  1. CNA to ADN and CLEP

    roser13 replied to Silver Surfer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This confuses me even more. You continue to refer back to CNA experience, pay rates, etc. Yet that is unconnected to your stated goal: licensed nurse. Which are you actually considering? To be...

  2. CNA to ADN and CLEP

    roser13 replied to Silver Surfer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Going into nursing as a "back-up" is a little unusual. Have you fully researched the field of nursing? The stress of nursing school? The demand, or lack thereof, for nurses in your area? Nursing...

  4. Nurse forced to work as a CNA

    roser13 replied to hillbillienurse's topic in General Nursing

    That you read a scolding into the quoted posts is both sad and appalling, on all sorts of levels. I'm sad for you because life must be hard for you with that degree of suspicion present in your...

  5. Age of transfer credit

    roser13 replied to elefante1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As has been said, much has changed in the last 15-20 years, even in the area of sciences. It is not realistic to expect that any of your previous credits will transfer. Nor should you "hope" that...

    roser13 replied to adpiRN's topic in General Nursing

    Prepare yourself: I saved mine from my first job when subsequent jobs required other colors. When I got them out about 6 years later, any item with elastic was ruined due to the elastic hardening...

    roser13 replied to Nurse131382's topic in General Nursing

    When responding to another post, it is very helpful if you use the Quote button on the bottom right of the post. It is difficult to follow a rebuttal post if we don't know what you're

  11. ICU, Pros Cons, What to expect?

    roser13 replied to kassiahgp's topic in Critical Care

    I will respectfully disagree with your instructors. Nursing education in the US is generalized, rather than specialized. You don't have to choose. And those of us who went thru school planning to...

    roser13 replied to briggers16's topic in General Students

    The only conceivable source for an answer is the school at which you received the clinical failures. School policies are unique to the school. I'm not sure how any of us could answer a question...

  16. Calling in for no sleep

    roser13 replied to Nurse131382's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for your interest in my education, but you missed the point entirely. I did not disagree with Mhays' understanding of FON. I was simply questioning the need for such lectures in multiple...

  20. Is there Hope for me after 21 yrs???

    roser13 replied to Momtotjmatt's topic in General Nursing

    Medical Assistant will not likely support a family of four and is not nursing-related. Obtaining your nursing license will be an uphill battle, given lapsed time and no previous US license. Have you...

  21. Can I ask to work exclusively day shifts?

    roser13 replied to kassiahgp's topic in General Nursing

    Honestly, I think this is the most unhelpful post yet. It is naive and does not take the current realities of the nursing employment situation for a new grad into account. I do my best to give...

    If it was my teenage daughter and it was necessary for her health and safety during her procedure, or even her potential health and safety if the case turned open, then have at

  23. Can I ask to work exclusively day shifts?

    roser13 replied to kassiahgp's topic in General Nursing

    We can't predict the future, but at this point in time, most areas of the US are saturated with new grads who cannot find employment. We hear from folks who have looked for 2, 3 years and have sent...
