  1. FLAME ON!

    Red Kryptonite replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

    OK frankly, I think heavy-handed mods deserve a little crisping on this thread now. The moderation on this board has always struck me as much more noticeable than on other boards. However when a...

  2. The Story of Jahi Continues

    Red Kryptonite replied to EaglesWings21's topic in Nursing News

    How about adding a provision that states if you grant interviews and post on social media about the issue, you have waived your HIPAA rights by making part of the medical record public, and the...

  3. I am the wife of a male student nurse and having trouble coping.

    Red Kryptonite replied to Theotherone's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Okay now that I've read/skimmed the whole thread, I have a question: you're both in school, he only works part time, and you seem to be a housewife. (No disrespect, I was a SAHM for 15 years before...

  4. I am the wife of a male student nurse and having trouble coping.

    Red Kryptonite replied to Theotherone's topic in Health, Stress Management

    What the what? Oh heck no. This is biggest, reddest flag I ever saw. Regardless of what else is happening, this is a huge issue. My husband has never talked with any of my classmates, only because...

  5. How to pay for school?

    Red Kryptonite replied to nickimarie93's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Mine too, especially considering that using my community college system, I'll be able to finish my current LPN program, then take all my prereqs, and then bridge to RN for less than

  6. Staying healthy and fit in nursing school

    Red Kryptonite replied to WonderousIvy's topic in LPN to RN

    I'd be up for that. I lost a lot of weight a couple years ago and have gained back a few pounds during this first

  7. Scared!!

    Red Kryptonite replied to altmer_aldmeri's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Holy moly....run. Not kidding. First, if you're classified as a caregiver and not a CNA, no it won't count as CNA experience. Second, UAP passing meds. Third, no nurse on duty. Get out now, this...

    Red Kryptonite replied to studentih's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Mmmkay.

  9. Transcript on hold

    Red Kryptonite replied to studentih's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can tell you what will happen. Nursing programs get thousands of applications every year, and any that don't meet the minimum requirements, no matter what the reason, will be filed in the "circular...

  11. Why are we in LPN school?

    Red Kryptonite replied to Creedyfbaby's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    $35,000 may not be much to some people, but it's still better money than I've ever made. With my husband's larger but fairly stagnant salary and very safe job, my ability to earn that much will put...

  12. Scared!!

    Red Kryptonite replied to altmer_aldmeri's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Erm....no background check? No checking references? This person hired you right after you walked in and filled out an app? Yeah, that would give me pause. What was the paperwork? Normal hiring...

  13. Evolution and Nursing

    Red Kryptonite replied to TheFowldogg's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    I'm as religious as they come, and I find this offensive. It violates the biblical command not to judge, first of all. That verse gets so misused by people who just don't want their behavior called...

    Red Kryptonite replied to childcare1's topic in School

    Um.....OW?!

  15. Duties of an LPN in hospice nursing?

    Red Kryptonite replied to northmississippi's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    I'm not a LPN yet (in school) but I work hospice with LPNs. I work mostly inpatient units, and our LPNs take patient assignments alongside RNs. The biggest difference is that they can't do IV meds...

    Red Kryptonite replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

  21. Evolution and Nursing

    Red Kryptonite replied to TheFowldogg's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    He did. You're assuming that creation vs. evolution is a battle. Some people make it one unnecessarily. God created everything and started all the processes. The fossil record and...

  22. Evolution and Nursing

    Red Kryptonite replied to TheFowldogg's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    That poster assumes we can fit God into our own level of moral construct and understanding. His ways are not our ways, as the Bible clearly says. I don't presume to think I can understand...

  23. Maricopa Waiting List / Placement / Timestamps 2010+

    Red Kryptonite replied to Maciso's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Interesting. How much did they increase the required HESI score, because forgive me, but the threshold did seem awfully low when I went through the process. (I'm currently halfway through my first...

    Red Kryptonite replied to GemRN10's topic in Post Graduate Students

    There are laws in place that help military and their dependents get out of several kinds of legal contracts due to PCS orders. I don't know about an employment contract specifically as I never dealt...
