    MD can't walk across the room to get a chart

    labcat01 replied to Foxfour's topic in General Nursing

    I probably would have done one of two things: 1- tell the MD something to the effect of "I'll be with you in just a minute- let me finish this up first" and then taken a LONG time OR 2. Gotten the...

    labcat01 replied to packerbacker's topic in Texas Nursing

    I know exactly what you mean :chuckle You would still get your official letter but they notify earlier by email. I would LOVE it if my school would do that instead of making me wait until

    Former NICU moms becoming NICU nurses?

    labcat01 replied to fmrnicumom's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    I'm only a student so I can't express the views of a NICU nurse but I know several people who have had babies in the NICU and ALL of them have expressed interest in NICU nursing. You are definitely...

    Managing Perceptions (male nurse/student in OB)

    labcat01 replied to Works2xs's topic in General Nursing

    Kids Exposed to Bacterial Meningitis

    labcat01 replied to AggieNurse2B's topic in Texas Nursing

    That is just awful! Here's what i'd suggest. Ask the school first to see if they have any "inside" info to give you (but they probably won't- it depends on your relationship with them). I'm willing to...

    Already Have a BA, do I need to get a BSN?

    labcat01 replied to Newbie Nurse SMP's topic in General Nursing

    I think you can. You might want to try looking up alternate entry MSN programs. I know that the University of Texas has a program for people with B.A. degrees to get their RN and MSN in about 3 years....
