  4. facebook "stalking" as a nurse?

    I don't believe our last names should be displayed on our name badges. If a patient and/or family member wants to make a complaint or positive comment about me, and need my last name, this can be...
  5. Wow. Sounds like my dream
  6. "I have a PhD, I know more than you do!"

    LOL, should we call Bill Cosby "doctor"
  7. Leaving Bedside Nursing

    Actually why I want to get out of bedside nursing. Seems that I spending more time dealing with patient issues and family dynamics. Don't mind it. But yesterday spent most of my time dealing with...

  10. Leaving Bedside Nursing

    Been doing this for almost nine years. Used to love bedside nursing and was certain that I would never leave...this is what I have always wanted to do. Now, however, I often wake up in the morning...
  11. Is an accelerated BSN worth $87K?

    Don't come here for advise if you don't want to consider it. You have been given a lot of good advice and it seems that you choose to ignore it. Take that ridiculous loan out....you will regret...
  12. Worked as a nurse in acute care for 9+ years. Have never seen a difference in the number of patients either ADN or BSN takes
  13. At my first nursing job, ADN, I was in orientation with another RN who had an accelerated BSN. She was given an extra 6 weeks of orientation, because she just couldn't get it. No disrespect to you or...
  14. I got my BSN five years after my ADN. To be honest, did not learn much in the BSN program. Got my BSN, because I saw this trend coming and was thinking I may want to be an NP. Yes, had to do research...
  15. Starting over age 40

    Depends on where you live. In my area a SNF would pay me what I made as a new grad after nine years of acute critical care
  16. Starting over age 40

    If that is your dream, go for it! I have been a nurse for nine years. I got my ADN when I was 42 and my BSN when I was 48. Do your homework on the job market in your local area. Depending on where you...
  17. I have been a nurse for 9 years and have never encountered this situation. I have experience in different areas of nursing; but mainly critical care, SDU/PCU, and telemetry. For the past three years,...
  18. Agree. Started as a BSN. Was in my junior year and had never even given a shot. I started to freak out, because I knew clinical skills are also important....Dropped out of BSN and went to another...
  19. Most has to do with Magnet status and $$$$ for the hospital...need to have so many BSN nurses...now even pushing certs which I am more than okay with me...hospital I work with pays for the classes....
  20. Stanford Rape

    "Teach people how not to rape." What a sad commentary about our society. Rape is not rocket science...it is not about sex---but violence and dominance. A well documented fact. Do your research....
  21. Stanford Rape

    We all make stupid mistakes...that does not give predators (reason why they are called this) to take advantage and commit illegal and immoral acts. As a society, we seem so driven to blame victims...
  22. Stanford Rape

    "The way to prevent rape is to teach people not to rape." What immoral planet are you living on? This comment is sicker that the "people" that troll Yahoo and make moronic
  23. Stanford Rape

    And who would have thought a degree makes you smarter. Rape is a crime of violence. Nuns wearing habits have been raped. I once had a 80 old patient who was raped in her
  24. Stanford Rape

    I also thought Yikes...an orthopedic surgeon...??? About 15 years ago a surgeon lost his license in my area for raping women under anesthesia in his office. Probably got away with it
  25. Stanford Rape

    The part that makes me angry is that the mother and father made excuses...THAT is what I believe has made everyone angry. They don't need to apologize, they didn't do it. But, they showed no...
