  8. Anyone attending Galen school of nursing, St petersburg/Tampa????

    studentinnursing replied to flower2007's topic in Florida Nursing

    studentinnursing replied to nalaa83's topic in General Students

    Pessimistic? I support two children and was still going to volunteer to get experience and get "in"; my critical mission is to help people whether I get paid for it or not. First, I applied for a job...

  13. Older Nursing students

    studentinnursing replied to MarieD's topic in General Students

  14. Older Nursing students

    studentinnursing replied to MarieD's topic in General Students

    First, in my opinion, who cares. I dreaded walking in a little, but as one girl put it; she's 25, "we are all in tgis together." The first student who said, "Hi, I'm soandso...." was 19. Don't...

    studentinnursing replied to Mt8386's topic in General Nursing

  20. Can student administer medication without RN supervision?

    studentinnursing replied to AnneN's topic in General Students

    And I must say, when I am an RN, I would never let a student pass meds without my watching, pulling,passing, etc. Completely hipocritical, but I just wouldn't be comfortable with that. On the other...

    In our state/program, as NS we pass meds under our instructors license. The RN gives us the MAR the day we pass meds; all students do not pass meds every day, 3-4 of 12 pass meds each day. If the RN...

  24. Chance of ADN to get a Hospital Job?

    studentinnursing replied to nalaa83's topic in General Students

    At this time, with the economy the way it is, it would make perfect sense for a hospital to hire all the BSNs they can, as all (BSN or ADN) RNs are looking for work; why hire an ADN grad when you can...

  25. Can student administer medication without RN supervision?

    studentinnursing replied to AnneN's topic in General Students

    Yes, this sounds like my school. We have dosage calculations on EVERY test, whether Pharmacology or Theory or Clinical; and that's after we were tested over and over in class as well. We also have a...
