  2. Code Blue

    whichone'spink replied to newnurseia's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Where can I find specific classes geared towards those that are/want to work in the ED or critical care? If people are saying that ACLS is watered down, then I'd rather have something

  3. Is every nursing program the same way?

    whichone'spink replied to daystarmike's topic in General Students

    Yowsa. In my school, students that can't hack it in the sophomore year leave in the first semester or second semester. Med-surg is another weed out class, but not many people failed that class. My...

  4. Can't stand Community Health

    whichone'spink replied to cogath's topic in General Students

    I hope this BS class does not interfere with a very important practicum, a practicum that may get me a job in an area I want. Community health is definitely an area I don't want to go into if I can...

    I think it's funny in a dark sort of way. Not to take away from the seriousness of it all, but a massive comedy of errors is

  6. Was your nursing program in a dangerous area?

    whichone'spink replied to CNA1991's topic in General Students

  7. nurses dating nurses?

    whichone'spink replied to rnski's topic in Nursing Humor

    For me, I want to date someone of similar background and the same faith beliefs. The faith aspect matters more; my parents were of different religions and well, that marriage didn't work out. It...

  10. What have clinicals/nursing school taught you about yourself?

    whichone'spink replied to loveoutloud's topic in General Students

    I have learnt how to be an actress, and to just keep running. I've also learnt to be proactive and assertive, because lord knows no one will pay attention to you as a student unless you take the...

  11. New grad: ER or Med-surg?

    whichone'spink replied to Studentnurse418's topic in Emergency

    I don't understand why people say to do a year of med-surg first. If the ED offers a good sized orientation, the new graduate can learn how to prioritize patient care in the emergency setting that...

    whichone'spink replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    whichone'spink replied to NickiLaughs's topic in General Nursing

    So very sorry your unit ended up with an idiot. If I had applied for a position, been rejected, and found out a fool was chosen over me, I would

    whichone'spink replied to defyinggravity2009's topic in General Nursing

    Unions are needed to keep nursing a middle class

  18. Arrested while Occupying Wall Street - Will I Be Hireable?

    whichone'spink replied to LookingAhead's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    The bankers are only half the mess we are in. There should however, be more ire directed at the Federal Reserve and the Treasury. The Occupy movement has the right intentions, but they're still...

  19. Arrested while Occupying Wall Street - Will I Be Hireable?

    whichone'spink replied to LookingAhead's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    In this day and age where employers can search Facebook and Google to check out a potential applicant, it's very much a valid concern. And in this day and age with increased surveillance powers given...

  20. Arrested while Occupying Wall Street - Will I Be Hireable?

    whichone'spink replied to LookingAhead's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Wear sunglasses to conceal your face, wear a trench coat, a hat, just anything to keep you from being identified. If you spot trouble, get out of dodge. Don't give out your real name, give out a...

  21. "Alphabet Soup" After Nurses' Name?

    whichone'spink replied to Arianna727's topic in General Nursing

  23. Question About "Senioritis"

    whichone'spink replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    Fear keeps me going. I've already failed an exam in one class. Granted it's an elective, but it's still a failing grade in a nursing class. Don't choke in your last leg of the race, it's so easy to...

  24. "Hidden" cameras on the floor--do you have them??

    whichone'spink replied to linzjane88's topic in General Nursing

    Not really. In one hospital I have done clinicals at, all rooms had cameras, but were only turned on for high-risk patients, such as the confused geriatric patient or the high fall risk. They would...

  25. When did you start precepting/mentoring?

    whichone'spink replied to Miller86's topic in General Nursing

    As a student, I have found that as much as it depends on the nurse, I have had a better time with more experienced nurses. As in more than 2 years experience. I do not wish to have a student with me...
