    Negativity toward nursing as a career choice

    inthecosmos replied to MssNurse2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hope to work in Psych or Developmental Disabilities. Trust me, I get the same look from Clinical and Nurse Managers. There's such a need for it, and I feel so pulled to it. But, I do hope to one day...

    inthecosmos replied to MssNurse2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My only issue here is that may be true for your area. Where I live, and MUCH of the south there is a HUGE shortage. Every day, I see thousands of jobs posted in my state alone for nurses (and many are...

    inthecosmos replied to Anona-mouse's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    The only reason I was brought to this post was the quotations aroundcompassionate. No where in any definition I see does it require a deity or religious practice in order for this to be effective...

    I worked at a facility (as a PCA type worker) that had several group homes in the county I lived in. The homes mostly composed of individuals over 18 years of age, but we had one home with children....

    Got rejected from several nursing programs. What are your coping mechanisms?

    inthecosmos replied to TiffanyLe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The school I am currently at has a Nursing program. I recently went into the office and asked about the application. The advisors told me I was a shoe in for the program. I have a 4.0 GPA, every class...

    Apply into the Nursing program or apply next year after completing pre reqs?

    inthecosmos replied to kmeowzer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Most of what people consider "pre-reqs" are actually "related courses". I would recommend waiting a year. I have completed all but one (which I will be doing in the summer) "related" courses for my...

    Need encouragement!

    inthecosmos replied to thatnursingguy03's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would recommend taking it slow. I have not done too well in Science classes before, and based on scores throughout high school, I took A&P and Chemistry as a single class in a semester. I am...

    What would you do?

    inthecosmos replied to 2 Left Feet's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    What would you do if you were made to take the TEAS Exam segregated from all the other students in your cohort? First, I'd consider this a blessing, but that's just me. I enjoy quiet settings where I...

    Actually, if you are going for the LPN program I know (for a fact, my boyfriend went there) that Riverside will not hire LPN's.

    Hospital based nursing programs in Virginia

    inthecosmos replied to shalom88's topic in Virginia Nursing

    From what I've gathered depending on whether or not you become an RN or an LPN makes the difference of your ability to get a job at the location you attend school. In VA, I believe LPNS rarely, if...
