    Best way to avoid bedside care?

    Off topic, but I'm really interested in forensic nursing - do you love

    Taking pre requisite courses online

    Check out your community college - most schools offer online courses. I've done the majority of my classes online. My average cost per semester (15 hours) is

    How You Can Lose 50 Pounds In 90 Days

    Yikes. I lost about 90 pounds, but it took me 19 months. I don't think losing that fast is healthy - and you won't only lose fat, you're risking muscle, too. You have good tips - especially the...

    Should I continue

    I'd do two things: Talk to your doctor about your concerns and the management of your condition going into the future. And then I'd shadow a nurse for a day or two, so you can get a good idea of how...

    Areas of nursing you would NOT like?

    I'm still pre-nursing, so I'm trying to keep an open mind, but I have certain areas that interest me more than others. I'm leaning heavily towards the ED. I've worked as an aide on med/surg, day...

    Only taking 2 classes in first semester. Bad idea?

    I've been taking classes on and off since '09. It doesn't matter how long it takes you, as long as you get

    Nursing school

    If the credits don't transfer, that would be a deal breaker for me. For the ADN route, you'll have to take basic classes like Algebra, History, Chemistry, English, etc - after those are done, you can...

    Nursing school

    I know nothing about Concord. Is it a for profit school? Where in Texas are you? I'm in San Antonio. I'm doing my pre-requisites at the community college (which also has an ADN program), and I have my...

    Stanford Rape

    I'm going to take just one comment of yours to try to show you why people are reading your posts the way they are. Does that clear things up? Edit: This appears on page

    Stanford Rape

    I feel like there is a real disconnect here and I don't understand why. Should people, in general, take realistic precautions to protect themselves? Of course they should. If something goes on to...

    starting nursing school at 48

    I think if you want to be an RN - do that. No sense in doing additional school if it's not needed. I'm older (36) and entering my sophomore year of school. I feel as though I've the best of both...

    Take Microbiology online or on campus?

    I do much better in online classes than in person classes. I like to learn at my own pace. I have to take lab with micro, but were I given the choice, I'd do it

    Stanford Rape

    This is the one thing in this entire thread that has offended me, and made me feel ashamed. Bravo. Wearing a skirt, or having a few drinks is nothing like playing in traffic. It's more like having a...

    Stanford Rape

    The point that you continually seem to miss is this: Yes, everyone should take reasonable precautions against harmful things. Not dressing certain ways and drinking at parties should not be considered...

    Facebook and employers/school

    It's like Instagram for medical professionals. You have to prove that you're a student/doctor/nurse/tech/etc, before you're allowed to comment or follow cases (I did so via my school's email address)....

    Facebook and employers/school

    Everything you've ever put online is out there, forever. Deleting it won't make any difference at this point. This is why I don't use my legal name on the internet, at all. My legal last name is not...

    A&P

    I'm also taking A&P I this fall! I keep hearing how much information is going to be thrown at us, so I've started to prep myself by getting an A&P coloring book. I'm hoping it'll help...

    Stanford Rape

    Painting yourself as a victim who is simply being crucified because you believe differently than the majority of people here is a bit over the top. You've said a lot of things that were cruel, unkind...

    Nursing student asks nurses the question..

    Obligatory "I'm not a nurse (yet)". Maybe you need a new frame of reference for the nurses you're watching. Perhaps viewing their participation in your education as a favor to you, rather than...
