    Male student enters OB room. What do you think?

    OrganizedChaos replied to truckinusa's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I think there are pieces missing to the story. I mean I understand certain cultures not wanting men in the rooms but to kick you out of school for that, I just can't wrap my head around it. When I was...

    Would you go straight to RN or start as LPN?

    OrganizedChaos replied to ana377's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I was really young when I became an LVN so I made a bunch of stupid mistakes, job wise. I also didn't know if I would like being a nurse. I'm glad I became an LVN first. I actually went to university...

    OrganizedChaos replied to BSNMomOf6's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If you want to be a midwife one day I would consider becoming a nurse. That is the best route. If your youngest is 6 he/she will understand you are in school & need to study. It's a small...

    Yeah there were a bunch of cases I worked before where the patients just slept & I felt like a baby sitter. If the family isn't lenient enough to let you watch tv or Netflix, I brought homework,...

    She hasn't even graduated from her BSN program. She has failed, twice. Who knows, she might fail again! That makes me worry if she ever becomes a nurse

    Go back & re-read your post, that is NOT in your post. I read your post over & over many times. That second part was NOT in your post. Maybe you meant to put it in there, but it wasn't there....

    OrganizedChaos replied to ToBeBornANurseJB's topic in General Students

    Don't all nurses have to think critically? That seems like a rather ignorant statement to me. So then what do they teach LVNs? LVNs aren't nurses? I know I can work in the hospital system here. If I...

    Wow. I'd get a new PCP like, yesterday. If she in no way has any medical training then she shouldn't act like it. I'm sorry you're going through this. I hope things get

    Clearly she didn't comprehend it the first time, she failed. She didn't understand the questions the second time she failed. She won't get to rework the questions for the NCLEX so she will pass. How...

    OrganizedChaos replied to ToBeBornANurseJB's topic in General Students

    I don't agree. She had already failed once before & was let back into the program. Then she failed again. Is it horrible that she failed by less than a point? Yes. But do I take her side? No. She...

    Nursing school is incredibly time consuming. If you don't have a good support system in place then I would delay school until your kids are

    OrganizedChaos replied to BSNMomOf6's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    If an MA was hired in a hospital (I would be surprised if they were), I would assume it would be as a unit secretary. Most MAs I've seen work in doctor's offices. No MAs & LVNs don't do the same...

    Exactly. You can't appeal when you fail the NCLEX. You just fail. School shouldn't be any different. Study & pass. Sorry, I'm not gonna pat the OP on the back for "fighting the man" & winning....

    LVNs & MAs are two completely different things. Do you want to be a nurse? I'm sure MAs work in the hospital but not in a nursing
