  4. Community/ Public Health Nursing in Ontario

    Ashke replied to samrusrn's topic in General Students

    Hi! What is turning you off about becoming an NP? Is it the courses? Is it the working environment? You said that you always wanted to be an MD but that this is no longer possible. What makes you say...

  7. MS in Nursing vs. MSN- What's the difference?

    Ashke replied to xInspiredx's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Ashke replied to mscor22's topic in General Nursing

  9. I don't want to work in a nursing home...

    Ashke replied to ProudStudent's topic in General Students

  15. Male Chiropractor considering nursing...advice please :)

    Ashke replied to NP/PA?'s topic in Nursing Career

    Well it is probably the 'fastest growing profession' but what they fail to tell you is that it is growing in terms of the number of professionals being pumped out by the schools; in terms of the...

    Ashke replied to Beautifulvirgo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To address another part of the OP's question, I would imagine that nurses do hang out socially so as to reinforce positive working relationships. Nursing is a stressful job, and it is nice to do fun...

  21. Is dating or flirting with an another nurse or patient is acceptable?

    Ashke replied to Beautifulvirgo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Bear in mind, also, that having such a thing on your record in one profession will likely get you banned from ALL health care professions in the future; so don't think you can be deregulated in...

    Ashke replied to Beautifulvirgo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
