I am having trouble studying the cadavers and the photos of them for my anatomy class. I keep feeling very nauseated and imagining the prosection/skinning. It is making it hard for me to study what I need to in the picture. The pictures that look mo...

This post is in reply to the article posted by azhiker96 and not exactly her post itself: I think the problem is that too many people see other religions' views as "out there" and dissasociate themselves with these people in an us v. them mentality. ...

Thank you for your feedback. It was not my intention to go off topic. My point was that there seemed to be a tone of non-understanding and non-compassion of the JW belief. I thought if I used an example that would most likely fit most of the poste...

I am thankful to live in a place where we do have the right to refuse. With that being said, prior arrangements must be made. I think of the example of female circumcision done in some cultures. I understand that in those cultures, the procedure i...

if graduate loans will go through - here's a thought: look for an msn program that accepts non-nursing ba students. i know ohio state has one, so maybe your local university does too. once you get into the program, you earn your rn and then complet...

You bring up a good point - with the cadavers, we don't get to do the dissection. I think there is a real learning opportunity in doing that yourself. We just see the results after someone else has done it. Honestly, I am not sure if I had the sca...

My husband used to get up at 4am to do his homework before work officially started and then went to school in the evenings. We barely saw him. I was home all day and night with two babies, but you're right - it's hard on "Daddy" too! He doesn't ta...

Exactly, it's the preservative. The visual isn't exactly helpful when trying not to upchuck the bagel you crammed down during your 10 minute break either. We got a new recruit last week - it's more of a baked chicken appearance as opposed to the o...

I work full time at a desk job and go to school (nursing pre-req's) evenings and weekends for now. When my kids were really little, I couldn't afford to work because daycare was so expensive. I stayed home while my husband worked full time and went ...

I am in the same situation. I have re-prioritized my time. I spend much less time cleaning my house and with friends that aren't as important. I dont' always answer the phone or call a friend back that wants to aimlessly chat for an hour. I study...

You could research hospitals that offer tuition reimbursement and try to find a position in the hospital - even in non-clinical - that would pay your tuition. Our area is hit pretty hard with the recession, so most non-clinical jobs are on a hiring ...

How did your "rat" class go? Maybe I am not familiar enough with rats, but I would think they would be awfully small to learn from - especially in the hands and feet. That's hard enough on a human. Are you going to name yours? I think I would nam...

Me too! We had a "snow day" on Weds. I should have spent the day studying, but spent most of it watching NCIS re-runs on my DVR. I love those days when you never change out of your pajamas!

Please update us on how it goes! I have my lab again tomorrow - and a lab practical exam. I will come prepared with vick's and a new appreciation for having cadavers and hopefully a full knowledge of back and lower limb muscles, blood vessels and ...

Thank you guys for making me laugh this week! It has definitely changed my perspective. I will go in thinking of cats, pigs and rats (oh my!) instead of my nauseated tummy! The elusive promises of an anatomy professor...it's drama to make you exc...

What do you think of the program? I am starting in the fall (hopefully!). I am researching the COTC LPN to RN conversion in Newark. I am not sure if that qualifies as "close-ish" but it looks like a quick transition program.

Ours range from 3 to 4 years deceased. Maybe that's why they are so "icky"? So, if I try to stand really close to one of the guys, that will help with the smell? Or maybe that would send the wrong message? :heartbeat

Thanks for your advice! Our school teaches a full quarter of anatomy and then does a full quarter of physiology. Maybe because of that division, they can do the cadavers? I don't know? I have heard on the grapevine that they are leftovers from the ...

Thank you nightmare!

Is there a way to PM on this site? I may have a referral for you.

Do you work directly with your carrier or through a broker? If the former, I would suggest attaining a broker that specializes in medical liabilities and E&O coverage. Depending on where you live, I can make a reccomendation.

Just like the other posters - no, you aren't. But, they give you scrap paper. I had it mostly filled up! I have always used a calculator or excel for the type of math on the NET, so I really had to review how to do it by hand. I don't know what I...

I agree with the previous poster. If you worked for the same company and in the same role, there is no need to indicate change in full time status on a resume. Keep in mind that your resume is a marketing tool - your sales flier. It should include ...

I am taking BIO 261 and PSY 240 too! I am doing the 261 online and lab sat am and the psy class weds night. She had so many wonderful students who were so good to her and sweet to me. It would be nice to reconnect and say thank you.

The situation is a classic case of sexual discrimination. It is illegal to base an employment decision on the basis of a woman's sexual attractiveness. However, the "bubbly" part, gives the employer some credibility back as the ability to behave pro...
