    Hello...is this thing on???

  3. Nursing careers in Pharmacology?!

    FreudianSlip replied to ErinRN2B's topic in General Students

    Good for you that you've found something you love! Now, about making a practical buck off that... As an ADN...nope. As a BSN...maybe you could get your foot in the door with a Pharm company as a rep...

  4. Failing Nursing School

    FreudianSlip replied to STRUGGLINGRN STUDENT's topic in General Students

    Here is some useful advice: Speak with your MedSurg instructor...have them help you identify why you are having difficulty...and then work with the instructor to develop a plan that you will follow to...

  5. Need advice for mental health job

    FreudianSlip replied to alynnia's topic in Psychiatric

    I'd still stand by my previous statement as far as my own observations...but with that being said, it really depends on the individual; i.e. how significant is the disease process, how well is it...

  6. Becoming an NP with little to no nursing experience??

    FreudianSlip replied to Blurr156's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    "or 2) you SHOULD have RN experience since NP is an advanced practice NURSE." ^^^^This. Nursing school is not nursing practice. You need to work as a RN, see what you really like and what you don't....

  7. Need advice for mental health job

    FreudianSlip replied to alynnia's topic in Psychiatric

    In my opinion, I don't think this will be beneficial to you in the long run. From my own observation, nurses (and other health care workers) who have existing mental health disorders, often see their...

  8. NE's and job security?

    FreudianSlip replied to raindrop's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    How does the saying go..."It's a great job if you can find it"? I've only been an educator for a couple of years now, but in my opinion it's been very rewarding (personally not financially). It...

  9. How To Survive (and Thrive) In Nursing School

    FreudianSlip replied to 86toronado's topic in General Students

    Well written and insightful. In my opinion, the things that I see students struggle the most with is not preparing their life to accomodate their education. Nursing school is an all consuming...

  10. Please help me!! New in nursing

    FreudianSlip replied to dkim4429's topic in Men in Nursing

    ^^^^This. Even if there are direct entry programs...nursing is about patient care and specialty practice in a given area. How or why would you choose to skip that process? No judgement, just without...

  11. are you in the area of Sales/Pharmaceuticals? tell m about it.

    FreudianSlip replied to hansmanalo's topic in Men in Nursing

    This may sound silly, but you know that this is not an entry level nursing position, right? You generally have to have a wealth of experience in some area of nursing practice already that the...

  12. Please help me find a non-bedside career

    FreudianSlip replied to MomRN0913's topic in General Nursing

    As someone else already stated, home health is a relatively easy (and low paying) option. Same thing with hospice care, if you can work end of life care. With only your ADN, you are definitely in a...

  13. RN to Mental Health NP...How?

    FreudianSlip replied to SunnyPupRN's topic in General Nursing

    There are many programs out there that offer ADN or BSN to MSN with options of which NP track you want to focus on (such as Psych). Some will require you to do additional hours for your chosen track....

  14. Man Considering Career Change To Nursing - Questions

    FreudianSlip replied to MaciakRA's topic in Men in Nursing

    I agree...there are other jobs with similar pay and job security that you might want to look into first. In addition to the above, check out medical technologist (2 yr, 4 yr programs). If you are...

  15. will military and surg/tech experience help with the job hunt

    FreudianSlip replied to RNman09's topic in Men in Nursing

    If I were reviewing your resuming and saw that you had previous medical experience, it would make me more inclined to schedule an interview. So, yes...anything that adds clinical/medical background...
