Do you need these nurses or staff people to do your job? More than likely you don’t. Ignore them and do your job. Don’t let the likes of people like that run you away from a job you like. That’s what they want and I wouldn’t let them mess with my...

I think your missing the point. This man Never wore one. Don’t try to downplay the protective capabilities of wearing a mask. Although it’s not 100% fool proof the chances of contracting the virus with everyone doing their part is almost zilch. I...

And I was doing the same. True, she should be cautious. I was just adding to what she said. As for some ppl not saying she has no right to stop being a nurse, it seems there are a few ppl judging her decision. Nursing like anything else isn’t ne...

If she allows her license to lapse that isn’t necessarily true. She would be held to the standards of her CNA position. As long as she upholds the requirements that a CNA is expected to do, she can’t legally be held accountable to do what the RN r...

I agree, we definitely need to double check behind administrators also. Clearly something is either wrong with the protocol in place or the nurse misinterpreted it. But either way, I think the administrators should still be able to tell this person...

Nope, there wasn’t.

Sounds like you really need to review the protocol in detail and become more familiar with it. And, seek clarification especially when it comes to dealing with narcs. Saying it was a verbal order when you didn’t actually receive one is irresponsibl...

And when did I call her insane? Read and get your facts straight. I clearly responded to what someone said about this being an “insane profession.” If your concerned about being able to have a discussion without the use of “derogatives” then start...

Well it’s not the profession that’s “insane,” you mean it’s some of the people working in it. It’s not for everyone especially those who can’t honor and uphold nursing ethics and codes of conduct.

Then why are you asking for advice if your not willing to listen to what people are saying or seem to already have the answer? If your okay with your very odd, wrongful and unprofessional behavior then don’t ask for people’s feedback. I don’t think...

Follow what your mind tells you, for you know your strengths and weaknesses. Math is a huge component in nursing and so is knowing your terminology. The more you know the better. If math is not a strong suite for you, i would definitely say take t...

thanks for posting this :) luv that it's formatted after the actual examination.

Congratulations everyone!! I'm Done with M/S III and Issues...one more semester to go! Hope everyone enjoys winter break! Time to get some R&R and celebrate.

You wouldn't think graduate nurses would be in low demand by any means. There is definitely a shortage in nursing but as others stated the present state of our economy really has things on hold! Hopefully our government will start getting it together...

Congratulations!!! I can't wait till I get to say those very words. I was at the Western Campus today when some of your classmates who were getting their final grades for Peds nearly alarmed the entire campus with screams of JOY. Faculty and securi...

WCCCD is absolutely accredited through the State of Michigan which is the only true seal of approval needed to graduate nurses. No school could run a nursing college without the 'States' approval period. So yes, WC3D is accredited. The accrediting in...

I know the waiting is frustrating. But it's important to not start this program, as well as any other, with a truly negative view of the school or else your experience will not be pleasant. So try to remain positive because your going to need every ...

Sorry things didn't work out for you at WC3. I am familiar with just about every university nursing program in the Metro Detroit area . All of the requirements and pre-reqs are listed online at their websites. Best thing is to call and set up a mee...

Made it through Psych and did pretty well. Had a good instructor and learned a lot. Now heading to M/S III Missgigius - did your class have their first exam the second week? CONGRATS everyone!!

Had these articles saved in my favorites folder for quite some time. I haven't had the chance to review the sites in depth since I'm not taking Issues just yet. I think the ones from Univ. of Missouri may show a detailed format of what should be incl...

LOL...someone reminded me of this too...I'm definitely not trying to prolong my graduation date by any means :) I must say though 8 mos in nursing school feels like an eternity! Wishing everyone a successful year!

Actually you don't have to be a fully licensed RN to pass meds or narcotics. You can be certified to do so such as in the case of Direct Care Workers that work in group homes/institutions. As a certified DCW I passed meds for well over five years ...

I've been offered a position that involves passing meds and possibly handling narcotics. Although a great opportunity to learn I'm feeling a bit uneasy since I haven't been able to speak with anyone at the nursing office since the move, and soon I'll...

:eek:LOL. Frankly I don't think it totally concerns them either. But, I just want to remain in compliance with my school's policies. After a year now of very hard work and personal challenges because of being in nursing school, the last thing I want ...

I also have a degree in Psych. I am currently in my second year of an ADN program. I have to say I WISH that I became a CNA and had other experience before I entered the program. It could have helped me with my anxiousness and apprehension when I fir...
