Caribbean Character

I have always been a work-a-holic and I am planning on attempting to acquire two nursing positions, either both at one hospital or one at each of the two hospitals in our area. Both hospitals work 12 hour shifts with 3 days on-four days off, so I wou...

We had Nursing orientation today and I had my first opportunity to meet my fellow students. It turns out there are only 3 men including me in our class of 45. How many men are in your cohort?

I'm not saying it SHOULD apply to smokers, It just ****** me off that it applies to alcoholics and drug addicts (and sex addicts and food addicts and gambling addicts and...and...and....) but NOT smokers. Either addiction is a disease or it is not, y...

I am not a travel nurse, so I do not know if they participate in the program, but Baylor University Medical Center is THE best hospital in the area.

If you had actually read the FMCSR, instead of relying upon old episodes of BJ And The Bear for the legal information, you would know that diabetes is not a disqualifier as long as you are not on insulin, both amputation and partial deafness or deaf...

Funny how addiction is a DISEASE when it comes to alcoholics and junkies, but NOT when it comes to smokers!!! Last time I read the Americans With Disabilities Act, it is illegal to discriminate against a potential employee based on medical condition!...

Look them dead in the eye and ask them, "Are YOU going to wipe a patient's ass or take the time to walk them down the hall and back?!?!?!" then dump your girlfriend and her loser friends.

Ours is changing from 75% to 77% next semester.

I use this app also.

Get a job.

As a retired over-the-road trucker, I worked 70+ hours a week for many years but it is a young person's game. It takes a toll on you mentally and physically.

Here on the edge of Maine's Northern Woods what the rest of the country calls a "major winter storm" we just call Thursday....

But first you have to say "Oh my!"

Our program is that way. If you fail (

You best ask your instructor if pre-made drug cards are allowed. They are not in my program (and the drug cards are for Nursing, not Pharm in my program) and not making your own will cause you to fail.

They don't let "students who aren't qualified into the programs". Our program has AT LEAST 3-4 applicants for every available seat. ONLY the best get in but that doesn't mean that everyone is cut out to make it through the program. Those that do make...

I am planning to end up with a Masters as a CRNA.

At our local hospitals, staff are not allowed to carry personal cell phones while on duty.

I am in the same type of area and I agree. I plan to continue into an RN-BSN program as soon as I start work after graduation.

Normally I don't post in this forum, but I feel compelled this time. Would you let an attorney catheterize a patient or insert an NG tube? Why not? Because they are not a nurse! You, my friend, are not an attorney. You do your job and let the attorne...

The only problem with your premise is that Obama killed the space program.

As a former truck driver I worked 70+ hours a week for 20 years, but it isn't very good for your health. I would recommend 60 at the most and even that depends on your age, health, etc.

I am the "Dad" of our cohort, being the oldest male (started with 3, lost one last semester and gained 2 returns this semester) and among the oldest students (I am 44). I am in no way discriminated against for being a man.

How about the dream where you realize that there is a class that you have not attended in the past 6 weeks because you forgot that you were enrolled in it?!?!?! Or is that just me?
