are most often utilized in outpatient (office) practices, Urgent Care, and maybe Fast Track ER. I think that anyone who wans to work inpatient should pursue ACNP, either adult or pedi. I work in...

  5. From night shift nursing to Fitness Model

    BCgradnurse replied to laurendrainfit's topic in General Nursing

    I admire your dedication to your goals. I think we can all relate to the stress involved in nursing and how it can lead to unhealthy habits. I have no trouble getting motivated, but that motivation...

  6. What is instrumental to your success?

    BCgradnurse replied to bhudgins's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Here are my 5 1> Hard work. Pure and simple. I studied my butt off in school and I continue to work hard and learn every day. 2> Supportive mentors and colleagues. My first job was awful, but...

  7. Where do you get your cont Ed?

    BCgradnurse replied to Iheartnursing's topic in General Nursing

    I do one live conference a year and then do a bunch of online stuff. I usually go to Medscape if I have 10-15 minutes to do a quick CE

  8. United Healthcare Housecalls

    BCgradnurse replied to tabalou's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Hi Ashley,, Just an FYI-it's not a good idea to use your real name as your user name. You want to be able to talk freely (barring HIPAA violations) and you don't want anything to come back and bite...

  9. The film: Vaxxed.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    We're all too tough to flounce. Well, most of the time,

  10. The film: Vaxxed.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    You beat me to it. She just jumps in, stamps her feet, and flounces

  11. The film: Vaxxed.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, and what was your motivation to come to a nursing website to argue your point, whatever that point may

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    Can you please use the quote button? I have no idea what you're referring to and I don't want to go hunting through all the posts to figure it

  13. The film: Vaxxed.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    And we all know how attorneys can twist words and language to make their client's point. They have no real qualifications to interpret medical research. Just because the court decided in a certain...

  14. The film: Vaxxed.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    And once again,a whole bunch of words that don't mean much. Italian courts rule that vaccines cause autism? Are the judges and the jury also medical professionals? A court of law does not have the...

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    Mine has been bleeding for

  16. The film: Vaxxed.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    Wakefield is a charlatan. My guess is he made this movie purely for monetary gain, not out of altruism. He lost his livelihood due to his fraud and he has to pay the bills somehow. And Banterings, I...

  17. Patient threat and HIPAA

    BCgradnurse replied to sistrmoon's topic in General Nursing

    Nope.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

  19. Advance Practice Preceptorships - Should students find their own preceptors?

    BCgradnurse replied to husky171's topic in Advanced Practice

    It sounds like it might not be worth it financially for you to pursue your

  20. Has nursing made you negative?

    BCgradnurse replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    It's made me a bit more snarky and a lot more

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

  22. Advance Practice Preceptorships - Should students find their own preceptors?

    BCgradnurse replied to husky171's topic in Advanced Practice

    I precepted students when I worked in primary care. I felt that I should give back and I really enjoyed it. Now I'm in a specialty that many students aren't interested in. Precepting is...

  23. 04/09 WILTW: Confused LOLs

    BCgradnurse replied to cracklingkraken's topic in General Nursing

    This week I learned that my soon to be ex-boss is really just phoning it in, and should retire. I am so glad I am leaving soon. I learned that there is nothing funnier than a group of tipsy middle...

  24. Advance Practice Preceptorships - Should students find their own preceptors?

    BCgradnurse replied to husky171's topic in Advanced Practice

    I agree with those above. One of the reasons I chose my school was because it matched us with preceptors for our NP clinicals. I would not give my money to a school that left me hanging out int he...

  25. The film: Vaxxed.

    BCgradnurse replied to macawake's topic in General Nursing

    My thoughts exactly. You'd have to be some kind of sick sadist (or masochist, if you yourself are not immunized) to eschew primary prevention and then try to treat the resulting infection. Or else...
