  1. How ready are you for nursing school?

    openyourmind replied to openyourmind's topic in General Students

    sj20fame, you sound like my sister from another mister. Lolol. A little piece inside of me hopes the hospital has at least a little to do with "organized chaos". I used to be baaad but much like you...

  2. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    Very true! If people have the financial capability of going to a for-profit school, good for them. I just personally don't have that option. My tush needed to get in a school with very low tuition...

  3. How ready are you for nursing school?

    openyourmind replied to openyourmind's topic in General Students

    You can do it. I feel weight training is what's really helping me. I do a one mile walk, stretch, then do weights. I can feel my muscles waking up. As long as you develop a good sweat you know you've...

  4. How to get a job working with babies

    openyourmind replied to NeoNatMom's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Because you are getting responses you don't agree with or want to hear, it's a debate? These people are NURSES whereas you haven't even started nursing school yet. They are working the jobs you are...

  5. Walked in on a pt rolling a joint

    openyourmind replied to Anonymous666's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Lol, I noticed I made almost the same exact comment as someone else before me, and too included the words speculation and assumption. It really is just that. I am ultimately confused on how a dying...

  6. Walked in on a pt rolling a joint

    openyourmind replied to Anonymous666's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I've been drug-free & non-smoking since birth (yeah I'm that boring.) But if someone does not have solid proof that any illegal activity is going on, then it is all speculation and assumption. I...

  7. Personal issues while a student?

    openyourmind replied to atmosphericmelody's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    I don't have any advice to give. Just wanted to wish you the best in your situation and let you know that you're not alone. I too have a few medical issues that I pray won't get the best of me while...

  8. Full Moon Friday the 13th

    openyourmind replied to Biffbradford's topic in General Nursing

    This thread! Please do share stories.

  9. PASSED the NCLEX in 75 questions!

    openyourmind replied to nurserachael33's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congrats wow!!! Job well done. Is there anyway you can upload the study guides and share the link so you don't go crazy emailing everyone? I too would love to have

  10. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    Did you actually read my post? I'm sure I have the right to mock myself by calling myself a loser. Roflmao! I promise I am not

  11. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks TiffyRN for actually showing the differences with logical reasons, and making a clear point, without resorting to name-calling or ranting with no aim. What a breath of fresh air! Sadly I only...

  12. "It's Not That Special --

    openyourmind replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This. Not everybody can handle honesty/criticism from people without getting their feelings hurt. I've noticed those who believe they are righteous can't take anything with a grain of salt. Pride is...

  13. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    Wow, an essay I have no interest in reading! Anyway, apparently people have no right to an opinion. I personally would not attend a for-profit school, nor would I recommend a friend to. It doesn't...

  14. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    I was not referring to GCU. I don't think I even mentioned GCU on my post anywhere. However I have heard of schools like chamberlain that have ridiculous tuition costs for a nursing degree. I admit I...

  15. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't think I need to do anything about that. I wasn't aware that I started letting the opinions of others make decisions for me...? Just being

  16. I Hope No One Hires You

    openyourmind replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    Karma is now the angel of death. News to me! Don't quit your job without notice guys. Btw, "karma" only affects people who believe in it. That's the beauty of the universe, one is capable of...

  17. Anyone been asked inappropriate interview questions?

    openyourmind replied to laKrugRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Wow! Some of those questions are just...

  18. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    Anyone who is paying 80 grand for a nursing degree is almost always guaranteed admission vs trying to get in a state college. A lot of people who are turned down by the more competitive programs...

  19. Anyone been asked inappropriate interview questions?

    openyourmind replied to laKrugRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    If you don't mind sharing what kinds of questions you were

  20. Why would nurses voluntarily sign up at for profit schools?

    openyourmind replied to RNdynamic's topic in School, College Programs

    My curiosity is which would a nurse recruiter hire: someone who got their ADN degree at a competitive, affordable school, or someone who went to a noncompetitive for-profit school and recieved a

  21. Anyone been asked inappropriate interview questions?

    openyourmind replied to laKrugRN's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I hope I don't get asked inappropriate questions when I'm finally where you are. But honestly, considering how it is none of anyone's business, what stops someone from lying or just simply saying...

  22. Today a patient asked, "Do you know Jesus?"

    openyourmind replied to algebra_demystified's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think what bothers me about most fundamentalists is that they are too caught up in their own fantasy. There's a difference between knowing directly and just knowing about something they read out of...

  23. Today a patient asked, "Do you know Jesus?"

    openyourmind replied to algebra_demystified's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    But guuuuuyss, what if you TOTALLY know

  24. I Hope No One Hires You

    openyourmind replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I honestly feel people should be given a way out if they just need to get out, especially if it's a really abusive or under-staffed facility. People who need that escape probably would do more harm if...

  25. How ready are you for nursing school?

    openyourmind replied to openyourmind's topic in General Students

    All I've been hearing from other students is that they wish they just relaxed and enjoyed their summer before nursing school. Considering I haven't been in their shoes I decided to take their advice....
