protect from harm? you didn't read the link tricky provided, did you? in short, it debunks the "second hand smoking" myth. credible peer reviewed studies have refuted the myth for years now, but the laws are in place, anyway. you really need to read ...

well, i guess my experience is out of date, then. more credit to your more recent experience.

thanks for the link, tricky. i loved the citations. we all know the truth, but it doesn't fit some of our schemas very well. i have lived in cultures in which smoking was considered mandatory for men, and in cultures in which smoking is considered ta...

For the record, in simpler terms. smokers in this generation have been singled out to be the "out group", to be ostracised by politic and passion, in order to divert anger and change desire from more meaningful targets. this kind of diversive ploy is...

speaking as an individual who worked in past life in manufacturing management, i have to acknowledge that i have been paid to prevent unionization of employees. in manufacturing unionization of employees is a sure end to their employment. hundreds of...

speaking as an older guy who is slightly deaf in both ears as a reuslt of an earlier life in which i used to blow a lot of stuff up, i can say that what you need to do depends on your actual loss level. if you have mild loss, place yourself in the fr...

in my earlier comment i referred to a traditional BSN student, and did not include BA-BSN students, or ADN-BSN students. i stand by my remarks. they are based on what i have seen. you don't have to like them, or even read them.

be careful what you wish for. the flood of foreign nurses that began in the early 90's has been empowered by the fraudulent actions of nursing recruiters to create the illusion that nursing is an eligeable field for H1-b visas. in truth, only a limit...

let's look at it from another angle. what is the difference between a typical BSN student and a typical ADN student, and how does this predispose them to turn out? the typical BSN student is straight out of high school, a middle to high acheiver, ha...

your letter has to be your letter. it can't be mine. that being said, consider your life experience to this point, specifically in terms of the care that you or someone close to you have received from in a health care setting. if little to say on tha...

most BSN colleges will advance place an ADN, giving 33-35 credits for clinical segments of the ADN, and face value to other credits that may be pre-requisite or elective. most ADN programs will require either high school chemistry and biology with la...

BSN nurses have spent more time in indoctrination, so their thinking is more programed toward the current teaching in regard to interpersonal relations and political correctness. they are therefore less blunt when dealing with people. sometimes, in t...

i'm with sniper. he and i would rather reach out and touch someone from 800 meters.

there seem to be enuf of them here...

it should be pointed out that not all ADN students have 60 credit programs. most community colleges have 3 year programs that run closer to 90, if played correctly. some of the difference can be courses like music appreciation.

daily rider, here. sometimes wear helmet. just keep your eyes a minute ahead of you and everything will be fine. i learned to ride in china, so riding in the states is a piece of cake.

whereas big boobs are a dime a dozen, or at most $5K.

try working in the real world for awhile.

tell that to the ironworker i knew who fell 3 stories on a construction site DRT. tell that to the ironworker i knew who was hit square in the top of the head with a 6" long 1" diameter bolt that fell 8 stories DRT. tell that to the steelworker i kne...

this is also common knowledge in china.

your google-fu is weak, grasshopper. https://allnurses.com/nursing-gear/thongs-scrub-pants-291921-page4.html and, as a bonus: https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-student/dreaded-panty-line-38802-page4.html

now dave, you know better than that. policemen and nurses don't even make the top 40 in terms of most physically dangerous professions. deep sea fishermen, loggers, ironworkers, construction workers, road workers, and dozens of other professions ha...

Welcome to York. I am in Dallastown and would think your best bet for hospital care would be either York/Wellspan or York Memorial. Apply at both and wait and see. More likely you will find a spot in one of the area nursing homes right quick. Try Man...

i think the kid is way overdiagnosed/overscripted and has every right to be angry and occasionally violently expressive, but then, i'm old school. look at how he got to where he is. split parents and 5 new siblings? multiple trust objects lost in the...

Thanks for the compliment, Dave. I am just an adult nursing student intending to specialise in psych. I have seen the manifestations of many disorders in the years I spent in industry, having worked at all levels up to and including management of deg...
