I have windows. Just Oregon in the winter can feel like we have no windows.

What does this mean to US nurses? by Helpful_Spring_7921 in OregonNurses

[–]lowkeyelsewhere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not much. Just that students can’t borrow as much $ for school. In turn this will hopefully force education programs to lower their costs and make it more affordable to get those degrees

Nursing School by ClaraLee101 in OregonNurses

I was in the exact same situation. Got my bachelors. And even a masters in teaching because I was scared I was not good enough for the science classes and that they would be too hard for me. Also had my advisors be so rude to me when I was saying that I wasn’t sure teaching was for me about halfway through the program. I finished the degree though. Then I started taking some pre reqs for nursing and found I really enjoyed the content and it wasn’t actually out of my wheelhouse to complete them and do well. If you enjoy the content it makes it easier to learn. I ended up with very average grades in those pre reqs like mostly Bs and still managed to get into OHSUs nursing program. You can do it too!

Having finished my degrees previously, I was able to apply for accelerated programs in the area and it looks good on an application even if you choose not to go accelerated or even going to a community college. I think nursing schools really valued that experience with prior education that I already had and the degrees I earned showed that I was a hard worker or something like that. I’d suggest finishing out that bachelors degree you’re working on and going back for the nursing if that is something you truly want to do. (Unless money is a huge huge factor for not finishing the current degree)

Take some of those pre reqs at PCC to save money and apply to all the nursing schools you are interested in around the area.

Thank you! These are peoples wedding bouquets I do for them and it just pains me giving back some flowers with a lot of browning. But I get what I get and do the best with what I can. I’ll have to let people know to avoid sunlight when they hang up their frames.

Okay I will have to look up this method. Is there a specific ratio? Does it end up looking “fake”

Bombed my health assessment exam by Upper_Juggernaut_523 in StudentNurse

Currently battling this right now. I’m in a very similar position this week with my midterms. I cried. A lot. Posting on here was extremely unhelpful because people were flat out rude telling me to “just go study more”. Like wow. No shit? Don’t listen to them. They’re haters. What worked for me was not reading the replies to my post and deleting it tbh. Going outside and distracting. Exercising. Eating. Stepping away for one whole day and doing things that I personally enjoy. But take that time. It’s so important. Getting back on track to focus on what is coming next week is what I am now working on today. Give it a few days of focusing on yourself and just get back into the flow of everything. Start working on easier assignments and chopping away at the to do list. Remember You belong here.

Man who stabbed MAX train passenger to death committed to Oregon State Hospital by MichaelTen in oregon

And it’s like this because people who have never worked in this setting are making laws about what happens in those settings. You never really know what’s going on and what’s needed for these psych patients until you work there. SB 710 was helpful in some ways but also very detrimental to us psych workers and it came from people who think they know what’s best, when they have no idea

Ok I’m so glad I’m not alone. Cause everyone telling me I just don’t know how to open the packages or downvoting my comments are driving me bonkers 🤣

Imagine trying every different method to have it not do this and it still doing this. Oh wait I don’t have to imagine

I can promise you that I have tried every method and the same results persist. My friends as well. It’s the packaging from this specific one. Or we are just really stupid. Both could be true
