  2. Foreign Objects in Body Cavities

    I met an ER nurse from Kansas City and one night while she was on duty a woman came in with a German Shepard...let me clarify, she was on the German Shepard. Don't people go to jail for things like...
  3. Do nursing students practice on each other?

    It really depends on what school you go to. At my school we don't do anything but bandage each other with ace wraps. I know of a few schools that still let their students give saline SC shots to...
  4. I wish I'd have known....B4 nursing school

    Watersnake, well
  5. interested in holistic nursing!

    I'm not aware of any state that has guidlines for becoming a "Holistic Nurse". "Holistic Nurse Certification" usually is a title given by a school with a holistic cont. ed. program. However, the...
  6. Question about nursing shoes

    I've worn Birkis and Dansko for a while and they are both very good, but my favorites are the KLOGS brand of clogs. They're a lot cheaper too...about $48.00 and they are very
  7. Should nurses go back to wearing all white?

    No. I would rather not look like a
  8. Ditto...except that I did miss a lot of Nursing 101 classes because it was just reviewing our reading. I hate to say it, but Nursing 101 was an easy "B" for me. On the flip side, I had Med/Surg...
  9. What is your grading scale in nursing school?

    Our grading scale is 93-100 = A 90-92.9 = A- 88-89.9 = B+ 85-87.9 = B 83-84.9 = B- 80-82.9 = C+ 75-79.9 =
  10. Reiki Therapy?

    I've been a Reiki II practioner for three years. I won't lie and say that it's helped 100% of the time, but it's helped most of the time. I would certainly explore different practioners and find...
  11. Too Many Nurses?

    Hellllllo Nurse, Do you live in the U.S.? If so, what part? I ask because I'll be graduating in less than a year and I plan on moving out of the Northeast and I certainly don't want to move to...
  12. massage

    ktwlpn, As a Certified Massage Therapist, I was beyond thrilled to read your post. Yes, massage is great for many LTC residents. It's really too bad that most LTC facilities don't hire a massage...
  13. You're all gonna hate me...I'll graduate in May 2005 and I started in January 2003...so that's just 2 and a half years. I was on my schools waiting list for only 2 months. I guess I just got
  14. This is EXACTLY what I predicted would happen!!! :chuckle I even said to my clinical group 2 months ago, "watch, this year California will have nurses coming out of the woodwork because of the new...
  15. Hangups in Nursing

    Don't feel bad Kim! Everyone in my clinic group makes fun of me 'cause of my reaction to the smell of feces, vomit and urine. Let me tell you...I have ABSOLUTELY NO problem with the thought of...
  16. A great school for massage therapy...

    Hi Steph, I thought I'd join you in saying that "Finger Lakes" is a really good school. A friend of mine from the Zen Shiatsu program at The Desert Institute of Healing Arts in Tucson (which also...
  17. Hi adinome. I think you can still do massage (if you can't get a NH massage license, which requires 750 hrs of education) if you just don't call yourself a "Massage Therapist". That's a title...
