  1. Paying for Nursing School

    happy2learn replied to GaLara's topic in General Students

    I go to a community college and so does my husband. He works full time. We both get about $1500 extra every quarter(5 times per year) from our Stafford loan money after tuition is

  2. MSN to DNP?

    happy2learn replied to tnisgrl33's topic in Post Graduate Students

    From what I understand, the MSN will phase out. My local university is already starting this process. They should have the DNP only and no MSN in 2012. They also will have a BSN-DNP program and it...

  3. advanced prac nursing changes?

    happy2learn replied to mamacRN's topic in Nursing Career

    People who get an MSN and become an NP will be grandfathered in. You won't be required to get the DNP. The DNP change is happening in my area. The universities are accepting their last MSN class and...

  4. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    You have never been in an environment where people eat there young if you think the comments here are on that level. I admit that some of them were rude, but far from that environment. Humility does...

  5. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    It wouldn't matter your looks in a bad neighborhood. Get some pepper spray or something and keep it visible as well. If you keep about your business, keep your phone visible, and stay aware of your...

  6. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    I have to second that. I tried to help dig you out, but I'm not going in with

  7. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    well, dear, you aren't denying it, so you may as well admit

  8. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    You're not making the matters any better with this

  9. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    It is possible, but none of us were there, so it is also possible that everyone is interpreting a message that didn't need to be interpreted. Yes, a few people did address the situation properly, as...

  10. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    Why does it matter if a person thinks they are beautiful? What's the point of cutting someone down who has confidence in that area? I just don't get it. And we wonder why so many people need...

  11. Attractive nurses in danger?!

    happy2learn replied to Blackheartednurse's topic in General Nursing

    Is it really necessary to cut down the OP in regards to how she feels about her appearance? Why can't you all just let her believe she is beautiful without the snide

  12. what will happened to MSN NPprograms in 2015

    happy2learn replied to greatgirl123's topic in Post Graduate Students

    People who become an NP through the MSN will still be an NP. They won't need to go into the DNP program. There would be a grandfathering

  13. Do RN's need special training to read PPD tests?

    happy2learn replied to SarahM2011's topic in General Nursing

    I had a medical assistant administer my TB, and she read it 2 days later. None of the people I spoke with were nurses. I only knew because they were all talking about wanting to go to nursing school...

  14. what will happened to MSN NPprograms in 2015

    happy2learn replied to greatgirl123's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I have to disagree. I didn't believe it would happen at first, but I was completely wrong. The local universities in my area have already started the transition to DNP only, and are phasing out the...

  15. I have no immunization records... what do I do?

    happy2learn replied to basilisk06's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was in the same boat. The only shot record I had was 1 MMR done. My pediatrician had not been in business for years. I do not have a physician. I'm 24 and I don't have health insurance. So I needed...

  16. University dropping class

    happy2learn replied to prenursingnau's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would take it online and transfer it. I'm just finishing up my Nutrition class online and it was very easy. It is definitely an easily doable online

  17. Other Students Repeatedly Asking me for things....

    happy2learn replied to beingthankful's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A bunch of us in my A&P classes get together and share our study guide answers with each other. We end up changing our location when the people who do NO work try to get our answers. I don't mind...

  18. Is anyone squeemish?

    happy2learn replied to CNAkt's topic in General Students

    I'm in the same boat as you! Smelly poop and vomit are what bothers me. I get my first taste of the bedpan cleaning when I start my STNA clinicals mid July. :uhoh3:I've already decided to clog my nose...

  19. Is having a ADN useless these days?

    happy2learn replied to Back2Nursing09's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Every job posting in my area says "BSN preferred" or "BSN required." Not ONE posting in my area does NOT say anything like that. I believe that if an employer is given a choice between a person with...

  20. Advice needed on further education from here

    happy2learn replied to Rocknurse's topic in General Nursing

    MSN from RN seems to take about 3 years, full time. At least, that's what I've seen at my local university. I know the university by me does offer the NP programs online, of course you still have to...

  21. Any suggestions on what to use to carry all of these books?

    happy2learn replied to Kymber7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would ask if they would allow a pda or ipod touch where you can get the apps for some of those books. Check their policy on that. I think lugging around a ton of books would distract me and...

  22. GPA DILEMMA

    happy2learn replied to ST MeLa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I highly doubt you will get into an accelerated program, most of those require at least a 3.0. Also, the CRNA program is the most competitive of the MSN programs, and for good reason. All of the...

  23. Need help Figuring out if I need a ADN to get into BSN

    happy2learn replied to unsureity's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I would go for your BSN for two reasons: 1. Competition is high in the nursing field and a higher degree, all other factors constant, may give you some advantage. 2. You are wanting to become an NP,...

  24. For Profit Colleges?

    happy2learn replied to Donald11's topic in General Students

    There are huge problems with the for profit nursing programs in my area. They all have been kicked out of the hospitals. They can only do clinicals at nursing homes. Anyways... Make sure you can...

  25. Flossing question

    happy2learn replied to ERsn's topic in General Nursing

    Well, if it does, it's not actually your teeth that is causing the gap. It means that you had a bunch of crap build up on your teeth and the flossing removed it. How do I know? I never really took...
