    Cherry2000 posted a topic in Nursing Humor

    I go in to work the other day and I have a gentleman that I have to toilet every 2 hours. So I take him in right before dinner, just like always. I went back about 5 minutes later and asked him if he...

    Cherry2000 replied to HeatherTN's topic in General Students

    I agree lovehospital. I think what really happens is that the process of making it through nursing school and then knowing afterward that he/she can support themselves and their family without their...

    Cherry2000 replied to HeatherTN's topic in General Students

    I went through something similar with my ex-husband. He knew that I wanted to return to college but kept telling me that he was going to go before me because he had never been. All fine and dandy but...

  7. Where did you work or type of jobs were you

    Cherry2000 replied to LulaNurse's topic in General Students

    I worked in a factory for 5 1/2 years before beginning nursing school. I had literally no experience in the health care field at all. I don't think that nursing schools really care about your

  9. Getting rid of student loan-Loan Forgiveness-New York

    Cherry2000 replied to jaja1234's topic in New York Nursing

    Wow that seems a bit harsh. It is the same question everyone else has been asking forever. The same with getting sign on bonuses etc. Being responsible for someone else's health has nothing to do with...

    Cherry2000 replied to Cherry2000's topic in General Students

    The hospital I am applying to doesn't require hospital aides to be CNAs, thankfully. I did fill out a pdf application and submitted it online yesterday, but I don't hold out much hope of getting a...

    Cherry2000 replied to Cherry2000's topic in General Nursing

    I am being offered a staff position. I am in my first semester of nursing school right now. From what I have seen there is no training for the staff. All of the pills are in those big M-F pill boxes...

  14. Group Home and Giving Meds

    Cherry2000 posted a topic in General Nursing

  16. How do you say no to a nursing buddy?

    Cherry2000 replied to IvyIV's topic in General Students

    The best thing to do would to become "very busy". You said she doesn't know you outside of school so she has no way of knowing what you are really doing. What I have done so far is to make myself...

  17. Is it possible to just get it???

    Cherry2000 replied to ParkerBC,MSN,RN's topic in General Students

  21. Can someone give me advice pls?

    Cherry2000 replied to sb8686's topic in General Students

    My recommendation would be to get at least some, if not all of the courses out of the way. Nursing classes are hard enough without having to stress about other classes. This is especially important if...
