1. When do you throw in the towel and call it a wrap?

   stlmo replied to lilura's topic in Geriatric

   I have gone through a similar thing recently. I say take your vacation and also look for a new job. I found a new job within a week and they offered me a decent amount more money.

2. Just took nclex-pn and had to do all 205 questions. Don't feel good about it :-(

   I used UWorld

3. Super Anxious about NCLEX

   stlmo replied to FutureRn2018ly's topic in NCLEX

   I tried kaplan also, but i felt more comfortable with UWorld. It's not that kaplan wasn't helpful it's just that Uworld is more realistic to the actual test. The style of questions, the exhibits, the ordered response. The whole layout of the page is ...

4. Super Anxious about NCLEX

   stlmo replied to FutureRn2018ly's topic in NCLEX

   It's impossible to know everything so just make sure the questions you're doing are related to types of content listed on ncsbn. I found UWorld to be most like the actual NCLEX test as far as questions go. Once you take the actual test, just relax a...

5. Failed NCLEX

   stlmo replied to bsn3332's topic in NCLEX

   I don't know if it has been suggested yet, but you should try UWorld. I tried kaplan, hurst, and saunders before failing my first attempt at NCLEX. I did UWorld for a month prior to my 2nd test and passed.

   Long awaited update. I did end up taking NCLEX a second time. I passed it the second time and am officially a licensed LPN

7. Passed Nclex-PN with 85 questions

   stlmo replied to K.Nowel's topic in NCLEX

   What is the exact nclex mastery app you used? There's so many. I finished nursing school in August and failed my first nclex in October. Had 65+ SATA questions. I definitely feel like i will pass it the 2nd time but i could always use more study sour...

   Well now I know I failed. Got the letter today. Feel like complete crap

   stlmo posted a topic in NCLEX

   I had at least 60 select all that apply questions including 6 in the first 10 questions. Then about every 3rd question after that. It was very discouraging when it didn't turn off at 85, or 100, or 150 questions. All I can do now is wait, pray, and h...

10. Should I wait to have a baby?

    stlmo replied to AHobbs's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm about to finish nursing school. 2 girls in my class were preg when we started. One had to quit, the other has made it. So I guess it depends how much help you get from family and friends

11. Lpn clinicals and lecture content

    stlmo replied to FutureNurseKali's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    Davis's Drug Guide for Nurses. It tells you everything about the drug. What class it is, why you give it, what to monitor for on the patient.

12. Lpn clinicals and lecture content

    stlmo replied to FutureNurseKali's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    Yes you will do a lot of CNA work in the nursing home. My instructors have us do physical assessments on every patient we have, and we do care plans every week. The CNA work I personally did was taking vitals, feeding patients, cleaning up their poop...

13. Lpn clinicals and lecture content

    stlmo replied to FutureNurseKali's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I'm currently an LPN student about to graduate at the end of next month. I still have 3 more weeks of clinicals, and 2 weeks of preceptorship left, so I feel my advice will be the freshest to you. One of the things I've learned is that all the LPN pr...
