  1. Losing respect for nursing students

    FuturePsychNP replied to kjnsweets's topic in General Nursing

    How can you compare apples to oranges? They're talking about people in nursing school not the military. If they wanted the environment you describe they'd have joined the military. If I 20 year old...

  2. NP Student not working in direct patient care

    FuturePsychNP replied to Kgantt's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Ha. I thought it was only me. I'm grossly unexcitable so although I don't "run around" I find that I'm frequently forgetting to do something, that I did something, that I'm supposed to do something...

  3. Losing respect for nursing students

    FuturePsychNP replied to kjnsweets's topic in General Nursing

    I don't find an issue with anyone sitting. Instead, after reading through all of this, and posting a few replies myself, I take more of an issue with those who lack the assertiveness to tell another...

  4. Is there a good way to wear a tie with scrubs?

    FuturePsychNP replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in Men in Nursing

    Ever considered 5.11

  5. Is there a good way to wear a tie with scrubs?

    FuturePsychNP replied to Bruce_Wayne's topic in Men in Nursing

    Only Bill Nye the Science Guy can rock a bow tie. I hate scrubs to the 10th degree. I procured a "rare" Landau style that has a button belt loops, and zippered fly, and actually wear a belt and...

  6. Compulsory male preceptoring

    FuturePsychNP replied to stablesystole's topic in Men in Nursing

    I've never had a male preceptor. Come to think of it, I've never worked a shift with another

  7. Guys are boring

    FuturePsychNP replied to exit96's topic in Men in Nursing

    There are less men in nursing so there are less coming here to chat. Also, we don't complain as much so there's less to be said on All

  8. Charting...what to say?

    FuturePsychNP replied to chrisrn24's topic in General Nursing

    The thing I don't like about medical documentation is that everyone wants sentence fragments. At any rate, I bet I have typed the following many thousand times; "Patient asleep. No physical distress...

  9. Losing respect for nursing students

    FuturePsychNP replied to kjnsweets's topic in General Nursing

    The awkward part is when they try to eat someone new who isn't young. It happened in school with teachers, and it's happened here in the workplace. Psych-oriented or not, I push

  10. Losing respect for nursing students

    FuturePsychNP replied to kjnsweets's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. I refer to my first college experience and degree as my education and my second time in and BSN as an indoctrination. Fortunately, I rejected it like a bad liver. It is indeed a vastly...

  11. NP Student not working in direct patient care

    FuturePsychNP replied to Kgantt's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Chime in here for me. I come from a different career, got a lot of exposure to mental health decided I wanted to get into mental health as a provider, explored the options, and psych NP seemed to be...

  12. Attitude Towards NP Students

    FuturePsychNP replied to Heart2015FNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You sound perturbed. I'm in charge of a shift of a medical unit. The patients are sleeping. My workers are sitting across from me looking at the internet, and another is reading a book. Rounds are...

  13. Losing respect for nursing students

    FuturePsychNP replied to kjnsweets's topic in General Nursing

    No sitting? That must be some type of traditional thing? Let me see. I'm not wearing white, I'm sitting at the computer on a discussion board, and I'm at work. I suppose I'm really gouging the eyes of...

  14. FNP in a non-clinical position

    FuturePsychNP replied to Kgantt's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Well, I want to work where I live, lol, so live was more pertinent. I know a guy who's wife makes 90k a year in North Las Vegas, and she only works Tues, Wed, and Thurs., as a staff RN. Here, in my...

  15. Psych question

    FuturePsychNP replied to lynds80's topic in Psychiatric

    I went back to college to get a second degree (nursing) with the sole intent of becomnig a psych NP. I'm now in the process of becoming a psych NP and working as a RN. I don't care for the typical...

  16. I might go for Nutritional science first..

    FuturePsychNP replied to EduardoLugo's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Why waste time with nursing school if you want to be a nutritionist, dietician, cafeteria manager, or whoever? Conversely, if you want to be a nurse don't waste time and money (it generally comes in...

  17. FNP in a non-clinical position

    FuturePsychNP replied to Kgantt's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I wouldn't want to be a CNO or DON, but I'd consider a myriad of other administrative, upper tier positions. I included the phrase "upper tier" because I think of the check in clerks and secretarys...

  18. FNP in a non-clinical position

    FuturePsychNP replied to Kgantt's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I can't fathom even going back to school for that. If I knew I wouldn't double my salary or come close to it I wouldn't consider it. 100k WOULD double my salary, and I make around 20k more than the...

  19. FNP in a non-clinical position

    FuturePsychNP replied to Kgantt's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Same here, sister! I can't even do the same "profession" for that long,

  20. CCEMT-P?

    FuturePsychNP replied to traumasurgRN's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    "Do you believe the elderly and children do not deserve access to medical care?" Not indefinitely, no. It's mostly the adult welfare leeches who abuse our social welfare programs who I can't stand...

  21. NURS 1100 & 1101

    FuturePsychNP replied to doxielover304's topic in General Students

    Oh foundations. Hmmm most boring class ever after grad school's nursing theory. Documentation, communication, legal, ethics, nursing process, cultural sensitivity, peeing, pooping (nursing is big on...

  22. newER

    FuturePsychNP replied to reebokHCFR's topic in Emergency

    You'll be taught. You'll do. You'll either love it or hate it, lol. I went through RN training and work as a RN only to get into a psych NP program (which I'm in). There are many of out there like...

  23. CT techs starting IVs

    FuturePsychNP replied to sjt9721's topic in Radiology

    It may not be regulated at all. Isn't here. Heck, here anybody can give meds if the employer allows and trains one to do so safely.

  24. CCEMT-P?

    FuturePsychNP replied to traumasurgRN's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    I sense that you too were a paramedic or some other level of EMS provider but are disturbed by the educational pathway of paramedics and unhappy with how EMS is administered so you make jabs at the...

  25. NURS 1100 & 1101

    FuturePsychNP replied to doxielover304's topic in General Students

    You do realize that colleges can assign whatever they want as a course number... Tell us the name of the course, and we can probably help better,
