    African Americans as nurses.

    Is this a serious question? Along with the headache/fever thread I'm getting scared! Lol. Well, I'm sure if this was a problem I wouldn't be in nursing school now would I? This is
  5. Got kind of a crazy question here. I'm in an ADN program and plan on getting my BSN after I start working some. So in a RN-BSN program what do you do in clincals? I thought it was the same as I was...
  6. Not to my knowledge. The only bridge students we have in this area are LPN students bridging with ADN students later on but never RN-BSN. It is an different program than the traditional

    termination from nursing school

    I'm sure you have an appeal process so if you do, use it! I did and won in the end eventually. I was done wrong by a sexist instructor and I didn't get back in that semester but I'm finally back in...

    Lvn or Rn any suggetions?

    If money is an issue become a LPN, work some and save up money to become a RN or work part time while in RN school. Just a
  12. I guess I am out of the loop. Just like the "nursing shortage" discussion. Nursing is just like any other job market to me. Some places will hire new grads first b/c it's cheaper (such as a LTC...

    Is this universal or just my program?

    We had the same policy. That policy just ended Fall 2010. Before we had 3 chances to pass or we were out of the program. First semester we had to make at least a 90. Second-Fifth semester we had to...

    What are the top 5 medications YOU administer daily?

    You should google "Common NCLEX drugs" and you should find lists of commonly used drugs that are not only the NCLEX but most commonly given. Just depends on what kind of unit you're working

    Nureses and Tattoos (esp. in San Francisco area)

    Most hospitals or organizations are more lenient towards tattoos than your school. You should see what your school's policy is towards the tatoos. Here? You are required to cover them with long...

  21. Are you sure she wasn't just talking about the med exam? 1st semester we had 3 tries to get at least a 90% (which allowed you to miss 2) and starting 2nd semester you had to make a 95% or better. But...

    Negativity from Classmates

    I know exactly how you feel. I just avoid as much as possible and talk less. They can never see the positive in things. They always asked me my grades and when I tell them they b***** and moan because...
