Head Cracker. Mind Boggler. Boring. Boring. Boring. Just few words I use to describe Nursing Theories. When I was a student and up until I came across the site currentnursing.com. This site covers most of major nursing disciplines: research, psych, management, specializations, theories, etc.
One good thing about this site is that it helped understand better about certain topics, especially nursing theories. The author had arranged the subtopics well that it saves you from the burden of trying to think what the theorist is trying to convey in their ten-to-hundred-paged articles. No non-sense, I say. And with lots of links to other online nursing resources, it really is a good page to start navigating the web in search for nursing knowledge. My rating: 8/10.

Nursing Theories - Current Nursing Site Review
November 2009 Nurses' Licensure Examination Released!!!!...
After such a long wait, they have finally released it. And as usual, less than half of the takers have passed, 37,527 out of 94,462(39.73%). Just to show the quality of education some of the Nursing schools in our country have. Where will those 56, 935 go? Is this the price they have to pay for not being good students? Or they're just unlucky to be in these what they label "fly-by-night" schools. Whatever, its a sad feat as a whole.
Yes, the almost 40% are cheering now, so also are their schools, bit there are more of those who are somewhat depressed or worse, destroyed (quotation here..:)).
On the other hand, here are the top performing schools of the said exam.. Click on the image to view more..
Nursing Back Video
This is a "promotional" video on nursing posted on youtube, trying to bring nursing "back". But somehow it generated some not-so-nice comments about nursing as a whole. See for yourself and share your ideas.
