  1. I think some nursing students might be thrilled to have more experience before taking on NCLEX and the real world. Don't get me wrong - I'm sorry that you're in the position that you're in. But it...
  2. Does he have schizophrenia?

    I don't think you're taking in what you're being told. Either that or you're choosing not to. You've asked for advice and you are receiving it: There are so many red flags here that you should likely...
  3. Nursing Program * MRSA

    I'm puzzled by your short statement: "I have MRSA." It is possible to be treated to the point where you no longer test positive for MRSA. Are you undergoing treatment? If so, it is entirely...
  4. Medication Error - 53 is this for me

    Please come back & update us after you meet with the
  5. Question About Allied Health Classes

    First of all, if you plan to work in the medical field, you must give up the use of the word "retarded." It is unprofessional and socially unacceptable. There are Certified Medical Assistant programs...
  6. Would you quit over white uniforms?

    Are nursing jobs plentiful in your area? Employers would have to be lined up outside my door, asking to hire me, before I'd quit over what I wear to
  7. GOD in NURSE is the Difference!

    OP is just babbling away, to him-herself. Have at it,
  8. Regarding chronic tardiness

    "Like" wasn't enough for me. I must applaud this process. And, I hate to mention, this flies in the face of those who argue that this is an inability-to-conform personality disorder that must be...
  9. "This might be a dumb question but I just need some clarity. I am asked to choose between which license should I apply for: a licensed practical nurse or a registered nurse, or should I choose the...
  10. A Terminal Case of Being a Nurse

    Are you asking us to pay for your journalism
  11. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Do you really have the right to question anyone else's reasons or motivations in their choice of career? Who granted you the moral authority to do so? I'm shocked that someone with "the heart of a...
  12. Displaying credentials

    Agreeable disagreement does not equal lateral violence. Some folks just should not post, in general. Viewing an opposing viewpoint or a lively discussion as threatening is a sign that you likely...
  13. GOD in NURSE is the Difference!

    That struck me as
  14. Online lpn to rn, bsn

    You will likely find more answers in the Student Nurse forum. I don't have "legitimate facts" but I'm guessing that your answers will be found
  15. GOD in NURSE is the Difference!

    Apparently, all that's needed is
  16. GOD in NURSE is the Difference!

    My view is that I work purely with the physical body. While a patient's mental health is very important to the healing process (and I use my resources to optimize a patient's mental health), I am not...
  17. Working in a Teaching Hospital?

    Teaching hospital: You will never be able to take time off in the month of July because that's when the new crop of interns shows up and is most likely to kill someone. All experienced hands stay on...
  18. Please help me with my homework

    Congratulations on your 100% and your instructor invitation. But I bet you studied for the exam (if you needed to) or brushed up on any vague areas. I bet you weren't too tired of that old book to...
  19. Please help me with my homework

    SERIOUSLY?? Post a new or semi-nurse nurse saying this: "Honestly I just get so tired of re-reading the same book,(or new up-dated version), same pictures, every two years....I just can't re-read it...
  20. Please help me with my homework

    But the book was in front of her and she's choosing not to look at it. Reminds me of another current thread talking about older nurses who continue to work but are unable or unwilling to keep
  21. Regarding chronic tardiness

    Have you considered that these folks do not think like you. There are many people who are not ruled by the clock. They are ruled more by the environment. It is not that making it somewhere on time is...
  22. Please help me with my homework

    Actually, I think she's serious. Which is a little
  23. Regarding chronic tardiness

    But how can it be beyond their control??! This is one of my pet peeves also. How can folks who are so accomplished in other areas of their lives be so out of control in this one area? I have several...
  24. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Amen! And don't forget that there is still a segment of the generation out there that was taught that all you have to do to retire is trust in (first) your company's retirement plan, and (then) your...
  25. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Just imagine that all of your hard-won, socked-away $$ dwindling to sometimes less than half their value, as so many of us experienced in the latest recession. You too might end up fighting to stay...
