  1. Canadian Looking to Get CALI license

    Yes that is exactly what I am talking
  2. Hi, I have read through a few thread and have learned just how strict the California Board of Nursing is I will be completing my BSN in Canada very soon. I previously lived in Southern California...
  3. Canadian Looking to Get CALI license

    Sorry I am a little confused by that... One can definitely obtain their license in Canada (as per their provincial college aka board) then apply for licensure by endorsement in their desired US state....
  4. California Board Approval Question

    does anyone know approx. how many hours they are looking for? And is it really mostly based off that fill in the blank form the school fills
  5. How many of you nurses do NOT have health insurance

    I know this is old but it makes me so sad! Literally every other country in the world (except for like, New Guinea) has health insurance. Only in the USA is it dependent on your employment. So happy I...
  6. How much did you/would you pay for BSN?

    Do not pay $80,000 for your degree. Go online and figure out how much you'll end up actually paying for your degree w/ interest given however may months/years it takes you to pay it back. You will...
  7. Weekend Work

    Hi y'all! Quick question, I feel like a lot of people enter the OR to work "business hours" (or something close to that) shifts. I actually went into nursing to avoid the whole 9-5pm thing (of...
  8. Weekend Work

    Gotcha.
  9. Weekend Work

    Thanks Heylove (cute name!), That sounds amazing!! Do you work at a large
  10. Weekend Work

    In this case I was specifically asking about weekend work in the OR due to the hours being somewhat different than traditional 3/12s floor
  11. Weekend Work

    So weekend work is generally desired by experienced nurses? I do find that kind of surprising. Also, if there is limited staff on hand, wouldn't there be a need to hire new staff that want to work...
  12. vip floor in a hospital

    I am so confused by this concept! What do you do if the room is empty????? Can a regular pt NOT stay in the room? Where I work we have patients flowing into the hallway. It makes me sick that there...
  13. Nurse dating former patient?

    Ok I didn't read all the pages of responses, but yes, that sounds like stalking. Also, it is a violation of the therapeutic relationship and you're likely to be reprimanded by your licensing
  14. NICU Scrubs

    That was unnecessary
  15. NICU Scrubs

    What do you wear in the NICU? I assumed scrubs but after watching a few youtube videos of nurses at Sunnybrook & Sick Kids in Toronto, it looked like the RNs were dressed in street clothes. If you...
  16. How do you handle leechers aka LAZY STUDENTS in your class?

    I agree with the previous poster that you should turn in the ones asking for you to write their papers. They will find someone willing and that's an academic infraction. Moreover, you would probably...
  17. NICU Scrubs

    Thanks for the insight. Are you located in Canada? The individuals in the videos were definitely
  18. Health dilemma + school clinicals = what to do??

    I agree with the above. Consider freezing your eggs, if possible. Actually since you're married, might as well freeze
  19. What is the cost of operating your vehicle (insurance, fuel, maintenance, etc)? Can you sell your vehicle? It might not be much more expensive to live on campus if you can walk to class and...
  20. How do you stay sexy in nursing school

    Oh this is such an interesting thread! Lots of greats ideas here. I would add that you can always blow out your hair nicely, smooth it out, and pull it back. Also, EYEBROWS! Brows really frame the...
  21. New Grad Resume Help

    Yes your resume is part of the problem! Proof read!! AVOCATION means "hobby". I think you meant to write "advocacy". Errors like this make applicants sound ignorant, especially when it's right at the...
  22. Resume and Cover Letter Help... Please

    I would take the latest pet grooming off. Also have your nursing experience and education and certifications higher
  23. Assist during pelvic exam

    I just have to add that this behaviour is not OK! Also, from a pt perspective, if this were me and I observed a male doctor demeaning the nurse (I am assuming you are female because you are...
  24. ATI PLAN Let me save you the time and $

    I was curious about this too. Did you buy the DVDs? I just ordered a set from Amazon but they haven't arrived
  25. Too much fluff in nursing programs?

    whereabouts are you
