  1. Hinds ADN Fall 2011

    Anyone starting in august for the class of 2013?
  2. Hinds ADN Fall 2011

    I just finished first semester. It was though, and disorganized, but I got out with a B. Healthy future I haven't forgotten about you...ill email you some stuff to look over during the holidays.
  3. Do you still hold doors for women?

    It's just good manners. Hold the door until somone else grabs it.
  4. Was nursing school fun?

    The best way to describe nursing school is that it's not HARD, but it is ALOT. There is ALOT of stuff (necessary and not) that they make you do. There are fun days and suck days. The theory part (lectures and tests) are 80% suck and 20% fun. Clinical...
  5. Hinds ADN Fall 2011

    Lol. No I ment class of 2013 as in graduating in 2013. I replied to your other post also. Msg me if you need anything or have any questions...good luck!
  6. What agency do you work for if you don't mind me asking. If you are working 12-14 hr days and being efficient with your time then the other nurses may be taking short cuts and not taking great care with thier work or charting. Are they on a per vi...
  7. Not sure how much has changed in the last couple of years, but I use to work for a medical solutions company and lots of nursing visits per episode were a bad thing. I assume nurses get paid per visit like therapy does, and more visits equals more m...
  8. Fired - what do you think...

    Not necessarily true about the "at-will" employment state. I know of several people who have been fired and even quit under duress and recieved unemployment benefits. If you never recieved benefits in an a "at-will" state, then what would be the po...
  9. LSU vs. WILLIAM CAREY

    Obviously LSU will be cheaper. Even if paying out of state tuition. William Carey is a private university and will hence be very expensive. Also, you will be able to network better with a degree from LSU as opposed to WC.
  10. Male nurses hired faster?

    I've heard there is a "glass elevaltor" for male nurses. My question is, do you think its easier for a new grad MALE NURSE to find a job that a female one? Also, I know that nurses can be very agressive with new nurses on a unit, does a MALE NURSE ...
  11. What Is It About The Number "Ten" and Dosage Errors?

    med dosage erroros scare the crap out of me. I'm just a student, but everyone talks like they are very common and SERIOUS when they happen. What causes this? Is it as simple as not checking and double checking the meds you're giving? Is it transc...
  12. A Kind Act....

    Our church promoted this during christmas time one year in Franklin, TN.....One instance started at Starbucks and 34 people later the streak of paying for the guy behind me finally ended....the world needs more of this!
  13. Married Male Nursing Students

    I'm married (9 years) two kids, and my wife can be a very jealous person....yet she has been nothing but supportive of my efforts to return to school, even though she knows there will be lots of young girls all around me. I think that by now either ...
  14. resp therapy vs RN

    Thanks for all the info and advice I chose nursing. All the info posted here was very helpful.
  15. What pay are nurses making these days?

    Your night time weekend diff is almost as much as minimum wage was just a couple years ago. WOW
  16. The rumor and perception is that being a male you have a grater chance of being accepted to nusing school. I'll tell you that at my local public BSN program that is not true. I know 6 guys taking pre reqs with me. None of us got in. Four girls we...
  17. OK we get it STUD, you're straight

    I don't have a problem with "Male Nurse"....I don't care for "Murse" because that is also the short way to say man purse. I think the outside preception is that if your a male nurse something must be wrong with you. Obviously when posting on this for...
  18. resp therapy vs RN

    I have to decide by Friday May 6th on either the RT or ADN program. I was accepted by both and will be dropped from whichever one I don't enroll in classes for. I am SO TORN on which one to choose. I like both equally, both having lots of pros (a...
  19. Male nurses hired faster?

    Nothing wrong with "a little" chip on the shoulder every now and then. It can be a valuable motivating factor. It is a problem, however, when you allow that chip to "remain" on your shoulder, and allow it to create prejudice towards others and either...
  20. Work load question.

    In nursing, are you ever sent home because it's slow? If you are full time, are you ever scheduled less than full time hours because of the patient load? If this is true, is it also true for other departments in the hospital (like respiratory)?
  21. Male nurses hired faster?

    I just want to say thank you for twisting every single post I've submitted here....... God bless.
  22. Male nurses hired faster?

    I feel like I got emotional answers from some...pi$$ed off that I even asked.....you included. Maybe thats their honest feeling, but it is in no way helpful or productive.
  23. Male nurses hired faster?

    ..............and that's why 99% of all sales reps are physically attractive, which is probably why ,most all are so self absorbed. Have you ever noticed most drug reps are attractive females.......why do you think that is......who are the DRUG REPS ...
  24. Male nurses hired faster?

    I worked in medical sales for 12 years which is male dominated...if you called the majority of them shovanistic, elitist, and self absorbed.......you'd be right.
  25. Male nurses hired faster?

    I realize pay is not always equal, and thats not fair. I don't want any "special" treatment based on my sex, I just want to go where there would be a better likely hood of being hired. I having shadowed RN but I have shadowed RT. My origional plan ...
