1. How far do you drive for work?

   TriceRN replied to CNM2B201?'s topic in General Nursing

   I'm jealous of the commute some of you guys have! My case is 52 miles away from my home. The commute is at least 55 minutes, that's during the weekends when there is absolutely no traffic. During the week it takes between 1hr and 15 minutes- 1 hr and...

2. After what point?

   TriceRN replied to Lisa1980's topic in General Nursing

   I think this is different for everyone. I stopped considering myself a new grad around the 1.5-2 year mark.

3. What kind of holiday bonus do you get?

   TriceRN replied to cbcle's topic in General Nursing

   Not everyone is bitter, I assure you. I've never gotten anything more than a $20 gift card to Walmart, but I don't mind. I don't really expect anything during any holidays so whatever is given is truly a bonus. Latrice

5. Fundal check post BTL

   TriceRN replied to JaneyW's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Oh I'm sorry. I thought you were the nurse on the floor and they were working with you! I thought maybe it was something new that was being taught in nursing school or something. Wow, when you ask, please come back and let us know if you have time. I...

6. Fundal check post BTL

   TriceRN replied to JaneyW's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I've never heard of that either JaneyW. I wonder how many aren't doing fundal checks after BTLs. I'd much rather my patient be a little more uncomfortable temporarily than not check at all and there be more serious complications and consequences. So,...

    I took the keys to success class late in the game. I had to be readmitted back into the third semester and took it as a requirement to get back in. It was a really good class for the new class coming in. I wish they would have required it at the begi...

    TriceRN replied to AllyRN82's topic in Texas

    It really depends on the school. I've seen some schools in the area that don't take the test at all. I've seen others that just take it as a diagnostic tool, and others that have to make even higher than an 85%. Latrice

    TriceRN replied to AllyRN82's topic in Texas

    LOL I know, it can be confusing at times. I actually took the Hesi exam on Friday. I passed, so I am now eligible to take NCLEX. Hesi is the exit exam. The program requires that you pass with an 85% or higher to graduate. You are given two chances. I...
