Starting Over...

This is my second time taking Anatomy 1 The first time I got a D and it looks like I'm headed in the same direction the second time around. I understand the material. My downfall is that I had personal things happen in my life that affected my grad...

It's too late for me to withdraw. My final is tomorrow but I need a B to pull off a C and not sure I can do that My downfall is I let people affect me- My first test I did great and got a B, my professor constantly brags about how only 25% pass his...

More times than I wish to count, I have spent over an hour in traffic just to get to a job that was 20 mins away. If took me an hour to get to my dream job, I would rather do that versus sitting an hour going no where.

Hmmmnnn.... The best advise I can give would be to still seek out as many scholarships as possible in addition to the student loans. Communication is always key- in the event one loses a job or cannot find a job once the 6 month grace period is ...

Hey guys! I finally decided to go for it and start the process for nursing school. I'm going part time since I can't give up my full time job just yet- lots of bills to pay, single mom. I'm on the accelerated track for BSN but it looks like I will h...

Anyone?

I'm not judging Jenin for her choice to use ECT. As I formally stated, I won't knock her for trying it. Yes I am gritting my teeth as I say that because I am concerned about the long term effects As regards to the other methods that I suggested, I...

Three simple ways to quit 1)Throw up in the middle finger and let the index finger follow and yell out " Deuces!!!! I quit"" This method not recommend and carries a high risk of bridge burning 2) Submit a letter of resignation giving two weeks no...

Worst case scenarios if you don't get a nursing job: 1) you will have to get a job outside of nursing (temporarily) 2) you will become a pharmaceutical sales rep making tons of money but will always have to meet a higher quota from the previous mont...

the tone in your comment implied that i had deserved it. that is what ticked me off because as a kid, i was bullied a lot!!!! i know for a fact, that i did not deserve the treatment nor did i feel as if my bullies didn't think they were making my li...

hmmmnn.........Interesting.... what are the long term side-effects? You stated you had muscle soreness such as in the jaw, neck, back, legs. That concerns me. Have you researched the long term effects? Also, have you considered chiropractic care? ...

50K for BSN? Where the heck are you going to school!?!? I'm not trying to sound rude but there are other options that will cost way less and will allow you the ability to become an RN I'm in a similar boat as you in terms of going back to school a...

ALOL!!!!

Okay....this may be in bad taste and I apologize but I have to ask.... Have you ever witnessed an incident where the patient's hair on their head stood straight up after administering ECT which I will affectionately refer to as shock treatment?

I'm trying to keep an open mind but the picture that keeps popping up in my head is shock treatment similar to the type administered in the movie Ghost Busters

nobody deserves to be treated badly ...unless of course that nobody is you

I'm not a nurse yet but I think the sweetest revenge you could ever give someone that treated you horribly in your past and now you are their nurse is to give them the best possible care that you would give anyone. I mean, really go the extra mile t...

I have a degree in psych so I feel confident that I can contribute to this as well even though I am not quite a nurse yet. From what you posted, I cannot see why you feel you would get suspended, fired, written up etc.... There was a situation, you c...

"...Electroconvulsive Therapy....?" Look up fainting in Webster's Unabridged dictionary and you will surely find my picture ...And just went I thought psych nursing was for me...I recant

Hello Everyone, I am making a career change into the nursing field. Right now I have great job with benefits but the option to further my career does not exist unless I pursue an MBA which does not interest me. I know you are probably thinking tha...

It so hard to decipher what my world would be like if I become a nurse This site has a plethora of information so it has been great thus far for research. On the other hand, the information about not being able to eat, pee, find a job, take a break, ...

I'm not in nursing school yet but i will switch into it very soon. I know some male nurses and they love it!!!! They go in, do the work, and go home. They stay out of the "drama" that goes on in most female dominated professions. Lord, pray for me....

that sucks!!! I understand that you have to take care of the patient but I will be honest and say that there will not be a lot of care going on if I can't take a pee or feed my growling stomach. Can I wait to take a break? Of course I can. Can I no...

Hard to get time off you are entitled to???? WOW! That right there makes it hard to leave my job. The pay is decent, the benefits are great, and I always get off whenever I want off. No questions asked , I get it off. Also, I get a lunch break and...

I think I'll try that, getting a job while in school
