I felt this way about my current job. Organizational issues make me want to drive off a cliff and I am very thorough like you are. I'm going to take a moment to vent like you. I love my job but it honestly drives me to drink some days/weeks. Some of...

I haven't had that yet, other than the helpful bit about it being unhelpful to reorient alzheimers patients, I thought that you did a good job and was in awe of your composure in a difficult case. I totally understand that you would take it personall...

I am sorry you had a rotten experience. Things will get better. You learned some valuable lessons today and you will not make those mistakes again :). I think your instructor was a bit harsh. She sounds like the "lay down the law type". Unfortunately...

I really have no idea why they would be doing this to you. Just play it safe for your last 3 weeks. You can consider bringing it to HR, but things can get a little messy. Make sure you DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. Best of luck and I'm sorry about this happe...

You did a good job, and you were a kind and caring soul during the most difficult time in a families life. Your story and your compassion brought me to tears, and I thank you for sharing it. You are and will be an excellent nurse.

Good for you two. You are not the only ones either, there are multiple readmits in my program. You will make it- just keep your head up. In regards to helping you learn Toiya, I have an iPhone and sometimes it helped me to tape the lectures. I am au...

1. Stop being a !@#$% for no reason. 2. How dare you give a student 100 % on participation when he showed up for 3 classes and myself 65% when I only missed 3 classes. Thanks for giving these same students 93 percent for spending 1 hour on their assi...

1) I am with the noisy kids in the back. (embarassed) But I have to say, do not give us dirty looks and 'shhh' when we whisper. Then turn around and chat your friends up and giggle as loudly as possible. At least we sit in the back of the class and t...

I can't really comment on if that is related to her ADD but I wouldn't pay much mind to it and treat it like a personal quirk.

Hello, I am also a practical nursing student in my first semester. I wanted to say that I am sorry and I have nearly been in your shoes before. I cried and cried for days and it was an awful experience. There is a girl in my program who has also been...

Hello Phil. Our situations vary a bit but I just wanted to say that I too had some challenges that prevented me from succeeding in school. However after having a similar revelation I turned my life around. I have never completed highschool, but I di...

Interesting how you answered about the OR. I spoke to a nursing student last year and she told me that also was her favourite rotation when she got to scrub in on an open heart surgery. It was so fascinating when she told me, she was so clearly enamo...

Greetings! To briefly introduce myself I am a student in the Pre-Health Sciences program at Fanshawe College in London Ontario. I am applying soon to the Western and Fanshawe Collaborative program in Registered Nursing and am optimistically hoping to...

I am almost certain that fanshawe/western bscn collaborative program only accepts prehealth from fanshawe. It does make sense that i can hold on to my course outlines and will now certainly do thanks to your advice :). Just keep in mind that there is...

If you don't want to it's entirely to your discretion. To clarify for others I am not asking for ID numbers (not that I know what that is, and would not ask even in person!) I am in the middle of establishing contact with another nurse, and will prob...

Hey, I am a pre health sciences student at fanshawe college. I know you have some answers already but I just wanted to contribute that I have spoken to nursing students who say that the sciences greatly helped them in first year nursing.. Pre healt...

In the Beginning 1. When did you initially consider becoming a nurse? Can you tell me a little about the reason(s) why you have become a nurse today? Nursing School 2. Now that we have briefly discussed a little about the beginning of your nursing ca...

Hi, I've been accepted to the Pre-Health Sciences program at Fanshawe College at the London campus. I just finished up my adult biology and chemistry credits and have a lot of time on my hands so I've decided to study ahead for my program. The reason...

I am younger, and do not have the same family issues that you do.. But i wanted to make an observation that there is a suprising stigma that the nursing profession is easy to get into. It's university and very competitive in my province! Not even th...

I am really excited right now and just wanted to talk about this... I applied in February to Pre-health sciences and rpn programs and was waitlisted for rpn and accepted into Pre-health sciences with a 4.09/4.2 average in my academic upgrading / adul...

I'm applying to Fanshawe college and I'm deciding whether or not to choose the RPN route or the Prehealth.. I'm accepted into prehealth right now, waitlisted for woodstock RPN and still being decided for London RPN. As far as I know there are 3 Unive...

Good for you, and thanks i'll look into seeing if there are any colleges around that offer it.

No, if I decide I want to take rpn I would be entering straight into that program.. I can either take RPN ---- > Bridge to RN Prehealth ---> Rn collab program with uow and fanshawe. I had questions about where in ontario there are universities...

Hi guys! I'm currently a student that is interested about going into nursing. Currently we're being assigned a 5-7 page essay on something we would be learning for our future career. I've been having trouble finding free sources if any, and to be per...

Thank you so much :) You got my foot in the door and I think I can write/research the rest of my essay from here. That's so weird that the doctor doesn't take more part, that is absolutely not how they are represented in media.. That's another essay...
