  1. How to ask if you can use an employee as a reference..

    blah_blah_blah replied to blah_blah_blah's topic in General Nursing

    I'm just worried that I'll be asking too much. I don't want to wear out my welcome so to speak. I guess I'll just have to think up a way to ask where i don't look like a jerk

    blah_blah_blah replied to kblas's topic in General Students

  3. Patients family in the medical field

    blah_blah_blah replied to dreamer30's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    this reminds me of that one episode of Grey's Anatomy where Callie's patient wanted to consult their "doctor son" before they went ahead with a surgery. Turns out the son was an

  4. How to list education and awards on resume

    blah_blah_blah posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Hello all! Now that I have graduated with my BSN and have been inducted into STTI, I am updating my resume. I wanted to add my graduation honors to my resume for obvious reasons, but I don't know if...

  5. Can you succeed in BSN programs without Chemisty?

    blah_blah_blah replied to meganthe's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    my ADN program didn't require it, but my BSN did. I had to google "dimensional analysis" because I had no idea what it was, and that is because it was called the factor label method at my school. I...

  6. I really want to be a nurse but..

    blah_blah_blah replied to SarahOsorio's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would also like to add that for me, learning the math for nursing school was easier because I WANTED to learn it. I did NOT want to take college algebra (required for the major I was in before I...

  7. Family issue..Thoughts?

    blah_blah_blah replied to jrabbit619's topic in General Students

    I didn't read all the responses, so excuse me if I repeat someone else, but as someone else said you are an adult. You do not owe her an explanation for your life choices. You do not need to plan your...

  8. I really want to be a nurse but..

    blah_blah_blah replied to SarahOsorio's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Dude. I absolutely suck at math. I was in a remedial math for most of middle school, barely passed math in high school, and I had to take a remedial math course my freshman year of college before they...

  9. Student Loan Debt

    blah_blah_blah replied to RN3307's topic in General Students

    that is crazy for an associates. I went to CC for free thanks to federal and state financial aid as well as a scholarship. No loans whatsoever. Even if I did't have the scholarship, I would only pay...

  11. Schools push APRN immediately-$$

    blah_blah_blah replied to Jules A's topic in General Nursing

    I get where you're coming from, but I feel as though nurses with no CNA/tech/MA experience is a completely different ballgame than an NP with no RN experience. CNA/tech experience can be very helpful...

  12. Schools push APRN immediately-$$

    blah_blah_blah replied to Jules A's topic in General Nursing

    I suppose I should have explained myself better. I would feel as though I was acting irresponsibly by entering into an NP program as a new grad RN with no experience. The NCLEX is just a minimum...

  13. Schools push APRN immediately-$$

    blah_blah_blah replied to Jules A's topic in General Nursing

    I'm an RN and I will be graduating with my BSN on Saturday. A lot of my classmates are already applying to NP programs (we all graduated together from the same CC last May). They are currently working...

  14. "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

    blah_blah_blah replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can even try buying or renting the older editions of your books offline as well! They'll be even cheaper than the newest edition and for the most part just as good! page numbers for reading may be...

  15. Thoughts on nurses who graduate nursing school calling themselves nurses before the NCLEX

    blah_blah_blah replied to pmabraham's topic in General Students

    she is a NURSE just not a REGISTERED nurse I suppose. That does kind of irk me when people misrepresent themselves though. This may sound petty but this girl I went to CC with and that I follow on...

  16. "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

    blah_blah_blah replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm personally all for renting texbooks as well, but not my nursing books. almost all of my nursing books I used throughout my ADN program and even into my BSN. The only ones I rented were non nursing...

  17. "Don't Work" Isn't An Answer

    blah_blah_blah replied to mirandaaa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  18. Malpractice insurance?

    blah_blah_blah posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm a new grad looking for a job and I thought it would be a good idea to also look into malpractice insurance. What insurance companies do you get your malpractice insurance through and what do you...

  19. Malpractice insurance?

    blah_blah_blah replied to blah_blah_blah's topic in General Nursing

    thanks for all the replies everyone! I'm seriously so happy to find out malpractice insurance is so cheap! I was expecting $100 a MONTH. Even if it was that expensive, I would still pay it for peace...

    blah_blah_blah replied to blah_blah_blah's topic in General Nursing

    blah_blah_blah posted a topic in General Nursing

    I hope I don't jinx myself with this, but I applied for a job at a facility in mid April (4/14 to be exact) and have yet to hear anything back. This facility is also really good about sending out...
