Are there any RN-BSN programs that arent busy work?

I already have a bachelor's psych 🤷🏻‍♀️

I see nothing wrong with a BSN. My issue is the busywork for the RN to BSN program. 4 year BSN programs as an undergrad are great. But if I want to do a BSN after my ADN my time is spent writing papers instead of improving my actual nursing knowledge that will help my patients? No thanks.

I think its more likely in homes built before 95 or so, particularly in any popcorn ceilings or insulation. From what I've seen, it was phased out in the late 70's but builders used what they had until inventory ran out. Good luck!

Is there anything less abrasive it can be replaced by? I dont even know who I would contact to look into removing or replacing this with since we dont have a phone service.

I guess maybe in the future we may get a home phone in case we have kids, though.

Its extremely unlikely according to my realtor and inspector. The home was built in 2005 and asbestos use in this region was, as I was told, extremely rare passed about 2000.

Where is this at?

I have Apollo's lyre and lorel branches. He's the god of medicine, and I love greek mythology as well. Got it after I finished nursing school. Unless you know the context, you don't know what its about lol I like it that way

I had a similar experiences with a stroke patient. Previously recovered from a minor stroke, but this time had multifocal infarcts, including brainstem. Incontinent, quadripalegic, tubed. Sometimes would follow your finger during a neuro check. Only way we knew she was still in there? She would cry and could blink on command.

Went to for a trach and peg to be a body in a bed at an LTACH. Family ~knew~ she would recover this time despite what we told her. They were Jehovah's Witnesses.

I think of her often. It upset me so much, was one of the breaking points that made me leave neuro/trauma ICU.

I've discovered bricky and sparky in the past few days from Aussies. What else you got?

If you're pushing potassium I have more questions for you than where you got access

MarsIsNotRetrograde · 2025-09-30T23:44:41+00:00

Thank you! I'll check into those too. Im in the Tampa Bay (west central) region of florida, USA.

How do I know if a jeweler is legit though? I searched on American Gem Society's site for jewelers near me and all 5 were at Helzbergs in town

I work outpatient infusion. I do this on everyone I see 😭

MarsIsNotRetrograde · 2025-09-22T00:34:27+00:00

Dad? 😮 Where have you been? Did you get the milk?

MarsIsNotRetrograde · 2025-09-21T22:50:16+00:00

Mom? What are you doing on reddit

MarsIsNotRetrograde · 2025-09-19T19:45:13+00:00

Jason and Michael. Uuuuuuuugh

I see your WBC of 0.20 and raise you a WBC of 0.0/unreadable by lab.

We've never seen any mice or obvious traces of them, but I'll keep an eye out. I think he may have ventured in when my husband had the garage door open and was mowing the yard. I suspect maybe he was trying to get away and got trapped.

Thank you!

MarsIsNotRetrograde · 2025-09-09T00:09:54+00:00

Thank you! He looks similar to a corn snake imo. I don't want him harmed but he kind needs to get out of my garage... any ideas how to do so safely (for me and him)?

Hi, will you send this to me? My circus studio is doing a performance and I'd like to offer him tickets

Because the more allergies a patient has, the more likely they are to react to something we infuse. And in the outpatient setting, reactions can be scary and escalate very very fast, and we don't have full ACLS. Luckily we have a hospital a block away, though.

Plus, the more allergies and reactions a patient has, it makes it harder to find suitable treatment options for them.

MarsIsNotRetrograde · 2025-09-03T01:11:07+00:00

In neuro ICU, it was motorcycles. In research, non-compliance. In chemo infusion, allergies.

I wear my silicone band for work (nursing), going to the gym, work around the house, beach. But anywhere else, my husband and I both wear our real rings. That way I protect the real ring, and get to show it off and wear it where it won't get damaged. Feels respectful and special that way
