  2. Taking NCLEX - RN

    Totally possible. The review courses in their sales pitch try to psych you out about the NCLEX. I was nervous about bypassing it but had no time to get into a review course as I took the NCLEX 9 days after graduation. I was in and out in an hour w...
  3. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    It worked for me within two hours of testing. Thank goodness my state does quick results because the two days it took was just about enough to lose my sanity.
  4. Employment Dilemma

    The NP programs I've looked at require 2 years critical care. I would research the school you're applying to because I'm not sure home health may fit your needs. Keep your eyes on the goal, if it is to be a NP then make the sacrifices now to meet t...
  5. Hrsa 08-09 Nursing Scholarship

    Nope not yet. Its been pretty much the last tuesday of the month, occasionally sooner then that but not today. Hopefully tomorrow but the paystub says the 30th of October so I think definately by Friday. Yes its free money and I'm very grateful b...
  6. Anyone?? Baptist LVN-RN ??

    No, from what I understand the LVNs have to apply and have three months of clinical experience to start RN school. You only get credit for one semester of school so you'll be doing one year for LVN and then applying after you have the experience and...

  10. I was violated by a doctor

    It relates to the usage of "violated" to sensationalize his complaint but is directed at the OP.
  11. I was violated by a doctor

    the exam was fine....nothing out of the ordinary. when the doctor reviewed my medical record....he asked me about my sexual health history. "mr._____, i see that you came to our clinic a few months back for std/hiv testing. are you wanting to get tes...
  12. Job market prefers BSN , turns away ADN

    I would hazard a guess that people know BSN and MSN qualified RNs that should retire as well. If I base your nursing skills on what I'm reading I would guess that as a nurse, you would be self righteous, overly impressed with yourself, a poor team ...
  13. Job market prefers BSN , turns away ADN

    As an MSN entry nurse, you will have two years of study? Probably less clinical experience because of your management courses? I worry about your ability to critically think and provide clinically appropriate client care. I find with any degree plan...
  14. I was violated by a doctor

    I think the title of your thread is inaccurate and phrased to create the presumption of a human rights issue where there is none. Its inciteful. You were offended by a doctor not violated. Did he hold you down on a table and swab your throat? Was...
  15. Remember your anatomy and physiology, nursing classes all build on that. Think critically, if a patient is suffering from a respiratory disorder what nursing inventions and issues should you know ? Then what differs from this for the various conditi...
  16. I was offered a Baptist Work Loan and I wound up declining after I got an HRSA scholarship instead. I qualified just on the basis of volunteering with Baptist. It is three years to fulfill their commitment and you had to accept any job they offered...
  17. Anyone Applied to Baptist's Evening Program in San Antonio?

    They will also give you an ATI book, note that material can and will be taken from that for testing.
  18. Anyone Applied to Baptist's Evening Program in San Antonio?

    Hi Becky! I attend the evening program as well. The twelve hour saturday clinicals are fine. However be prepared to do clinical preparation on Fridays so you will not actually have friday off. The book list is a little inflated. I would buy the ...
  19. Nurse Salary vs. Teacher Salary?

    Two free periods are often take up with meetings, lesson plans, grading and trainings. Lunch is thirty minutes and that is from when you start walking your kids to the cafeteria until you pick them up approx 24 minutes later.
  20. Nurse Salary vs. Teacher Salary?

    Not in Texas, we pay 1/3 of my husbands salary for benefits that are abyssmal. There is no control over class sizes besides what the state mandate. Parents remain a major issue in teaching and often do try and control classroom dynamics as they can...
  21. This Doesn't Seem Right--Is It Just Me?

    not wrong, the patients have a right not to participate in the services, there is no forced participation. besides that they're mentally ill and severely ill and its only one weekend a month, honestly how much of the message do you think is stickin...
  22. Hrsa 08-09 Nursing Scholarship

    nope not yet. I do see its out in Lyceum as of this past Friday. I think it'll be there Thursday or Friday. Hopefully sooner.
  23. SHe misspelled moron, mispelled prefer, miscapitialized union and has odd punctuation usage. Since she's a teacher one would assume competence with these things. I love when people complain about the competence of others when clearly disproving the...
  24. 3 dui's in mi

    Me, I've never driven after I've had a drink neither has my husband. Its not a mistake its a dangerous pattern of behavior and disregard for the law. Why shouldn't we judge, thats kind of why they make laws about this?
  25. I don't think there is a point, but I'm enjoying reading it and don't want the insanity to end. :chuckle
