  3. My Great Reality Check

    rn4me2be posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I checked on jobs available around here (SC) and have found out that I have picked a great career! There are tons of RN and LPN jobs available at my two small town local hospitals not to mention the...

    That's how it is around here! I hate that it is not like this for everyone,

  8. My Great Reality Check

    rn4me2be replied to rn4me2be's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OK I'll try to remove it. Just trying to up the mood. Can't be negative here without being knocked, and it seems you can't be positive either.

  9. Should smokers be admitted into the nursing program?

    rn4me2be replied to Elly Aker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We could say that everything has the potential to kill us, but I think the "most" in your quote is what puts the dangers of smoking in a separate category than the dangers of something like getting...

  10. Should smokers be admitted into the nursing program?

    rn4me2be replied to Elly Aker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree that no one is perfectly healthy, so where do you draw the line?? But I think you'd agree that eating fast food occasionally isn't deadly. Not having the perfect BMI isn't necessarily...

  11. Should smokers be admitted into the nursing program?

    rn4me2be replied to Elly Aker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do nurses teach "don't smoke because it's socially unacceptable like getting a tattoo"? No, they teach "don't smoke - it kills you". Tattoos don't kill you (fyi). It's like saying "I refuse to...

  12. Should smokers be admitted into the nursing program?

    rn4me2be replied to Elly Aker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    No one said it. Non-smokers do get a break, surprise surprise. It's just obvious. A non-smoker cannot take a "smoke" break, which is an additional break. A smoker can take a "smoke" break (after...

    rn4me2be replied to Elly Aker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not allowed to go to clinical smelling like my favorite perfume. Why am I allowed to go to clinical smelling like an ashtray (which is from a lethal addiction)? I grew up smelling like an ashtray...

    rn4me2be replied to Elly Aker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Psychtrish39: I see your point. You sound like a very kind, compassionate

  16. Should smokers be admitted into the nursing program?

    rn4me2be replied to Elly Aker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OP - I wonder the same thing. How can a nurse teach someone that smoking is unhealthy when they smoke...hmm...as well, how can an obese nurse teach someone not to be obese...I believe a nurse should...

  17. Where Do You Study???

    rn4me2be replied to WandererRNBSN's topic in General Students

    I study in my bedroom propped right up on my bed. I wish I had a better place but that's all I have. I don't like studying in public because it's too distracting (I like to people-watch). So it's...

  18. Would appreciate advice on combining pre-reqs

    rn4me2be replied to RevolutioN2013's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Where I am AP1, AP2, and micro are all to be taken in row, one after the other, not together. With your schedule, I say go for just one class but if you really want to take two, I say, ap1 and
