    Workitinurfava replied to Hink12's topic in General Nursing

  9. Am I cut out for nursing

    Workitinurfava replied to larson1013's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It helps seeing it done and getting comfortable with it. The more you see and do, the more you get comfortable. You did the most important thing, you called 911. You still did something. You didn't go...

    Workitinurfava replied to EDNURSE20's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Workitinurfava replied to prettykonvinced08's topic in Online Distance Learning

  12. Unsure on how to proceed into becoming a nurse

    Workitinurfava replied to Lex0117's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You are still very young despite you feeling that you lost time. You still have time to get your goal going. You may need to start out with working part-time or nursing school part-time. If it is...

  13. Older career changer

    Workitinurfava replied to rfsmom's topic in General Students

  14. Failing Anatomy!

    Workitinurfava replied to linzipinzi's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your study methods need to be consistent. We all learn in different ways and the key is learning how you learn best. What works for one person may not work for you. If you need to read, write, and...

  15. Does anyone here like nursing?

    Workitinurfava replied to bluestar776's topic in General Nursing

  16. Loosing hope

    Workitinurfava replied to Mtac32's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Strange how the op hasn't posted but you are posting and saying shut down the thread,

  17. Loosing hope

    Workitinurfava replied to Mtac32's topic in First Year After Licensure

    You aren't calling anyone out. I stand by my post but you going back and forward with me won't help the op. You are changing the direction of the post. If people aren't willing to work hard for what...

  18. Loosing hope

    Workitinurfava replied to Mtac32's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Don't assume anything. You came on here to attack the people offering their opinions to the op and you are calling me rude. Why not just respond to the op, isn't that the point of this

  19. Does anyone here like nursing?

    Workitinurfava replied to bluestar776's topic in General Nursing

    I like nursing but not the conditions under which some nurses are asked to work. I will always like helping and healing people. I would never go to work and be nasty to a patient. If I need to go the...

  20. Loosing hope

    Workitinurfava replied to Mtac32's topic in First Year After Licensure

    No, you should give up and quit. It is the easiest option and will spare you the aggravation of having to try so hard at getting a new job. Honestly you seem to have a pattern of starting things, and...

  21. Loosing hope

    Workitinurfava replied to Mtac32's topic in First Year After Licensure

    You have to be patient and persistent. Why do you have a respiratory therapy degree but no experience? Anyhoo, just keep sending out your resume and apply to nursing

  22. How do you deal with nurse cliques/"gangs" bullying?

    Workitinurfava replied to Bosmer's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I doubt it is the clique you think it is. You would more than likely have to be like them in order to fit in so just know that. Start looking around for something else, you will like a job more if you...

  23. Can I be a registered nurse if I have bipolar disorder?

    Workitinurfava replied to MeAndArmini's topic in Nurse Disabilities

    Do you have any past history of having to stop working due to the condition (on a long-term basis for whatever reason)? I ask this because I work in mental health and many of the patients have to stop...

  24. Cdiff odor?

    Workitinurfava replied to rubensa's topic in General Nursing

    It is foul. I got it due to taking the antibiotic Clindamycin. I was later prescribed Flagyl to get rid of the Cdiff. I haven't had it since it cleared up. It smells like a garbage can. It didn't get...
