  1. Finally decided to apply Chamberlain

    Great!
  2. Working while in nursing school.

  3. Huntington's Chorea HELP

    If you have to research it, I recommend looking at all the research out there and THEN forming a question. I know it's backward, but you could spend days coming up with questions just to find out...
  4. CRNA vs. RN

  5. What did those chapters
  6. RN to BSN

    That's the way it was here when I started nursing school. The trend basically became the "law." I should've gone
  7. How can a W affect me?

    I think it depends on your program. Look into how your wannabe nursing programs select their students. Some programs don't care. More selective programs might look at your entire transcript as a...
  8. RN to BSN

  9. I think you might be psyching yourself out. In my class, no one has had any sort of soul-bending crisis over spending time in a specialty they don't like. Not enjoying it doesn't necessarily equal a...
  10. Working while in nursing school.

    PRN means "as needed." So it could really apply to job...it's just the schedule they hire you for :) My friends who work PRN are required to work 2-3 days/month minimum, but can request to work as...
  11. Hospitals hiring BSN & Obamacare

    I'm graduating in 7 months. Woohoo! Looking at last year's class , the only ones working in hospitals were working in one during school and were hired that way. But most of the non- picky ones ARE...
  12. Hospitals hiring BSN & Obamacare

    I'd say no, that's highly unlikely to happen from what I've heard. If you can, get your BSN. If you can't, there's nothing wrong with getting your ADN - you might just end up working outside of a...
  13. CRNA vs. RN

  14. Working while in nursing school.

    I can't really speak to the surviving aspect of not working, since I'm married and the husband is paying the bills, but most of the people in my class who do work seem to either take jobs in hospitals...
  15. Failure of Anatomy I

    I'm so sorry to hear about your struggles. That's all really tough. I just want to encourage you to keep your head up and keep going. I failed/withdrew from multiple classes during my early college...
  16. CRNA vs. RN

    I don't really see many awesome reasons there are to be a CRNA. It's a ton of expensive schooling and a lot of work. How many people really start considering it because of a love of anesthesia??? I...
  17. Help: Nervous system (A&P)

    On Old Olympus' Treeless Top, a Fin And German Viewed Some Hops My class made hats...a super cheap hat that we divided into the different sections of the brain and decorated to represent what they...
  18. Need help and good advice.

    Maybe a nice search on indeed.com? Just randomly type in jobs and see how much they make, and then figure out how long they go to school. Also, nurses don't go to school for 2 years. They spend two to...
  19. CRNA vs. RN

    Yes, and the pay range is accurate, depending on where you live. I've never heard of anyone making $6,000 more/year bc of their bachelors degree, but that doesn't make it untrue for someone out there....
  20. CRNA vs. RN

    I think it's already been mentioned...a CRNA is a registered nurse. A register nurse with a bachelors degree and a masters or doctorate. My area is currently hanging the masters programs over to...
  21. Feeling confident!

    Whoop whoop! Congrats! All your hard work is paying
  22. Professor who is too easy??

  23. Priotizing nursing diagnoses list

    Ah, I didn't see that the pt is in a nursing home. Sometimes I forget there are sick people outside of acute care! One of the downsides of only having clinicals in
  24. Priotizing nursing diagnoses list

    I looked up your dxs in my NANDA International book and they're all there, so I'm not sure why some other books don't have them. Weird. I don't personally see a problem with your list, but I don't...
  25. Professor who is too easy??

    No you wouldn't, because you need a credit that says you passed the class.You're going to be teaching yourself massive amounts of materiel in nursing school, so I suggest you get over that...
