  1. American Nurse Practitioners in Canada

    SeekingNur posted a topic in International Nursing

    Hello All! I'm an American currently working toward my BSN. We are seriously considering immigrating to Canada after I obtain my MSN as a nurse practitioner. We are looking at the Vancouver area, btw....

  2. Houston Community College ADN

    SeekingNur posted a topic in Texas Nursing

    I'm thinking about going the RN-ADN and then BSN root. I was wondering if anyone here has experience with Houston Community College's ADN program. Is it very competitive? What kind of criterion do...

  3. LVN programs in Houston and a Dilemma

    SeekingNur posted a topic in Texas Nursing

    Hi All, Firstly, I'm having a hard time finding LVN programs in the Houston area. Does Memorial Hermann offer a program? I read that they do, but I can't find any information online at their website....

    SeekingNur posted a topic in General Nursing

    Did the title catch your attention? Good, I was hoping it would. I've seen people talk about this attitude on allnurses quite a bit, and I find the reactions fascinating. I'm amazed at the passion,...

  7. advice for BSN student wanting to be an NP

    SeekingNur replied to eastie79's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I've looked at schools in Michigan, Oregon, Texas, California and they *all* want nurses to have at least one year of experience before FNP school. It makes no sense at all to me to demand that of...

    SeekingNur replied to SeekingNur's topic in General Nursing

    lol, i admit i was hoping for that reaction to at least get folks to open the thread. But really I was just trying to get a feel for where nursing is headed in the opinion of all the smart nurses...

  13. CRNA VS RN intensive care

    SeekingNur replied to macmac's topic in General Nursing

    I can tell you as a Bay Area native who now lives in Houston that, that cost of living calculator is wrong, wrong, wrong. Our family income is around that 58k mark and we live in a house that's 10...

  16. Any cultural differences encountered while nursing?

    SeekingNur replied to daisey_may's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry, Mullti I got you and Tazzi mixed up. Yes, it does appear that we agree. The bottom line for me is respecting the wishes of the patient and not making assumptions, it seems that is your bottom...

  17. Any cultural differences encountered while nursing?

    SeekingNur replied to daisey_may's topic in General Nursing

    I do think making decisions regarding a child's health is different than one partner asking the other if it's ok to have a procedure (especially if it's life saving) done. Parents are jointly...

  18. Any cultural differences encountered while nursing?

    SeekingNur replied to daisey_may's topic in General Nursing

    That's not what you said in your first post, and that's what I take issue with. No one is demanding that you argue theology, only that you not make assumptions. You made the statement that this is how...

  19. Any cultural differences encountered while nursing?

    SeekingNur replied to daisey_may's topic in General Nursing

    Would you only do this with Muslims or would you also do it if your patient looked like they belonged to some other religious group? This is a sign of abusive behavior, regardless of the culture....

  20. Any cultural differences encountered while nursing?

    SeekingNur replied to daisey_may's topic in General Nursing

    WHOA! That would be a very bad assumption on your part and that of your colleagues. I am a hijab weaing Muslim woman and I'd be furious if a health care provider did this to me, I know all of my...

  21. NOW does the public understand?

    SeekingNur replied to FroggysMom's topic in General Nursing

    So many of the responses on this thread are so disheartening. I really wonder if one of the root problems with the issues we see in nursing (disrespect, lower wages than we deserve, being overworked...

    SeekingNur replied to lmf2006's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thank you so much for taking the time to answer questions. I hope this isn't too much of a bother, but I have just one more, ok two more :0). 1. Do your transcripts show that you are graduating from...
