   CuriousMe replied to Joyfull77's topic in Oregon Nursing

   No one but you can say if any school is good for you. ITT Tech is very expensive (it's associate degree costs more than my bachelors degree did), and it's credits are not nearly as readily accepted...

   CuriousMe replied to DesertRN2's topic in Disaster Preparation

   I don't know what CBS said, but last I checked they are not a peer reviewed scholarly source (not sure if the CDC was an approved source for scholarly research in your BSN program or not...). What was...

6. Nurse: 'I was fired for refusing flu shot'

   CuriousMe replied to DesertRN2's topic in Disaster Preparation

   CuriousMe replied to L3Janit0r37's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

   That may be in your facility. My nursing school dress code required me to wear a lab coat, that went down to my knees, when I picked up my patient information for the next morning. Each place is...

8. Crap...now what?

   CuriousMe replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   The bigger concern I'd have, if I were you, is why I was sitting at a 79 average? Am I not understanding the material? Am I trying to cram for exams? Do I need to brush up on my test taking skills?...

9. Crap...now what?

   CuriousMe replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   True, but not passing the NCLEX means you won't be a nurse (at least until you pass it) Theoretically there is a practical exam.......it's called clinicals. Clinical instructors aren't supposed to...

10. Any news from RCC fall 2011?

    CuriousMe replied to E2NURSE's topic in California Nursing

    CuriousMe replied to RscodADN10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've looked at a number of those sites....all the information was wrong (the closest one of the sites got was where I lived 20+ years ago the rest didn't even have that). As long as you take...

13. Will you delete your Facebook account of you get into nursing school?

    CuriousMe replied to RscodADN10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Censoring is really just about using common sense. There's things you'd say to your friends in confidence, sitting in your kitchen that you may not say at a wedding reception filled with your friends...

14. any nurses or nursing students who's into fitness?

    CuriousMe replied to liftingbob1985's topic in General Students
