I knew I'd get really good advice from those on here I have decided to pursue the LVN school so I shall be back for moral and studying support Thank you again
As much as I'd love to just continue onto RN school, right now I don't have the time. Well, not really the "time", but I have a year to figure out what I want to do *for now* before I just absolutely...

Not as "interesting" as some of the ones I've read, but my sister in law, her parents couldn't decide on a name in time so her birth certificate reads "Infant" as her first
I apologize if this is a stupid question, but I really just had to ask Can a CNA be considered a nurse? I mean, I have always been led to believe that CNA stood for certified nursing assistant. An...

I asked, "Is a CNA a nurse?" I did not ask, "Do you think CNAs should be considered nurses?" lizz.. Could they be asking you to do all these LVN/LPN/RN duties because they know you are going thru to...

Kashlee.. If you don't mind :) What dept do you work in? What kind of nurse are you? You said you had 7 in each ear? Meaning you have 14 total in your ears or did I read that wrong and that meant 7...

Again, I really meant no harm in asking the original question. I don't mean to be rude, but just because a few people say or do something doesn't mean it is right. Been that and done that too many...
Thank you DusktilDawn, I got a chuckle out of #9 I always believe, regardless of the situation, that those few that make it worthwhile outnumber those who make you question

Again, I really meant no offense :) When I was testing out the waters per se in LVN school and we had our clinicals at the nursing home, we (the lvn students) were first assigned to a CNA to start...

I've been taught (so far, since I really don't know much yet to begin with) that none of that would be in a CNA's "scope of practice." Could be my state
Soon2BNurse replied to Soon2BNurse's topic in General Nursing
I forgot to mention that I meant no offence :) I've seen how hard CNA's do/can work and know that everyone has their roles in the medical field. Silly, I know. It just bugs me that they are saying...
Soon2BNurse replied to chicagrl72's topic in General Nursing
I've wondered that myself, actually. Of course this is all IMO. When I was seeking out my options on whether I should go via the LPN/LVN route or the RN route and trying to find schools, there really...

I agree EarthAngel, but then I remember back when it was only ok for 1 ear piercing in each ear :chuckle Ok, we've established that basically piercings are a no-no, but what if you wear something in...
Soon2BNurse replied to gentlemother's topic in General Nursing
I was wondering the same thing EarthAngel, but I am not in the place to question anything yet. I mean, I would think it would be the same as if you had an open wound. The nurse with the piercing...

A very good question, one I think many people would want to know the answer to. My best friend wants to become a nurse and is taking pre-nursing school classes and with this all in mind got a tattoo...
I don't know if they released the biopsy results. I know there was supposed to be a court order for her family to know where her ashes are, but Michael Schiavo hasn't informed them where yet (last I...

I know there will be better replies than mine, but I just had to chime in. I am currently changing the way I am getting into nursing school by going to a community college instead. I have learned...

The sad part about the prices is, I live in a pretty big city where there was about 3 lvn programs I could go through without having to drive more than a half hour. 2 of the 3 had waiting lists of up...
