I'm a student nurse, and a male. I was just wondering if any experienced male nurses knew what the best magazines to order would be, or any great websites to find scrubs and equipment? Thanks for your answers. I am very excited to actually be able to practice as a nurse and I haven't had much luck finding men's scrubs/clogs... Help!

Ok, so i am a senior in highschool right now, and i want to be an R.N, but i don't quite understand.. i want to attend Ivy Tech (a community college ).. and they offer a Associate of Science, ..
but i heard some poeple talking that an Associate's doesn't really ammount to anything, i need to get my Bachelors, or my masters... if i go and get the Associate of Science, will i be able to find a good paying job?.. or will i have to continue my schooling further...?

and does anyone know what's the difference between associates, bachelors and masters...?

Thanks!

Here's my short story: I've been going to college for about 9 years now. Yes 9 years. I've had to work 40+ hours to maintain my family and pay for college. I had to take a few semesters off during my college career to take on two jobs (80+ hours) in order to pay off school, and bills. Well I'm finally graduating this fall with a 2.82 G.P.A.(bachelors in Finance) and would like to attend graduate or law school sometime in the future. I would like to attend a top university(University of Chicago, Wharton, Harvard Business School) but my concern is that the low gpa wont help my cause. Hypothetically if I did really well on my Gmat, would that help any? Thanks

I'm so frustrated right now. I am planning to start travel nursing again, hopefully next month. One (or actually 2) big things are in my way. I need 2 recommendation letters from an employer I left about 5 mos ago. I brought the forms down there week before last and left them for the people who need to do them, with instructions to fax them ASAP. Well, my travel nursing company still hasn't received them. I've called a couple of times and haven't gotten anywhere. It's the hospital's policy to just give the length of time you were employed, and how much you were paid. It's a JACHO (healthcare accreditation company) requirement for travel nursing companies to get letters of recommendation that address your clinical skills. I was hoping my bosses would do this without a problem, but I'm not getting anywhere. I don't know what to do at this point!

I quit my job of 7 years after being suspended on what a co-worker said about my work performance. The co-worker, a RN license is to delegate basic tasks to CNA's which I am. However, we were short this day, the RN was told to do her own work by our charge RN since we were short CNA's.The RN delegated to me so that she could eat breakfast and sit. Swamped, I tried but was unable to meet the demands of two missing co-workers & pt volume. Two other RN's I worked with knew of this co-workers laziness and the stress she was putting upon me, but said nothing in my defense after they agreed the situation was unfair. I tried to go above my managers head and talk w/ adm, but was beat to the punch by my manager.I always went above and beyond when it came to working there, and I loved my job! The RN has been fired b/c of her bad work performance, and the manger demoted to a lower postion out of that dept. I want my job back but quit the orgnztion, do I stand a chance of gettiing job back?

1. I have been interviewing quite a bit and I find myself having trouble answering these questions:
Name three of your weaknesses?
2. You have a degree in healthcare and an extensive work experience in health. Why are you looking for work at our company which isn't health related?
3. What are your long term goals?

I know my weaknesses but when it comes to telling someone my weaknesses, I can't think of any.
The positions I apply to I have experience in. I have over six years of experience as an Administrative Assistant in a healthcare organization. I apply to A.A. positions in other companies not related in healthcare. The job descriptions for all jobs I apply to read similiar to my previous job.
When answering what my long term goal is I don't want to look like I don't have the company's interest in mind. For example, in an interview I've said my long term goal is acquiring the needed skills and experience to become an Office Manager.

I want to be a Rad-Tech with the ultimate goal of doing MRI's and Sonographing as well. You know as a tech. Would it be best to start out as a Rad-Tech and get my foot in the door at a hospital? Or should I try to learn Sonography or MRI as well? I'm only asking because there are not alot of Sonography or MRI programs near me. There are diploma or certificate programs? Would that be acceptable to a hospital/clinic? I'm totally new to the Health Care industry. I was a trucker, if that gives you an idea ;0)
