    3rdGenRN replied to allnurses's topic in Emergency

    We will certainly never get anywhere when we have nurses that discount the whole concept like the above comments. I almost didn't make it through my new grad orientation because my preceptor was such...

    3rdGenRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    3rdGenRN replied to midwife1990's topic in School, College Programs

    I honestly can't remember what we needed a card for. If they do it the same way they did it for us: Primarily 90% of your books will be in a big boxed set, it will be at a several hundred $ discount...

  14. Just a Nurse

    3rdGenRN replied to Guttercat's topic in General Nursing

    Everyone STOP "justing" themselves! Not JUST a nurse, not JUST a mom, not JUST a secretary, not JUST a tech! Stop putting yourself down. Don't belittle your place in the

  15. Therapeutic Communication

    3rdGenRN posted a topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Interpersonal communication is by far my weakest aspect in nursing school. I knew it coming in, I took a course directed at it for my communications prerequisite, and I have been trying on my own to...

  17. nursing & tattoos

    3rdGenRN replied to SN2014's topic in General Nursing

    I live in one of the most conservative metro areas in the US and it's not frowned on here. That's why I find it so shocking people would have this problem. Kind of makes me wonder if since the average...

  21. NVCC - Potential applicant - How competitive is it?

    3rdGenRN replied to Mindylane's topic in Virginia Nursing

  22. Nursing and the Ebola Virus

    3rdGenRN replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Disaster Preparation

    If you read the actual study, they clearly report they could not determine if the virus was spread by respiratory droplets, or even the floor cleaning causing overspray. It's flawed to say it proves...

  23. Nursing and the Ebola Virus

    3rdGenRN replied to 0.adamantite's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That was an airborne strain that was only as deadly as it was to the monkeys because of coinfection with another hemorrhagic monkey virus. While some humans test positive after exposure, no human has...
