  1. Nursing School with a Disability

    Brannray replied to NightOwlGirl's topic in General Students

    I was diagnosed with MS at the age of 18, so I have been battling with that while in school. There are days that I don't think I can go, but my daughter *my inspiration* helps me to go on! So, when...

    Brannray replied to FutureC.N.A's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

  4. job opportunities with neuro problems?

    Brannray replied to lockheart678's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Possibly a position in BHI or a small unit somewhere where most of what you need to do is observe. I know it would be hard, since you're so used to OR, but I have MS too and it does get really hard to...

  5. Is there always that one nurse.....?

    Brannray replied to Queen2u's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Brannray replied to Missymis's topic in General Nursing

  7. Why is it called "RN to BSN" - not "ADN to BSN"?

    Brannray replied to mclennan's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    No, they prob wouldn't! They still wouldn't get it!!! If you're not in nursing, you won't ever get it!! Unless you were raised around it!! Then again, of you're raised around it you're not the open...

  8. Why is it called "RN to BSN" - not "ADN to BSN"?

  9. CNA Average Hourly Pay/Salary

    Brannray replied to MVitiello's topic in General Nursing

    Brannray replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in General Students

  13. The "one thing"

    Brannray replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in General Students

    During clinical's last semester *first clinicals* I was TERRIFIED I was going to have to record and report phlegm!!! However I lucked out then, and didn't have to.... At some point in my future...

  14. I'm going to NS, why has your attitude changed toward me???

    Brannray replied to niqua8604's topic in General Students

    It hasn't been a "work" thing for me!! It's been a friend thing for me in a couple cases! Idk if it's because I'm doing something that they couldn't/didn't think they could do or what!! You would...

  15. Why? Why do people act like that?

    Brannray replied to mkearns724's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I was actually going to say basically the same thing!! While working why talk about other nurses/CNA's, talk about your personal life, or curse? It's just not ethical and just rude really!!! I know...
