  1. Nursing BURN OUT!!

    Do nurses "burn out" as quickly as most people say or is it just a rumor meant to scare everyone off! How do YOU personally avoid getting burnt out??
  2. my story

    I started following this forum sometime in 2008, and officially joined in 2009. At that time I was finishing up my B.A. in Psychology. During college (the first time), I had been pre-med, pre-physical therapy, pre-RT, just about anything pre-health. ...

  6. bachelors PA vs. masters PA

  10. bachelors PA vs. masters PA

    Lighten up..I'm in the RN forum because I am in a BSN program and have no reason to be on a PA forum. Assuming that RNs work with PAs, I figured you may know a little of their educational background. I will rephrase my "dumb as a brick" terminology ...

    why do some stetho's have only a one sided bell. what if you need the other side? why get the 1 sided..
  12. Struggles with finding a nursing job....

    Something you may have learned during your pre-reqs for nursing "correlation does not imply causation." - Just becuase you can not get a job does not mean EVERYONE can not get a job.
  13. not sure if getting a BSN is for me

    I agree with the above posts...I think your first desire and dream is to become a nurse in general, without saying "I want to be a nurse, BUT....." and your second desire should be contingent upon a speciality. Your thoughts are equivalent to wanting...
  14. What's it like working as a male nurse?

  18. Thinking of switching major to Nursing.

    You should become educate on what you are getting yourself into when you want to have a career in nursing. As the post said above, you will regret your decision not too long into working, that is if you even make it through clinicals. "Safe" is not g...
  19. Okay so from what I have heard, CRNA's make the highest in nursing, around $175-225,000.. What other specialties, and higher degree's lead towards a lucrative career in nursing? BTW my number from above is based off of NYS, so keeping in that area mi...
