  2. Need 50 student nurse responses for school research project!

    Purple_roses replied to pinkfutureRN's topic in General Students

    I wish I could do the survey for you! I start my first semester of the nursing program next month, so I don't have any experience to give you thoughtful answers. I do hope some students on this site...

  9. When celebs stop by to say hi

    Purple_roses replied to adventure_rn's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Well of course I have to vote for the Chris Hemsworth option--it's not even really a choice for me--I just have to. But considering most of the younger children especially have absolutely no idea who...

  10. Are ER Patients Getting More Ridiculous?

  11. repeating a prerequisite

    Purple_roses replied to RNfro's topic in School, College Programs

    First you need to take a close look at the admissions requirements and policies of the nursing school(s) you wish to attend. Some look unfavorably on repeated pre reqs. For instance, my school...

  12. Any confirmation on this doozy?

    Purple_roses replied to BuckyBadgerRN's topic in General Nursing

    So Kaplan is basically trying to convince everyone that certain states say, "Congrats on passing NCLEX, you're a nurse!" And then a year later say, "oops, just kidding!"

  13. First code

    Purple_roses replied to Trama_junky's topic in General Students

    Does your school have a counselor or someone similar who might be able to talk about this with you? It is not easy seeing someone die, and I can't even imagine having a PEDs patient as your first

  14. Do we matter?

    Purple_roses replied to Diesel17's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    As a fellow CNA, I think we're fabulous and needed :) I may be biased. It's unfortunate that the nurses you encounter hold that opinion. The ones I encounter are always extremely grateful to have a...

  15. Why am I so depressed?

    Purple_roses replied to freckles23's topic in Health, Stress Management

  16. Gay student attending Christian Nursing school?

    Purple_roses replied to gpark32's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The Catholic university in my area, Notre Dame, does not discriminate against sexual orientation. Not all of them do. That being said, heavily research the schools' websites to be

  17. Should I tell the truth before I begin my program?

    Purple_roses replied to tambat's topic in General Students

    You're going to be ok. You have a valid license, and you have time to brush up on skills.

  18. Is it just me, or is this rude, sexist, and condescending?

    Purple_roses replied to RNdynamic's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    What's really creepy is the woman's opener: "So I've been following you..." Nothing good ever comes after those

  19. Special Snowflake!

    Purple_roses replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    Uh oh, we have an identity crisis on our

  20. Parental influence on college education

    Purple_roses replied to Katieaok's topic in General Students

    That's an interesting question. From my experience with acquaintances and friends, the people who are excited about school are the ones who know what they want to do. I've met lots of people who...

  21. Fleas!

    Purple_roses replied to smartypants22's topic in Private Duty

    Well, if you can't leave the case, then you should talk to the owner of the home about getting medicine for the cats as well as flea bombing the entire house and washing any clothes/material that may...

  22. How Important is it that your patients and their families like you?

    Purple_roses replied to Soliloquy's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    It's too exhausting to care about how much people like you. Seriously, that's how you get burned out. It's so much effort, and then when the patient ends up disliking you for a silly reason, you take...

    Purple_roses replied to Wifeoffireman's topic in School, College Programs

    Oh, that's a great idea! I may just have to pick up a second planner too. I basically plan out my entire life, so I'll need lots and lots of white space for everything. Maybe I'll have a work/social...
