1. Entering the world of infusion nursing

   kmn0601 posted a topic in Infusion

   I am interested in infusion nursing as something that I might want to branch out into. (I'm exploring a few specialties now but infusion has been an interest of mine). I am still a new nurse, 1 year of experience on a telemetry and stroke unit. Altho...

2. Adult to NICU

   kmn0601 posted a topic in NICU

   Hi everyone, I am considering applying for an internal transfer to my hospital's NICU unit. Right now I work on an adult medical/surgical floor specializing in stroke and neurological complications but we still see a large variety of patients. I fee...

3. Nursing Student From Hell

   kmn0601 replied to DWelly14's topic in General Nursing

   She needs to be failed. I am a recent graduate and if I ever acted this way and avoided doing things like this with my instructor or other nurses I was paired with, I would not have passed the clinical. When I was acquiring new nursing skills in scho...

4. Had a day that reminded me of why I became a nurse.

   kmn0601 replied to mmc51264's topic in General Nursing

   Thanks for sharing your story. I am just getting started off in nursing (passed NCLEX last month) and it seems more and more all I see here is negative stories about nursing. Yours encourages me. I'm looking forward to getting started.

   Took the NCLEX early this afternoon. Took 68 minutes and it shut off at 75 questions. Got home an hour later and tried the PVT. I entered everything in correctly except I put the wrong expiration date on my Visa and got the good pop up. Did it a litt...

   I am planning on using Saunders, Uworld, and NCLEX mastery. I may add to the list. I just graduated on December 15th.

8. BS in Nursing vs BSN

   kmn0601 posted a topic in ADN/BSN

   I am in an accelerated RN program. From what I was told at the beginning, we would be awarded a BSN at graduation. We just received an email stating we will be graduating with a BS not BSN in nursing. I have been looking through the forms and it appe...

   kmn0601 replied to lilsebastian's topic in Connecticut

   Congrats to all those who were accepted. I am a student in the current cohort. It has been a long road. It will be worth it in the end but do not think it will be easy. There were numerous "bugs" that had to be worked out this year. Enjoy your free t...

10. Sim lab difficulties

    kmn0601 replied to kmn0601's topic in General Students

    Thank you! I hope you are right. I am going to try to look at it more as if I am walking someone through doing the procedure instead of looking at it just as patient care. The part that was flustering to me was that I knew what I had to do in the sim...

    I am almost done with the first semester of my accelerated BSN program. I have both clinical and simulation lab. In clinical I feel as if I am doing well. My instructor has commented on my attention to detail and ability to conduct a thorough assessm...
