  1. Doctoral degree to become an NP???

    Even though this thread is very long, it is extremely informative. Personally, I can see why the NP community wants to move toward a doctoral, clinical degree. Like physical therapy and pharmacy -...
  2. Will somebody PLEASE tell these doctors....

    When you are paged, wait for us to find the doc that paged you (ER). If you hang up, I'm just going to page your irritating a** again, and keep at it until you call back. Also, I don't care how many...
  3. New Nurse in the ER

    Try this link. Good luck! New grad ER links....
  4. "Men should be EMT's or Doctors!"

    Even though the woman may have grown up in a different era, she's living in today's world. She also grew up in time when segregation was legal. Should keep all minority workers away from her too? I'm...
  5. PIMA Medical Institute

    I've heard the same from another student who is currently in block 5. I would say if a person has the money and really dosen't want to wait a year or two (or more) then go that route. I think that...
  6. acute care ED advise

    So...what happened? Any updates?
  7. Rules for the ER (long)

    I apologize if these have been repeated: 1. If your nurse hasn't seen you for 15 minutes, make sure to remind everyone on staff. Sometimes they sit in the breakroom and forget about all of their...
  8. Rules for the ER (long)

    For all of the people that think some ER nurses are not compassionate: EVERY area of nursing has someone who needs to vent. This thread could - just as easily - have been in the Med/Surg, OB, or rehab...
  9. Well said!
  10. Doctoral degree to become an NP???

    Whoa! had a bad experience, I presume??? Unfortunately, a lot of what you say happens in the ivory towers known as higher education. It sux! Keep your head up and good luck!
  11. You go, girl!! I really give props to all of you single mothers out there (I was raised by one)! Good luck in everything you do!
  12. Mommies and daddys in the trauma room.

    Thanks for the info!
  13. Male staff-Female Pt. - ECG

    I'm a male tech./nursing student, and I find that if I explain what I'm doing in a very careful way, then I get a good response. Once I feel the patient is ready, I usually disrobe them. I work in an...
  14. Questions regarding Maricopa CC's Nursing program

    I used to think that the wait to get into the MCCCD system was rough... ...until I met two people who moved here from out of state and one from Canada because their waitlists were twice as long.......
  15. So annoying when students ask your grade

    If you guys think this is bad with prenursing students, wait until you have class with a bunch of premedical students. The worst part is, sometimes your test grades are the only thing that you have in...
  16. ***Pathophysiology Club '06***

    I don't want to brag, but I did very well. 100% after the curve!!! :w00t: Now on to renal, pulmonary, and endocrine!!!!
  17. I posted this in the General Student Nursing board and got NO responses!!! I'll try it here... Anyone in patho in the fall? How's it going?
  18. For all of us waiting for spring placement for MCCCD, it starts today! Maybe we can use this thread to announce when we got in (if we get in, that is) and make some early connections. Good luck,...
  19. What Should I Do?

    :angryfire That sounds so frustrating!! I took anatomy and physiology in 2000. I started Pathophysiology this semester and felt pretty nervous that I had the oldest A & P class out of everyone. I...
  20. Placement for MCCCD's programs start today!

    Has anyone else heard?
  21. Anyone heard of any NP to MD programs?

    Although there are many schools that offer a doctorate in nursing (ie PhD in nursing, DNP, etc.), these are not medical schools (ie MD or DO granting programs). One would need to go to medical school,...
  22. Why not get FNP & ACNP at same time???

    Daisy, Thanks for the post!!
  23. ***Pathophysiology Club '06***

    Well folks, Exam number two down this week. It covered the immune system, hematogical, and cardiovascular - and all of the altered functions and diseases. I think that I did pretty well, but I need to...
  24. Which path would you take to BSN?

    Hey MBA, Congrats on the acceptance!!!!!!
  25. Yeah, here we have to buy our own scantons, too. I'm gonna play the devli's advocate, though.. $1.50 is not that bad. I see people coming into class each day with COFFEE that costs more than that....
