  1. LPN to BSN-Indiana State/College Network

    Hi everyone! I am wondering if anyone has gone through this program or heard about it! It sounds really good...but I would love to hear from people who've done it! Thanks!
  2. med error at vet's office

    Oh my gosh! I would of flipped!!! I would say something to someone...
  3. Would you............?

    You mentioned you had already started clinical....is this an issue because they might pull you out of it? If it became a huge deal, I would gladly take the test again because I would not let one test get in the way of everything. Good luck and let...
  4. If you don't think you will work as a CNA, I would save the money. You will not be the only one who will be doing the skills for the first time. If it were me, I would CLEP because the more focus on your nursing courses, the better off you will be...
  5. Should I go into the LVN program or the RN program?

    It can be done. Tough, some crying and pulling of hair, wondering what the heck you were thinking...but it can be done. There are people on this board who have done the unbelievable when it comes to juggling life and nursing school! They are inspiri...
  6. Broken-hearted nursing student---

    Go take a nice, hot bath-sit back and picture yourself working as a nurse in the area of your choice. Really visulize it and then hit the books! Time will heal...it really will. Good luck to you!
  7. Hello everyone..What motivated you to take up nursing???

    I have to, have to, have to be intellectually challenged. If I am not able to use my mind in some complex way, I seriously just get up and walk away. It is not my best trait. I have had a hard time sticking with college majors and jobs because if ...
  8. What type of nurse do you want to be??

    Neurology or Transplant (Wow! My list has gotten smaller...yipee!) I also want to take my education all the way through post-master certif. and get into research. (Thank you siri!)
  9. OMG!!!!! I got a call TONIGHT and I start TOMORROW!!!

    YEEEEAAAAHHHHHH for you! :yelclap: Now get studying !!!! :chuckle Good luck to you!
  10. new girl

    Welcome! Do you mind if I ask you what the PAX test is?
  11. Leaving Sub-Acute Rehab/LTC for Oncology

    since i am only in the beginning of my crazy nursing journey-i really have no advice...but i wanted to tell you- :balloons: congratulations!:balloons: on your new job! i hope it turns out to be everything you want it to be!
  12. LPNs at my facility feel they are being direspected

    :rotfl: I am sure that would hold true in many places! When are these people who make these decisions going to GET IT!
  13. okay, I'm a little weirded out...

    I just want to wish you luck and I hope it is nothing serious. Be careful with medical advice...since it is not allowed to be given. (I just don't want to see anyone in trouble)
  14. When patients discuss other patients.

    Wow...this is a pretty interesting issue. I mean in instances where pts tell other people themselves is their business-but I never really thought of how they can overhear everything when they share rooms. Should we hold people to HIPAA when they s...
  15. I'm scared..........

    Good luck to you!
  16. Vet tech calling herself RN

    :chuckle Hang in there! I think a good end to this thread would be the OP letting us know what they did. If anything-just to calm the curiosity...
  17. Vet tech calling herself RN

    I understand the point some have made about if she wants to do it at the animal office, why should we care. But what concerns me is if she can let it slide off her tongue so easily, then does she also do it outside of work?
  18. I lost my HHA job already

    Well go figure. I was fired from my home health aide job. Here is the scoop- I was given a new client last week. So I met there with the nursing supervisor (she had to open the case before I could do anything) and while I was waiting for her in the...
  19. I lost my HHA job already

    Thanks again, I am sure now that I did the right thing standing my ground.
  20. Acceptance Letter--Thick or Thin?

    Thick because there were papers to sign and send back.
  21. Vet tech calling herself RN

    QUOTE=P_RN RN , Registered Nurse is a protected title in all states. That's it. That's all. Your Vet may not know she calls herself this. You need to give him a call. We need to protect our title. I agree! Rn's work hard for those credentials and...
  22. seems I'm blacklisted ... now what?

    I thought that employers were only suppose to confirm/deny the dates when someone called on you...I didn't think they were allowed to really discuss anything or make comments...is this different in nursing because of the nature of the job? Could you ...
  23. I don't want to start 2nd semester!

    I understand how you feel...it is heartbreaking when we have to make these sacrifices...I wish you the best...stay strong!
  24. Something To Brighten Your Day.
