    DoGoodThenGo replied to stephdRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Good for you! Told ya to pay that first interviewer no mind! Now go out there and run circles/show em what you can

  2. Diploma nurses are worthless?!

    DoGoodThenGo replied to stephdRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    To OP; girl don't even give that woman another sustained thought. It was her loss not yours, time to move onwards and upwards. Just be aware in some states diploma nurses are about as rare as finding...

  3. Is there really a nursing shortage?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to hoppingpete's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    As Groucho Marx said it is wise to not join just any club that will accept you as a member. Places with open door hiring policies usually have a reason. It is like those horror movies where the new...

  4. Is there really a nursing shortage?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to hoppingpete's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    What kills me is almost without fail each article on the "nursing shortage" goes on about how with the economy improving more nurses will retire/reduce hours because their husband's are now fully...

  5. My letter and appeal got denied

    DoGoodThenGo replied to Nursing pursuit's topic in New York Nursing

    Am not looking to start a battle with you over this, things are what they are. Unless you can document your situation is *exactly* like anyone else's that was reinstated dwelling upon it probably...

  6. My letter and appeal got denied

    DoGoodThenGo replied to Nursing pursuit's topic in New York Nursing

    Voice of tough love here (again). *LOL* First am sorry to hear your appeal for re-entry was denied. However as one warned in your other thread on this matter is was always going to be a heavy lift....

  7. Hunter College New Generic Pathway 2013-2014

    DoGoodThenGo replied to msingh5893's topic in New York Nursing

    When pre-nursing classes are open to *everyone* the school must create enough slots to accommodate. HB like many CUNY nursing programs has had problems with pre-nursing students being "shut out" of...

  8. Updated NYC New Graduate Nursing jobs?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to LuLuBean's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Recent agreement with the federal government that will bring eight billion in Medicaid funds to NY requires the state to reduce inpatient hospital beds by a certain percentage. There is an opinion by...

  9. Nursing prerequisites and working while studying

    DoGoodThenGo replied to anuhere's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Rather difficult to provide any information since you do not say what prerequisite courses are required. Anatomy and Physiology (one and two with labs) are sequential thus you are looking at one year...

  10. Use of chux cloths to replace facewashers

    DoGoodThenGo replied to seriouslylost's topic in General Nursing

    I do declare, you is bad!

  11. Use of chux cloths to replace facewashers

    DoGoodThenGo replied to seriouslylost's topic in General Nursing

    Think *face washer* are our wash cloths. Nice fluffy and thick (hopefully) face cloths used for bathing and or facial

  12. Use of chux cloths to replace facewashers

    DoGoodThenGo replied to seriouslylost's topic in General Nursing

    Well am here to tell you facilities in the United States report all sorts of plumbing problems with those disposables. So make sure everyone understands if the things are flushable or not, cause if...

  13. Use of chux cloths to replace facewashers

    DoGoodThenGo replied to seriouslylost's topic in General Nursing

    In my day there were two ways of getting a draw sheet. One was simply to fold a regular sheet crosswise and tuck the ends under. Then they came up with sheets specifically cut to be used as draw...

  14. RN Hiring @ SUNY Downstate in 2014

    DoGoodThenGo replied to PacoUSA's topic in New York Nursing

    Well a settlement has been reached on all sides regarding SUNY Downstate and LICH, so there is light at the end of that tunnel. Bottom line is by May or sooner Downstate will be rid of LICH so that...

  15. Nurse brutally beaten in a Brooklyn Hospital

    DoGoodThenGo replied to HGTVrn33's topic in Nursing News

    Sadly unless something else happens with the nurse (like her expiration) local news probably won't give much more coverage to this story. Hopefully there will be some sort of update via sources close...

  16. this is why people still think there's a nursing shortage!

    DoGoodThenGo replied to ceccia's topic in General Nursing

    Speak of the devil (Mr. Peter Buerhaus, PhD, RN)...

  17. this is why people still think there's a nursing shortage!

    DoGoodThenGo replied to ceccia's topic in General Nursing

    Nursing textbooks are written enough years in advance and kept in circulation long enough that they cannot possibly give accurate predictions. All they can do is what everyone else has been doing,...

  18. Nurse brutally beaten in a Brooklyn Hospital

    DoGoodThenGo replied to HGTVrn33's topic in Nursing News

    As of this morning's local NYC news reports have heard nothing about the nurse who was attacked having expired. She is in critical condition with facial fractures, other injuries and recovering from...

  19. WHY do I need a BSN?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to AnnMarie52471's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Well long as you is mighty sure that will not change for the duration of your active nursing career, then guess you ain't got nothing to worry

  20. cna with a misdemeanor petty larceny

    DoGoodThenGo replied to semplyregine's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    We cannot by TOS give legal advice here in AllNurses. Mods will move your post soon to the proper area (criminal background). It is wise never to withhold criminal convictions when asked on...

  21. WHY do I need a BSN?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to AnnMarie52471's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Well look yonder, 205 posts in response to the OP's simple query. Most in one way or another are pretty much have been part of the push in favour or against making the BSN mandatory for entry to...

  22. WHY do I need a BSN?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to AnnMarie52471's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    All candidates for college degrees are required to complete various state required course distributions as well as often those imposed by the college/university itself. The latter however you often...

  23. Don't People Have Bills To Pay?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to Ruby Vee's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Was defending Ruby's post in general, but yes you did not come out and call it "mean". Bulk of my post may not have spoken to yours directly, but it still is quite relevant to your position. Reasons...

  24. Don't People Have Bills To Pay?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to Ruby Vee's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Don't think the OP's post was overly "mean" or whatever, just dealing with the real. You can go back to the 1970's, 1980's or whenever and find that nurses ranging from GN to seasoned RNs with years...

  25. WHY do I need a BSN?

    DoGoodThenGo replied to AnnMarie52471's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Persons complain when BSN (bridge, undergrad or whatever) require too much clinical or classroom time because they "have a life" and cannot spend hours on campus..... To address this issue programs...
