    Disrespectful ad against nurses on Craigslist

    Gave 2wk notice, then taken off the schedule early... Really?!!

    klone replied to Cola89's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Are you just talking about taking you off the schedule one day early, or is there more to it than that? Because that, in and of itself, I do not see as rude at all, and is fairly common in

    Questions for Planned Parenthood Nurses

    klone replied to ilovelamp's topic in General Nursing

    The pay, at least in Denver, is not good for an RN, which is literally the only reason why I don't work for them. For a new grad it might be okay, but as an experienced nurse, I would have had to take...

    Questions for Planned Parenthood Nurses

    One of our regular posters works at Planned Parenthood as a CNM; maybe she will see this and answer. You may have more luck posting this in the OB/Gyn or CNM

    How do you explain the DNP?

    klone replied to FreudianSlip's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    What you said above makes no sense. Skill and learning are not finite. Physicians read journals and go to conferences (and yes, even get other degrees) because IT ADDS TO THEIR PRACTICE. That does not...

    How do you explain the DNP?

    klone replied to FreudianSlip's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    That's kind of a dickish thing to say. Because he's disagreeing with you, his opinion isn't relevant? He is an NP, not a layperson. Emphasis on UNCOMPLICATED. Not all pregnancies are uncomplicated....

    MSN through WGU - Any advice to get it as quickly as possible?

    klone replied to ERtoPACUtoMSN's topic in Western Governors University

    I feel like I already responded to this post. WGU no longer requires a research project that involves IRB approval. Even if it did, it would be impossible to do that part ahead of time because you...
