    What can I do besides nursing?

    You are obviously a smart woman. You passed the nursing classes. You passed the NCLEX. Have you considered hiring a tutor? Assuming, based on this email, that you failed BIO101 twice now, are you...

    What can I do besides nursing?

    According to the media she was a nurse for seven years. But only found out in 2015 that she wasnt going to get her license

    What can I do besides nursing?

    I am assuming this is someone faking or a troll. If its not, then its been two years, according to news reports. Why didnt you just retake the failed class and move

    Two mistakes in 2 weeks

    I think it's ridiculous that sitting the ativan on top of the fridge is a "grievous" error, because other nurses or staff can't stop themselves from stealing drugs to sell or shoot up with. But this...
  6. This ^ Basically health care is like economics. For years economists would create models based on people making the most rational decisions in any given situation that would most benefit them. Their...

    Nervous about saying No.

    Not answering an offer is impolite. There are students on the waiting list who deserve to be notified as soon as possible, if someone is going to accept their

    THREE year traditional BSN Programs

    This isn't true though, at all. If you already have a bachelor's even if you join a traditional program it's just 5 semesters. Two and a half years. You aren't in the program for four years. If you do...

    THREE year traditional BSN Programs

    Are you always so caustic and antagonistic to people trying to help you? Yes a full traditional bachelor's degree is four years. However the nursing "program", which is what you asked about, is not...

    Applying to PA and RN @ Same Institution

    THREE year traditional BSN Programs

    Im confused by what you mean by a "three year" program. Most Regular Prelicensure Cohorts are 5 semesters, which would equate to approximately 3 years. Fall/Spring, Fall/Spring,

    No Rehire

    I just want to point out that Nov 2016 - June 2018 does not equal 3 years. It equals 1 year 7

    Eating the patients' food?

    ^ This. No way I'd eat something left over or from a pt's room.
  17. No actually I'm not discounting psychosocial issues. As I earlier acknowledged over eating is a devastating addiction similar to that of opioid or alcoholism. And in some ways perhaps even harder....
  18. Yes I have. Nursing and health care are based on evidence based practices, not anectdotal evidence or pseudo science. Obesity and weight loss are hard, but the science behind how to loose weight is...

    Los Gatos ER Physician in the News

    Your original post simply questioned shortness of breath and pain as being symptoms of an anxiety attack, as if you had never heard of that before. I dont read minds. If you were in fact aware of...

    What is an RN, BAAN?

    True I missed the whole BAAS versus BAAN thing when we went off track in the discussion on the BAAS. As for being a degree in other countries...I dont think anyone has found a link to such a thing yet...
