    grownuprosie replied to ShiloWelch's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I wish i could give you 100 likes for posting that link. Everyone should have to review it before posting to this board. What a valuable resource!

  2. Starting Nursing school with a criminal record!?

    grownuprosie replied to FranciscoMireles's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Having a criminal record does not absolutely keep you from sitting for the NCLEX or getting into nursing school. Many factors are involved. it depends on the infraction, when it happened, and what you...

  4. Could I fail because of this? can't be that bad...

    grownuprosie replied to mursetudent25's topic in General Students

    Isnt that what you asked in the first place? You just answered your own question. If objectively, you met the requirements for the course, then you will pass. What I am saying is that passing does not...

  5. Could I fail because of this? can't be that bad...

    grownuprosie replied to mursetudent25's topic in General Students

    Up until this line, you were still above water. So, she conceded to your request, then you followed it up with questioning her further? I dont know if it will fail you. That depends on your schools...

  6. Feeling really down in the dumps and friend-less in nursing school...advice needed

    grownuprosie replied to willow298's topic in General Students

    thank you. I think it is interesting that only one person suggested that maybe looking inward might be helpful. Nursing school is training pants for real life. If you cannot get along there, will you...

  7. O2 supplement

    grownuprosie replied to ctran's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I wonder if what she is getting at is, what is the cause of the decreased tissue perfusion? I don't have supplemental O2, but I am perfusing just fine. What is the difference between me and them. What...

  8. Nursing Students That Are Dating

    grownuprosie replied to ffrraanncciiss's topic in General Students

    essentially, this is a long distance relationship. You are a committed college boyfriend to continue in this scenario. a few things might help though. would she be willing to share a google calendar...

  9. Siblings sharing a room

    grownuprosie replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in LTC: Directors, Assistant

    1) Assuming your implication about your perception is true, Nurses are not police. It is not in the nursing scope of practice to enforce laws except for certain mandatory reporting situations. Unless...

  10. Unbelievable exam question

    grownuprosie replied to metal_m0nk's topic in General Students

    the OP stated that this was not the actual question, but an illustrative

  11. Please tell me Im not being Dramatic!

    grownuprosie replied to RN_by_day's topic in General Nursing

    I work at an outpatient clinic and will be graduating this spring. It depends on the day whether or not I will have a job when I graduate. There is no gaurantee that they will need an RN. They also...

  12. Are clinicals flexible?

    grownuprosie replied to mee9mee9's topic in General Students

    Oh, and a classmate of mine figured out that a cheap hotel near the far away hospitals is cheaper than a cab. so she takes the bus there the night before, sleeps, goes to clinical the next day then...

  13. Refusing to dissect in A&P or Microbiology?

    grownuprosie replied to joel.mercado's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A few people have said that the money should be going to pet over population prevention and not to purchasing animals to disect. I really do not see what you are getting at here. The schools, which...

  14. Male student dilemma?

    grownuprosie replied to jumper44's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I am a lady, so my advice may not be relevent. here goes though: I went to the first day of class in my usual attire: shorts, neon tights and an ironic t-shirt with my hair spiked up. All of the...

  15. Scholarships for male nursing students?

    grownuprosie replied to jglover4168's topic in Male Nursing Students

    actually, the womens center at many schools do offer women only scholarships. you should check out your schools options. Mine had "Women in math", "Women in computer science", "Women in [insert...

  16. How to take the LPN/LVN exam while still in RN school

    grownuprosie replied to djncrew's topic in General Students

    check with your school. Some are structured such that you are capable of testing out as an LVN after the first year. There is a school in my area that does that. My school however, does not. It has to...

  17. Are clinicals flexible?

    grownuprosie replied to mee9mee9's topic in General Students

    i did not see this mentioned before, so i will chime in. What about a cab? it would be much cheaper than buying a car if that is the only thing you are using it for. For me anyway, my clinicals have...

  18. Are you Smart enough to be a Nurse?

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

    This is going to sound cynical, but that means less competition for you when you apply. If they are thinking of finding a new major because nursing requires hard work, maybe nursing is not for

  19. Allowing Corpsman to Become Nurses

    grownuprosie replied to Asystole RN's topic in Government, Military

    If you are going to quote our president, please be accurate. your "quote" is no where near the actual text or tone of that part of the debate. Regardless of what you think he meant, we can at least be...

  20. Need advice on school staff member sharing my personal situation with other students

    grownuprosie replied to Kaysmom8's topic in General Students

    I just wanted to add one more thing. There is a student in my class that uses the testing center for exams. I can honestly say that after a year and a half in class with her not a single student has...

  21. Need advice on school staff member sharing my personal situation with other students

    grownuprosie replied to Kaysmom8's topic in General Students

    I think the fact that the student came to you directly indicates that she may need help with the same thing. If all she wanted to do was gossip, she would have told all of your classmates not email...

  22. So much for address taken into consideration

    grownuprosie replied to LCinTraining's topic in General Students

    I know what some people will laugh at what I am about to suggest, but if you cannot afford a hotel, what about camping in your car? You could do any after clinical paperwork at a local library or...

  23. Are nurses blue or white collar workers?

    grownuprosie replied to digitiminimi's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I did not write the definitions, just relayed them. The question was, are they white collar or blue collar. By definition, they are blue collar. Are they professionals? Absolutely. But that is a...

  24. SO mad...and not sure I should be.

    grownuprosie replied to AngelfireRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    How dare we decide it is our right to feel? Last I checked, everyone has the right to feel whatever they want. Just because you disagree, does not mean that our "feelings" are any less valid than...

  25. SO mad...and not sure I should be.

    grownuprosie replied to AngelfireRN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Of course she did not care to announce it! You made a pregnant woman talk about her termination in the lobby? I don't care if she is a drug seeker or not, discussions like that should NOT be within...
