  1. Direct Entry CNL programs if you want to be an RN, not a CNL?

    blueshift posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am planning on applying to ABSN as well as direct-entry MSN-CNL programs. The problem with the ABSN is that I have no idea how I could pay for it, since the only aid offered to second degree student...

  2. Minot ND information

    blueshift replied to ilovemicrobiology's topic in General Nursing

    Minot, due to the Bakken Shale Formation, is one of the job epicenters of the country right now. Tons of people are moving there for work, and the city/county management has resisted attempts to...

    blueshift posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've been accepted to a nursing school that is apparently only a candidate for NLNAC accreditation (until august 2013, according to NLNAC's website) but is accredited by my state's board of nursing....

    blueshift replied to blueshift's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school is a public community college way out in the middle of the nowhere. It's my only choice unless I relocate. I'm not sure why they're only now applying for accreditation, as they've had their...

  5. Obese children...my rant

    blueshift replied to Gently.me's topic in Pediatric

    True...almost everyone knows what is and isn't healthy. There is some misunderstanding, like some people don't realize why white flour is not as good as other kinds, but everyone realizes veggies are...

  6. New Grad in South Carolina

    blueshift replied to KerriaBoo22's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    absolutely do not move to California! there are no jobs for new grads there. It's really sad that anyone would feel nervous that their name was holding them back, and I really hope that's not the case...

  7. The "Nursing Games" claims it's first victims...

    blueshift replied to Klimpys's topic in General Students

    Well, gosh...this topic is terrifying! I've always been really good with basic stats/algebra, but I'd love to start studying up on these drug calculations tests. I start nursing school in January and...

  8. I'm considering nursing, but I'm scared of "lateral violence"

    blueshift posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm particularly terrified of nursing school because I've all the horror stories I've heard...and I know school doesn't last forever, but I've also heard on-the-job horror stories too... One of my...

  9. The Money Pit

    blueshift replied to prospectivepville's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I try to avoid buying the newest edition of textbooks because you almost never need it. Often they're nearly identical, and whatever isn't covered in the book should be covered in the lectures. I took...

  10. Is Nursing for Me?

    blueshift replied to purpleorchid3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you considered either PT or OT? Prereqs for those degrees are very similar to nursing, so you could end up graduating with a bachelor's degree and the ability to go into any field you wanted to....

  11. I'm considering nursing, but I'm scared of "lateral violence"

    blueshift replied to blueshift's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Stories - plural, and it isn't just school - if so, I wouldn't be worried at all. I don't think it can be denied that stress, frustration and burnout in nursing is high. There have been extensive...
