  1. A nurse being an independent contractor is a great idea. I have met nurses who do this, and they make $40 to $50 an hour. They each obtained a business license, registered as a P.C., and purchased...
  2. Professional Attire for Nurses

    Olright Kday... And I am saying this jokingly. As a straight male nurse, wearing a gay white nursing cap on my head would be a little much. I did work at a place requiring an all white uniform....
  3. Seriousely,do you even use algebraic equations ?

    As previously stated, you use basic algebra, actually, more like pre-algebra to perform drug calculations. You do not really use anything more advanced like graphing parabolas, using slope formula,...
  4. WORKING WHILE GOING TO SCHOOL

    First of all, student loans, student loans, student loans. Paying out of pocket is way too much responsibility to attend a nursing school whose programs are almost always full time. If you earn...
  5. Apology to Suzy K.

    I am an LPN but still a professional. Suzy, I owe you an apology. I believe that you were honestly and innocently wondering why people choose to be an LPN as opposed to being an RN. Out of respect...
  6. Dream Job

    I would love to be an FNP in a level one or two ER working with a diverse patient population making $70,000 to $80,000/yr. Although this sounds obtainable, in AZ, I have yet to see an ER hire an NP...
  7. To all you NP's...

    Chris: How would you know if not being an RN first hindered your ability any? You have never really been a seasoned RN. RN's do the treatments and give the meds that the docs order, and therefore...
  8. All Nurses Read This

    1.LPN 2. 4 3. Southwest 4. No 5. Benefits are substandard 6. Like the hours - only 3 12 hour shifts a week are great! 7. My supervisors are morons. 8. No - about as far as I can throw an elephant. 9....
  9. The Big Money Question

    First of all, the question is hypothetical. If I were an RN, I would want $50,000 a year, as many "professionals" are paid that sum and then some. 9 to 10 % wage increases maxing out at $75,000 a...
  10. NO MORE SUZY K !!!!!!!

    "Whew! It took all that for you to answer!" Condescending tone again I think!!! Are you people blind? Can you not read? Susy K. was and is being rude, and continues to perpetuate the negative...
  11. NO MORE SUZY K !!!!!!!

    I am not trying to add fuel to a fire here but would honestly like to know-where can an LPN push any IV meds? Not in our scope of practice the last time I checked.I can certainly start IV's-hang...
  12. NO MORE SUZY K !!!!!!!

    You need to be an LPN to understand this. Susy K. had subtle undertones that were disrespectful. Reading is a good idea, especially reading
  13. NO MORE SUZY K !!!!!!!

    Read the entire post, then comment. Thank
  14. Why LPN??

    Again, RN's and LPN's do very much the same job except for a few subtlties. For example, I passed all the meds and gave all the shots on the floor while the RN had to do those oh-so-difficult...
  15. Why LPN??

    Susy, You are indeed being condescending to the individuals who posted their quotes. Iris was responding to CLO's comment, which was rude, unprofessional, and hurtful, not yours. Secondly,...
