  1. Not getting it as nurses- the view

    The View has said a lot of things about a lot of people. I wouldn't let that get to me. Here is my main problem with this whole situation: First of all, I ABHORE the Miss America pageants. I think...
  2. The Stethoscope

    It's not just the nurses who are upset. Almost everyone who has heard about it seems to be upset. What can we say, people like
  3. This happened to me today. Urinating blood, feel like there's a war going on in my abdominopelvic region. Pardon me for scheduling a doctor's
  4. AllNurses Abbreviations

    I'm 23 and usually have no idea how to go about interpreting some things. I usually just ask the person, and then we joke about me being a grandma trapped in a 23 year-old's

    So is it safe to assume that any smutt you post is more than likely related to your little kiddo banging on the bathroom

    There are times when education is necessary and appropriate, and then there are times when we should console those who are
  10. 9/5 What I learned this week.....

    Maybe the schools just don't want to pay for as many sims as are needed for proper learning, so they just throw extra body parts
  11. 9/5 What I learned this week.....

    October 23--I'm looking forward to it. Right now we're just practicing on each other or on sims in the school labs. Those sims are pretty creepy. There's also a sim that has the head of a male but the...

    Ugh, now I have to take time away from studying to look that up. I can't not look that one
  13. 9/5 What I learned this week.....

    I'm predicting that you're destined for greatness if you're choosing to have side projects while taking courses than many nursing students have said were the hardest. Good for you! I'm in an ADN...

  15. 9/5 What I learned this week.....

    I know it. I've been trying to get it over with ASAP. I'm taking Math for Meds, Physiology, and in one month Geriatrics. I think it's weird that I didn't have to take Phys before entry into the...
  16. 9/5 What I learned this week.....

    So basically, everything is as it always has been on AN--the crazies, the entitled students, the *** moments, and the cool stuff. Most of my dad's side of the family are anti-vaxxers who would...
  17. Brian Short News

    So very sad. My heart goes out to everyone who loved him. Thank you, Brian, for a place we can go when we need a laugh, need advice, or need to connect with others who can relate to us. AN has been...

  19. 9/5 What I learned this week.....

    I come back to AN after having my ass kicked by the first week of nursing school, only to find this?!?! You changed your avatar??? Everything is chaos.
  20. Nursing student hair color change for more respect

    I have blonde hair and I'm not having this problem in school. I *did* have this problem in high school, though, so I went back and forth between dying my hair brunette and red. Now I just stick with...
  21. Darned if you don't, darned if you do

    Sometimes going the extra mile for someone like that makes them calm down. (It doesn't always work, but it's worth a shot.) Do your normal job duties (like you're already doing) and then go out of...

    I have absolutely no doubt about
  23. CNA disrespect?

    Some nurses disrespect CNAs, some medical students disrespect nurses, some fellows disrespect medical students, and so it goes. I'm a CNA who works HH and I have never personally felt disrespected. I...

  25. PVT: Question of Character?

    I agree with everything you've stated above. I would still be comfortable receiving care from a nurse who did the PVT. This is only my opinion, but I believe intent plays a big role in morality....
