  1. Ga Nurses Who Work Nights

    I had to work nights to get the position I wanted (Neuro ICU). I did it for four months and I became accustomed to it. I didn't like it too much because the rest of the world was awake and alert while I was sleeping or wishing I was asleep. You may l...
  2. Anyone Going To Macon State

    Good Luck heyGirl. I would suggest making yourself as well known around the office as possible, even with Bobbie and Michelle. They aren't the most pleasurable people to deal with but I feel they sometype of influence (even though they are secretarie...
  3. **Alert**Our Right to Privacy as nurses???

    You would figure that with the shortage of nurses you would want to protect the ones they have. Jim
  4. **Ga. Nurses, We need Help!!!

    nursekitty, here is the reply i got from to the letter i sent to the secretary of state, it doesn't look good for us. changing a law in ga is just rediculous. at least we can change it to our place of practice or a po box. i would just hate not to do...

  6. **Ga. Nurses, We need Help!!!

    As discussed in another thread, Ga. still shows your home address when you type in the name and state of a licensed RN. For our safety and that of our families, this needs to be changed Please go to this website and request that your personal informa...
  7. **Alert**Our Right to Privacy as nurses???

    I think city and state is a little better but not if your from a town of 1200 folks. Anyway, I think it should just show your name, state, license number and if it is valid or not, any other info needs to be protected. I am going to start a push in ...
  8. **Alert**Our Right to Privacy as nurses???

    Thanks for the quick replies and I am glad to see it's not in every state. Jim
  9. I am not sure if anyone has discussed this before but I think this needs action from us all.... I just went to the Secretary of State website to find out the status of my license and realized I could type a last name of any licensed nurse and find th...
  10. how many hours each day, you spent studying for NCLEX?

    2-3 hrs a day (45 min-1 hr chunks) for about 3 weeks. Used Saunders, lippencott and Meds Pub. I then took 3 days off to party in Charleston SC, last day, a light reveiw on ABGs and Lab values. Passed with 163 questions. Not great but it worked for me...
  11. NCLEX was harder than any practice questions

    You know, I took the test last week and I agree the questions we study with aren't even close to whats on the NCLEX but I think you need about a 35% to pass. At least that is about what I figured I my score to have been and I still passed. I know I a...

  15. Want to be a Nurse..need advice

    Hey Erik, Lilypad gave you some good advice on the Algebra thing, my school just required Math Modeling for the ASN program. On the Nursing side of it (which I think you also inquired about) the nursing experience is based on the individual themsel...
