  1. New Grad Cover Letter and Resume

    lub dub replied to nurse_starlight's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Talking about "the nursing process" in the second sentence of a cover letter is not a good thing. In the next sentence, you provide a list of "requirements for this position". That is also not a good...

  2. What to include - need advice

    lub dub replied to flyakite80's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    If you are applying for a nursing position, then I would submit a resume with just the nursing experience. If you are putting together a curriculum vitae, then I would include the secretary

  3. Job interview

    lub dub replied to mineSgold's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I'm going to respectfully disagree here. As someone who has been in an interviewer position, the interviewee really should ask at least something at the end of the interview. Otherwise, they are...

    lub dub replied to fakenurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    While it is true that there may not be widespread anti-intellectualism in nursing, that way of thinking definitely has its fans here at

  5. Anti-Intellectualism in Nursing

    lub dub replied to fakenurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    No need to apologize, withasmilelpn. Asking for evidence rather than opinion was directed at whomever wrote the article (not that they are reading this) or anyone else who substitutes opinion for...

    Nice!

  7. Anti-Intellectualism in Nursing

    lub dub replied to fakenurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    First of all, you have included two links in your post, but they are to the same article. And that is the article that, as you put it, "states interestingly enough that there is no definitive research...

  8. Thinking about becoming a nurse

    lub dub replied to SeattleMan's topic in Men in Nursing

    There are no associate degree online nursing programs that I am aware of. You'll have to go "face-to-face" for your first nursing

  11. Vent: suspended for not charting on time

    lub dub replied to hopesgramcracker's topic in Patient Medications

    This seems like a very harsh penalty for not charting a medication. Is there more to this story? Have there been other work-related issues in the past that have put this nurse on the manager's

  12. Anti-Intellectualism in Nursing

    lub dub replied to fakenurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    For some reason, there seems to be a strong "anti-intellectualism" following on this site. Entire threads have been dedicated to the merits of not getting your BSN. As I've stated elsewhere here, this...

  14. Are BSN nurses smarter than ADN nurses?

    lub dub replied to elpnla's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    All of the threads that elpnla has started are basically anti-BSN. Titles include "RN-BSN SCAM" and "What can ADN nurses achieve with a BSN other than accumulating more debts?" I think elpnla has...

  15. Are BSN nurses smarter than ADN nurses?

    lub dub replied to elpnla's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Don't worry, Tiffy, I get it. This is another "anti-BSN" thread. And I agree, it is getting

  16. Are Academic Advisors Trustworthy

    lub dub replied to elpnla's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    This strikes me as a generalization. The academic advisors you have encountered may be like this. They are not all like this. It's hot outside today where I am. That does not mean that it's hot...

  17. Are BSN nurses smarter than ADN nurses?

    lub dub replied to elpnla's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I don't understand this at all. Please explain. I have a doctorate in nursing, & it had nothing to do with the media, or "greedy schools". It had to do with my desire to teach in a BSN program. (I...

    Does your facility have an Employee Assistance Program? These programs offer free counselling to employees for situations just like you have described. I urge you to look into that. Please let us know...

  20. Does your hospital require color coded scrubs?

    lub dub replied to Loo17's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Please look up the word "uniform" in the dictionary. As an adjective, it means "never changing or varying". As a noun it means "an outfit that distinguishes the wearer as belonging to a particular...

  21. Does your hospital require color coded scrubs?

    lub dub replied to Loo17's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    "I, like many of my coworkers, am fine with the required colors but am upset that I have to use my own money to buy the scrubs and can not even buy what fits me best." Attorneys must wear suits to...

    That's why 12 hour shifts are the answer. You cannot to a double

  23. why nursing is a mess. three simple facts

    lub dub replied to chillnurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    lub dub replied to chillnurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Explorereb96, please think back to your first job as "a healthcare ANYTHING", and kindly cut this "brand new BSN" some slack. Yes, you, as an LPN, know more than this "brand new BSN". I get it. No one...

  25. Why I think L&D nursing really is best and hardest

    lub dub replied to lovemyjoblandd's topic in Ob/Gyn

    While it may be true that "one cannot simply float and perform" on L & D, the same can be said for ICU, ED, open heart units, etc., etc., etc. Plus, last time I checked, childbirth is not an...
