Welcome to our new Nurse Educators discussion...

[Kalleh]

Hello. I have been a nurse educator for 20 years, and now I am in nursing regulation so I have a particularly unique view of nursing. If anyone has board of nursing, NCSBN or NCLEX questions, I can either answer them or find the right person who can.

Pastor Phil,
I used to teach junior nursing students on an oncology unit. They were often in their early 20s (some not even 21 yet), and often the most important death in their family had been a pet. So...this unit was very difficult for some of them. The absolute best clinical conference I had was when I brought in a Catholic nun and a Rabbi to talk about death and dying. This was a tremendous discussion, and I would highly recommend this to anyone teaching clinical nursing.

Kalleh,

Welcome to the site and we are very glad to have you! I look forward to seeing you online in the future. Thanks for lending your unique perspective to our boards. I'm sure it will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Pastor Phil, and welcome... I personally feel that a spiritual foundation and presence is essential in caring for sick and/or dying patients. I have a page on my site dedicated to Christian Nurses...

Hi
My name is Octavia and I have been a RN for 5 years. I currently work as a educator teaching nursing assistants, I also supervise at a subacute facility on the weekends.

Today I have just foung out that I have been accepted in the Master's Nursing Program, but I am undecided if I want to attend for NP or Nurse Educator. I love to teach, but I feel as if I will loose my skills if I only do Education, Does anyone have and advise for me?

Hi to all!
