    UT-Houston Fall 2007 Applicants

    Kim O'Therapy replied to SuperPaige's topic in Texas Nursing

    I got mine too and it said the same thing! :eek: During the interview, we discussed taking my Philosophy and Humanities over the summer. Well, I guess UT will be bombarded with calls on Monday. I'm...

    Not impressed with clinical group and instructor

    Kim O'Therapy replied to 1Tulip's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Yes! I've had instructors who had better not see you standing still. Now, I have one that kind of lets the students do their own thing. Sometimes, I'm running my a## off looking after ALL aspects...

    Kim O'Therapy posted a topic in General Nursing

    Patient advocate vs. Being Nosey

    Kim O'Therapy replied to Kim O'Therapy's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with you. I do have an update. Last night, XYZ came in, slammed down her books, and headed back out to the nurses station to pick a new chart! I guess she took my e-mail to heart or assumed...

    Patient advocate vs. Being Nosey

    Kim O'Therapy replied to Kim O'Therapy's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunatly, I think she's pushing the issue because she wants an "easy" patient. My notes + immobile pt + very few meds + no incontinence + sister always there = easier work

    Are you Man Enough to be an OB nurse?

    Kim O'Therapy replied to Annointed_RNStudent's topic in Men in Nursing

    Your post makes sense. I can understand a male/female comfort level among patients. If a client prefers all male, or female, care (if it can be accommadated), the patients comfort level should be...

    Are you Man Enough to be an OB nurse?

    Kim O'Therapy replied to Annointed_RNStudent's topic in Men in Nursing

    Kim O'Therapy replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a forty-something nursing student and go to school with "the self-esteem generation." Not all, but most want their degrees on a silver platter. I feel that tact and understanding are necessary...

    Kim O'Therapy replied to SuperPaige's topic in Texas Nursing

    Have you checked UTLink? You can always accept TWU and then decline if UT offers you a spot. Trust me, I learned the hard way not to turn any offers

    Kim O'Therapy replied to SuperPaige's topic in Texas Nursing

    OK, I have few silly questions. 1. Am I going to be the "oldest" one in the group? I'm 40. 2. Will we be considered Longhorns
