    What nursing career would suit my mother?

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, my mom would! We already have a rocky relationship as it is. If she has found anything I have said about her she would lose it. We have nowhere else to go so I'd rather just keep this part of my...

    NCLEX RN 14 times

    OrganizedChaos replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You won't pick up the knowledge you need to help you pass the NCLEX. You have 2 options: 1) Go back to an accredited nursing school with a high pass rate OR 2) Give up on nursing. Everything you are...

    NCLEX RN 14 times

    OrganizedChaos replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You should have a decent grasp of the language at this point. You made it through nursing school, which I assume was taught in English. I think it's just time to hang up the nursing route & either...

    Is possible to get in LPN program with 2.6 GPA?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Yeshi94's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    My LVN program did not require prerequisites either. As long as you get a 55+ on the TEAS you are given an

    What nursing career would suit my mother?

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    Lol. No. Like I said I was just looking for advice for her since she came to me. Why isn't she here? Because I like to try to keep some part of my life private from her & she would be able to...

    Can I lose license over f word?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Angieadore's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I have worked PDN in homes where there were cameras we knew about & homes were there might've been cameras. The agency doesn't care about you. They care about the patient & keeping the patient...

    OrganizedChaos replied to sianee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Ok, after all the excuses & weird behavior I have to say, please choose a different path. You have been out of school for going on 3 years & haven't passed the NCLEX in your 10+ attempts. If...

    Preventing call-ins

    OrganizedChaos replied to Brandi,RN's topic in General Nursing

    I couldn't agree with this more. My son is in daycare & I swear every little bug he had I got but I got even sicker than he did. If I was working I would've had to call out due to those illnesses....

    Becoming Dad: An Humbling Birth Experience of a New Father and Nurse

    I am about to have my second child & I couldn't have agreed more with your article. It was perfectly written & brought a smile to my face.

    Please Don't Judge Patients

    OrganizedChaos replied to NurseLife88's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Ok, I think I'm feeling better for the moment. At least enough to respond. I believe we make judgments we don't realize as soon as we see someone, patient or not. Even before they speak, we judge...

    What nursing career would suit my mother?

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    I've worked LTC & even though I've never worked in a hospital the pace is *not* slow. But I didn't even think of that. Due to her job she spent so much time in NH & I think it might be a good...

    OrganizedChaos replied to elkpark's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    What other services? Because in my town there is a PP & maybe 2 OBGYNs. So if that PP shut down, where would those women go? The closest towns are over an hour away. I have been to that PP in my...

    What nursing career would suit my mother?

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    I think she still plans on going to the local community college to inquire more. I just figured she could skip that part & become a nurse since she couldn't survive on a med aide salary should she...

    That's it? That's all the CEO makes? Would you rather your tax dollars go to helping men & women stay healthy or to support the many children that will born without Planned Parenthood's help....

    No, they aren't unfortunately. She could've gotten tuition assistance but it would've had to have been schooling related to her

    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    I completely agree with you. My ex-best friend did amazing in school but when it came time to actually work she hated it. She also didn't have the personality for it either. But my mom is completely...

    I'm so sorry for what you are going through. I don't think anyone should ever have to worry if they will have a job to go to the next day. I hoped Trump wouldn't win & when he did I knew the next...

    I just can't imagine a place where women can't have access to the healthcare they need. Having affordable healthcare access to things like birth control can prevent so many unintended pregnancies...

    I am Bipolar as well & your post sounds eerily similar to what I have gone through. I would take jobs I knew I would hate or would be too stressful for me, work awhile & then quit with no...

    OrganizedChaos replied to elkpark's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I agreed with you up until the last sentence. Planned Parenthood is much more that an abortion clinic. So many low income women (& men) go to PP to seek care not related to an abortion. To get rid...
