    Intimidated by being only male

    I've been on the other side too. I'm about to graduate nursing school, but my long-time occupation has been driving a box truck and I'm the lone female in the sausage fest. But I don't mind it, we all...

    Intimidated by being only male

    Interesting reading about the other side, as a female. Two of my few nursing school friends are male, but I never really thought about what may go through a male students head in a class that is...

    Patients Say the Darnedest Things Nurses Week Contest

    I'm a student. I had an older lady that had been constipated for like 5-6 days. We had given her an enema a little while before so we were just waiting for the magic to take place. So I walk into the...
  13. I'm about ready to graduate an ADN program in a month and I've gotta say some of these comments sure are demoralizing. I'm 33, soon to be 34. I've always wanted to be involved in healthcare but some...

    Working while attending school

    I went through my whole program going to school Monday-Thursday (Lecture Mon-Tues, Clinical Wed/Thu) and working Friday-Sunday from like 5-6am to whenever I got out in the afternoon. It's doable. I...

    Fallouts During Nursing School

    I know this sounds kind of callous...but you have to move on, maybe make new friends/study partners. Just keep your eye on the end goal, and that is passing school and getting your license. After this...

    How many people made it to the end of the program?

    Four semester ADN program here, approaching the end of it. We started with like 80 in my program. If you're not counting the LPNs and the students that had to repeat we probably have around 55-60 of...
