  1. What would you like to see in your scrubs?

    Wrinkle free. I hate ironing.
  2. For all INFP personality types only

    I'm an INFP also. I have been a RN for over 5 years and still haven't found my niche. However, I realize I don't like ED on day shift and am pretty much done with bedside care altogether.

  6. Things you'd like to say to....

    I think we work at the same place with the same pts.
  7. Working with others

    After almost 5 years of nursing, I have found NETY to be a very real phenomena. I wish it were not true but looking at the history of nursing or is something deeply ingrained in the profession. I believe it is long over due that we stand up to NE...

    What does the PERRLA program do?
  9. Chamberlain online RN to BSN March 2013 session

    In a way, informatics seemed easier because I had become accustomed to the expectations of the online learning environment. If you know how to do google searches, powerpoint presentations, and format documents in word then you could easily complete ...
  10. Chamberlain online RN to BSN March 2013 session

    Informatics was too easy. I'm taking health assessment in March also and the workload doesn't look too bad.
  11. Seriously?!?!

    Please tell me you made this up!
  12. Concerns on Chamberlain

    I'm currently attending CCN online RN-BSN/MSN and it is expensive. I got my ASN at a community college which was very affordable for me at the time. I went this route because I heard the statistics on how many new RNs leave the profession within th...
  13. That awkward moment when....

    That has got too be the best one!
  14. Caffeine Intolerance

    Has this happened before when you drank coffee?

    Bwaaaaah! I almost spit my soda out reading this! My sister woke me up one afternoon because she had a fever and wanted some Tylenol. When I went to give it to her I grabbed her wrist looking for her pt ID band.
  16. Triage complaints- the good, the bad, and the shocking.

    I've got one. Pt CC, "I need crackers. If you don't give me crackers now I'll turn into a transvestite!" I can't make this stuff up.

    Anyone have advice for ENGL147? There appears to be a lot of papers.
  18. Can anyone tell me about HCGH?

    I have an interview at HCGH for a position in the ED. Would anyone be willing to share their experiences, good or bad, working there?

    I know that it works for Android. I think it works for iphones
  21. RN-BSN July 2012..

    Kuntanya, what courses are you taking now? The first 2-3 weeks were rough for me because I got registered late and didn't get to do the preview week. I got the hang of it in a couple of weeks and did very well in both the courses I took.
  22. RN-BSN July 2012..

    It is expensive but the program is very highly rated and from several people that I consulted with, it is fast and has less hassle. The application and registration process was almost effortless.
  23. Need some advice asap!!!

    Transitions really doesn't have any papers. It has some assignments that require searches in EBSCOHost and CINAHL. I found SOC 350 to be challenging because there are several mini papers and essays (including in the quizzes and final exam) and the ...
  24. RN-BSN July 2012..

    As it stands right now, I am just enrolled in the RN-BSN program. I am contemplating continuing on with the MSN bridge program, but I was told by my adviser that I can decide just before my last semester.
  25. RN-BSN July 2012..

    I am finishing up both Transitions and SOC 50. I didn't find Transitions as being demanding, it was more like busy-work. SOC 350 was the real challenge for me. There are several mini papers and essays and one large project that is due at the end. ...
