    Is there any risks in becoming an Oncology nurse?

    To piggyback on this post about the potential fertility issues of being an oncology nurse...does anyone here receive any form of hazard pay? Are you paid extra for having the ONS/Chemo certification?...
  2. Hi everyone! As the title says, I have been hired to work in the emergency rooms of a few local hospitals. I will be working as a medical scribe and assisting the ED physicians with the EMR,...

    Pre-nursing student seeking advice: MA vs CNA?

    CNA would probably be the best transition to bedside nursing. Personally, I was a medical scribe. I learned an enormous amount of pharmacology, medical terminology, and the flow of the ER. I credit...

    Should I study nursing at this age?

    I'm sure India has plenty of work for nurses, and you already have a foot in the door of the healthcare system there. Why are you thinking of moving to the

    Nursing school help

    Okay, with that outburst aside, please understand that we are trying to help you. The people on this thread are nurses and student nurses who have been there and are trying to tell you that a poor...
  6. Thank you. I have busted my butt in my RN program so far and gone through the most stressful academic experience of my life and it infuriates me when pre-nursing students say they're a "nursing...

    Daytona State College RN Program Fall 2016??

    For those of you concerned about your TEAS scores, I just wanted to let you know that DSC only considers the TEAS score if you have exactly the same GPA as another student and they have to pick one of...

    Nursing school help

    Besides the question of getting accepted to nursing school with such a poor GPA, it's also important to remember that nursing school will likely lower your GPA. In the case of my program, I got...

    Planning a wedding in nursing school?

    My boyfriend proposed to me during my first semester of nursing school. We have firmly decided to wait unti I graduate (May 2017) to start wedding planning. Nursing school and holding a job is hard...
  10. You might be a bit confused regarding how nursing programs typically work (or I just may not have understood your post correctly). You will need to complete pre-requisites in college before you can be...

    Help, completely confused (pre-nursing, entry-level jobs, etc)

    In my semester right before my RN program started, I took 2 science courses (with labs) with 3 other pre-reqs all together. With a job in the ER working nights. Managed to make straight A's that...
  12. In my state, LPN's cannot make assessments or provide a nursing diagnosis, so my guess is that it's not the same. We don't do "concept maps for diseases", we create a care plan gathering data and...

    Difficulty of nursing school?

    I got straight A's in my pre-reqs and I am now a B/B+ student in my RN program. Most of the information isn't too difficult to grasp, but there is a huge volume of work for a short time, especially...

    Bad semester...

    I'm sorry you had a tough semester. Is there a way you could retake those classes? Unfortunately, I don't think C's will fly so well at NYU for your
  15. If this is the case, unless you go for a for-profit BSN program, there's no chance in hell to get into any other BSN or ADN program with a 2.1, I'm sorry to be so blunt. Also, I have no idea where you...

    Should I take a year off before nursing school?

    Hi there, I'm a FL nursing student originally from another state. Personally, I waited for residency before starting my nursing program. It was an enormous difference in tuition and any of the schools...

    A&P 1 or 2 with micro?

    I took Micro, A&P II, and 3 other pre-reqs together and made straight A's that semester. It's extremely

    Can I still be a nurse?

    My program makes it absolutely mandatory to be vaccinated, which includes an annual PPD and an annual flu shot. If you do not comply, you will not be allowed on your clinical sites. Also, as someone...

    How to balance work and a/p?

    I don't know how many hours you work, but it shouldn't be a problem if you exercise proper time management (which you will need for nursing school). The semester before I started my program, I took...

    Entry level positions as ED/ER Tech?

    I would get your CNA. I work in the ED and the techs either have their CNA, or are

    Help ! Chamberlain??

    This is just my limited experience from working in the ED, so take it with a grain of salt. The hospital I work for does not hire grads from for-profit institutions. In fact, they prefer to hire ADN...

    Opinions on nursing students?

    Hi there, student nurse here! Do you mind if I ask your opinion on what we can do to rectify this issue? In regards to the issue of new grads hopping onto the job market in hordes, do you believe that...

    I'm at a crossroad. Should I go into nursing?

    I am so glad that you looked into the accreditation for your (possible) future nursing program. My advice? DO NOT go into a program that is in danger of losing its accreditation. Not just because of...

    I'm failing anatomy!

    I'm sorry, that really sucks. You need to be introspective and figure out what your resources are for preventing this problem next time. See if you have a learning center that can help you with test...

    Problems with Florida licensure

    Congrats on almost graduating! Are you referring to your ATT? From what I've heard, it can take anywhere from 1 week to 1 month before getting confirmation to take
