1. Adn Vs Bsn

   selectallthatapply replied to Schwabee524's topic in General Students

   I really think it depends on the individual. I'm in an ADN program, and I made the choice because of time and cost. It's the quickest route to being an RN, and my school has a bridge program with a couple of universities so I can finish up my BSN onc...

2. Underage drinking question? please help

   selectallthatapply replied to xjay22's topic in General Students

   I don't think how a person behaves at a party has much to do with how they behave at work. I don't expect nurses to behave like nuns, especially when they're "off the clock". That's all.

3. Underage drinking question? please help

   selectallthatapply replied to xjay22's topic in General Students

   If people couldn't become nurses because they did something dumb at 19 then we would have a real nursing shortage.

4. Concealed Carry for Caregivers

   selectallthatapply replied to ClaraRedheart's topic in General Nursing

   Interesting idea. Possession of drugs shouldn't be a punishable offense. Plotting a murder should be acceptable because laws are in place to punish murder. Possession of child pornography should be considered fine, because laws already acknowledge ma...

5. Concealed Carry for Caregivers

   And you didn't comprehend what I wrote, did you? "Things aren't made illegal to make problems disappear". I hate repeating myself, it's tedious! I hate repeating myself, it's tedious!

6. Concealed Carry for Caregivers

   selectallthatapply replied to ClaraRedheart's topic in General Nursing

   Following this logic, we shouldn't have any laws because criminals will "do bad things" anyway. Things aren't made illegal to make problems disappear. Things are illegal so we can punish people.

7. Is it safe to honk at drivers on cellphones?

   selectallthatapply replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

   I don't know, I think if you're startled or distracted by honking to the point that it may cause an issue for you then you really shouldn't be driving.

8. Nursing Student Peers Who Want to Mooch

   selectallthatapply replied to katiejames7878's topic in General Students

   This is something that I've been trying hard to remember/apply: "No." is a complete sentence.

9. Should Healthcare Professionals Ask About Guns in the Home?

   selectallthatapply replied to P-RN's topic in General Nursing

   Because if this thread has taught us anything it's that people who own guns are terribly paranoid

10. Applying to nursing school this year... is a baby a terrible idea?

    selectallthatapply replied to Chrisley's topic in Pre-Nursing

    No, you literally couldn't do that because I'm not telling anyone not to respond to me. It wouldn't make any sense. Adults tend to avoid the "I'm rubber, you're glue..." nonsense. But thank you for your response, it was very thoughtful. OP: I would ...

11. Applying to nursing school this year... is a baby a terrible idea?

    selectallthatapply replied to Chrisley's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I did consider your point of view. I considered it wrong. If you can't handle people disagreeing with you, I would recommend keeping your views to yourself. I didn't assume anything about you, I responded to something you wrote on a public forum. I c...

12. Applying to nursing school this year... is a baby a terrible idea?

    selectallthatapply replied to Chrisley's topic in Pre-Nursing

    This is astonishingly ignorant. Working mothers are still raising their children, nannies and day cares aren't doing it for them. Based on your post (I would assume you think that because a child needs their mother, they need their father as well?), ...

13. Am I in nursing for the wrong reasons?

    selectallthatapply replied to lieutenant dan's topic in General Students

    No one said this. As for everything else, no one is going to be perfect on their second day of clinicals. The options aren't "be an excellent nurse on your second day of clinicals or quit". Not to mention, a nurse can do an excellent job and their p...

14. Am I in nursing for the wrong reasons?

    selectallthatapply replied to lieutenant dan's topic in General Students

    It's good to be excited about your job, nurse or not. Who said the OP was doing a lousy job? It's their second day of clinicals, so they aren't really anyone's nurse yet. What's wrong with using "disgruntled"?

15. Typical nursing school schedule?

    selectallthatapply replied to lolly78's topic in General Students

    This semester we have clinicals on Tuesday and Wednesday from 8-12/1, then we have lecture on Thursday from 9-12. Next semester our clinicals are 8-2 and we have 2 days of lecture, I think from 9-12.
