  4. struggling-prospective nursing student

    "At that point I knew medical school was out the window so I decided to look into nursing school..." Not really the best reason to go to nursing school. Nursing school is hard for most folks and...
  5. Recently terminated

    I really did not mean to offend anyone. OP referenced "the RN" and somehow that led me to believe that he/she was not an RN. That left 2 possibilities for med-giving - LPN or QMA. ALL OF WHOM who...
  6. Can I lose my license???

  7. It's a crime to take pictures of your patients

    All of those dementia patients had their caregivers with them, all of whom no doubt gave consent. I thought it was a very inspiring piece. Not sure what you're calling "false flattery." How does...

    Someone else speculated that the RN who endorsed the practice might have neglected to mention that he/she also stayed in the room to observe the patient take the
  9. Easy Stats class

    My guess is that any statistics class that qualifies for your degree is going to be as hard as any other statistics class. "Easy statistics" is an
  10. Recently terminated

    OP, are you a QMA or LPN? I am honestly surprised that your training did not include this very basic safety precaution. Since you have been doing it for 2 years and no one has corrected your...
  11. And we, as a whole, no doubt appreciate your service. But as I noted in a previous post, other branches of the healthcare delivery system could very easily request/demand recognition as a whole person...
  12. 1. To reiterate: there is NO shortage of nurses. 2. I'd be surprised if you have found any VBSN degrees. I've never heard of that degree. 3. If a special degree is created for veterans, why not...

  18. MDS salary options!

    I think that only you can weigh the pros and cons to make your decision. Is the extra money worth the unfair treatment? How do you know that the other facility doesn't have management issues either?...
  19. nursing eating young

    No, truly you don't. Every nurse should be willing to put all the chatter behind him/her and be open to their own personal experience. That's the only way to grow and to be open to new
  20. This plan would never work at any facility at which I've worked. OP, you have a choice to make. Trip or job? If you can afford to live without income, I think I'd go for the once in a lifetime...
