    Seeking Interview with Infection Control Nurse!

    I highly doubt your teacher will accept or wanted an interview done this way. The whole purpose of an interview is to be done in person. I know things happen but there are nurses practically...

    Nursing school and newborn?

    I was just like you, I wanted to become an RN shortly after I became an RN. But then I got married, had my son (who is currently 2.5) & am now pregnant again. I graduated from nursing school in...

    Peers very Unsupportive

    Everyone has struggles. You have an F in English, a C in A&P & you have to retake these classes it might not be enough to raise your GPA to be competitive to get in. Remember, just because it...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    I don't think this thread will die because more & more people will come on the website, view this thread & like a lot of people, not read all the pages. With the body of this thread being so...

    Peers very Unsupportive

    If you have Fs & Ws it will make it hard to get into a nursing program. How many times have you taken these courses? Have you looked at the requirements for admission to nursing programs? A lot of...

    4.0 Student...Didn't get in

    So you asked a student that is in the program & they gave you their opinion. Have you spoke with the actual nursing department about it? I am another short, busty girl & I got into a nursing...

    Kind of a complicated question...

    How would you support yourself after you graduated with a BSN in biology? I know you are young but life can get in the way, so I would highly advise you to transfer to another institution that has a...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    I'm sure the OP's BON has already found this
  10. But that's like comparing apples to oranges. Doctors study medicine while nurses study nursing. Also what is with the attitude? You posted a question & people are giving their piece of mind. Just...
  11. If you've never worked or had experience in a NICU, how will you truly know you like it? Also, how will you know you won't like another speciality just as much. You are closing yourself off to soo...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    Omg, NETY? I have NEVER experienced it. Not once. That is such an over used & useless phrase. When did she experience "NETY"? Never. Bullying isn't specific to nursing, it's everywhere & in...

    11/19: Handle the Harvest Moon with Care

    I am tired of being pregnant. I was so sick Thanksgiving that I didn't go to my SILs. Not to mention my son is going through his terrible twos. I'm going crazy because I can't do much & my son is...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    What I don't get is that you are *just now* learning from this, now that you are in trouble with the BON. You didn't care about the patients you were hurting, the money you were stealing or your mom's...

    Why do parents think schools are daycares?

    Clearly people making those comments don't know any nurses or teachers. My MIL is a teacher & she gets home around 5/6, doesn't go to bed until 12a & then wakes up at 5:30 to start it all...

    Did you choose nursing because it was your "calling"?

    Not at all. My parents suggested this career so I did it. I never once as a child wanted to be a nurse when I was older. Also none of my family is in

    CNAs give medications

    There is no way I would feel comfortable with a CNA passing meds. But I do feel comfortable with med aides passing meds. The med aides are very helpful & we (as nurses) could not do our jobs in...

    HELP! Threats to call BON!

    I hope you have changed the locks at your house. That guy sounds like a super creep! Unless there was a history of those reports to the BON, I'm sure they won't think twice about it. I've had two of...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    I am just so sickened by your actions & lack of empathy for anyone but yourself. You clearly have not learned from this. If it takes punishment from the BON to open your eyes, I have no words. So...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    You started a thread & anyone can comment as long as they abide by the TOS. I don't know why you would be surprised we are all in shock over your transgressions. I think when it comes to patient...

    I am not proud of my track record.

    Are any of us surprised? Please don't continue in nursing. You & nursing do not mix. Just because you *want* to be a nurse doesn't mean you *should* be a nurse. I want to be a singer but I can't...

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    I was gonna go to visit my in-laws but I'm too pregnant (aka too sick) for that. So it will just be a quiet day at

    did any of you share your first job offer on Facebook?

    When I had Facebook, I did & regret it. Now I don't have Facebook any more so it's not a

    I want to add, for all those people sticking up for the OP & saying we're bad nurses. My husband has no certification or degree to his name & has never worked in the healthcare field. I read...
