   Community Colleges have long waiting lists as a weeding out system and a very small percentage of students ever make it to the top.. They make students take Anatomy and physiology for the medical...

2. Has anyone had a pt's family member take pictures of you during care?

   CareFully replied to TonyaM73's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   Some of my daughter's newborn pictures have nurses in them, but not during the performance of procedures and they seemed okay with it at the time. I agree that it wouldn't be a HIPAA violation because...

3. A Nursing Student Vents

   CareFully replied to CareFully's topic in General Students

8. Ethical Issue- Is this child abuse? Do I need to report this?

   CareFully replied to Daria5363's topic in General Nursing

   I agree with the ex-cop on this one. What happened in the UK was hearsay. Furthermore, mother-in-law issues are hardly uncommon and spousal issues are also not rare. If you did not witness domestic...

   I would actually recommend a BSN program over an ADN if you have children and here is why: The BSN programs tend to break the courses up into smaller credit hour classes. For instance, you might have...
