    Bug Out replied to Ms.RN's topic in General Nursing

    Give her the MDs phone number and tell her to call the number everytime she has

  2. how good is nclex 3000 website

    Bug Out replied to princess007's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I absolutely loved it, well actually I had the CD but I thought it was a very accurate NCLEX simulation...although I studied it over a period of a couple of years...not 4 days. If you have not...

  3. Nursing ethics question

    Bug Out replied to jenrangel5's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think all RN-BSN programs have it but I believe the vast majority do include it. As to your second question, no. There are many many ethical questions that are not simple yes or no answers...

  4. Nurse with very strange behavior.

    Bug Out replied to Born2BWild's topic in General Nursing

    No, no, your not getting away that easily. I will agree to discuss this with you further until we understand each other's viewpoints lol. The question was is what she was observing a sign or symptom...

  5. Nurse with very strange behavior.

    Bug Out replied to Born2BWild's topic in General Nursing

    I will agree that this thread has diverted, or more likely expanded, from the original intention but my contention is the outright attack on the OP due to the fact she observed a bizarre situation and...

  6. What's your favorite thing about being a nurse? (advice)

    Bug Out replied to kk83's topic in General Nursing

    So your question is really "What is so great about being a RN vs a LPN?" Job security in a uncertain future. I have the authority to make real and decisive changes to my patients care that...

  7. Nurse with very strange behavior.

    Bug Out replied to Born2BWild's topic in General Nursing

    Soliciting advice from one's peers concering a questionable scenario that has ethical dimmensions is valid. Just the fact that there are Nurses here debating whether this scenario is valid or not...

  8. Nurse with very strange behavior.

    Bug Out replied to Born2BWild's topic in General Nursing

    We are not legally allowed to "mind our own darned business." Another Nurses business is our business. We all have the duty to secure and protect the professional image of Nursing along with the...

  9. Nurse with very strange behavior.

    Bug Out replied to Born2BWild's topic in General Nursing

    As Professional Nurses we all have the duty to assess and report any and all coworkers suspicious activities. Is it mean to "judge" and "speculate" when we see a coworker who we "speculate" or "judge"...

  10. Apollo College RN Program

    Bug Out replied to crangel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The AZBON uses the same statistical analysis for every RN program in the state, no matter how you attempt to twist the facts, the BON is the final word. All the programs are judged the same. According...

  11. Apollo College RN Program

    Bug Out replied to crangel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Funny...me too. However I know about Chamberlain because I literally was speaking to the Chamberlain recruiter this past week for their March 2010 RN to BSN program... Maybe he just likes me more than...

  12. Apollo College RN Program

    Bug Out replied to crangel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I don't know about that, it is all about priorities. There are three general aspects to everyones life; personal, work, and school. Nursing school only allows the use of two of those things, everyone...

  13. Apollo College RN Program

    Bug Out replied to crangel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Devry now owns Apollo...the ASN wing of the RN program, Devry also owns Chamberlain...the BSN/MSN wing of the RN program. Chamberlain will grant Apollo graduates 80 articulation transfer credits to...

  14. patients on reality TV

    Bug Out replied to fiveofpeep's topic in General Nursing

    eh...its educational is it not? Hell, I bet you yourself are making a pretty penny off of the sick, vulnerable and dying aren't you? Me too...its a type of exploitation. I know everyone will say...

  15. ? Fine for chewing gum?

    Bug Out replied to jmtndl's topic in General Nursing

    I am 99% sure that is pure myth for a couple of reasons. #1 The $500 fine is suspiciously similar to the $500 fine in Singapore for chewing gum. #2 I have never heard of nor can find an example...

  16. Apollo College RN Program

    Bug Out replied to crangel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes. CNA work will also help you through

  17. Why do nurses sign this way?

    Bug Out replied to missdeevah's topic in General Nursing

    I am one of those ***holes that signs their name like ~ ` Part laziness, part plausible deniability, part thats just how I sign my name

  18. Nursing License AND CNA certificate

    Bug Out replied to pat8585's topic in General Nursing

    No, but why woud you? Its bad Ju-Ju to work under your highest achieved license...bad

  19. Clinical hours for CNA

    Bug Out replied to Mr. Evans's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Most jobs do not recognize clinicals hours as professional hours since you were not licensed/certified at the time. Look into Nursing homes and sub acute facilities. Make sure to include Nursing...

  20. Apollo College RN Program

    Bug Out replied to crangel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    To speak a little on pre reqs. I would strongly advise looking into the pre reqs you have to take at Apollo and then take them at a Community College. The only pre reqs that tend to have a waiting...

  21. Apollo College RN Program

    Bug Out replied to crangel's topic in Arizona Nursing

    :thankya: Well you either start waiting for a job now or start waiting later, either way your working a year to two years sooner than you would waiting for a Community College. I know there are a ton...

  22. It's A Struggle

    Bug Out replied to JoeyGirlRNNYC's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I hate that I'm new and that I'm trying to fit in at my workplace. Most people are very nice. What I can't stand is that gossiping that occurs. And it's usually from the nurse techs. I sometimes feel...

  23. Anyone ever heard of a policy like this??

    Bug Out replied to martin738's topic in General Nursing

    Actually sounds like a good idea to me. I am sick and tired of having to cover for people who call out on weekends. Its funny how 90% of the call offs only seem to happen

  24. BIG QUESTIONS for ALL NURSES

    Bug Out replied to AB normalRN's topic in General Nursing

    Look up all the LTC/SNF/Rehab facilities in your area by checking into the Medicare website. Its what my wife and I did, once we did that we quickly found jobs. Many smaller LTC/SNF/Rehab facilities...

  25. MRSA in sputum and open door?

    Bug Out replied to NurseyTonyaLPN's topic in Agency Nurses

    Contact...droplet...either way the door does not need to be closed. To the OP on the MDs order to place the pt on "Airborne Precautions" it is most likely because the Nurse who called him asked for...
