  1. MUSC admission 2014

    mamagui replied to mamagui's topic in School, College Programs

    Welcome! The waiting is the hardest part, but I am happy to know that I am not alone in the process. Did they give you a reason for the denial? Hopefully being in state will make it easier for you to...

  2. L/D vs CNM

    mamagui replied to mamagui's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I think that is great advice (read less AN, talk to more L/D nurses)! I was not intending to lump all L/D nurses together, although in hind site it does appear that way. I guess I was just shocked to...

  3. Do Mean Girls make Mean Nurses

    mamagui replied to CSARmedic's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Agreed- it is rather insulting to say that women are the source of bullying. Men are perfectly capable of bullying and making a work environment

  4. The sight of blood makes me pass out.

    mamagui replied to Joe V's topic in Nurses Rock

    Unless the pt has HIV or HEP, what is wrong with catching a baby with no gloves (given that you do not have time to put them on)? Sure they are covered in vernix, but that is brand new life in your...

  5. A few questions about bedside manner.

    mamagui replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Dude, read closer. The OP suggested that she may be on the spectrum, and my suggestions were intended to help her to find ways to show compassion and not necessarily worry that she is not bubbly....

  6. A few questions about bedside manner.

    mamagui replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    @Brandon In fact, it seems you did say that it was "stupid fluff." Furthermore, some people are sensitive. Compassion IS part of the job- no, not everyone shows it in the same way. But for someone...

  7. A few questions about bedside manner.

    mamagui replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Well, contrary to what Brandon says, holding someone's hand during a difficult time is NOT a stupid thing to do. Also, you do NOT have to be bubbly to make a difference. Case and point: I recently had...

  11. Another burnt out nurse - questioning everything. . .

    mamagui replied to AlphaPig's topic in Medical-Surgical

    Graduate school is not like undergrad- granted I have not been through nursing school yet, but I do have a masters degree in another field. Yes, endless papers, yes endless theory (lit theory, in my...

  12. Midwifery 101

    mamagui replied to StaceJ95's topic in Advanced Practice

    Lots of programs, but not all, require 1 year experience working as an RN before entering into the program. Some schools offer an MSN in Midwifery, while others offer a Masters of Science in...

  13. Cringe worthy follow up Note

    mamagui replied to MrChicagoRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I am a firm believer in a hand written thank you. Yes, when it comes down to equally qualified candidates, a well thought out, grammatically correct thank you note can make all of the difference in...

  16. MUSC BSN FALL 2014

    mamagui replied to randib07's topic in School, College Programs

    How long before the deadline did you apply? The deadline for priority isn't until Nov. 15, so I think it is safe to say that we probably wont find out until after the deadline has passed. I figure...

    mamagui replied to pugmom79's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    CNMs can work with OBs in private practice, in hospital settings, in free standing birth centers, and depending where you live, they may also do homebirths. Many work with back-up OBs in the event...
