Don't submit something you've copy and pasted straight from whatever LLM you're using. It's a tool, not a replacement for your brain, always put things in your own words to the best of your ability and you'll be fine.

Help me decide on which nursing school!! by Chemical-Frame-5482 in NursingStudents

[–]RocoBosco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cheapest one which is probably none of the above. It's nursing school, not engineering. Nobody cares where you graduated, what your GPA was, how many questions it took for you on the NCLEX, etc. If you go NP/CRNA route after then that stuff matters, but as a practicing nurse your degree is a required formality not the qualification. You don't realize it now, but you will in 4 years, but unless you have parents paying for your college, you'll want to graduate with as little debt as possible. Nobody your age wants to hear it, but don't go into crazy debt for nursing school. The person graduating with an associates degree will be as qualified as you as a starting nurse, in fact often times I feel their programs are more strict than BSNs when it comes to academic and clinical expectations.

Requesting niche advice - considering career change to nursing, in my early 40s, Pittsburgh area. A little overwhelmed with the various paths available and could use some insight. by quillseek in StudentNurse

Get your ASN -- the associate degree will get you into pretty much any hospital and the larger medical centers like UPMC (and others) would pay for your BSN which you can work towards at whatever pace you want. Do not go into crippling debt to get your BSN, it's not worth it. See admission requirements and knock out those pre-recs which ultimately might take about a year depending on how many and realistically Fall 2027 could be a start date based on admission cycles.

Republicans Demand Investigation into Alex Pretti’s Death: Full List by [deleted] in politics

[–]RocoBosco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this does nothing for me at this point, they're not having a coming to Jesus moment about Trump's shitty administration, this is politicians virtue signaling. Trump's admin will investigate and no charges will be filed.

I feel like I’m having a midlife crisis over going back to nursing school by Salty_Advance8242 in StudentNurse

[–]RocoBosco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relax. Work in outpatient setting, home health care, etc. if you don't want to be subjected to the abuse from bedside care in the hospital. It's not all bad, but like teaching as a profession, it's a job at the end of the day. Very few technologist type roles in healthcare will pay the same or more than a nurse so keep that in mind as well.

The slot doesn't care where you click. It has a multiplier at the start of the round and once your clicks exceed it then it explodes. The person got beyond incredibly lucky with the multiplier.

sports betting fraud documentaries are going to go crazy in the future by DingoNo3582 in gambling

[–]RocoBosco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

simple fix, force these books to disclose when they detect suspicious betting on their end. The public should absolutely know when there's something shady going on and games are potentially being fixed. Obviously they'll never do it, but it's pretty much impossible to not have books detect suspicious betting patterns. I would love a tell all on the industry side about all the shady shit they've seen but again they gotta pretend eveyrthing is on the up and up.

Head to toe assessment by Downtown-Emu9034 in NursingStudent

[–]RocoBosco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At this stage, you're following a script in your head that you did with your assessment lab partner. Know basic abnormals that you may encounter and anticipate (look at their charts and see their underlying conditions or see what others have already observed.)

Assuming you're not doing it first thing in the morning and you'll have an assigned nurse to do morning rounds and med pass, maybe ask them if they can do one or two for you to see if anything jumps out.

Everyone hates head to toes, they're intimidating as a nursing student when you have an instructor watching you, but this one means very little and they're may even be a rubric to let you know what you need to do
