  1. 16.50 Starting Wage for a Grad Nurse???? Oh No! Say it Ain't So.....

    chattypattyCRNA2B posted a topic in General Nursing

    I was having a conversation with my sister-n-law who graduated in May 2004 from UMC. She told me that she talked to some of her friends who graduated this year and they were getting jobs that only...

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to CametoitlateTexan's topic in General Nursing

    I knew eventually someone was going to say something offend. It was just inevitable....Yet again another due to be closed thread because of an ignorant remark. I guess white folks don't need lotion,...

  3. African American Care

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to CametoitlateTexan's topic in General Nursing

    I hated this part of the nursing curriculum....I know a lot of it may be valid, but it makes so many generalizations that just can not be applied to everyone in a particular group. I'm an...

  5. 16.50 Starting Wage for a Grad Nurse???? Oh No! Say it Ain't So.....

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to chattypattyCRNA2B's topic in General Nursing

    You've got to be kidding.... and they only want to start RNs off with 16.50??? Ridiculous! St Dom is the same starting pay rate as well and from what I've heard UMC is the same way. A student at...

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to chattypattyCRNA2B's topic in General Nursing

    More like 700-1100 now. You may be able to find a place for 500.00 now, but it will most likely be in the ghetto and I don't think anyone who could afford it would want to live in those

    The Baptist Hospital visited our school a few weeks ago and the flyer they passed out to all the students listed 16.50 per hour to nursing graduates. They did have other ways listed to increase that...

  8. Working in Mississippi

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to PedsNurse07's topic in General Nursing

    A CRNA can perform anesthesia, but they are still considered to be under the direction of an anesthesiologist; although from what I hear it is not that much. You are able to have much more autonomy...

  9. Working in Mississippi

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to PedsNurse07's topic in General Nursing

    I think St. Dominic is trying to change their image now. They started a campaign some time ago about their new (or updated) maternity ward. I heard that they don't do tubal ligations though. I...

  12. Is anyone near or in the path of Katrina?

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to Monica RN,BSN's topic in General Nursing

    I live in Mississippi, so I'm in the direct path of the hurricane. The hurricane has moved a little bit to the east so it will be (so the meterologist says) a little easier (whatever that means....)...

  14. What are the item(s) you need most for nursing school?

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to rn2be2006's topic in General Students

    Since the pages are loose leaf do you have a problem keeping them from tearing up easily? I guess this is not that important if you can still see the info on them. That's a very good idea! Do you...

  15. should this girl pass nursing school?

    chattypattyCRNA2B replied to mommymandy's topic in General Students

    I totally agree! She could have been nervous and out of nervousness drew a blank and couldn't remember something. You never know. If she passes the NCLEX then she's capable. Let her have the...

    Sounds like a good plan. You're still very young. Don't worry about the time you think you've wasted. You'll be about 28 or 29 when you get out. I'm 30 and will be 32 when I finish! So I'm the old...
