  1. Elective C-sections- moms idea or the providers?

    I hope my response does not offend anyone, and this opinion is specifically for elective C-sections- they should be outlawed. Doctors who push them for easy scheduling or insurance/ money purposes should have their licenses taken away, and women who...
  2. Death of a Special Co-Worker

    I am truly sorry for all of your losses... my heart goes out to her son. We mothers know that we would always give our lives for our children, but so few actually do it. I am fighting back my tears.
  3. Need encouragement

    :anpom::anpom::anpom::anpom::anpom::anpom: You can do it! Think of how far you have already come...
  4. threatened at work

    YIKES! That is wrong on so many levels I don't even know where to begin. The unfortunate thing is that I am imagining that many of these incidents could be prevented if the establishment cared enough to spend a bit more money on more staffing/secur...
  5. threatened at work

    :rotfl: My dark humor might be shining through- but that is hilarious! But seriously, to Gonzo, I am hoping nothing bad comes out of this situation. I have no words of advice to give you. My last stalker left me alone only after my scary looking ...
  6. What does LU mean?

    After some research, the best I can come up with is that it is the Lutheran Hospital Facility, and LU is the coding for that... if it is the ad that I found, it is surgery dept... hope that helps! Good luck! I hope you get the job!
  7. I'm probably nuts for asking, but....

    current nonsmoker, but previous smoker Proud member of the Green party, but fairly split between conservative and liberal... I'm more of an anarchist really.
  8. Hoping I don't get the flu

    Oh dear! I do hope you don't get the flu... but congratulations on your pregnancy! I do feel for you- being pregnant and having the flu would be no fun for you or your baby. What you said about being able to pick it up anywhere is true though, but ...
  9. Time-sensitive! : Suggestions for AP Flashcards

    Yikes! You have probably already had your test by now, so my reply will be in vain, but I have had a lot of recent experience with flashcards. Everyone in my class seemed to have a different approach to them, but for me, the making of the flashcard...
  10. Mandatory Flu Shots

    In response to the OP, I am just in school, but the school is requiring both the seasonal and the H1N1 vaccinations. We can sign a waiver if we want, but then we will have to wear a mask all day in clinicals. We will only be allowed to remove it fo...
  11. Son wants to be a CRNA, but wants his ears guaged

    Viewed as unprofessional = discrimination Should a person with tattoos or gauged ears also sue an establishment for asking that they be covered or removed? Both originated from tribal peoples and some people have them for spiritual reasons. Or are ...
  12. Son wants to be a CRNA, but wants his ears guaged

    I feel that discrimination based on body modification is as deplorable as any other form of discrimination. That being said, all forms of discrimination unfortunately still exist. Your son should do as he wishes, and if he does encounter problems, ...
  13. Your income vs price of homes

    that's good to know... it seemed like a cool resource, but things aren't always what they seem.
  14. Your income vs price of homes

  15. Donating blood- is it safe ?

    Please donate. While it is true that AB+ blood is the universal receiver, AB+ plasma is the universal plasma donor- and they need your plasma...
  16. IRSC students

    That is the same book I used... with the included CD. I just took the tests over and over again. I would also wait till late at night when I was really tired, and take the tests then too- somehow it seemed to exercise my brain a little more than wh...
  17. IRSC students

    Oh No!!! I am so sorry to hear it but all is not lost... you will be working on Bachelor's classes, and you can take the NLN exam again six months after the last time you took it. The highest score will count. NLN makes a great study guide for it- ...

    YAY!!! I am so happy for you!!! :anpom::cheers::rckn::w00t:
  19. IRSC students

    :ancong!: YAY! I look forward to seeing you in class...
  20. I think all the previous posters have answered your question but I just want to reiterate what they said, and to further encourage you-- DO IT!!! I am a thirty three year old single mom and have just been accepted to my nursing program. I am older ...
  21. IRSC students

    Alternurse- I don't mind your asking. I scored a 99 on my NLN, which is probably what got me in since I am finishing my pre-reqs this semester. That and I have straight A's in all the pre-reqs I have completed... but the plan to work on Bachelor's ...
  22. An Angel's Gaze

    Thank you so much for sharing your story. I am crying, and just gave my son a long hug. I have a friend who recently experienced a similar occurrence... she also says that God gave her an angel and needed him back... I admire the courage and streng...
  23. IRSC students

    Good Luck!!! I'm rooting for you... Keep me posted!
  24. IRSC students

    ADN program... although I did have a backup plan to start taking my Bachelor's courses if I hadn't made it in. For my son's sake I'm glad I made it though. The sooner I start working in the field the better- I'm not getting any younger! :chuckle ...
