  1. What is a "specialized nurse"?

    Things are changing. I added up the years since I have been in the UK and it has been 7. How time flies. When I was there the had RGN. But from my understanding of your post is that you still...
  2. What is a "specialized nurse"?

    No one mentioned that in the UK there is a registered general nurse and a registered children's nurse. If you want to work with children you must be a registered children's nurse. If you are coming...
  3. How marketable is the ADN?

    I wish I knew which schools would give the best shot. But it can change each semester. I think the max you can pick is 5 or 6 and I will be choosing 5 or 6 choices. The more flexible you are the...
  4. How marketable is the ADN?

    I am doing the prereqs at Rio. I will be finishing up my last prereqs (CNA and microbiology) in the spring so I will apply for the fall. From what I heard the maximum wait right now is one semester....
  5. Uhm...Why no CPR?

    Well I am betting that "nurse" was not a lpn or rn. Love the mom's comment that she didn't know that he could get die from diabetes. Do people really not realize how serious a disease it is?...
  6. How marketable is the ADN?

    The actual nursing ones are transferable as far as I know. The ones belowaren't. When I said block 1 I meant these not the actual nursing block. Sorry I reread my post and it did come off as not...
  7. sign on bonuses...is it just me?

    I used to be an manager (not nursing) and did the hiring, pay, etc. and the one thing people never got is yes they do have to ask. No company is going to come to you anytime, unless it is annual...
  8. sign on bonuses...is it just me?

    Have you went and asked for more money and the same bonus. They might be willing to pay it to you
  9. Midwife Pay

    What could a midwife with a master's degree in Midwifery (Bachelor in Nursing) expect to make in the UK? Does it even make a difference what degree you have? What positions would she likely be...
  10. More male nurses

    The thread on transvestite nursing student got me thinking. And as I have a report coming up I thought I might do it on male nurses in l&d. How many of you work with male nurses in L&D? Are...
  11. How marketable is the ADN?

    Have you really looked into the program. Not all of the classes are transferable (1st block isn't) and you will still have to do the ADN prereqs. I assume the actual nursing ones are transferable as...
  12. I am wondering the same! My hubby would believe it grew back together but myself I am done having babes. My last pg was very hard on me. PTL and PIH. 3rd baby, 1st time with PIH -- weird and yes...
  13. More male nurses

    Hey Pepper, What MW group do you go to? I go to the one on 35th and Bethany. I was also glad not to have to use the male drs. I love the mw's there and still go for my regular, yearly checks....
  14. Falsely Accused of a HIPAA Violation

    They would have to provide the documentation of your termination. Your lawyer could have it subpeoned (sp) and any investigator worth their salt (the fed agencies investigate fair employee law...
  15. Falsely Accused of a HIPAA Violation

    First off I was responding to Angus and secondly your response comes off as really rude. Please try to read the websites and responses posted and make some conclusions. We both gave you the info you...
  16. Falsely Accused of a HIPAA Violation

    Actually that is not entirely true, even in the land of AZ with its wonderful employee protections -- not . A employer cannot fire you for any reason that is legally protected from wrongful...
  17. "Registered User"

    Go under edit profile, then type what you want where it says custom user
  18. A question about Diploma Nurses

    At the university here both ADN and DN get the same number of credits towards a BSN in the RN to BSN program. Which tells me that they are considered equivalent in education. But as another poster...
  19. Increase in minor complaints?

    Hasn't anyone heard of urgent care. If my dr can't fit me in and I can't wait (well kids can't wait. I can always wait it out) I would rather take them to urgent care if it doesn't require an ER...
  20. MA's Calling Themselves Nurses?

    this is interesting. http://www.fsmaonline.org/officenurse.htm "office nurse" title for medical assistants is legally dangerous by donald a. balasa, jd, mba, cae aama executive director and legal...
  21. MA's Calling Themselves Nurses?

    thank you. i am only a prenursing student but as a consumer it really irks me to think of a non rn or lvn calling themselves a nurse. so i am going to research some of the laws of states not...
  22. MA's Calling Themselves Nurses?

    Excuse me while I hyperventilate. Lots of people have the same educational degree as a nurse. So hey why not let someone with a BS in gardening call themselves a nurse, while they give you a shot...
  23. I took mine at SUNY Empire State. Not sure I would say it was easy but wasn't too hard. Lots of research and you have a paper at the end in lieu of an in person
  24. MA's Calling Themselves Nurses?

    How about the doctor having a heart attack but not having a real nurse in the office to assist his or her butt and call 911. What a story. Dr dies due to lack of nurses in the office. Okay it has...
  25. I found both pretty easy but I love math. You probably don't want to hear this but I think you should do both. They are both so different and will help you in different ways. Statistics is neat...
