  1. Become a nurse in just 12 months!!!

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to askater11's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Like it or not, nursing is going the way of "Cracker Jack Box" degrees. At least, that is what many people I have talked to feel like. This either means nursing is way underrated or way

  2. NP Scope of Practice

    Neilsbiggestfan posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I currently live in Tennessee and would like to become a NP. Ultimately, I would like to open a small rural clinic, possibly providing a large portion of my services to the Amish. I am familiar with...

  3. Evil OB

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to Dayray's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I am a very gentle person and would definitely feel violated as a patient if he handled me this way. I would be very upset and angry. I can't believe there have not been complaints against this

  4. I am sick and tired of being asked "Who is watching your kids?"

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to ShayRN's topic in General Nursing

    I know how you feel exactly. I get sick of having to give explanations about where my children are and who they are with. I homeschool my children, and it is as bad when you have them out during the...

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to Mama2-3's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Yes, that strikes me as very odd. It seems like there is a lot of the puzzle that is

  7. question for private duty nurses...any out there?

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to ArwenEvenstar's topic in Private Duty

    I work private duty and love it, but it has always been a real pain in the neck when it comes to asking for any time off, the staffing coordinator acts like I'm just asking too much. The pay is fair...

  8. Verbal abuse in the OR

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to JaneRNBSN's topic in Operating Room

    Can you imagine what it must be like to be married to this

  9. Am I Being Too Sensitive

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to itsjustme's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, me

  10. When did you take off for maternity leave?

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to MSMCnurse2004's topic in General Nursing

    When I had my last child, I worked up until the night she was born. I worked the 3-11 shift at a LTC facility and in the evenings when things would quiet down I would sit in an office chair and roll...

  11. Interested in becoming a FNP

    Neilsbiggestfan posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have an associate degree in nursing and am interested in possibly becoming a FNP and working out of my own office doing humanitarian cases in a rural area. Would a school take me seriously if I have...

  12. Trouble getting job

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to Kashlee's topic in Online Distance Learning

    It's not true to say these states will not accept the degree, because the only state not accepting Excelsior graduates at all is California. These other states that don't directly accept the degree...

  13. Is there any CRNA schools that did not fill seats

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to sw21 RN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    But there is an age limit on joining the army resrves? At 30 I think I've missed that

  14. Oh what a night!

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to dinkymouse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    If I walked in and read that on the communication sheet I'd turn around and walk back out. Seriously, a sense of humor is a MUST in the nursing home, an absolute MUST. The only way the staff and I...

  15. EKG class/ACLS/PALS

    Neilsbiggestfan posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm currently a home health RN who would like to get some training to work in ICU. I'm signed up for the mentioned classes, but is there something else I should consider?

  16. Looking for work in Cali!!!!!!!!!!!

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to shunnaparks's topic in General Nursing

    What a wonderful thought that a person could work for a few months pulling in around $15 grand a month and go back home to live the rest of the year and not have to worry about working! Maybe I'm just...

  17. EKG class/ACLS/PALS

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to Neilsbiggestfan's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I've never actually worked in a hospital. Out of nursing school I worked in a nursing home and now am doing home health. I'd just like a change. I realize that it was a mistake not to get some...

  18. working vs school, not seeing kids

    Neilsbiggestfan replied to texas_lvn's topic in General Nursing

    Texas LVN, I empathize with you wholly. I have three children ages 4, 6 and 8 and I cannot remember a time I wasn't either going to school or working. I feel like I missed out on a lot of precious...
