1. What would you do?

   Mona Mona replied to xobeachbrattxo's topic in Oklahoma

   I, personally, am getting my ADN. Everyone's situation varies though. My ADN is still going to take about 4.5-5.5 years though. I have been on the waiting list since November 2004. I am taking my pre-requisite classes as I wait. I hope to get in Win...

2. Doctors who dont listen or dont care

   Mona Mona replied to chenoaspirit's topic in Safety

   Oh my! All I cay say is maybe write up your night in a non-emotional way, and keep going up the chain of command until you find someone who will listen. I am only taking my pre-req's, not even in nursing school as of yet, but this horrifies me! A...

3. *** A&P II Winter 2006 Club ***

   Mona Mona replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hmmm. I am confused reading all of these posts. Maybe it's because I am getting my ADN at a Community College? But, I am taking just plain ole' Anatomy and Physiology, period. No "I" and "II". Here is my course description: Course Description: This...

7. Job Role in Dialysis Center...I also need advise

   Mona Mona replied to Cntw82BanRN's topic in Urology

   Do you think you would like working nights? I am just taking my pre-requisites, not even in school yet, but from my past work experiences, do what your gut tells you. If you feel like you are a night owl, and can adjust to the night schedule, and lov...

   Hi, welcome to Allnurses.com. :) I am only required to take one math course for my ADN program, it's called Math for the Nursing Profession. It's basically all about ratios, drug dosage calculations, and how to find the right syringes, etc. I woul...

9. "What do you need Christmas off for? You don't have kids!" (rant)

   Mona Mona replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in General Nursing

   Wow. This thread is so enlightening.... I am taking pre-requisites for nursing right now, on the waitlist. I don't have kids yet either.... I would never expect someone to switch with me for that reason (kids) alone. I am an adult, and I know what I ...

10. Did I do the right thing? (long)

    Mona Mona replied to Sapphy's topic in General Nursing

    So, you just advised the LPN to go to the DON, and you didn't yourself? I think you did a good thing. I would have done the same in your situation. The LPN was having problems with a co-worker, and maybe should have talked to the other RN first, ho...

    Mona Mona replied to Kay28's topic in General Nursing

    I volunteered at a hospital in my area for 4 months before I even applied to nursing school, just to "make sure" it's what I wanted. ALL OF THE people I came in contact with - floor nurses, nurse managers, patient care assistants, dept. secretaries, ...

    Mona Mona replied to Mona Mona's topic in Career Support

    For now, it's an ADN. Because I don't have the money for more. :) I plan on working for a large University hospital here, and then will reimburse for tuition. Eventually, I would love a BSN, however, I don't even know if I would want to be a Nurse ...

14. I guess I'm a florist now too....

    Mona Mona replied to IloveSnoopy's topic in General Nursing

    So, is it just up to you individually to decide what to do in a situation like this? I personally would have gone after her, and handed them back, and advised her to take care of that herself, as I am a care provider, and have other patients to atte...
