    Facebook and employers/school

    Employers absolutely will make wrongful judgments about us based off of social media. The existence of that does not simultaneously justify it. Simply because we can be fired for doing something...
  2. If you have a decent professor it's definitely doable. Your time management skills need to be perfect

    Lone Star College Fall 2016 hopefulls?

    I'm trying to figure out the same thing. I got my finger printing done on the 18th and I still haven't gotten a blue card in the mail. I know I don't have any criminal history whatsoever so I'm not...

    Can I still be a nurse?

    My school makes an exception for people like you so there is hope. They just require documentation of vaccinations and titers to show the person

    Going Back at 40 years old...

    The older students in my classes almost always did better than the 18/19 year olds. You're more responsible at this age and know exactly what you want. I bet you'll do
  7. I get where you're coming from. I had a similar feeling because of how challenging my semester was. I opted for a 6 week pharmacology course in the summer instead of 12 weeks so I could have a break...

    Can nursing be for me?

    There seem to be so many directions you can take with nursing if you pursue a high enough education. There are many other things you could do aside from just bedside care, I'm sure I don't need to...

    Has anyone received an email about Castle Branch yet or had any success in setting up an account with them? And has anyone received an email for the directions about the fast pass criminal records...

    Lone Star College Fall 2016 hopefulls?

    So I applied and got accepted to Montgomery but I just noticed my acceptance letter says I was selected for admission into the associate degree nursing *articulation* track program... Not basic track....

    Lone Star College Fall 2016 hopefulls?

    What are the odds of them having made some horrible mistake, like not submitting my application/forgetting to ask me to include something then automatically rejecting me? My brain is honestly not...

    Lone Star College Fall 2016 hopefulls?

    I applied to NH as my second choice, Montgomery being my first. Have a 7.776 and haven't heard anything yet... No email or anything. What gives? Do they only send one acceptance letter, meaning others...

    F's and W will i be able to get a job in nursing?

    A lot of students in my anatomy and physiology classes have struggled for very legitimate reasons as well and generally the best idea is to either postpone nursing school until, say, the kids get a...
  19. Hmm, I don't think you're loading your semesters up enough. Remember, psychology is going to be your easy class. I'd take chem, micro, and lifespan at the same time but it depends on how confident you...

    Reflections after my first code

    This reminds me of the ICU nurses that took care of my grandmother when she was ill. It's exactly as you said, you remember their every action, every word and facial expression. The fact that not only...

    should I continue school if I have an old dui

    Don't mind the previous poster, he's always like that. In Texas at least, I know a cousin of mine had no problem getting licensed with her DUI and she got that during nursing school. Her problem,...

    switch from medical school to nursing?

    Precisely what I thought as well. Typically with these situations, the man was solely interested in a sexual relationship and the woman was interested in financial stability, generally coming from a...

    Lack of Professionalism in PACU

    As uncomfortable as this makes us, it's absolutely true. Studies have shown that the occasional break or "slacking off" really does improve work productivity and quality. Perhaps being more quiet...
