    OrthoFNP replied to OrthoFNP's topic in General Students

    My school uses the test as a tool to let our instructors know what they need to focus on I believe. Thing is, I am doing very well in the class. I think it is silly to give us a test that will cover...

    OrthoFNP replied to OrthoFNP's topic in General Students

    TMS1980, How funny! It seems we all have to do some sort of cultural awareness paper or project. I found this to be extremely interesting! I did research on Navajo and Mexican death and birth...

    OrthoFNP replied to BethT's topic in General Students

    Johnemmons, I am sorry that someone told you that nursing is a female job!!! Wow! That is simply not true. There are more female nurses yes, but that is slowly changing. Do not let someone's opinion...

    OrthoFNP replied to greenbeanio's topic in General Students

    OrthoFNP replied to greenbeanio's topic in General Students

    melmarie23, I did not mean cut corners with assessment or with anything dealing with patient's health concerns. I simply meant to try and do things like linen changes and bed baths more quickly by...

  18. I'm old, no money, depressed..

    OrthoFNP replied to MEDICJOHN's topic in General Students

  19. Biology Major-- Im told nursing school is a lot easier?

    OrthoFNP replied to Delta_Notch's topic in General Students

    OrthoFNP replied to greenbeanio's topic in General Students

  22. Which route should I go- ADN or BSN?

    OrthoFNP replied to litchi's topic in General Students
