  1. Nursing students and their bad behaviors >:(

    milesims replied to PrettyNerd's topic in General Students

    Excuse me, but showing up to class and showing up to clinical are two completely different things. You're getting paid to show up on the floor, and tardiness is not acceptable due to obvious reasons....

  2. Breaking confidentiality?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Yes, I'm just wondering how much you can disclose.. For example. I've seen someone on here explain how they've dealt with a nurse and how they've dealt with a difficult patient. They didn't state the...

  3. What offends you (nursing related)?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    I think they would just

  4. Nursing students and their bad behaviors >:(

    milesims replied to PrettyNerd's topic in General Students

    I agree with absolutely everything :) ...except for #1. I feel that we don't have the right to judge nursing students with children that are late to class... They are probably getting their kids to...

  5. What offends you (nursing related)?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    Understood. I'm far from those "selfie" girls, and I only say those things to make people drop a stupid topic that isn't relevant to the thread. However, people twice my age get aggravated at such...

  6. What offends you (nursing related)?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    Alright, many points to argue; - It's a grant, not a loan. People who receive it can remain anonymous. - There are tens of thousands of nursing students who are 20 years old and the majority are...

  7. Are hair accessories unprofessional?

    milesims replied to silhouettedreams's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    As long as they stay in your hair and it's not against the dress code, it's not harming anybody. Especially if your patients like it and it matches your personality. :) I don't think it's...

  8. Exhausted

    milesims replied to rnccf2007's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that it is completely unfair to nurses, many other health care professionals who suffer through the same scenarios, and patients. These situations would be avoided if hospitals were not so...

  9. How important is it to you to be a nurse?

    milesims replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    I have to say, not really. I have a big interest in nursing and it changed my life, but it isn't who I

  10. Am I just being too sensitive?

    milesims replied to PCABham's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    That is extremely disrespectful and should not be tolerated. However, I think that confronting her "harshly" at first or telling administration would just escalate the situation and not prove your...

  11. Are you jealous of other nurses jobs/abilities?

    milesims replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    Their successes and failures should not affect who you think you are. I used to be like this, so I completely understand. However, when I found what I really wanted in life and focused on that, I did...

  12. Why can't we all just get along?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Students

    That's a really good perspective and I never thought of it that way. You're basically saying that this confidence leads to a sense of righteousness and superiority, and consequently a lot of...

  13. What offends you (nursing related)?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    I think that believing in your product, a good business plan, happy employees and happy clients are far more important to a business than my "reputation" on an internet forum based in the US. Don't...

  14. What offends you (nursing related)?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for the advice. However, I'm sure being notorious on an internet forum won't hurt me too

  15. What offends you (nursing related)?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    No beef at all. I'm a level 5

    That's alright with

  17. What offends you (nursing related)?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Nursing

    If you read my comment, you'll see that I mentioned that I tooted my horn a bit on this thread. Somebody accused me of having nothing to do since I post things and comment once every day or second...

  18. Why can't we all just get along?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Students

    Completely agree. You said what I was thinking very eloquently

  19. Why can't we all just get along?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Students

    You are absolutely correct on the minimum grade. However, they also look at the years of experience that you have. Some grad programs take that as more of an influential factor for acceptance, and...

  20. Why can't we all just get along?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Students

    Thank you for your reply, I really appreciate the positive comments! I can completely see why you would think that. I probably gave off a wrong impression, but I really felt a need to defend myself....

  21. Opinions on nursing students?

    milesims posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Nurses and professors, tell me your experiences with nursing students. Include your general impression of

  22. Why can't we all just get along?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in General Students

    Yes, I'm 20. I'm still in undergrad. I've done a lot of research on grad schools in first year and decided this year to pursue an MBA instead. Even the MBAs here only require you to have a minimum of...

  23. Opinions on nursing students?

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That's what I like to hear!

  24. Struggling with an unmotivated clinical group

    milesims replied to nursemeanie's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    I am aware it is going into paying the professors to supervise us, and all of those other factors. However, I feel we are not supervised enough. The professor has a lot on their hands, and can only...

  25. Starting a home care agency? Still a nursing student.

    milesims replied to milesims's topic in Canada

    Thank you so much! :) I will update my progress sometime in July when I'm a month into accepting
