  1. Mike Tyson trading places w/ a nurse on TV show tonight!

    If you watch the preview you will see he really isn't practicing. They would never let a "lay" person do something serious that would harm a person I am sure. He appears to really just be "shadowing"...
  2. the nursing identity

    Sometimes we have to step back and re-evaluate ourselves. No one is perfect. We all have flaws. I was actually one of those 4.0GPA students Whispera mentioned. I did get in first and only attempt,...
  3. the nursing identity

    You may want to go back and edit a couple things before us ordinary people recognize your flaws. I am not a grammar queen, I'm just an ordinary person - BUT if you're going to make a point to us,...
  4. Can't get hired

    Sounds like you have a lot of experience. Ever thought about going into business for yourself? Maybe visit homes and do your teachings to individuals. I'm sure there is a process to this, but I am...

  6. After the interview......

    Hello. I am in job search mode after being out of work for too long now, I'm back on the hunt. I am an avid AN search engine user, and while searching for post-interview info I found a useful post. It...
  7. make up?

    I like what this poster said. I dont wear make up, but my hair and clothes are always neat. I wear concealer occasionally (not to work) but people tend to compliment my freckles. I am multiracial, but...
  8. Who is calling my references?

    Hello. I began applying for jobs a week before I had my baby. My baby is a month old now and yesterday I had my first interview with a local hospital. This morning I had a phone interview with an...
  9. Who is calling my references?

    You know with your information floating around in "technology world" there is no way to tell who can get a hold of your information. This world wide web is great but ultimately it can be damaging,...
  10. Who is calling my references?

    Oh my! Thanks for the information. Good to know in the future. I listed all of my nursing jobs on my application. If it was non-nursing I did not include
  11. Who is calling my references?

    WHOOOOA!!! and the irony in that is, it was American Express and not Visa. (my strange sense of humor just got the best of me,
  12. Who is calling my references?

    Okay, I feel so behind in the times. It still seems odd that a company would pay another company to do this. Thank you for this information, I did not know that this was a common
  13. Who is calling my references?

    I do not even know who to call. I feel like I have filled out so many applications, anyone could have used this "background check"
  14. make up?

    Hi. I generally do not wear make-up to work (I make sure to use a great facial cleanser, which makes my skin glow. eventually make up may be a must in my life, LoL! but right now, occasional needs...
  15. Disappointed in pay

    Hello. I do not live in FL, but I imagine the cost of living is pretty low there and that ALFs do not pay very much in general. If it turns out to be a job you love, and pay raises are good, than...
  16. LPNA left on my own

    I live in MD and have never heard of this. I went to nursing school here, and by 2nd semester traditional and non traditional students blended in. Many wanted to work and called BON to see if hours...

  18. I agree with everyone here. I know its hard not to worry, but try not to. Im thinking they will let you retake the test. Congrats on your new
  19. Help in deciding to go into nursing.

    Hello fellow Navy Wife!!! I am a navy wife as well. When I first started my pre-reqs for nursing school my husband was on a ship that often went out to sea. It was very difficult, I did have to leave...
  20. need help with a question...

    Sounds like a homework question to me, but I could be wrong. Maybe the person does have poor critical thinking skills at this point, but needs to develop them. If they're still a student, than yes...
  21. fired... where can a bad nurse go to find a job?

    IDK if someone has already suggested this, but have you thought about chart review and coding? It would be an office based job. Some people love it and some people hate it. Keep your options open....
  22. need help with a question...

    I often say google it? I usually suggest looking through a book but maybe I have suggested that. IDK. Like someone said before, if a student asks a question its good to get an idea what they are...

  24. What do you see?

    If you haven't noticed by now, I like to start threads like this ever so often (sometimes they get pushed to central but that's another story, LoL.) My inspiration for this thread was an AN USER -...
  25. Will the nursing shortage ever end?
