  1. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    CloudySky replied to chuckster's topic in Ohio University

    I've just spent several hours reading all of these informative posts about OU and other BSN completion programs. I still haven't decided on a RN - BSN program but I wanted to thank all the AN members...

  2. Best online RN to BSN program....CHEAP?

    CloudySky replied to TonyaM73's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Good price. I was sold on Thomas Edison at $442. per credit hour (for RN - BSN). With 28 hrs to do their BSN completion that would cost me about $12,3376 tuition. Thanks for the tip on fort hayes...

  3. Nursing School Essay-Peer Edit/Critique

    CloudySky replied to jiwonkim89's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Sad. OP, it's supposed to be your own work and your own

  4. Do you hate doctors?

    CloudySky replied to snickerdoodle17_1's topic in General Students

    If you're not a troll then like someone said you seem immature for your age. In one previous post you hate nursing, you hate the medical field and are only in NS because your Mother said you can...

  5. Your one stop for all the most popular pressing questions on allnurses!

    CloudySky replied to NeoPediRN's topic in General Nursing

    That's true. He says he was the only male to get an A in his A&P I class. But from his posting hx sounds like he is a student or new RN who wants to be a CRNA. .....just say no to

  6. Attention Nurses....

    CloudySky replied to jesskidding's topic in General Nursing

    OP, If Les and others are honest enough to say they are skeptical it does not mean they aren't good folk. Nurses are trained to be critical thinkers. To be totally honest with you the first thing...

  7. Missing meds & I'm getting the blame

    CloudySky replied to ForeverMoving's topic in General Nursing

    Good point. Why did they wait then accuse OP? If I understand it this hasn't gone to the bon yet.... Probably because they can't prove OP took the meds. Because OP didn't take

  8. MORAL DILEMA

    CloudySky replied to TonyaM73's topic in General Nursing

    You did the right thing

  9. why do teachers turn a blind eye to cheating??

    CloudySky replied to catz123's topic in General Nursing

    Quote CloudySky- Most times my close friends and I would hear of the questions that the students knew about AFTER the test. I was not the only one who felt it was unfair to the students who who...

  10. why do teachers turn a blind eye to cheating??

    CloudySky replied to catz123's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not upset. And many use bold on forums to make a quick point of what they are stressing. I guess I didn't give enough detail b/c I don't have much time to post on forums. I'll take time out here...

  11. why do teachers turn a blind eye to cheating??

    CloudySky replied to catz123's topic in General Nursing

    Read again and don't try to twist my words this time. I did NOT take questions and use them "throughout" school. I was upset as I knew it was hurting some students who were not passing. As soon as...

  12. why do teachers turn a blind eye to cheating??

    CloudySky replied to catz123's topic in General Nursing

    I never had sour grapes due to lack of connections. Nor was I ever in any danger of failing ANY test throughout nursing school. The reason I knew this study group had an unfair advantage over some...

  13. why do teachers turn a blind eye to cheating??

    CloudySky replied to catz123's topic in General Nursing

    Agree with the others. I absolutely would turn the test into an instructor. I received my degree from a small private Catholic nursing college that stressed ethics. There was one guy who started...

  14. Just wondering....

    CloudySky replied to SBarn's topic in General Nursing

    You are usually mandated to work if there is severe bad weather. Many times I've been mandated to report to work during a storm and told that we will bee on lock down. I work nights and usually they...

  15. NCSBN commercial

    CloudySky replied to netglow's topic in General Nursing

    yeah most facilities now subscribe to the national data banks so they get updated disciplinary info on all their nurses. but i agree that it's wrong that someone who makes a mistake who isn't...

  16. NCSBN commercial

    CloudySky replied to netglow's topic in General Nursing

    I've always felt that a part of the problem is that nurses and CNA's are told that we are "MANDATED to report" any thing we see other nurses do that we thing is not up to standard. So some of the...

  17. Older nurses taking forever to computer chart

    CloudySky replied to Giga's topic in General Nursing

    Right. Seems Giga knows everything and harshly judges everyone "older" than her. Yet Giga wants older nurses to teach her things and gets angry if said old nurses want to chart thoroughly. I'd...

  18. Older nurses taking forever to computer chart

    CloudySky replied to Giga's topic in General Nursing

    I seriously doubt that you with your attitude are doing ANY work for these "older" nurses. btw The baby boomers invented computers. Boomers used computers before Windows. Well before all computer...

  19. I'm thinking about dropping out of nursing school...?

    CloudySky replied to tatempole's topic in General Nursing

    You didn't mention that we practice in fear of losing our licenses and that we our decisions and actions are scrutinized and second guessed by EVERYONE from equal to subordinate or superior. Yes...

  20. For those a BSN or MSN acquired online, did you face discrimination when job hunting

    CloudySky replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in General Nursing

    My Aunt has been a retired nursing instructor for the last 3 years. Last year she decided to look into going back to teaching nursing... but strictly part-time as she has a back injury. She sent her...

  21. Would you work as a CNA or LVN if you could not find work as an RN?

    CloudySky replied to indigonurse's topic in Nursing Career

    In my state it is fine for an RN to work as a CNA. People have bills and you do what you have to. Nursing homes will often put on free CNA classes where you can get certified if that is

  22. Volunteering?

    CloudySky replied to BigB_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I've been volunteering at a hospice while looking for work as an RN. I don't function as an RN in the hospice-just do personal care stuff. But at least volunteering in a medical setting it...

  23. Finally understand the Facebook no-no's

    CloudySky replied to raebabelvn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Getting on fb is never just 'sitting in front of the computer for a few minutes'. I deleted my account because it's a total time suck. imo She posted her status so that others would see it and...

  24. It seems like floaters are in high demand?

    CloudySky replied to jmeng's topic in General Nursing

    Congrats. But I don't think floaters in in high demand. It sounds like you have a lot of experience 4 years in ICU and medical/surgical and step down so that's probably why they wanted

  25. For new grads looking for their first job

    CloudySky replied to tryharder's topic in General Nursing

    If these posters are what you call "mean" you might not be ready for all the 'not so nice' treatment you get from management, patients, doctors and staff of all departments you encounter daily as an...
