If you want some C algebra dimwit to be setting up your drip line and monitoring your vital signs you are crazy
Diversity is our strength

I have great respect for the healthcare community but lets not act like you need to be a straight A student in a classroom to be a good nurse. Or to go even further, to be successful in many careers in life.
It’s frightening. But what’s worse, no care at all or bad care? Because the hospitals are short staffed and nurse to patient ratios right now are far from ideal. Tough call. Would be nice if kids coming out of HS aren’t falling prey to bogus degree offerings like Gender and Female Studies and instead were filtered into real professions like nursing.
Mercy.c'mon, FK, you're a sensible poster. This is total bull crap. A nursing course? Which school of nursing at UPMC? From the website, here are the entrance requirements to be an RN
RN Nursing Program Admission Requirements
Learn more about UPMC Schools of Nursing's RN Nursing programs and its admission requirements.www.upmc.com
And its internal.
It's getting easier than ever to be a good nurse but that isn't the point. C in algebra is the lowest common denominator on those requirements, which are artificially low to allow increased diversity. The quota can be filled with B students. Funny how the party pushing optimal international trade levels doesn't want the same standards in education.
it was always very rigorous at Mercy when Sr. Carolyn was dean. This was years ago, I really would have a hard time believing now that Mercy is part of UPMC that they have relaxed the standards and would let people coast through.
I’m just telling you what I was told. There’s no ulterior reason for this to be conveyed to me. I do a fair amount of business at Mercy and know dozens of staff. And plus my sister is a trauma nurse there for 30 years.
Mercy is an interesting place....not always in a good way.
oh man, God bless her. Mercy gets all walks of life. I know many nurses and well Mercy ER is quite the scene... the location and their addiction services/treatment probably play a big part in that as well..
they dont even have the doors open on weekends, i know that. you either have to go thru the ER rentrance or take the garage entrance thru the elevated walkway. front entrance is locked..
If you have a head injury, it’s the first and only place I’d go in Pittsburgh. Even before Presby.
yes, slick thinks it's funny when you & your ilk rely on twitter as gospel fact. As they say, here is the rest of the story (I can google too).
"industry representatives say the passenger cap at Dublin Airport is one of the reasons for the recent downward trend. A winter seat limit of 14.4 million, which expires tomorrow, was put in place by the Irish Aviation Authority last October in a bid to ensure the airport does not exceed the annual permissible total of 32 million passengers."
You are truly starting to bore me doc, and I'm sure others as well. Soon, you can share all your twitter news in the echo chamber with those who think alike.
Tourism continues recent decline, with February numbers down again
Tourism figures have continued to decline, with a 30pc drop in the number of foreign visitors coming to Ireland in February, according to the latest figures from the Central Statistics Office.

So you think videos of people being raped and beaten up by foreigners are bullshit because they are reported on twiteter. Of if someone links a new article on twitter that makes the information in the news article invalid. So essentially you're refuting that the UK, Ireland, Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, France and just about every European country doesnt have a violent crime issue associated with immigrants from the middle east and africa? Reports of no go zones in these countries are bullshit ? Thats as silly as people claiming anything reported on Fox news is bullshit or any information on any other issue is bullshit because the main stream news owned by the MIc and BIg Pharma didnt report it.yes, slick thinks it's funny when you & your ilk rely on twitter as gospel fact.

Oh and Mr. Pius referring to others as people of your ilk......... The names and characterizations the left throws out dont even bother me nor anyone who truly understands what is going on in the word anymore. i Wear them as a badge of honor.
And i could give a crap if you're bored. You sure do seem to respond to every post thats made? More hypocrisy.?
Hardly. You post too much garbage to respond to all of them.
Thought I was boring you? I can understand how the facts that I post would create levels of cognitive dissonance that would be unbearable for you.
keep waking up looking for something to be angry about each morning doc. It's going to start affecting your health if it hasn't already.
I thought you were decent poster all these years but this locker room I guess brought out your true self. Sad, I enjoyed interacting with you on the football side of things but now could give a flying F what you think there as well.
If you haven't guessed, you will soon be on ignore.
Typical lib. Runs away when the cognitive dissonance is too much to beat
given your value system I could care less what you think of me. In fact I’d be concerned if you agreed with me
Eat more eggs and hit the gym j it appears your testosterone levels are low.
apparently you are the one who needs the gym from previous posts here
Typical wing nut. Throws out insults from the safety of his anonymous keyboard. Doesn't answer questions but tries to deflect. Would never have the testicular fortitude to say the things you do in person. Enjoy basement dwelling with your jelly donuts since I know you never make it to a Pitt game in person.

Yep. When my mom was hit by a car and suffered a head injury she first went to AGH, but they transferred her to Mercy.
Trauma in general is very good at Mercy. But their neuro trauma is tops in the city.
Nurses are still spread thin though.
Please don’t tell me that “not always in a good way” applies to the cardiovascular unit. That’s where my cardiologist's office is.
no clinically they were & are excellent. there were some administrative things that happened before UPMC came around that were interesting.
Violent Crime Soars in Germany, Number of 'Non German' Suspects Up
Crimes like murder, manslaughter, and rape increased in Germany last year, with the number of 'non-German' suspects increasing as well.

Looks like they need the migrant workers in South Africa more than they do here. As a non-racist humanitarian, I support all migrants being rerouted to South Africa in order to clean up their trash problems.
Maybe they can rebuild South Africa and Africa like they Built the Western world 🤔
If it’s on Twitter or tic tok it can’t be true. Doncha know ? The only truth is what the govement er a main stream media tells us
Mainstream media 100% works for democratic party. Could say it's govt run media. THE EXACT OPPOSITE of what the press is designed to do.
