  1. Who HATES the term MURSE?

    Mike A. Fungin RN replied to LuxCalidaNP's topic in Men in Nursing

    I haven't got a problem with it, because I've never personally heard it used in a negative

  2. Need advice,Problem CNA

    Mike A. Fungin RN replied to stillwant2banurse's topic in General Nursing

    stillwant2banurse, it would help to know what state you're located in. The laws vary by location, but here in California "nurse" is by itself a protected title. Only registered and licensed...

  3. Nursing School Prospective Med School.

    Mike A. Fungin RN replied to neensmarie's topic in General Nursing

    I think you would be wise to make a decision, either nursing or medicine, because you're talking about two different disciplines. Sure, there are nurses who become physicians, but it's not common,...

  4. What do you think of this suggestion?

    Mike A. Fungin RN replied to rn/writer's topic in Men in Nursing

  7. Got an interview. What questions should I expect to ask and be asked?

    Mike A. Fungin RN replied to jo716's topic in First Year After Licensure

  8. What do you think of this suggestion?

    Mike A. Fungin RN replied to rn/writer's topic in Men in Nursing

    I'd be in favor of a forum name-change, but I wouldn't lose any sleep over it staying the same either. I've been really involved this past year networking with men in nursing around California and...

  9. EMS abuse: The Ride to get High

    Mike A. Fungin RN replied to Roy Fokker's topic in Emergency

    If I may offer my opinion, I worked on the ambulance for several years and I have a slightly different take on this. I'm not familiar with Lawrence county, but the statistics (trying to find the...
