  1. Assessing Each Other??!??

    I have read in these forums that there are many schools that, when taking Health Assessment, the nursing students practice on each other! Is this true? I figured that assessment would take place during clinicals, in an appropriate place. I find it...
  2. Ohio University - Regional Campuses

    What's up, you all? I'm very excited to start nursing school this fall at an OU Regional Campus. I would like to hear from former, current, and future students of Ohio University Regional Campuses about their experiences, advice, and questions. What ...
  3. Good Evening, Doctor!

    As expected, the drawings have many commonalities. As some of you might imagine, the physician is an old, white, oversized, bald male wearing a lab coat and glasses, with a stethoscope around his neck. The nurse is a young, short-haired, relatively t...
  4. Good Evening, Doctor!

    Wow! "Good morning, ladies!" I'll be prepared for that one. Thanks!
  5. Good Evening, Doctor!

    Good eye, good eye! :yelclap: But seriously, I do have to explain to "machos" all the time. It's not a stereotype; it's valid experience.
  6. Hollywood's Portrayal of Male Nurses?

    Hey, man. read my opinion here: https://allnurses.com/good-evening-doctor-t337547/ Nursing is no longer a "nurturing" job; it's more scientific based now. women are generally very nurturing, which is why nurses are stereotypically female. now, y...
  7. Nurses' Spiritual Lives

    I spoke to an ER nurse about his spiritual life. He told me that he's now closer to God than before he became a nurse. He went on to explain that he found himself praying more for his patients and has even witnessed several miracles. This, in turn...
  8. VCC immunizations and health screening?

    Are you in Florida? Three things: 1) Go to the VCC website and search for "nursing handbook." You will find ALL requirements needed to enter the program, including immunizations. It will also tell you what materials you need, like a stethoscope, hem...
  9. Any guys color blind? (Girls are welcome too!)

    About 8% of the male population and about 0.5% of the female population have color vision problems. One of these is color blindness. There are three types of color blindness: 1) Red-green (most common), 2) Blue-yellow, and 3) complete absence of co...
  10. can you help me with an interview question?

    This gives you an opportunity to sell yourself. In other words, "Tell me about your strength and weaknesses." Of course, answer in light of the nursing profession. Make sure your weaknesses can be turned around and make them strengths. For exampl...
  11. Nursing Supervisor Takes a Holiday

    Davay Do: :rotfl: I remind you of the legendary Cheech Marin??? That's funny, but we looking NOTHING alike! I'm actually 6'4", 210lbs, medium built, dark skinned and light haired, and hazle eyes - I'm a "half." But thank you! That's a compliment...
  12. Who's right: the RN or the LPN?

    Here's the deal: Among the plethora of immunizations that I need, the Hep B one is giving me a headache (not literally). See, I worked at a nursing home as a CNA back in the summer of 2002 and was given the first dose of Hep B - May 27, 2002 to be ...
  13. Who's right: the RN or the LPN?

    Uh, which one?
  14. Nursing Supervisor Takes a Holiday

    Thank you for your article, Davey Do. It was very moving. As a teacher, it was always very rewarding when parents would call to express their gratitude for making a difference in the academic lives of their children, or when a supervisor praised a ...
  15. Who's right: the RN or the LPN?

    Thank you for this comment because I had not looked at it in that light. But the title lured you in to read my post, didn't it? If I would've put a title focusing more on the Hep B Series, would you have read it? I'm trying to get the correct answ...
  16. Who's right: the RN or the LPN?

    A nurse that works at the nursing home would have extensive immunization knowledge as well, because after all, almost the entire staff at a nursing home would need essential immunization. Also, the RN has more training/education than the LPN. It is...
  17. Senior RN Student w/ Jealous Husband!!!

    Wow! You're an amazing person! To experience your husband's abuse AND making it through a BSN is simply amazing. That portrays your strength and determination. If you got this far successfully, you shouldn't have any problems getting through the ...
  18. HESI Questions & Encouragement Needed!

    I'll admit that the HESI A2 Review Book was very poorly edited and confusing at times, but I'll also admit that the math and vocabulary portions of the book were helpful to me. I got a 96 on the math, 87 on the vocabulary, 98 on the writing, and a 9...
  19. watch with sweeping second hand?

    Thank you very much for the clarification, guys. I clicked on some of your links and finally found one for $40! It's expensive, but it's gonna work. What would I have done without allnurses.com??!!
  20. How am I supposed to get in with these grades?

    Listen. I got in nursing school with a GPA
  21. watch with sweeping second hand?

    Last week, I received notification that I got accepted into nursing school - seriously, a dream come true. As I read the handbook, I was left with several questions that I felt stupid calling the department and asking. One clarificaiton deals with ...
