  1. I find this completely absurd, and IMO this nurse needs some sort of repurcussion for her actions. Calling CPS is a big deal, and should not be taken lightly. I was curious what other nurses opinions would be over this. BABY HELD AT HOSPITAL, NURSE...
  2. Nurses really aren't the smartest people

    I belong to a parenting forum. A girl made a post about the parenting class she took, where she was given some information regarding breastfeeding that she didn't think was correct. She had asked her mom, who told her something different. So she cam...
  3. Psych nursing while pregnant

    I'm sure that it happens from time to time, people obviously get pregnant. But how dangerous do you think it really would be? Something to avoid at all costs, or doable?
  4. University of South Alabama

    Anyone have any RECENT info or reviews? I did a search, but it seems all the threads are a year old or more. I'm interested in their Psych NP specifically. The reviews before were negative that were on here mostly, but those were for medical NP also....
  5. Excellence with Clinical now

    From the FB page NRSE 4600 is an on-line class. There is a new accreditation requirement that we have to have one course with a clinical component in our RN to BSN. NRSE 4600 will have one project that will include working with a preceptor of your ...
  6. Nursing Excellence 4600 Starting 9/30

    Still don't have DB grade and it's Friday. Just got my clinical grade for week 2 today. I lost points for not having enough data to support my resolutions, and needed further development on my implications.
  7. Nursing Excellence 4600 Starting 9/30

    For week 2, does it specify how many references on the indirect project? I read the rule of thumb one direct quote per box, but am not seeing how many total the minimum is?
  8. Nursing Excellence 4600 Starting 9/30

    I'm in. I have procrastinated this week though and haven't done crap for it I'll be cramming for sure.
  9. Tuition rates/student loans

    How much do you think is an "ok" amount to pay in tuition for an NP? How much in student loans is acceptable following grad school? Everything I look at seems so expensive, since my BSN was on the lower end tuition wise. I have loans from my associat...
  10. Tuition rates/student loans

    Thank you, that was the other part I was wondering!! Gives me something to go on when looking at tuition rates. I was able to pay for my BSN out of pocket luckily.
  11. Tuition rates/student loans

    I thought that I had heard that before about the first year income. While I owe a decent size amount still, I don't think grad school will put me over that. I'm already going to be 36, so I don't want to wait much longer. I've waited due to having ki...
  12. Looking for new job after just starting one

    Yes, simply to make it take effect faster. Because it was being given 3 hours late. I asked her to give a pill that I forgot to give, because I was already an hour over and still had charting to get done. She refused and said she would give it when s...
  13. Looking for new job after just starting one

    I'm sure there are topics on this, but I'm just too tired to go searching, so I'm sorry. I recently relocated, and started a new job. I've had a week of corporate orientation, then had 3 days at the facility. I was given 8 hours orientation of my fi...
  14. Looking for new job after just starting one

    Great thanks. I wasn't going to put it on my app, because for one, I don't really want them calling them, plus it seems pointless to use a job I've been at a week. I have plenty of previous employment. I was at my previous job for 3 1/2 years. I'm al...
  15. University of South Alabama PMHNP Students 2013-2015

    I'm interested to hear how you guys do, after all the problems stated in the previous thread. Good luck!
  16. 12 hour shifts and young kids

    Just curious, those of you who have young kids and work 12 hours, how do they handle it? They do ok? I have been part time for 5 years, but we recently relocated states. The only position in my specialty right now is 12 hours full time day shifts, wh...
  17. 12 hour shifts and young kids

    I can't function on night shift. I just came off them, and will not do it again. It was horrible. We found someone we are going to try out for now. See how it goes.
  18. 12 hour shifts and young kids

    I am married, but he works as well. He's off Monday and Tuesdays, possibly Wednesdays. The other days, we don't know yet if he will be days or evenings. He's a kitchen manager for a seasonal restaurant. I'm working on a sitter who will come to our ho...
  19. Statistics outside OU?

    Anyone know of any short classes outside OU that do NOT require algebra to take it? OU told me I could take stats concurrently with Evidence, but apparentely that is not true. But due to not being able to get into Student Center to register until yes...
  20. Why is it always "Fire the nurse"

    I understand that when things go not as expected, or people don't feel they got the care they deserve, they have a right to be upset. If it was due to a mistake a nurse made, I understand feeling it was the nurses fault. But I don't understand the "f...
  21. Nursing 4600 Excellence Spring Session 2

    Any updates on the "clinical" component and what the preceptor does?
  22. PSY 1110 Feb 2013

    I'm on the fence. I really get some of it, then others I struggle so bad on. I'm spending a ridiculous amount of time on the work. I'm so stressed, but I'm also taking Evidence with it. Big mistake. I knew I shouldn't take stats with anything else, b...
  23. Western Oklahome Intersession classes

    Who has done these? I'm planning on doing the anthropology one on Christmas break to meet the cross cultural requirement. Any info on it? How hard is it to do?
  24. Western Oklahome Intersession classes

    Wait, you mean they are not doing any intercession anymore?
  25. PSY 1110 Feb 2013

    I don't know how many I missed for mod 1, but quite a few. I thought I had a fairly good understanding. I got 100% on mod 2 though. I'm taking this with Evidence, and I am going to lose my ever loving mind. I have a 3.9 GPA, and I am so afraid I'm go...
