   RNAC92 replied to RNAC92's topic in NP Students

   It's possible I haven't gotten there yet in the program but I haven't heard of it. I would just reach out to make sure. I'm "supposed" to be starting clinicals in a few weeks, but the coronavirus has stopped almost everyone from starting.

   RNAC92 replied to RNAC92's topic in NP Students

   No, they don't teach that. It's strictly primary care. People try to get urgent care clinicals for things like that but it's extremely hard to find one.

   RNAC92 replied to RNAC92's topic in NP Students

   Everyone I know that has had trouble with clinical sites, have had help in getting one but they do have limited resources so they tell people to find their own first. They found my peds site which was nice and I found my family med and gyn rotations.

5. What study strategies is getting you through Advanced Health Assessment?

   RNAC92 replied to strawberryluv's topic in NP Students

   I do practice boards questions for the subjects that will be on the exam. I find that's where my teacher gets her test inspiration from.

6. What would you do?

   RNAC92 replied to Hunt er's topic in General Nursing

   Have you thought about volunteering?

7. Can I be a nurse without majoring in BSN?

   RNAC92 replied to 4pplepie99's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hi 4pplepie99, In my opinion, I would rather "find myself" paying cc tuition rather than 4 year university tuition. Nursing related or not. You'll also start on a clean slate and transfer credits over that you completed. Just look into it and speak ...

8. Very First Nursing Job

   RNAC92 replied to AlmostThere19's topic in General Nursing

   I had the same experience. I would also get panic attacks before coming in. 4 years later and I'm a strong critical care nurse. You just have to power through and get experience behind you. The first couple of years are rough but if you don't give up...

9. New Grad RN..made a mistake!!!

   That's fine! Nothing to sweat about.

10. Hospital New Grad Orientation. I feel like quitting nursing.

    RNAC92 replied to PinoyRN123's topic in General Nursing

    This is a normal feeling. The most dangerous people are the ones that act like they own the place and are at ease with everything. That's how mistakes are made. You will be ok. It takes time to adjust.

11. Blood Transfusion

    RNAC92 replied to Elena88's topic in General Nursing

    Hello, I agree with btdt. It depends on facilities. Everywhere I've been, there is no air in the blood bag but you need to make sure your infusion set doesnt run dry. At my facility we can hang 2 prbcs back to back until we throw out the set. We also...

    Hi mag426, I just started this semester too. I'm doing my first year on-line and then I have to be on site for the rest. I'm taking advanced patho and health policy right now. I'm going part-time so I'll finish by Spring 2021. My school has partners...

13. Needle stick

    RNAC92 replied to VeraT's topic in Geriatric

    Hi VeraT, I understand how scared you must be. I've had a needle stick before too, although my patient came back clean. The fact that you started meds early also helps minimize the risk of getting the virus. I'm sure it will be ok. Accidental needle ...

    Sorry for responding months later. I did not start the program but I plan to start spring 19'.

15. Widener University FNP

    RNAC92 posted a topic in NP Students

    Hello, I am looking into Widener University for their FNP program and I wanted to know if there are any nurses on here that have been through the program/currently taking classes or are accepted, that have any information on it. I don't see any posts...
