  3. Medical Assistant as school nurse

    Bumex replied to smileitout's topic in School

    It is illegal to even state that you are "working as the school nurse." Some states such claims can lead to jail

  4. Hey, Depaul MENP graduates...

    Bumex replied to Elsa15's topic in School, College Programs

    Noyesno- just to clarify, the OP is talking about the ADN v MENP program at DePaul, which is masters entry to nursing practice (RN MSN program, w/o NP component). I went through this program, worked a...

  5. unfair treatment by professors

    Bumex replied to Lizzly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're explaining most of my teachers through my three degrees. Springchick is right, nursing school I much harder. Not everyone will treat you the same nor will everyone test students the same. My...

  6. Borderline question clarification needed

    Bumex replied to nurselove757's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Nurse love, I actually ran across this question in one of my study applications. I had the same understanding and rationale. I would just really like some understanding of why as

  8. Hey, Depaul MENP graduates...

    Bumex replied to Elsa15's topic in School, College Programs

    Don't do ADN, the push now is to only hire BSN graduates. I rarely find places that hire ADNs in acute care now. In fact, I have plenty of friends that have gone that route, and ended up doing their...

  9. Hey, Depaul MENP graduates...

    Bumex replied to Elsa15's topic in School, College Programs

    Choose the cheaper degree. I'm in so much debt from that program it's ridiculous. No difference in pay or respect (at least not two years out). Maybe down the road it will be better, but not yet have...

  13. Your monitoring program allow whipits?

    Bumex replied to RNdynamic's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Obviously you really need to take a hard look at your life and career. Monitoring and recovery are obviously not working. You need more help. What's more important, your RN career or your next

    Bumex replied to standupspeakout's topic in General Students

    It's difficult to establish responsibility in a person when they get a dui during nursing school. That is such a short period of time, and if you cannot behave during that time, how can you be trusted...

    Bumex replied to standupspeakout's topic in General Students

    I actually just did the same and found a ton of random crap as well. Sounds like this person loves making up things and/or changing things so she has something to talk about. She really harps the DUI...

    Bumex replied to standupspeakout's topic in General Students

    I have read this three times with no luck understanding the point of this post. Wild guess is that the OP couldn't get a license for some conviction or harmed a patient while they were a

  20. DePaul MENP Spring 2016

    Bumex replied to nursetobe2016's topic in School, College Programs

    Almost all of us were able to find jobs immediately post graduation. Most of us had offerings where we had our synthesis. The program is tough, long, and sometimes seems like there's no end in sight....

  21. Telemetry

    Bumex replied to dvycrcktt's topic in Medical-Surgical

    ACLS is the basis of life support. It is fairly easy to obtain, much more difficult to exercise in the moment when someone's life is on the line. Certified? Yes. Competent? No. I've worked tele and...

  22. Failed NCLEX 3rd time, should I go back to do LVN?

    Bumex replied to Natnurse89's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Have you tried hurst review? I would never recommend going backwards. I've known people to take the exam 5-6 times before passing it. Most of the time it turns out they have not studied enough or just...

  23. Trouble deciding on whether to do an NCLEX RN prep

    Bumex replied to abhogue724's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Do the hurst review of you do any. A friend of mine did the Kaplan twice and failed, then did hurst and passed at 75. She said that hurst made everything far more clear than Kaplan did, for a much...

  24. Hate my FNP job

    Bumex replied to FNPCA's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    There are plenty who would ask, "why would you not want to be an NP?" Different strokes for different folks. There is also no such thing as "just a

  25. Advice!!

    Bumex replied to CarlHester's topic in Men in Nursing

    If you don't want to be a nurse, you shouldn't want to be an NP. As previously stated, being and having the RN experience is huge towards the NP. You build off of that education and experience. It...
