1. Has Anyone Else Heard This Rumor?

   MaggieJo replied to Jen2's topic in General Students

   With the way the nursing laws are now in the U.S.A., it wouldn't be possible for this to be true. Each state makes its own rules and regulations regarding nursing, therefore I do not see how there could, or for that matter, would, be a federal law r...

2. I officially passed! 75% of a nurse!

   MaggieJo replied to HappyNurse2005's topic in General Students

   I like that! I just finished up my 3rd semester also. I'll have to tell my family that. I am so ready for May. If it were up to me, we would just keep going and take a week off for Christmas, and graduate a month earlier. I am ready to be 100%...

5. Your favorite clinical area? Are you surprised?

   MaggieJo replied to helpinghands's topic in General Students

   L&D is the reason I went to nursing school. I work as a tech in L&D, so I knew ahead of time that this is where I want to be. Eventually, I want to get my master's degree as a nurse midwife. But, I WILL practice in a hospital. I've seen "...

6. Skyline Medical Center in Nashville?

   MaggieJo replied to Town & Country's topic in Tennessee

   Just wanted to say that I really love Skyline Medical Center. I've done clinicals in their CCU. Personally, I think that the nurses and the care (at least in the CCU) is incredible. I guess it all depends on the unit, but I would certainly reccomm...

13. Does anyone ENJOY nursing school?

    MaggieJo replied to JoniL&DRN's topic in General Students

    I love nursing school, but LIFE is very tough right now. I'm a single mom, so I've got all of these other worries on top of nursing school. Ya know, they made nursing school to be your single focus. In fact, we had advisors tell us that if we had ...

14. I have a question concerning a question?!?!

    MaggieJo replied to HyperRNRachel's topic in General Students

    Hahahaha :rotfl: Wish that I could help you, but I can't. Sometimes I have trouble answering those multiple choice, multiple correct answer questions. I just wanted to say, that is such a "nursing question". And the instructors wonder why we have...
