    Women's Right to Choose

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    This is problematic, but I’m not sure what a viable solution would be. Child support won’t deter men from impregnating women. Prevention, education, and an understanding of equal rights might. Men...

    ???? just because they’re supposed to doesn’t mean they do. https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2018/cb18-tps03.html Child support doesn’t stop pregnancies and won’t stop

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    In most cases this is 100% true. I did an online RN-BSN program, and I feel that the curriculum was severely lacking. Discussion boards that didn’t value creative thought or meaningful discussion to...

    The Nursing School to Welfare Pipeline

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    This is what I believe a BSN SHOULD be. It is not what I experienced. I feel like I did nothing more than write APA formatted papers on subjects that were chosen for me. I wish what you described is...

    Women's Right to Choose

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, who are these 45%? how old are they? are they having these abortions once a quarter, or once every 10 years? Do they already have children and can’t afford more? Even if she IS having an...

    Women's Right to Choose

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    Regardless of age restrictions or legality, people of all ages get access to drugs and alcohol. The same will happen for abortions. I’m not sure what regulation of body modification you’re...

    Women's Right to Choose

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    You can have your opinion, everyone does. I respect your argument and we DO share some things that we agree on such as that education and prevention are priority. Your opinion of whether someone else...

    Women's Right to Choose

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    This is something i think most can probably agree on ? this is what places like planned parenthood are for, but because people view it through a prism instead of a lens they think it’s an abortion...

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    Let’s keep this simple: some people don’t want to be pregnant, and your opinion doesn’t matter to them. It’s not up to you or anyone else and never should

    They are important, but clinical as we know it: popping a few pills, vitals checks, practice assessments, and reviewing charts; not conducive to learning clinical reasoning and judgment. Student...

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    I actually transferred out of my first RN-BSN program which had a clinical component. We basically served lunch trays to seniors. Any clinical component is not enough. It needs to be meaningful and...

    Women's Right to Choose

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    Agreed. With the exception of life threatening circumstances for the child or the person carrying, I think most pro-choice folks agree that late-term abortion is radical. Abortion isn't a safe or...

    Seeking abortion care once versus seeking prenatal care every few weeks for the duration of the pregnancy, pediatrician visits, time off work for child care, daycare, having to stop going to school,...

    Women's Right to Choose

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    "partial birth abortion" is a political term, not a medical one; and no one here is advocating for late term abortions. No one here is advocating for abortion at all. I'd like to know what facilities...

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to panurse9999's topic in General Nursing

    In my program I think they ONLY checked if they were APA compliant. The content of the paper was unimportant, because if it were based on content I don't know that I would have graduated

    ?‍♀️I think I'm pretty well rounded, but my resume might not necessarily suggest it. I think this is why so many nurses job hop so much. A job might be nice at first, but then you get beaten...

    I had a resume writer look at mine after I wasn't getting calls after graduating from my ADN program. I'm young, but my experience prior to becoming a nurse made me look much older. After I cut back...

    frenchtoastwaffles replied to River&MountainRN's topic in General Nursing

    2 things: there is no such thing as an abortion at 39 weeks because that fetus is viable. Labor is induced and the baby is delivered, not aborted. If the baby is not viable at 39 weeks, it is still...

    Ageism is REAL in nursing, and I'm probably only making another suggestion you've already tried- but maybe pare down on your resume and remove some experience, remove unrelated degrees, and present...

    I tried to look up the exam eligibility info on my state's website but I don't see anything about time between your degree being conferred and your test date. If I were you, I would contact your BON...

    This is where I think I’m going to start disagreeing- I don’t think paying nurses of all levels of education at the same rate have anything to do with socialization of healthcare as I don’t...

    When patients thank me, it's always for my APA skills. I'm glad my patients are confident that I can cite papers about the research of other people not related to the care I'm providing. Pharmacology,...
