  1. Living independently while in Nursing school, is it possible?

    flyersfan88 replied to Lena M's topic in General Students

    Id live in dorms so it cuts the expense since all of that would be covered...opt to live in a single if you dont want a roommate. Do yourself a favor and hold off on the live in boyfriend experience...

  3. How much "dirty work" have you encountered in nursing school

  6. Why do aspiring CRNAs change their goals?

    flyersfan88 replied to TU RN's topic in General Nursing

    You would be astonished as to how many of my peers have said anesthesia has to be the easiest job, that crnas just sit and stare at monitors, and have a cushy gig for a lot of money. That is why it is...

  7. Visitor filming during code

    flyersfan88 replied to Lev's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This person wasnt a family member. Just because he filmed it doesn't mean he has a case. Sounds like someone was in shock and needed someone to blame for the

  8. Clinical Instructor Dilemma

    flyersfan88 replied to Katbird2014_RN's topic in General Students

    flyersfan88 replied to VAgirl247's topic in General Students

    Id feel pretty ripped off if I had enough time to sit around worrying about nanda diagnoses every week. Ive never once had to recite any to the nurse I was working with. That aside....pen, penlight,...

  10. Nurse jobs that allow modifications?

    flyersfan88 replied to hayleyyelyah's topic in General Students

    your employer and patients won't know or care if your tattoo has meaning. I don't think it's really too much to consider getting tattoos in places they can be covered

    flyersfan88 replied to chewychipsahoy's topic in General Students

    Why would you report something like this? It's not unethical and doesn't affect anyone. Move

  12. are private school more lenient on their admission requirements?

    flyersfan88 replied to mee9mee9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. Accelerated BSN loan info. HELP!

    flyersfan88 replied to JohnsonZ's topic in General Students

    flyersfan88 replied to Mom2ballerinas's topic in General Students

    In my AND program, we get 2 weeks in between semesters, and go back January 2nd for spring semester. That'd never fly at my school. Grades are due for transcripts 2 days after finals....But our...

  17. Can't get federal aid, best private loans?

    flyersfan88 replied to Wrestler133's topic in General Students

    I qualified for federal loans for my 2nd degree, just not grants. However, I had no loans ever for my first bachelors. Fill out your FAFSA

    flyersfan88 replied to BajanCherry's topic in General Students
