  1. RNs vs LPNs

    This sounds like my facility!
  2. Pharmacology help

    When I first learned pharm, I made my own flash cards. Put the brand name on one side and the generic on the other. You can also put a few drugs names on one side and the drug class on the other. Also learn side effects specific to that drug; don't g...
  3. Best Places to Buy/Rent Student Books

    I initially rented my pharm book from Barnes and Nobles then bought it out right. Last quarter I went to half price books and bought a BRAND NEW PREVIOUS EDITION med surg book for 6.99 and my OB book for 20.00. IN BOTH BOOKS, EVERYTHING WAS THE EXACT...

    how do/did you detach from being an lpn while in school? I don't know how to do that?
  7. Studying for nursing classes

    THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE RESPONDED TO ME! I'M SO APPREACIATIVE FOR YOUR HELP in trying to keep me from making the same mistakes when I re-enroll in school (hopefully within the next 2-3 months)! I saw something on youtube (I think...lol!) where you ...

  9. Studying for nursing classes

    I can too but, I wonder if not revisiting it is causing a problem for me with regard to "knowing" what the question is asking to be able to pick the best answer. There has to be a strategy in answering the questions to pass the tests. I imagine they ...
  10. Studying for nursing classes

    Exactly. That's what I wanted to know. When I was in LPN school years ago, I did fabulous. This past quarter, I did horrible. I had never until this past quarter, failed a nursing test. It was unbelievable. My m.s. instructor told me that I needed to...

    How does the Nursing Foundations class help you answer the questions correctly?
  12. Studying for nursing classes

    In my opinion, any more, no. The way the tide is turning, everything is RN....mostly BSN. It seems as if the associate degree RN is being held to nursing homes and home health, but not all ADN'S. But, if you feel more comfortable in getting your LPN ...
  13. Studying for nursing classes

    Hey everyone! As some of here may know (or not) I was recently in a LPN-RN Bridge program. I decided to withdraw from the program after this past quarter was officially over for a few reasons....mainly because I was way past burned-out and it was af...
  14. That sucks for them because I just accepted another ft position at my old job. I've decided that I will no longer fixate on things I can't change. Doing so only prolongs my temporary feelings of rejection and inadequacies as a nurse. Make no mistake...
  15. I interviewed for a position 2 days before new years eve by 2 different managers separately in the same day. They both seemed enthusiastic about wanting to hire me and told me they looked forward to working with me and I expressed the same. I left th...
