  1. I will not defend nurses anymore

    Purple_roses replied to lost soul's topic in General Nursing

    Why would you be less proud of yourself as a nurse because of what one nurse

  2. Treat Clinical Time with Respect

    Purple_roses replied to MFaf's topic in General Students

    At least they aren't sitting around eating bonbons. I don't think this represents a lackadaisical attitude toward clinicals. I skipped a class last semester (not clinicals granted) to get blood work...

  3. Treat Clinical Time with Respect

    Purple_roses replied to MFaf's topic in General Students

    Why would we flame you for stating that students should take clinicals seriously? I'm not sure what you're asking...or wanting to talk about. Can you

  4. Are We "Glorifying" Nurses?

    Purple_roses replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    Oh where to begin? "Everyone in college could be a nurse." False, just false. In fact, the majority applying to nursing programs do not get in the year they apply. Why? Because it's hard to be smart...

  5. It's not my job to pray with you.

    Purple_roses replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Lost: It is mighty presumptuous to insinuate that *you* know the truth. None of really do--we all have presuppositions, but can prove nothing. It is insanely cruel to debate concepts of religion...

    Purple_roses replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Don't feel sheepish! You seem to be a no-nonsense, good hearted

  7. It's not my job to pray with you.

    Purple_roses replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I think some people may be hesitant to participate in religious rituals or prayer because of bad experiences with religion. I had very very bad experiences with religion as a child, and when I left...

  8. I will not defend nurses anymore

    Purple_roses replied to lost soul's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't the slightest clue as to whether your wife received proper care as I'm a student myself. However, I will say that there are bad eggs in every profession, and so, there will be bad nurses...

  9. Ok Class of 2017, Where are you??

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

    Hello Nikpond and purplecat! Glad you guys found this forum! I'm also hesitant to spend a lot of money, but I do think it's worth it for the stethoscope. I'm trying to decide between the Littmann se 2...

  10. It's not my job to pray with you.

    Purple_roses replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Cocoalover, I agree with you. But I do think the OP was simply saying her/his view this way to *us*. I don't think this is how he/she addresses patients about the

    Purple_roses replied to Lab22's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    From what I hear, most people leave feeling as if they failed. Go relax

  15. It's not my job to pray with you.

    Purple_roses replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    While that's true, if you know that you're attending a Catholic school, I don't think you should be surprised that prayer and a cathedral are all part of that college experience. I do believe that...

  16. RN Starbucks side job?

    Purple_roses replied to borninaugust30's topic in General Nursing

    If you have time for it, then I don't see why that would be a bad thing? Especially if you would enjoy it. Plus, discounts at Starbucks can't be a bad thing, right?

  17. It's not my job to pray with you.

    Purple_roses replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Well if you don't like that, then why are you at that school? You weren't forced to go

    You did! This was spring in a nutshell! All the weird stuff started happening when Esme left. Coincidence? I think not. Someone get her back here before all hell breaks loose

  20. should the press be exempt from adhering to HIPAA laws?

    Purple_roses replied to 1wellnessnurse's topic in General Nursing

    The reporter received information by paying someone to break the law. That's not just overhearing that the athlete lost a finger and reporting it--that would be different. Paying someone to break a...

  23. New to 12's and skin is breaking out! Any tips?

    Purple_roses replied to abbyolivia1's topic in General Nursing

    Get rid of the new things you added for a couple of weeks and see if you improve. It could definitely be one or both of those two things. To remove eye makeup, I use olive oil--it supposedly doesn't...

  24. New to 12's and skin is breaking out! Any tips?

    Purple_roses replied to abbyolivia1's topic in General Nursing

    Are you drinking extra coffee because of the added hours? Or perhaps not drinking enough water? Both of those, plus the added excitement of the shift change, could be potential
