I really want to know about this. Is this SIN for the couple (who done it) , friends who supports them, family who supports them, doctors who gave them medicine, nurses who give them medicine, drug store associates who gave them medicine, the girl who is pregnant, the boy who got her pregnant. Who is the real sinner in this scenario?
There’s this guy I’ve been talking to recently and we both think we’re pretty locked in. He’s not only attracted to me but he says how I have a beautiful soul a lot so he likes the deeper aspects of me as well so far. He also says that I’m different from the other women that he would interact with too which is why he’s so interested in me. We both want to commit to eachother and stuff but I have an issue with that.
I’m a nursing student and once classes start, I’m going to be hella busy. I don’t think I would have time for him unless if it’s during breaks or something but idk how long the breaks will be anyway. I also tried looking at spots around campus where we could hangout during those breaks because I would want it to be just us. I would hangout with him outside of nursing school or on the weekends but I can’t because I have strict parents and can’t really get through to them so I would have to wait until I have more freedom. I also can’t move out either and wouldn’t want to so that’s also not an option for me.
As of right now, I’ve been calling him and texting him throughout the day which has been pretty good. We both would want to meet up eventually. He said that he’s okay with everything but I care about him and us plus I would want things to actually last long which is why I’m asking for advice. What’s the best way to manage this situation?
Hello,
I begin nursing school in just a week.
I get a "free" Ipad on my first day.
I always saw people using them for note taking and studying in my pre-reqs.
For those with an Ipad that they use for studying, I would appreciate some cool tips and tricks on how to make the most of the technology
I’ve heard some people say to become a LPN then work somewhere that will pay for your education to become a RN.
Is it better to take that route or go straight into a RN program? Which one would save you the most time or money? Would love to hear your recommendations or experiences! I’m based in north Dallas.
I have a bachelor’s degree, so I have most of my prereqs done, but will probably have to take a few more science classes.
Thanks!
Has anyone attended the 12-month ABSN program at the University of St. Thomas in Houston?
It’s about $66,000. Would you recommend it? Was it worth the cost?
I’d love to hear your honest experience. Thank you!
I am considering becoming an Enrolled Nurse in Victoria.
I have a few questions, however I will give some context first;
I have no degrees / 1 TAFE cert / did not finish year 12 / not eligible for free TAFE / spent ALOT of time in hospitals, ER's and GP offices / chronically ill with POTS and arthritic issues etc.
My current chosen pathway is doing the 2 year Diploma, then using the credit earned from the Diploma to enter a Bachelors with one year removed. Then finish as an Enrolled Nurse and go into the ER sector. Over time i'd also like to do a paramedics course to open up my career options.
Do not comment on my illnesses unless you are a Nurse that can relate or give me advice on the right path as some one who is not as able, thankyou.
Questions: (there's a lot sorry!)
Relating to my plan, what University is the best for this?
Are there quicker alternatives?
What is your experience as an ER Nurse?
Are there short courses for leadership / time management that I should consider doing that might add to my work ethic?
How fit should I be before I apply?
If you are a Nurse with visible tattoos what are your experiences?
Do you have any general advice or experiences to share about Nursing school?
What are your personal Pros and Cons?
If you have a chronic illness what are your experiences?
IF you have ADHD how did you workout a study plan?
What is the hardest vs easiest part of your job?
Is the stress worth it for the outcome of helping people?
How did you pass your board exam?
Do hospitals help pay for further education?
Was it hard to find your first job after school?
What is the most difficult area of learning whilst at Uni?
What should I learn before applying for Uni?
In Melb where you do believe the best placement hospital is?
Anything else I should learn or know from experienced and upcoming Nurses please lmk!
I’m considering nursing school with the eventual goal of becoming a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I’m plus size, have POTS, and also deal with some mental health issues, so I’m nervous about the physical demands of nursing school and clinicals.
I’m hoping to spend time beforehand getting into better shape, building my stamina and strength, getting my POTS as controlled as possible, and looking into reasonable accommodations if needed.
Has anyone here gone through nursing school while plus size, having POTS/chronic illness, or dealing with mental health issues? Did your body adjust as you got stronger and more conditioned? Is there anything you wish you had done beforehand? I’d especially love to hear from anyone who went into psych nursing.
I am an LPN looking to upgrade to get my RN license, as that has always been the goal. I am working to have the required 1800 hours completed and I have a 91% average under my belt from graduating the PN program. I was looking at the program at St. FX and interested in the distance learning, so I can continue to work and make a living while studying.
If anyone has completed this program - specifically with the online distance learning - I would love to hear from you about your experience.
How long did it take in total to complete?
How often did you have to attend in person labs/classes?
Is there any benefit to taking any science courses online through St FX while I wait to apply? Would the credits possibly be transferable and therefore shorten the length of the program, or does everyone graduate together?
Is there anything else that may benefit me to know prior to applying in regard to the school, the program, the courses, etc ?
Thank you!
Second semester of nursing school officially kicks off Monday August 24th. This week the lab is open to get some practice and refresh on clinical skills etc but I am feeling SO UNMOTIVATED. I spend so much time dreading and thinking about starting to study and do absolutely nothing about it 😩 I don’t have any classmates I’d consider friends yet so maybe developing those friendships this semester will help this but I feel so useless and lazy and unable to lock in. I literally cleaned the entire house today instead of going over dosage problems, head to toe, literally anything school related. Summer break was 3 months long maybe I let myself have too much fun. I cannot continue this way I have pharm this semester!!!
Someone please tell me they’ve felt this way!!! How did you snap out of it? Any advice is appreciated I’m down bad :(
Going into semester 3 of practical nursing program @ Davis campus. Any semester 4 students or graduated students have any tips or recommendations??
First week of nursing school and I feel like I’m not good enough. I got into my community college ADN program it’s highly competitive, I got a 4.0 on all my prerequisites and so far have been a great student. I’m 40, married and have 3 kids and I have a great support system. I have managed school and home life just fine, but this first week of nursing school has turned my life upside down and I feel like I don’t know how to study for so much material. I should not be doubting my self but I feel like I’m not half as smart as everyone else. I write notes the old school way and I am tech savvy but I hate to use my devices for taking notes or AI to generate study guides for me. I am lost and need to find a method that works for me! I
i want to go into nursing, but my gpa is really low and i won’t get in 100%. so im thinking of doing rt. it interests me and its something i dont mind doing. but i heard the growth isnt well and they usually top off at $45(maybe true maybe isnt but still they dont make as much as nursing and dont have many options for career growth). i was thinking of working as an rt for a while and gaining experience, and then apply to nursing school. what are your opinions? anything helps! i’m still trying to get my gpa up right now by retaking classes btw.
How do you all get over the nervousness or the block with doing skills checkoffs?
I have been a CNA for YEARS. Our first skill to check off is making a bed 🤦🏻♀️ and im struggling because we have to remember all of these steps technically by the paper word for word. Im older, perimenopause, and ive been doing this for years in a "real world" scenario mostly in crappy LTC facilities.
I can go in and make a bed just fine irl. I dont struggle once I get to the ACTUAL making of the bed part. I struggle with remembering to verbalize EVERY LITTLE THING such as saying exactly what my assessment will me, my plan, then the steps of lowering the raising the bed, lowering the rails, locking the bed (they have us doing this before making the bed.)
I know it i just get nervous when its NOT a real scenario. I did this when I worked in the hospital too. When I checked off in my +4s I was so nervous, but when I actually did the skills on actual people I did great and did them correctly, because its a person and my brain just says "hey this is serious." Im not reciting a piece of paper to be graded I'm actually doing it.
Heyy guys, I’m currently using kilonotes but I feel like my options are limited because they’re updating more materials and I have to pay more.
I’m wondering what you guys use and how much you have to pay and what do you think is effective for nursing schools?
Thank you
What is the deal with dosage calc in nursing school?
People seem to have so much anxiety about it when it's probably the easiest thing we are tested on.
Are there even nurses calculating their rates? The doc rx the dose, the pharmacist calculates the rate. Is this different at other hospitals?
hey, im going off here in September but had to choose it through clearing - so how is it? what are the placements like? is it really remote or can i use public transport? i dont have a driving license
whats the teaching like???
Hello!
I am a LMSW considering changing careers. I have a cumm GPA of 2.70 for my undergrad degree in biology. Do I have a chance of getting accepted into a nursing program?
Hello Everyone!
I am currently starting general pre-reqs in the fall for both ABSN and MEPN programs. I am in the Bay Area, and am just wondering which one might be more worth it. Obviously they’re both expensive there’s no negotiating that, but I am wondering which would be best to pursue. I have a bachelors in sociology, working as an admin now and realized this isn’t what I want anymore. My fiancé currently works at a hospital and tbh, he really inspired me to pursue healthcare. Just wondering if anyone has gone through something like this. Debating both options and what did you go with or what do you recommended ? ☻ Thanks and sorry for ranting lol
