  1. Pregnancy and working in ED?

    I think I remember reading one of their earlier posts and they had a coworker that had tried to pawn all the contagious patients off on all the other nurses because they were pregnant - basically,...
  2. Rosseta Stone? Anyone ACTUALLY use it?

    Yeah - they don't give you a translation at all. They promote it saying it helps you "learn like children" - when you were born/toddlerhood you learned things almost via osmosis, lol - you picked up...

  7. Double Majoring in Biology/Nursing?

    Actually, there's a Biology Major at the WSUV campus as well (I live in Vancouver). It looks like it's pending at Spokane (I just went and looked it up) so it would be possible... I'd like to go into...
  8. Know of Any ADN Programs With No Wait List?

  10. Know of Any ADN Programs With No Wait List?

    I'm pretty sure you'll still get orientation, etc - I really don't think they'll just shove you off the
  12. NICU nurses

    I'm not a new grad (or even a nurse yet) but I've heard that a lot of NICUs prefer to hire new grads because the neonates have such different vitals, reactions, etc - instead of working on an adult...
  13. as far as i know, though, you need nicu level iii experience to become an
  14. Do you have a side jobs that is not related to nursing?

    Yup, that's what it is. I was considering doing that myself, but it's two years to make a crappy wage. Ah,

  16. I am not an SRNA, or CRNA, but don't they have to take pre-requisites before getting into such programs? Even if your GPA isn't as stellar as you want it to be in the program, maybe that's a chance to...
  17. I've not been in Clark's nursing program, but I've gone to the campus for four years now, and I absolutely love it here. The teachers are very capable, and they tend to go above and beyond everything...
  18. States hiring New RN Grads?

    Be careful with Spokane and Yakima, though - you have three WSU campuses in that area pumping out new-grads twice a year. (WSU Spokane, Tri-Cities, and Yakima all have BSN programs.) Also, down in...

  20. States hiring New RN Grads?

  23. Holy smokes! I almost fainted when I noticed the hospital's name - that's like 10 minutes away from where I live! My sister was born there. I think that's an amazing video, though. Very cute and fun....
  24. Need help from new BSN grad

    To be honest (and I'm not a nurse), I don't think that it is how it works. BSN grads and ADN grads (in many cases, especially floor nursing) do /the exact same job/. Neither of them take more critical...
  25. I just had a question about time and stress management. I know I have seen a lot of people that say that they are fairly essential qualities for a nurse. I just was curious...do you think it is...
