Thought some of you might be interested in tihs recent article. http://www.cnn.com/2003/HEALTH/09/24/educated.nurses.ap/index.html

It would be easy....All you have to do is run a high pressure hose to an oxygen tank attach an adapter to the end of the high pressure hose, then attach the adapter to the 24 guage butterfly, run back out to the nurses desk and open the oxygen tank.....

I will try to answer your question from my own experience. Prior to Nursing School I had TWO DUI's. When I first entered nursing school you had to list felonies. In my state three DUI's in 5 years is a felony...not two. So, I did not list them. Howev...

Nurse Ratched, Juding form your post....You either lack the "sense" or control or whatever you want to call it, to control your tongue. Don't apologize in one sentence and then repeat the same offensive statement in the next paragraph. Just my opini...

Nurse Ratched said, " May not have sense enough to know when to quit (or less sense than average!)" Alcoholism, or any addiction for that matter has nothing at all to do with the person's intellectual capacity... If this is the attitude you have to...

I wonder if I could sue the condom company...I bought one, laid it beside the bed during sex...and my wife still got pregnant.

JT, I nominate you for the "Nursing Advocate of the Year Award ". You are always striving to make our working environment better for the rest of us. As soon as I complete my MSN (this Monday [YAHOO]), I will be joining you on the frontline...too figh...

In society, your innocent until proven guilty. In nursing, your guilty until proven innocent!!!

jt,

Regardless of how many times this topic comes up...the answers will always be biased. Those who have the higher degree believe, and rightly so, that they should be appropriately compensated for their education. Those who don't have a higher degree be...

You can fill out the FAFSA on the web. Just go to the following link. http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/

She may just be making up excuses for not learning what she should have learned in her clinicals. You see them...those that sidestepped, hid, procrastinated, avoided, etc. etc. ...and by the way, they're in every program... ADN, BSN, MSN...and believ...

You can also receive an online BSN degree from the University of Alabama. They initiated this program the year after I graduated (shucks). However, we did get to partake in the pilot program by taking one class online. It was absolutely wonderful. Yo...

Be careful......If she wants to go smoke, she will go smoke, whether "A NURSE" is with her or not. Don't know what type of disease she has but it doesn't sound like she should be going off without someone...we are liable while she is in our facility ...

This, among many other things, will help to keep our profession in the sub-standard category. Someone please tell me in what other profession does the attainment of a higher degree not come with the attainment of more money. Just curious.

Yeh we do sleepyeyes: Too many duties...not enough pay!!!

Hey sleepyeyes, I double-checked for you ?cc=80mg if 2cc 125/mg =160/mg 125mg =1.28 or 1.3cc

I am currently in a Family Nurse Practitioner program with an anticipated graduation date of Aug 03, 2002. I don't know what kind of program the other students went to in the above post, where they claim to not have gotten any clinical hours. We get ...

Like I have said before....nothing like being united to improve our profession. Better yet though...let's backstab and nit-pick.

If you have a minute, I need some input from other nurses. I am building a website which is focused on the educational requirements and the career opportunities in nursing. If you would just take a minute to click on the link and provide me with feed...

Lrae, I have added more information on continuing education (online courses) even for an ADN degree and professional organizations as well.

You are so right. I have already made corrections to the site before hand. Instead of a diploma, it is a certificate of graduation. Thanks for your input and advise. Keep it coming.

It must have been some type of error, when I revisited and clicked on her link I was directed to her site. Others have also commented that they were able to view the site. Thanks for the comments.

Thanks, Paramedic52.
