  1. What is your opinion on this matter?

    happy2learn replied to happy2learn's topic in General Nursing

    I'm just going to ask my manager. I don't want to leave the hospital. The main reason I volunteer here is because I support them, and I love what they do for the less fortunate. I'm sure there is a...

  4. What is your opinion on this matter?

    happy2learn replied to happy2learn's topic in General Nursing

    How much am I really allowed to get involved though, since I am a volunteer for this hospital? I obviously don't want to cross any boundary. We were told to not talk to media. The media is aware. The...

  6. CNA class while 6-7 months pregnant?

    happy2learn replied to Lauren0106's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not making a broad generalization. I used an example. Since when is an example a broad generalization? I said if I were paired with her, as in the girl in my class. I didn't say if I were paired...

    happy2learn replied to MiszMo's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I know someone who works full time in the ED as an RN and goes to school full time to become an NP. So it can be done. Personally, I am going straight through school RN-MSN/DNP. I might be lucky (God...

    happy2learn replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    This may sound crazy, but I saw 2 really nice Littmann stethoscopes at..... Goodwill. They were only like $50. They sell for $100 online. I would just buy the scrubs online. And yes, amazon...

  10. Recognizing achievement

    happy2learn replied to Otessa's topic in General Nursing

    I personally wouldn't care. I don't achieve things for other people. I do it for myself. I recognize myself by having my favorite drink..... amaretto

  11. CNA class while 6-7 months pregnant?

    happy2learn replied to Lauren0106's topic in General Nursing

  12. Really is flomax that expensive?

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    I would bet the reason he enjoys self treating is because he is trying to find cheaper alternatives to manage his health. I spoke with many seniors who had to pick and choose which med was more...

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    You can look up cost without insurance on drugstore.com But you really wouldn't be able to look up his co-pay

  15. Really is flomax that expensive?

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    Is he in the coverage gap? If so, it's about $400 for 90 capsules. If not, co-pays can still be quite high for brand name meds. If he is taking the brand name, Flomax, I would advise him to check...

    happy2learn replied to blo0eyes's topic in Emergency

  17. ED Visitors Policy

    happy2learn replied to blo0eyes's topic in Emergency

    An ID would really serve no purpose. I would just find it a hassle and I think if I had to ask for ID when a husband is freaking out over his wife, that would send him over the top. Some of them come...

  18. Trying to avoid undesirable CNA duties

    happy2learn replied to girtenbt's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Unless you run around with open sores on your hands and wrists, you are more likely to catch something by someone's cough or sneeze. Ever seen a picture of a slow motion

    happy2learn replied to Strontium's topic in General Nursing

    I second this suggestion. Look at the requirements for other programs, take the classes you need at this school since it's cheaper, then transfer. I go to a community college and all of the pre-reqs...

  20. New adventure or Big Mistake? Need advice please

    happy2learn replied to Strontium's topic in General Nursing

    Are they saying you probably won't get in until 2013, or you won't be able to apply until 2013? It doesn't make sense that it would take you 3 years to complete 15

  24. Backstabbing/Gossip in Nursing School

    happy2learn replied to silverhalide's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I'd just ignore it. They are just showing everyone how "professional" they are. If they want to look childish in a professional environment, let them. Just makes you look even better! I don't get...
