1. nursing career is looking grim!!!!!!!!!!!

   ADNRN replied to lildebbie-RN's topic in General Nursing

   Have you taken the NCLEX yet? You said you graduated on the 12th of December. Maybe you could concentrate on that. I can imagine this is really disappointing for you, but however slowly it passes, the...

2. Post-Mortem Care

   ADNRN replied to Zee_RN's topic in General Nursing

   The dead body no longer requires respect, except out of respect for the family, who are living. Only the living require respect. I've seen nurses all in tears over a dead body that they wouldn't...

3. Oh boy should I do this?

   ADNRN replied to koan's topic in General Nursing

   If you feel like you could make a difference, if that's really your reason for being a nurse, then don't worry about what you read in here. Most nurses I know are happy with their job. I couldn't...

   ADNRN replied to tmiller027's topic in General Nursing

   Good luck to you. I did the same thing. I worked at a nursing home during AP 1&2 and micro and then on Saturdays during level 1. I didn't work during level 2, but I did an externship during the...

5. I Hate Nursing School

   ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

   Did I not just say a few posts up that we need to drop the ADN BSN garbage? Oh, but why would reality stand in the way of you wagging a finger at me? After all, taking the opportunity to wag a finger...

   ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

   I hear you. Why don't they focus on nursing? Most of the people in our class have never done, in real life, any of the tasks we checked off

7. I Hate Nursing School

   ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

   Not that I would correct you on how I feel, but I pretty much hate nursing school. As I said, I love nursing, and I want to learn the remaining subjects that we are being taught. But I'm sick of the...

10. I Hate Nursing School

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I've noticed that about advocates for the BSN. They always give the diploma people a pass. Evidently, the conflict between BSN and ADN has nothing to do with one's ability to be a nurse. The conflict...

    Nice. By the way, I've always known that quitting was an option. But thanks for the priceless advice, anyway. I'll make sure to pass it along to the remaining members of my

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    A big WHATEVER to you. I'm glad to see that you've tried so hard to stay away from my posts and yet, bing!. Here you are. I am so sick of this. I exist; therefore I'm a troublemaker. Is it really me...

13. I Hate Nursing School

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know. I don't know if one needs the other college coursework to be a good nurse or not. Personally, I don't think so. Nursing school is nursing school. But your experience of it and mine are...

14. Business Cards?

    ADNRN replied to earthling's topic in General Nursing

    RNs on the floor may not need business cards, but I will have some made up just for the times I am out and want to exchange email addresses with someone, or whatever. Or if I write articles or send...

15. I Hate Nursing School

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    It's interesting to see that a lot of people feel the same way I do. I read a book once called "Intensive Care" by Echo Heron. She went to nursing school in the early 70s and her description sounds...
