I'm a junior in a BSN program. As you all know, nursing school is no piece of cake. My family and loved ones say their supportive and want me to do my best!I study all the time and try my hardest to balance my school work & free time. So why do they look at me like i'm crazy when i tell them, I can't [...]

I will be graduating in August and my mother-in-law has suggested that I apply for VA hospital positions. Does anyone have some experiences (good or bad) that they could share?Also, I was wondering about their loan repayment program. Any info would be much appreciated!

Currently my boyfriend of 5 years started hinting about engagement. While this has always been our plan, I am finishing up my Jr. year of nursing school and don't see time to well, have a life.

And the hospital always sides with [...]

Ok. So what's the worst case scenario here - I took out an education assistance loan from a local hospital while in nursing school and agreed to commit a year of service. Now that it's closer to graduation I have a job offer across the state line making nearly 20k more a year for the same shift. I won't be able to repay the loan [...]

Can a RN loose their license if they are convicted of a misdemeanor assault or a felonious assault?

I am wondering if anyone can help me get some websites that show the percentage of getting into nursing schools. Also any websites that show the lack of schools that have enough teachers to have enough room to let larger number of students into nursing school. Anything showing the high demands of nurses but not enough due to lack of schools. Any help will be [...]
