  1. Whooping cough redux; your story?

    VampyrSlayer replied to nurseprnRN's topic in General Nursing

  2. Whooping cough redux; your story?

    VampyrSlayer replied to nurseprnRN's topic in General Nursing

    I had whooping cough in 7th grade. Doctors thought I was faking it (how I'm supposed to fake blue fingernails from low oxygen I have no idea...) kept sending me back to school. 115 kids in my grade,...

  3. white scrub tops and males

    VampyrSlayer replied to jltbone's topic in Men in Nursing

    I say we move on from discussing the homosexuality of white tops and discuss whose brilliant idea it was to put a bunch of child bearing age females (there are no males in my class) in white pants....

    VampyrSlayer replied to TerpGal02's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Hahaha I'm a huge hypochondriac and I'm not even a nurse yet, but I have EMT training so that gave me some insight into symptoms. Just yesterday I started panicking because I had shoulder and arm pain...

  6. Should I go to school to become a nurse or PA?

    VampyrSlayer replied to debbieprobe's topic in General Nursing

    I second the shadowing thing. And a BSN seems to be more desirable now. Since you already have a bachelors I'd go for ABSN. As for guaranteed employment, the nursing shortage is a myth (or so I keep...

    VampyrSlayer replied to tytkhat's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It was full of drs living there too and we never called anyone dr

  10. Addressing patients by their first name...

    VampyrSlayer replied to tytkhat's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The elderly home I worked at (ind, asst, full care and dementia) was strict first names only. They said it was more of a family there (although this was like a small city and only wealthy people lived...

    VampyrSlayer replied to LifesAJourney's topic in Nursing Humor

    I may or may not be a little obsessed with a certain show from the

  12. What reality show do you follow?

    VampyrSlayer replied to Brian's topic in General Students

    I watch 19 Kids and Counting. Only reality show I watch. I used to watch Jon and Kate Plus 8 when it was on. I love big families as I'm an only child. I don't have tv so I watch it

  13. NH APPLICANTS 2014

    VampyrSlayer posted a topic in General Nursing

    I all! I thought I'd create a home base to see if anyone else is applying to any NH colleges/universities nursing programs for 2014. I'm looking into NHTI, Lakes, and River Valley! Good luck

  14. The "inconsiderate" one

    VampyrSlayer replied to elijahvegas's topic in Male Nursing Students

    This reminds me of a YouTube video called "b*tchy resting face" quite funny but rings a bit true to those of us "afflicted" by this

  15. wearing a mask during flu season

    VampyrSlayer replied to rpattee's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm not a nurse (applying to school) but I work with food at the hospital. Flu shot was mandatory for me. I usually get it every year regardless because I've gotten the flu without it and never with...

  18. Nursing Salary Survey 2014

    VampyrSlayer replied to TheCommuter's topic in General Nursing

    If I may... I'm not the person on cape cod but as it is part of the state of Massachusetts I'm assuming "over the bridge" alludes to another part of mass. At least that's how I interpreted it!

  19. How many classes are you taking this Spring?

    VampyrSlayer replied to FutureLVN2019's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Syllabus is your best friend! Don't forget you time or else you will get burnt out like I did last semester. I managed 2 As and a B but I coulda probably gotten all As if I hadn't been burnt out...

  23. How do you pay for School

    VampyrSlayer replied to Crew2Nursing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm possibly going to start working in the hospital cafeteria soon! I doubt tuition reimbursement is part of their benefit package but we'll

  24. Post your Fall 2013 grades!

    VampyrSlayer replied to __patiently_waiting's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hahaha I hope you don't! A lot of people seem to think micro is easier. I guess I'm a "big" picture person lol I found micro interesting, but also a little dry. I'd much rather do a simulation of...

  25. Post your Fall 2013 grades!

    VampyrSlayer replied to __patiently_waiting's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've always been weird. I think I like how I can visualize the body and put the stuff I learned into practical use. I was the weird one in school who loved algebra and hated geometry which most of the...
