  1. STR8 vs Gay Male RN

    ADNRN replied to Ah life!'s topic in General Nursing

    I don't know. I suppose I'm saying whatever you think I'm saying. After all, how could I convince you of anything to the

  2. charge nurse and nurse manager

    ADNRN replied to vedm's topic in General Nursing

    Nurse managers shouldn't be on the floor filling in for nurses who call off. If they have time to do that, then the unit probably needs to be combined with another unit. Managers are managers. I...

  3. Confused

    ADNRN replied to Wookie's topic in General Nursing

    I was 37 when I started nursing school. Besides, the ADN is the quickest route. I don't think there are any "accelerated" programs for that. There are accelerated RN to BSN degrees, but you have to...

  4. NP vs. PA? advantages?

    ADNRN replied to RachelinMali's topic in General Nursing

    It would be interesting to know what the job opportunities are for both. Is it easier to get hired as a physician's assistant as a NP or PA. Of course, I would do neither. I would either be an MD or...

  5. STR8 vs Gay Male RN

    ADNRN replied to Ah life!'s topic in General Nursing

    Silly me. Where's my head. Females are dying just the same as men these days in combat. I apologize if I implied they weren't. I only meant to criticize the mentality of war in

  6. STR8 vs Gay Male RN

    ADNRN replied to Ah life!'s topic in General Nursing

    As a soon to be male nurse, I too have wondered about the gay issue. I thought there would be more, but it seems to me, so far, there are less gay male nurses than straight male nurses. And the four...

  7. which one would prepare me.

    ADNRN replied to Masters's topic in General Nursing

    A registered nurse only requires 2 years of nursing school + prerequisits which might tack on another year at the front end. It's been that way since the 50's. Mother Teresa only had about three...

  8. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    Finally, someone with enough family jewels to stand up and correct Christ! But I would suggest that Christ was coming from the belief that we are not really separate individuals, that in fact we are...

  9. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    Fair enough. Fair enough, indeed. The Golden Rule is your nature. I wish I could say the same about me. It is not my nature. My philosophy is not in my nature. Nothing good comes out of my nature,...

  10. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think Joe Churchgoer actually believes we are all one. Christ evidently believed we should be, but when has Christ ever stood in the way of what a Christian will

  11. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not a nurse. I'm a nursing student. As far as burnout goes, I have no idea. However, I have been an aid in both a nursing home, and now on a cardiac care unit, for whatever that is worth to you. I...

  12. Rookie Wannabe Nurse!!!

    ADNRN replied to kchociej's topic in General Nursing

    Last I read it was around 5%, which is up from the traditional 3%. I too am a student nurse and a male one, tooboot. In the military, the ratio, I hear is closer to 50%. I don't know if that's true or...

  13. Dr. orders or nursing judgement???

    ADNRN replied to Alie's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a nursing student, too. And every test, since level one, has had a couple of questions that some bozo instructor fumbled up. It's because they have MSNs in Nursing and not in Education. It's hard...

  14. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    Do as you will, but harm ye none? Why? I mean, why should I not harm

  15. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't like all my patients either. But then I don't like myself in many

  16. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    But what drives you to live by your philosophy of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you? After all, we know that no good deed goes unpunished, so even though you don't gossip, others...

  17. Philosophy of Nursing

    ADNRN replied to ADNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I think you were teasing when you first said you were teasing and then explained that you were only teasing. But imagine if smoking pot could really make a person "monistic." I'd say it would be more...

  18. When did you know you wanted to be a nurse?

    ADNRN replied to Cryssi's topic in General Nursing

    2 and 1/2 years ago, and now I'm about to graduate from an ADN program (last semester). I was doing some volunteer work for a hospice and someone mentioned that when we sat with an elderly client, we...
