    2011NursingStudent replied to Skylarslaughter's topic in General Nursing

  5. I'm becoming discouraged about becoming a nurse :/ How will I get a job?

    2011NursingStudent replied to Skylarslaughter's topic in General Nursing

    Every field has a shortage of jobs right now (not a shortage of applicants), the economy goes through cycles and has never stayed depressed forever. Both the economy and hiring will pick

  6. Nursing Shoes

    2011NursingStudent replied to AlleycatLPN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    All of the pictures on their website, even the nursing shoes show no socks. With no socks or thin socks my feet sweat, though - usually I like low, white cotton gym socks but I think that would look...

  8. Nursing Shoes

    2011NursingStudent replied to AlleycatLPN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    This is probably a really stupid question, but I'm looking at the Alegria shoes and wondering what kind of socks you wear with them, or do you wear them without socks?? My flat feet are a huge pain...

    2011NursingStudent replied to JLChasteen's topic in General Students

    2011NursingStudent replied to carlarenee02's topic in General Students

    I had started grabbing fast food one too many times when I was busy, too. Just try to break yourself of that habit and plan meals on a Sunday night, and buy all the healthy stuff to make them at the...

    2011NursingStudent replied to LPNweezy's topic in General Nursing

    Also, in Illinois there is a mandatory number of educational hours that have to be devoted to Alzheimer's, so its possible this is true for other states as well. Obviously those hours can't be...

    2011NursingStudent replied to LPNweezy's topic in General Nursing

    In our CNA clinicals the seniors loved the attention, they had so much more ADL care from students than they were used to with the regular staff. We sat and filed their nails, did their hair, brushed...

  19. Wisconsin has gutted Medicaid, no mandated ratios!

    2011NursingStudent replied to EponaRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Corporations provide JOBS. If they hike corporate tax, corporations will leave your state for states with lower corporate tax. What would that help? Who could afford healthcare

  20. Wisconsin has gutted Medicaid, no mandated ratios!

    2011NursingStudent replied to EponaRN's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Wisconsin already has a high income tax rate (7%). If they can't afford to provide free healthcare, they can't afford it. You can't tax people much higher than 7% to the state, plus what they pay in...

    2011NursingStudent replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just out of curiosity, have you ever been to a clinical? You do realize that you will have to clean feces and urine, make beds, etc? You're going to have to become a little more modest at some point,...
