  1. Nurses setting up other nurses!

    morphed replied to gerotina's topic in Ohio Nursing

    There was a thread on here a few weeks ago where some of the posts discussed this. It's really scary to think your license could be on the line because of someone else. I think some managers are...

  2. Is having a ADN useless these days?

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

    I say the following with sincerity: There is no point in reporting because it is not a violation of TOS to be

  3. How do you manage to be healthy with 12 hr shifts?

    morphed replied to Work in Progress's topic in General Nursing

    I tend to workout afterwards because then I can take a shower at the gym too. The thought of bringing germs into my home and shower really disgusts me. After the gym and shower I can just put on...

  4. How much of a yearly increase in pay do you see?

    morphed replied to missie988's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, that's actually a pretty good amount compared to other places. I think that's sort of unusual. Good for you

  5. Is having a ADN useless these days?

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

    I think she's trying to

  6. Is having a ADN useless these days?

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

    It's not about agreeing with me. It's about the fact that you repeat the same things without listening to logic, but it's very cute that you read into things and just come out with an outcome that...

  7. Is having a ADN useless these days?

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

    Let's just have solace in the fact that she won't be in charge of hiring anyone anytime

  8. Is having a ADN useless these days?

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

    Triquee, I'm really surprised you're 30 years old. Based on the way you talk and how you're so unwilling to see any point other than the one you keep repeating, I thought you were in your late teens...

  9. New GRE

    morphed replied to morphed's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I know the physical format of the GRE is going to be more user friendly but the test itself is going to be harder, from my understanding. I'm not sure what to do. Are you leaning one way or another?...

  10. Where does the public get the idea that nurses make a ton of money?

    morphed replied to edogs334's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Yes, you are a bit older than me (I'm in my 20s) but I am also concerned about retirement. I don't want to wait until I'm 40 and then go crazy because I missed the last 20 years of building a...

  11. Totally Mortified - Super High Blood Pressure @ Nursing Physical

    morphed replied to kk83's topic in General Students

    Jeez I always have the opposite problem. Mine is so low, even after drinking coffee, that people are worried I'm going to pass

  12. Is having a ADN useless these days?

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

    Maybe you should try attending a more challenging university if you are so unfulfilled with the class offerings for your current program. Maybe a more selective university might help you feel like...

  13. Where does the public get the idea that nurses make a ton of money?

    morphed replied to edogs334's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't think there's really any hostility, there's just lively discussions where everybody freely states their opinions. I find this website helpful...even if there are disagreements

  14. Is having a ADN useless these days?

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

    LOL and it's OK for people to say BSN is fluff. I call BS on that :) I'm sure the PhDs, and NPs that developed those programs had nothing in mind other than getting customers for their fluff...

  15. Where does the public get the idea that nurses make a ton of money?

    morphed replied to edogs334's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Your profile says you have a diploma RN, so that would lead me to believe you don't have a BSN and haven't done graduate work, that's why I asked if you had done grad work. As for your 24 years,...

  16. Highest paid specialty in nursing ?

    morphed replied to Elleveein's topic in General Nursing

    I thought she meant as a regular

  17. Highest paid specialty in nursing ?

    morphed replied to Elleveein's topic in General Nursing

    I generally check salary.com to see what different specialties pay. You can specialize the search to your area so you can see what the salary range for LPNs in L&D in your area is. I think what...

  18. Where does the public get the idea that nurses make a ton of money?

    morphed replied to edogs334's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Do you work full time? That's $83,000/year PLUS over time. What more do you want? And you don't have an advanced degree, right? Some people might say you're

  19. Where does the public get the idea that nurses make a ton of money?

    morphed replied to edogs334's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Um, no, I don't mind sharing. Sarcasm much? I meant you should take into consideration starting pay and what the average nurse gets if they look for new jobs after a few years experience. Then you...

  20. Should I Start Nursing School Now??

    morphed replied to dhicks2213's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for reminding us of that--we seemed to be forgetting it. Everybody is saying the economy is bad and it's affecting nursing, but it's actually affecting everything. Are we supposed to not go...

  21. Should I Start Nursing School Now??

    morphed replied to dhicks2213's topic in General Nursing

    it was from the work of multiple phds that were working on studying the trends of the nursing workforce...they might know something. your link doesn't look like a peer-reviewed journal, but a local...

  22. Where does the public get the idea that nurses make a ton of money?

    morphed replied to edogs334's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's not like nurses have purely altruistic reasons for going into nursing. No matter how much nurses claim they all go into it "for the right reasons", I don't believe for one moment that the pay...

  23. Where does the public get the idea that nurses make a ton of money?

    morphed replied to edogs334's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Agreed! I also think it's irresponsible to NOT take into account how much money you could possibly make when you graduate. By the way, if someone got into nursing because they thought they'd enjoy...

  24. Should I Start Nursing School Now??

    morphed replied to dhicks2213's topic in General Nursing

    If you are serious about building yourself a long career in nursing, then yes, go for it. By the time you finish your program, we will most likely be in a whole new economy. By 2012 the average age...

  25. Has anyone received their license after submitting declaratory for bipolar?

    morphed replied to kmdjkennedy's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, that seems like a pretty legitimate concern... Not that I think people with bipolar (or other disorders) should not be nurses. There are many people with a variety of disorders that...
