    I wouldn't sweat it. He doesn't require much online

    Hmmm. Wonder what our decidely male contributors have to say on that

    RNsRWe replied to NurseOnAMotorcycle's topic in General Nursing

    Of course it's a joke, and a good one :) I love GomerBlog! If patients knew that the amount of their bill that the insurance carrier will pay is directly related to how THEY handle themselves when...

    Crutches and Clinicals

    RNsRWe replied to RookieRoo's topic in General Students

    Our facility doesn't allow anyone to wear a boot to protect an injury while in a nursing or nursing-related job, period, and that includes students who use our site for their program clinicals. There...

    RNsRWe replied to nursekrs143's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes. Addressing the first part of your post, the number of test questions doesn't matter. The test concludes when the computer determines to a 95% certainty that you are either competent or...

    Travel Nurse Scam?

    Better change the 'meow' to 'woof woof': the OP is a male. Or, self-described "alpha

    On the spot interview for the VA

    RNsRWe replied to litebrightgirl's topic in Government, Military

    Depends on the hospital, AND on the unit, like most places. There is no one set standard for "how VA runs wards". It's very variable! You may be offered a choice of shifts, but more likely is you'll...

    Payment Declined PVT 2015 nclex-rn

    RNsRWe replied to lab0117's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If you did the PVT only a matter of hours after you completed your exam, all you know is that your first scoring was a 'fail'. It is not until a full 24 hours has passed that you can be sure BOTH...

    I'd even give over all my royalties for the "READ THIS" and "PVT QUESTIONS?" articles...oh, wait...I don't HAVE any royalties, lol.... Still, wish they would read them BEFORE posting the same...

    Why you didn't get that scholarship.

    RNsRWe replied to Mavrick's topic in General Students

    I LOVE THIS! I have a kid getting ready to push off to college soon, and am going to send him a link to this thread. I usually share some laughs from the site with him, but now can give him...

    Travel Nurse Scam?

    RNsRWe replied to 1alphamale's topic in Travel

    Since English is obviously not his first language, such a contract might be more than he can manage. Better have someone else EXPLAIN it to him, on his terms. But, of course, only an expert in the...

    Travel Nurse Scam?

    RNsRWe replied to 1alphamale's topic in Travel

    Unreal, right? I think I can see why "Alpha Male" might have issues finding employment at all....anywhere. To any travel nurses out there who have the information the OP so rudely demands, I say...

    Travel Nurse Scam?

    RNsRWe replied to 1alphamale's topic in Travel

    Wow, you are really QUITE rude, you know that? I was polite and didn't "blindly think I knew" anything, I was completely appropriate. It's not like you were paying for a service, for heaven's sake,...

    RNsRWe replied to kuippo's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I'm wondering at this point just what the OP was accused of (and apparently, lost the fight regarding)? ALL her posts talk of the corruption and maleveolence of the Arizona BoN, it doesn't stop. I'd...

    Travel Nurse Scam?

    RNsRWe replied to 1alphamale's topic in Travel

    Since it's standard practice for any HR to do background checks on employees prior to making offers (or they make an offer contingent upon passing the check), why wouldn't you expect a travel agency...

    RNsRWe replied to AshleyC2015's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Ashley, have you called your local ED and asked to speak with an RN? Have you called the hospital (any hospital, there are many!) and asked for a name so you can set up an interview? THIS kind of...

    Please help I need to interview an RN.

    RNsRWe replied to MishkaLov's topic in General Nursing

    Diana, we receive MANY MANY such requests every week. There's even a much-commented-on thread in the General Student Forum that addresses this line of questioning. You cannot get a valid "interview"...

    It's a program that many have gone through on this website; here's the URL for a very long thread of conversation on it:https://allnurses.com/nursing-online-distance/rn-to-bsn-854234-page152.html...

    Well....she probably won't have to mention it for it to be noticed, LOL, she's six months gone! Just thought of something else: while of course it's illegal to be denied a job due to pregnancy, you...

    RNsRWe replied to Rexie's topic in General Nursing

    Of course you can have a social life, and SHOULD. But that doesn't mean that you are always available at all times to all people for all things. Working every other weekend means you are OFF every...

    help :( 1st attempt 265/2nd attempt 75. PVT said I failed :(

    RNsRWe replied to Missred9's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Not exactly. If you did the PVT incorrectly (as so many, if not most, do) then you'd find yourself out of money NOT because it was a valid card and it "took it anyway", but because you'd have done it...

    RNsRWe replied to Missred9's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If you didn't submit financial info, you didn't actually do the trick. Everyone who plays with the PVT is brought to a screen at which they can submit card information. Doesn't mean you failed,...
