Wow, I only have 2 more weeks of LNA clinicals!

when I was a nursing student some of the female nurses were treated quite horribly by their patients, which led them to be given to me as patients.  Since I'm a man, all the old fogies kept calling me "doctor". . . I guess "doctors" get respect for some reason while the nurses clean up the crap (literally)

Yeah, we had a male student in our class and I could see that happening here and there.  So how are we allowed to defend ourselves if so many things we say are against the law now? 

I guess I was lucky because I only had a handful of difficult, combative residents the other residents were awesome and like I said the verbal stuff I can handle it's just the physical stuff I can't.   One LNA had her arm in a sling because a resident hurt her so bad, that's scary and my mom knew this nurse that lost her baby because a patient beat her up so bad.

Hey Rainey!  Congrats on getting your LNA!  When the hell did you have time to do that with homeschooling, kids, grandkids, etc.???

Anton:  Are you a RN? 

My daughter is graduating h.s. this year and wants to go into nursing.  She got accepted at a school, though, that doesn't have a nursing program.  Unfortunately she's now going to have to go 4 years and get her BS in a science, then go an additional year (?) for her RN.  It seems like it would just be simpler if she went to Concord Tech.

Thanks Jan!     I don't sleep that much anymore!     That's too bad, it does seem like it would be better for her to go to Concord Tech.

no, I'm not in nursing anymore.

Congrats Rainey!!

Thanks!
