  1. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    Im not sure why asking you to back up your claims is wasting your time. You have said that the flu shot is potentiallydangerous and unecessary, and made claims about the safety of vaccines without...

  2. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    I'm still waiting for links to statistics proving 600+ vaccine court payouts and 67 deaths from flu vax. Thanks. You can keep discussing personal experiences and personal beliefs, but beliefs are not...

  3. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    im not sure exactly why you think this is a smoking gun of some sort? It makes perfect sense to me. Can you pinpoint the parts you think means flu is not a serious and deadly

  4. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    are you serious? I'm not even sure what to say. Test positive for flu, die of known complications, death is flu related. That is not anecdotal, it's statistical evidence. And vaers is completely...

  5. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    before we go any further, back up your numbers with a link please. And also a link to where you got your information from regarding time process of vaccine court compensation. You our climbing down...

  6. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    so instead of debating any of the numbers I posted you choose personal attack? Great job trying to prove your point. My apologies on mixing up your numbers. So 400ish confirmed vaccine reactions...

  7. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    My point was that your seeing patients with documented vaccine reactions is anecdotal, not that they had reactions. You admit yourself your experience in the area is limited. You will have nurses that...

  8. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    Just for kicks I will add my anecdotal evidence. Had the flu once in my mid 20's and was so sick I thought I might die. Took me (young, healthy, active) 2 full weeks to recover enough to return to...

  9. What is your opinion on getting the flu shot?

    JustMeRN replied to Surg-OncRN's topic in Holistic

    Im sorry, but what's your point? You acknowledge your "evidence" is all anecdotal, but I'm not exactly sure what point you are trying to

  10. Current WGU RN-BSN Students- Review

    JustMeRN replied to FlipfloppinRN's topic in Western Governors University

    I'm not currently enrolled, just finished in May so recently. There are a lot of papers, but no discussion boards. I finished 40 credits easily in 10-11 months. You have to be self motivated and...

  11. Problems w/student mentor

    JustMeRN replied to RuralMedicCityRN's topic in Western Governors University

    also, I had heard from a student complaining about her mentor that she was told by the mentor group leader that requesting a switch would do her no hood. Mentors are grouped into teams with a leader....

  12. Problems w/student mentor

    JustMeRN replied to RuralMedicCityRN's topic in Western Governors University

    When I first started June 2015 mentors were just transitioning to a set course schedule. When I finished this past May the general rule was you took your classes in the order they were assigned....

  13. Forced to get flu shot or wear a mask

    JustMeRN replied to nurse0614's topic in General Nursing

    this family got ripped to shreds by the more aggressive outspoken antivaxxers. They said some horrifying things and aggressively bullied the family. The story is heartbreaking. I do believe the mom...

  14. Forced to get flu shot or wear a mask

    JustMeRN replied to nurse0614's topic in General Nursing

    Actually, depends on how much you want to pay him. Gossip in the antivax crowd when California vaccine mandates went in to effect was he would write you a medical exemption if you paid out of pocket...

  15. Whats best Online RN to BSN

    JustMeRN replied to vetnrse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    You can't work backwards in a class where the information is new, and it's very bad advice to try. The program most certainly is competancy based. If you have a biochem background you can knock out...

  16. Whats best Online RN to BSN

    JustMeRN replied to vetnrse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I really enjoyed biochem, and though it was quite easy. The course mentor videos were fantastic. The only class I found was poorly designed was community health. I didn't struggle with any of the...

  17. Homeless patient with pneumonia

    JustMeRN replied to tori-alba's topic in General Nursing

    I'm currently a home care nurse, and I have been assigned a start of care visit at a homeless shelter. I never was able to locate the patient for various reasons, but involving home care is an option....

  18. Whats best Online RN to BSN

    JustMeRN replied to vetnrse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    if you are already enrolled (sounds like you might be) you can't challenge your credit transfers. That needs to be done prior to enrolling. WGU had a plethora of resources, find them and use them!...

  19. Whats best Online RN to BSN

    JustMeRN replied to vetnrse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I will chime in having completed the program in the midst of some of the redesigns. It was hard, it was a lot of work, but it is doable. If you talk to anyone who graduated before 2016 expect their...

  20. I have 60 grand of student loan when I finished BSN

    JustMeRN replied to Sam. W's topic in General Nursing

    I don't have a lot of advice for the OP, but for anyone else who is looking for bsn or MSN options there are some much less expensive options available. I got my ASN in 2000, I think I had under 10k...

  21. I have 60 grand of student loan when I finished BSN

    JustMeRN replied to Sam. W's topic in General Nursing

    yes, you want a bsn if you want to be more marketable. I finished my bsn recently through WGU, it was self paced, affordable, and all online. You do need to find time to carve out for school though,...

  22. Orientation for New Grad in Home Health

    JustMeRN replied to NewGradRN114's topic in Home Health

    Fwiw I think it's the right move. I love home care, but I was a hospital nurse 15 years before transitioning. You need a job that helps you grow and developd. Good

  23. Holistic Nurses, what are your thoughts on GMO's

    JustMeRN replied to HeatherMax's topic in Holistic

    "See you later in hospice care." This is ridiculously nasty and uneccesary. The fact of the matter is that you can not support your claim of superiority of organic, so you get nasty and flounce....

  24. Where are all of the holistic nurses?

    JustMeRN replied to PaleoNurse's topic in Holistic

    i would disagree. In a time when medicine has advanced so far it's not ok to continue to use unproven therapies that can have real consequences for patients. And I absolutly refuse to accept the idea...

  25. Orientation for New Grad in Home Health

    JustMeRN replied to NewGradRN114's topic in Home Health

    what you are describing is not a case of not loving a first job, but a case of being placed in a situation which you are a danger to your clients. If the are not willing to train you to the job, and...
