Very sweet, thanks for posting.

Garbage man = Sanitary engineer...no thanks. We all knew the job title before we began to seek it. If you are not man enough to be called a Nurse, you are not man enough for the job.

What what you PREFER to be called?? "well, my actual name has worked well for that kind of thing for all my life...soooo, cal me "Ishmael" What you call me will make very little difference to either of us when the time comes to call me. Paramedic onl...

This is perhaps a first...a topic upon which ALL of the posters are in complete agreement. Should give the OP some pause. If you STILL think you have some sort of valid argument to make in such a paper, perhaps the best career for you would be some...

I come from a long line of Doctors...many of my family,friends, sailing and hunting buddies are Dr.s nearly all have been married SEVERAL times..often to nurses or staff. I've been engaged three times, all three have broken it off to marry a Doctor(a...

A good bit of my recreation and home work takes place outdoors...so my neck does tend to get a bit of sun, I have become fairly conservative and tend to vote Repub.(though I was a radical hippie socialist in my youth) I don't want to work around anyo...

We did it during skills test....but the "patients" were other instructors/former students(from outside of our class) paid as "actors" but also professional enough to critique our technique. For practice we used mannikins/each other and were able to p...

"(I mean I live in a really rough ghetto neighborhood with lots of crime)" Do your job...it's your ticket OUT...to a place where the "LIFE" is not so crazy. When you said "violence, theft etc.." you didn't say whether you were the victim or the perp....

A 7mnth old didn't get a chance to make many friends...you were one. Chances are good that the mother will see you as perhaps the ONLY one who REALLY understands what she feels. Go. Stay in the backround but go.

Hoooah..

Welcome Mr BJ, It is a genuine burden and a challenge to be the smartest guy in the room, all of the time. Until you can find a school with the quality of teachers required...who also understand that "They work for You" perhaps you could take some of...

depending upon which test you get, you better know your roman numerals to around five digits also...

no paper, no calculator, no cell phone , no jacket...a couple of pencils and THEY will supply some scratch paper

I had until apr.23rd to take the TEAS for fall, I work all over the midwest so I arranged to get off and drive in on that Fri. started calling at 8:00 and kept getting a message to state my request and they would call me back with a time to be there,...

I got that a lot when I was starting NRS classes(at 50) mostly from Doctors who are also friends. I was pre-med in the 70's but had a bad motorcycle wreck and went to work in the oil fields when I could walk again.(nearly 2 years) My grades are good ...

ALL of the nursing schools in this area, NW Ohio, require 2.6 or better in all core classes, ONE retry. Then you are out...for good, no other program can take you. A friend missed by one point on her last patient log prior to graduation with BSN, had...

Should be simple...no one gets paid to text friends, if it is not directly work related you should not be doing it(emergencies excepted of course, but some peoples standard of "emergency" is a little broad). Do your job when you are on the job. Con...

RE: AWTY...you are talking about statistics, I'm talking about real people and the facts on the ground. How did I know they were stoned? The guy who fell from the tower smoked a joint just minutes beforehand...The guy who closed a set of drilling ri...

I have worked with addicts and alcoholics for twenty two years...Mj IS a gateway to the other stuff, no If, ands or buts. Just today there was a national news story of an airline incident where a "Patient" dbl dosed after a visit to his "Dispensary" ...

Apparently it has to do with the lack of Nursing degrees of those on the teaching staff, and the lack of Secondary degrees that include nursing majors. There was also some mention of post graduation employment percentages. I'm still trying to find de...

I just found out at dinner last night from a woman who is an RN at a local hospital. Apparently they only had conditional accreditation to begin with(though they told me they were FULLY accredited) and now THAT has been pulled. I found a brief story ...

They have lost their accreditation, I am in the RN program and was not notified. Just found out yesterday from people NOT associated with the school. I'm having trouble even getting a meeting with a councilor to find out how this will effect my gradu...
