  1. CRNA or Other Specialty?

    LMT2BSN replied to LMT2BSN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    That's a great idea and my school offers a 30 hour double major option for BSN holders. However, in reading about forensics nursing, the career opportunities listed are 1. Sexual Assault Nurse or 2....

  2. CRNA or Other Specialty?

    LMT2BSN replied to LMT2BSN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thanks adpiRN, that makes me feel better. I'll have to investigate the quickest route to the ICU. Perhaps med/surg would be best? I was under the impression that ICU rarely takes on new grads....

  4. Do Chiropractors Hires Nurses?

    LMT2BSN replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    Totally agree with much of what you say, but not entirely with the bottom line of massage only affecting muscle. While it's not in my scope of practice to directly adjust anybody, through myofascial...

  5. Do Chiropractors Hires Nurses?

    LMT2BSN replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    It's sad how ignorant this statement is. Yes, many Chiro's abuse their patients insurance and MANY are taught what can be "theoretically achieved (in a vacuum)" and then apply that to the public. But...

    LMT2BSN replied to melisgood's topic in General Nursing

  9. Palliative Care and Euthanasia

    LMT2BSN replied to bracken's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Here is a take on euthanasia, away from the HP/patient relationship. Helps to view issues from indirect perspectives. The last lines are very powerful. Not trying to take away from the credibility of...

  10. It's kinda hard to apply those things we learn from school specially...

    LMT2BSN replied to Datu's topic in General Nursing

    I think this issue happens in a lot of professions where you learn concepts in school through study, lecture, notation, etc. It's set up so that once you actually start learning the skills and...

  12. What kind of car do you drive for those 1+ hour commutes?

    LMT2BSN replied to 2011nursetobe's topic in General Nursing

    Prius's are great however depending on what part of the country you're in, you can pick up a used civic hybrid pretty cheap. Honda's are overpriced b/c of their name but the civic hybrid is usually...

  13. The "dirty" side of nursing...

    LMT2BSN replied to jordanl's topic in General Nursing

    Has anyone vomited on the job, possibly earlier in their career? How was that handled? I'm curious as to how situations are handled when the personal emotions or reflexes come out of the nurse. oh...

  14. Help! I suck at math!

    LMT2BSN replied to Rocknurse's topic in General Nursing

    Most Statistics classes require College Algebra. If those endless formulas and math skill have escaped you they will place you in a remedial math class until you work up to the College Algebra level....

  15. Is there any place hiring new grads?

    LMT2BSN replied to cisa04's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah I remember that post too. But, I thought it was some crazy number like 260 positions available. I've also seen a recurring trend of positions available mostly throughout

    LMT2BSN replied to jordanl's topic in General Nursing

    LMT2BSN replied to hiddencatRN's topic in General Nursing

    lol. We were told, in massage school, to take stomach rumblings, drooling, burping, and passing gas as a compliment. I once had a lady (in a heavy Alabama accent) say, " ain't yall got no droolin'...

  18. Nursing as a Business?

    LMT2BSN replied to jazzy88rn's topic in General Nursing

    I have a friend who is a Massage Therapist starting up an 'enema clinic' in FL. She's pretty experienced and logical, so I believe her when she says that there is A LOT of money to be made in that...

  20. The "perfect example" model

    LMT2BSN replied to exit96's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry I can't comment on nursing yet, as I'm a pre-nursing student. However, I think this is a GREAT approach to any healthcare profession. I'm glad to hear teachers are preaching this concept. I do...
