  1. I couldn't believe what I was hearing!

    RNROSER2011 replied to sra27's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think I'd want to answer in a way that made it obvious to the speaker what a donkey's rear end he was. I'd follow this up with, "Our mission is to treat all patients with respect and our finest...

  2. Are you/have you self-diagnosed while in school?

    RNROSER2011 replied to mochamonster's topic in General Students

    OH you are so not alone! All of the students in my class laughed about this. I think every one of us thought we had something we were studying. And yes we all laughed with/at each other and ourselves....

  3. glendale community college nursing program

    RNROSER2011 replied to mmelrose's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm 43 yrs old, and I'm a single mom. If I can do this, anyone can! Don't get bogged down with all the reading, go off of the powerpoints and then make sure you can answer the NCLEX questions that are...

  4. glendale community college nursing program

    RNROSER2011 replied to mmelrose's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The students I know that had to work late on Thursday stayed up quite late to get their care plans done. I know there were a few all-nighters. Keep in mind though that clinicals aren't held during the...

  5. Regarding Endometriosis & going into Nursing

    RNROSER2011 replied to lil pixi's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I have a similar condition and I was worried about whether or not I'd have excessive absences. Add to that a daughter who has asthma and gets every cold virus known to medical science. Im more than...

  7. I Have a Bad Feeling About This Student - Am I Over-reacting?

    RNROSER2011 replied to SunnyPupRN's topic in General Nursing

    I understand you not wanting him to be sorry he confided in you but IMO you need to push this issue. You are a hero, as sure as if you'd given him CPR! I can't believe there are still school officials...

  8. Medically disqualified

    RNROSER2011 replied to smattles1of2's topic in Government, Military

    ....sometimes its who you know. I managed to get into the Navy Reserve with a history of adult asthma! And I wasn't going in as a medical professional, but an enlisted person in logistics. Be...

  9. Nurses struggling with mental illness

    RNROSER2011 replied to Severina's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I just want to say, I'm so impressed by all the posts. I get so frustrated when I'm confronted with an attitude(by people who should know better) that antidepressants are some kind of crutch. I...

  10. MCCCD glendale community college

    RNROSER2011 replied to mmelrose's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Im in the 3rd block weekend now and I highly recommend the 104 review class. As someone else said, it wasn't essential for the 1st block, but as things got a lot more challenging in 2nd block it was...

  12. Help! In Need of Encouragement

    RNROSER2011 replied to 2blessings's topic in General Nursing

    Obviously you have a lot on your plate. I would encourage you to retain your independance. Nursing is a good way to be able to support your children. Nursing school is the most stressful thing I've...

  13. I could use some emotional support!

    RNROSER2011 replied to pupsnpaws's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I dont think you could find anyone that DIDNT have doubts in nursing school. Hang in there, you'll be glad you did. I'm halfway through an ADN program and have perfected my dialog for my self-peptalk....

  14. My Mom just passed.....

    RNROSER2011 replied to Angel@MyTable's topic in General Nursing

    I'm so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. Its okay (especially under the circumstances) to have mixed feelings. Try to set aside some time with a close friend or mentor to talk. I don't think anyone...

  16. I passed block I !!! need advise for block II

    RNROSER2011 replied to Chechy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Best advice I can come up with is do any and all NCLEX style questions from the books and workbooks. Block II is more about applying what you've learned. It can be tricky to study for, but the...

  17. 46 too old to start nusring school?

    RNROSER2011 replied to cute2's topic in General Nursing

    I'm halfway through an ADN program and I'm almost 43. What matters is your determination and study skills. And thanks for asking the question. Its nice to see others my age thinking about changing...

  18. Failed my first semester of fundamentals/med surg (advice?)

    RNROSER2011 replied to Ava M.'s topic in General Students

    Oh for goodness sake! Do whatever you have to do (work two jobs) to save money enough to pay for your own education. Nursing school is hard enough when you want it. And show your folks the many...

  19. nightmare clinical experiences

    RNROSER2011 replied to kss0740's topic in Arizona Nursing

    You could look at the experience as a lesson in what not to do. I understand the feeling of being unwelcome in the clinical setting. My second semester was different, we were away from the SNF's in a...

  20. Starting to doubt nursing....

    RNROSER2011 replied to thongvo89's topic in General Nursing

    Trust me, if you think you feel indecisive and low in confindence, wait til you're in nursing school. Okay, maybe that's a bit of a rough week speaking...No one else can decide if its for you. All...

  21. What are you thankful for today?

    RNROSER2011 replied to Katie5's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, great question! I'm thankful for my wonderful, strong willed little girl who chases the dog around with a stethoscope telling me, "Mommie, I'm doing my clinicals!" I'm thankful for a loving,...

  22. glendale community college nursing program

    RNROSER2011 replied to mmelrose's topic in Arizona Nursing

    You're not dense at all, there seems to be a lack of communication from the school about the specifics of the class schedule. I'm sure that times of day could change, but all the classes for the...

  23. glendale community college nursing program

    RNROSER2011 replied to mmelrose's topic in Arizona Nursing

    What you don't know about the GCC weekend program going in is that in Block 2 (and possibly the other blocks) is you have to go to the hospital on Thursday afternoon/night to pick your patient and do...

  24. glendale community college nursing program

    RNROSER2011 replied to mmelrose's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm in the 2nd block of the weekend program. I took the 104 class both semesters and I found it does help to cement the concepts that we were learning. More so in block 1 than block 2. I was glad I...

  25. Anyone recently taken the NET?

    RNROSER2011 replied to Future-AZ-Nurse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I took the NET about two years ago and bought the book our college bookstore sold. I found it very helpful, although overpriced. Since I work and I'm a single mom, I didn't have a whole lot of time to...
