  2. What experience will I need for pediatrics?

    ^Hm, for some reason I was thinking that it would breach patient confidentiality, especially since they're minors. I thought I had read it somewhere, but I must have misread it. I am glad that there...
  3. What experience will I need for pediatrics?

  7. What kind of power does a NP have?

    Thanks for your reply. Great answer. Perhaps I shouldn't have used the term "power", but I meant it in the sense of how/where they place in the hospital (roles, duties, responsibilities, etc.), as...
  8. So I know that the NP is under the doctor, in terms of "power", but what if the two have conflicting opinions about diagnosing/treating patients? Does the doctor really overpower the NP, regardless?...

  11. How likely is to sue nurses?

    Oh right, malpractice insurance. Forgot about that. ~ When someone sues the hospital, about how many cases are successful? Does anyone know a recent statistic? I am just
  12. Do you have to work everywhere in the hospital first?

    Sure, you can report the imaginary school that I got admitted to. I am a pre-nursing student, and wanted to ask this question in this section to read what actual nurses have to say. I was reading...
  13. Do you have to work everywhere in the hospital first?

    How do nurses get the positions of the 'floor nurse', 'charge nurse', 'nurse manager, 'Chief Nursing Officer'? Is it based on how many years you've been working in the

    What do you mean by "drug abuse/diversion occurrences"? Thanks for replying
  15. How likely is to sue nurses?

    Well what if the nurse did it accidentally, and not intentionally? That seems like a lot of pressure for the nurses then. I am not saying that nurses should be careless, but sometimes miscommunication...
  16. Is this a 'safe' list?

  17. Online Programs A Scam?

  19. Would this look bad?

    Thank you all for the replies! So should I take ALL of the pre-req's at a community college, or can I use the chemistry courses I took as an undergrad? Would it be best just to take everything at a...
  20. Would this look bad?

    I am planning to apply to an ABSN/AMSN program, so I would have already received a college degree. If I took my pre-req's at a community college, instead of the college that I am in right now, would...
  21. Would this look bad?

    What do they mean by A&P "I and II"? My university right now only offers one class on Anatomy, and a separate class on Systematic Physiology. They don't offer any other classes besides these two....
  22. Would this look bad?

    So will they average my undergrad. GPA with my community college GPA then? (for the overall
  23. BSN versus ADN

    Will I have a higher chance of getting a better job if I do a BSN? I'm trying to see which program I should do. Will both lead to a RN? What's the difference? Thank
  24. Do any of the nursing programs look at high school transcipts? Would I be able to bring up my very high GPA (3.9/4.0), and the fact that I received my International Baccalaureate diploma? (Not to...
  25. Question about waitlists...

    If you get on the wait-list for a program, ((as an alternative let's say, and DON'T know which number you are)), would it be best to just move onto a different school? Could you re-apply to that...
