  1. Do you feel prepared for a suicide threat?

    grownuprosie replied to grownuprosie's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for the thorough response! I guess my impression of this policy was that the RN was supposed to save the day and then everybody goes to get ice cream. (Dramatization... obviously :)) But, it...

  2. Questions regarding IV administration set.

    grownuprosie replied to dominiquekendi's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    from one student to another... the nurses don't like doing your homework for you. They are, however, usually willing to help if you tried to answer the question. I bet you would get more responses if...

  3. Applying to schools & nursing programs?

    grownuprosie replied to alva78's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends on the school. at some schools, the nursing school application is also the application for the school. Some, you do have to submit two applications, one for the school and one for the...

    grownuprosie replied to sweetsleep28's topic in General Nursing

  6. Two-minus-one pregnancy

    grownuprosie replied to Elvish's topic in Ob/Gyn

  7. Suggest a AP,psychology(prerequiste class) professor in NSCC to get 4.0?

    grownuprosie replied to lsy811's topic in Washington Nursing

    Do not take Sargetzi for A&P if you want a 4.0. He is a fantastic teacher. I honestly think i learned more from him than any other teacher, but he does not hand out 4.0s like other instructors....

  8. Rate your professors!!!

    grownuprosie replied to RangeinPlace's topic in General Students

  10. Bellevue College 2011

    grownuprosie replied to sltenbroeck's topic in Washington Nursing

    I will, but other clinical groups will not. I dont know if all classes get mondays off or if it is just fall cohort. It may be different for everyone. I know they are juggling 4 cohorts at a time with...

    grownuprosie replied to lzbth's topic in Washington Nursing

    I am sorry! That sucks! Just for the other people on the thread, SCC does have a multi faceted application process with voulenteer time, previous work experience, GPA, among others as points for...

  13. feeling frustrated by AN posts and second guessing myself

    grownuprosie replied to jlpsu's topic in General Nursing

    Keep in mind, People dont come onto the internet to say "Today was fine." They come on when they are angry or frustrated. so using this place for an index of nursing as a whole, might not be the best....

  15. LPN to RN Programs?

    grownuprosie replied to jamie1990's topic in Washington Nursing

  17. LPN to RN Programs?

    grownuprosie replied to jamie1990's topic in Washington Nursing

    I dont know of any that will allow LPN- BSN in western WA. There are a bunch of LPN-RN (1 yr) and RN-BSN(~1 1/2 yr). If you end up here, you may need to go the LPN-RN-BSN route. Good news is that with...

  24. Weirdest, funniest, grossest male teenager pt. Stories

    grownuprosie replied to Mtb97's topic in Nursing Humor

  25. Weirdest, funniest, grossest male teenager pt. Stories

    grownuprosie replied to Mtb97's topic in Nursing Humor

    The op did not say that teenaged males are the only people that are gross/weird/ funny. They are just looking for specific stories. I dont see how asking specific questions is sexist. What about...
