This could have ended tragically. I worked with a female psychiatrist who lost her license to practice medicine when she got involved with one of her patients. He committed suicide and his parents found evidence of their affair and moved forward with...

I was wondering if you brought this concern up to your leadership? It’s really easy to place blame rather than accept responsibility. If you are BLS certified you should know how to use an EpiPen. BLS = BASIC LIFE SUPPORT. Emphasis on BASIC.

You should not be administering vaccines if you do not know how to safely use an EpiPen. Being a nurse is more than just passively waiting to be trained. You have to make sure you practice nursing safely. Your bio says you have been practicing nursin...

Hi my dear. When I read your post I instantly became worried? Do you live alone? Should you be driving? Passing out unexpectedly is frightening. Please stay on your doctor to help with a diagnosis. Best of luck to you!

Johnson & Johnson has "paused" their advertising on The View and Eggland's Best states they "will no longer be advertising on the show in question". Well done, Joy Behar

Wow! Shocked, saddened, and puzzled. May they all RIP.

Looks like OP just joined AN just to rant. Now he/she is gone. I say good riddance.

I was watching I Am Cait and a trans woman named Blossom Brown said she was denied entrance into nursing schoolbecause she is trans. She ended up getting a check presented to her on the Ellen show for $20,000 to help her get into nursing school. Has ...

Just because they offer you the lower rate doesn't mean you have to accept it. Try to negotiate for a higher rate. At least $30/hr. I say go for the M/S position. Good luck:sarcastic:

Hi OP! Being nervous is ok-just don't let it paralyze you. The beauty of nursing is that it is so much more than being "book smart". In nursing school you will get to practice the theories and concepts taught in the classroom. Study groups helped me...

Wait! You've only been a nursing student for one(1) month? You make some major assumptions and mean statements in your posts. You might want to do some self reflection. But, you haven't even given the director a chance. Why not see how things play ou...

Hi OP. in all honesty, sometimes there is no remedy for mistakes made by others. For example, I got a state tax lien placed against me in error. You think your situation is a big deal?? Try to get ANY type of credit if buy a home with this albatross ...

OP, can you provide some examples that help us understand your complaint?

Here's the thing: if Blossom really was denied admission on the basis of being a transgender woman, the Caitlyn's and Ellens in her life would have already paid for her to fight the legal battles. Like someone said earlier it's probably just a PR stu...

WOW!! So sorry to hear about your nightmare. When I was in nursing school, I had an OR rotation (like most) and the hospital's assigned preceptor for this rotation was a true condescending, mean spirited, jerk. It was his job to show the nursing stud...

I guess my question is this: do you meet the qualifications for the RN II position? You may be able to call their HR department and gather more information. Much luck!!

I totally agree. You did the right thing.

If that is truly what your daughter wants to pursue, more power to her. My husband and I taught our kids to go after their dreams, not money. I have a son that is a teacher and the other on the way to become a vet. It's their life and they need to fi...

This crossed my mind, too!!

Swellbow--usually from a mechanical fall Escape Artists--able to get OOB despite all side rails being up and/or get out of restaints/posy vest Lola-all lil ole ladie May other I know have already been posted (FOS, milk of amnesia, GOMER)

I agree. Not enough details to be believable.

I read inconsistencies in her version of the story Caitlyn Jenner Blogs for WhoSay: Meet Blossom Brown : People.com she calls her course work at the Community College level "undergraduate", does not mention completing prerequisites, and states sh up...

This is how it's post to be!

I have a difficult time believing that any school would deny admission based on gender identity. I think there is more to the story than meets the eye.

I took Inorganic and Organic Chemistry as pre-requisites for nursing school. High school Chemistry was different. The college I took the 2 classes had free tutoring. Hang in they and much luck!
