  1. How did you KNOW...

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to shonniemichelle's topic in General Nursing

    I realized I was going to be a nurse when I was wait listed for dental hygiene. Didn't want to wait a year to start a program so I applied to nursing and got in. No visions of being like Flo...

  2. To RNs: Would you encourage students to get into nursing from a practical standpoint?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Nickoxp's topic in Men in Nursing

    If your heart is in it and you truly want to be a nurse then yes. I on other hand discourage my own children from nursing. I told them do anything else OT, PT, pharmacy, MD, PA, or respiratory. Nurses...

  3. How much harder is it to find a job with an ADN?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to MunoRN's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Where I work they no longer hire ADNs & the current employees have been given a deadline of when to have

  4. Bad employee evaluation review?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to sungrl01's topic in General Nursing

    Take a deep breath & shake it off. Take any criticism that may help you improve & use it. Anything else ignore. Don't even allow her to realize she has bothered you. Do your best, get...

  5. RN->BSN: Is it worth the investment at 57?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to healing touch's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    More education is never a bad thing. The question is Can you find a job in your area as a new grad ADN? In my area the answer would be

  6. Will my original GPA from first degree come back to haunt me when applying to NP?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Medic362's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Did not affect me in the least. My undergrad BSN gpa was 3.0. I rocked the interview. They were completely impressed that I worked full time with 4 kids the whole time. I was accepted to the one &...

  8. BSN-DNP Funding Sources?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Spoiled1's topic in Doctoral Nursing Degrees

    I have school loans & they don't completely cover my graduate tuition even though I am getting the max. Good thing I didn't have loans for

  9. Would you commute an hour to a job you wanted?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to nursebythesea's topic in General Nursing

    I have commuted up to 1.5 hrs each way. Never again for me. After 12 hrs especially night shift it's

  10. Jehovah's Witness nurses in the critical care unit?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to asdf88's topic in Critical Care

    I have worked with a JW nurse. We had many RNs who complained. Usually, if I took care of her blood products she would pick up something of mine. Never any

  11. You won't believe.....

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to NanikRN's topic in General Nursing

    I think this whole scenario is being blown out of proportion. I wouldn't have given a second thought to her remark if what you were working on was so involved. Truth be told she will meet the new grad...

  12. Thinking about NP school, appreciate input

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to JenniM's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    In my state there is such a shortage of mental health NPs that the state NP organization is offering scholarships for NPs to return for mental health certificates. There are usually listing in that...

  13. I regret forever not going to medical school

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to nurse2dr's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    If you truly want to be a physician then become one! Stop making excuses for why you can't and work towards that goal. Some of the best physicians I know were nurses

  14. Writing multiple times?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to loriangel14's topic in General Nursing

    Well KidRN911 I'm getting ripped up today for being vile & nasty. Why? Because I said if you have taken the test 14 times & failed then nursing isn't for you. Honestly, it doesn't hurt my...

  15. Importance of handwriting?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to rldubz's topic in General Students

    I myself have horrendous handwriting. I type everything for grad school and did in undergrad too. I printed when I had to so you will be

  16. Writing multiple times?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to loriangel14's topic in General Nursing

    I responded to that thread and was given a hard time for not rooting that person on! I would be so mortified if I failed 14 times I would never have told the world. I think that person needs to listen...

  17. took nclex 14x still failed

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Casey1765's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    RN2BeeSoon, No I did not search this thread out. It was referenced in another thread so I read it. I stand by my comments. Fourteen times and still not passing the NCLEX? This may be the OP's...

  18. Is ECPI's RN program looked down upon? Looking for input.

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to hamdog's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Honestly, if it were me I would try to go straight to a BSN program. Most facilities are moving in that direction. My hospital is no longer hiring RNs without the BSN. Those who have an ADN have been...

  19. took nclex 14x still failed

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to Casey1765's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm sorry to be another negative but if you have not passed 14 times then please find another career. Obviously, something was not retained. I would ask for another nurse if I ever thought I had one...

  20. Writing multiple times?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to loriangel14's topic in General Nursing

    Yep, I think that every time I see posts where someone has taken it more than 3 times. The NCLEX is supposed to show the minimum competence required to be a

  21. Disrespectful

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to martymoose's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I really think this sort of attitude comes from the "Nursing Shortage". Meaning that they know that does not exist and have a virtual plethora of candidates to fill your position should you no longer...

  22. Failed teas V twice...What should I do?

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to heyitsme728's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    If you have failed the TEAS test twice then maybe this isn't for you. Not being disrespectful but that is a basic test. The NCLEX can't even be compared to TEAS. I think this may be part of the reason...

  23. difference between associates and bachelors in nursing

    Palliative Care, DNP replied to kswenson's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    For my RN to BSN I did need chemistry and microbiology. I took A&P in my ADN program. I never had pathophysiology until graduate school. I have written countless papers and taken a lot of theory...
