Hi, one of my assignments for my class is to interview a nurse manager and my manager is on vacation for the week and I feel emailing her these questions would be an incovenience. I'm going to ask my Clinical Leader to help me answer these questions ...

If anyone could share their answers I would really appreciate I'm looking to decide if I want to go the managerial / administrative route in my career and while these questions were for an assignment I've completed I would love to hear others respons...

She's on vacation, hence why I talked to my Clinical Leader. My assignment is already done and turned in but I thought I would get others answers on here to further my own knowledge.

I'm currently a new RN working in Michigan, full time days. I love what I do, I love my patients, my coworkers the whole environment. But in my heart I know I can't do floor nursing forever, I have always planned to go back and to school and being ou...

That's every nursing school. Things become disorganized, messy ect. I'm not sure what you're asking the community for here? A "pep talk" of not giving up? That's for you to decide. You have several options here and you have to make the decision, you ...

Pt: Hx.: diabetes mellitus, hypertension, gout, dvt (right upper arm), recent hx. of seizures, peripheral neuropathy, stage I ulcer and left side of body is very weak Now I need a primary nursing dx based upon the patient's chronic conditions so I'm...

Wow, well sorry everyone I just realized I needed to look at the situation myself and in the end didn't need help. So this thread can be closed! Thanks

I agree that everyone needs to have "thick skin" but a lot of these comments were rude. OP you can't worry about another girl failing you need to worry about yourself and do what's best for you, when you worry about others that is when you fall behi...

Sorry I know everyone's trying to help but that isn't the direction my paper is going, but no worries I figured it out

I'm really disappointed with the posters on this site. The majority of you have offered hostile, back handed advice to OP. I agree with many of the points made throughout this discussion but there is no need to be so rude. OP if you want to go to CRN...

Thank you for all of your advice, but I'm afraid that doesn't help me I'm not writing a care plan I'm looking to write a chronic illness paper.

Well without a bachelors you are going to have a little bit of a tough time finding a position in michigan. That is just what I have seen as I am going to school for my bsn and my friends went for their associates. Many of my friends have ended up wo...

To be 100% honest with you on paper you are not competitive. Your overall GPA is at best average, your BSN and science gpa's are below average for CRNA candidates (from what I have seen). Your best bet is to wait and take some graduate classes maybe ...

Hello everyone! I'm going to be a senior this fall and my dream is to be a CRNA. I can't explain how much I love what they do. Ill be just turning 22 when I graduate and my preceptorship in the winter will be in ICU at the hospital I currently work a...

To be completely honest you need to take a second and collect yourself. TO be completely honest if you don't prepare yourself for school and stay calm you are going to fail again. Nursing school is hard but not impossible. Join a study group, see if ...

I agree with with Garrett1987. First you need to understand why are you failing these classes, and than you must score substantially higher in these courses the second time around. Unfortunately you are going to have a tougher time getting into a pro...

The only thing I would worry about is your GPA. All the information sessions and advisors I have met said they don't consider you competitive unless you have at least a 3.6 GPA (this could be very different for other schools I'm just saying what I ha...

Thank you, and I love the OR atmosphere. Being a pre-op nurse has really allowed me to see CRNA's at work. I'm so thankful for this job! I was wondering the schools I want to apply to don't require me to take the GRE due to my grades, should I do so ...

Hi all, I'm interviewing for a nurse extern position at St. Joe's and I was wondering if anyone can give me any advice, I would really appreciate it! I'm currently a BSN student with a 3.6 overall GPA and a 3.5 Nursing GPA (both constitute for honor...

I'm so sorry you hate oakland! Are you in the nursing program? I'm a senior and I admit there are things I haven't like but I've had a great experience and been given so many opportunities. If anyone is looking at Oakland I really do love it and woul...

Well thanks everyone I got the job! I focused a lot on my volunteering, my clinical experience and my GPA. I would just be confident going into the interview when I went she had told me I already had the job the interview was just a formality (=!

Hello, I'm currently a Junior II in my nursing program and will be graduating May 2015. I currently do not work at a hospital, I work a manager position in the food industry. I keep trying to get my foot in the door but it seems to be difficult right...

It has to do with the increased applicants to the traditional BSN program, they are getting more and more each year and it's becoming more and more competitive. I believe over the next several years you will see the program requirements for OU increa...

Just so everyone knows, Oakland is considering getting rid of their LPN program and their accelerated program! Just to keep everyone informed.
