1. Yelled at by a doctor for the first time....

   malire replied to KayceeLeeRN's topic in New Nurse

   I was in the same situation about 2 weeks ago. As a new nurse (and a shy person) I had no idea what to react and the MD made me feel like crap even though I was RIGHT. He had placed an order that was incorrect, I paged him "Why was that ordered?" a...

2. Need some encouragement

   malire replied to KayceeLeeRN's topic in New Nurse

   Thanks, crb! All the nurses on my unit keep saying it takes at lest 6 months before you start getting the swing of it. I have no choice but to believe them after 4 years of classes and nursing school there's no quitting yet. I knew it was going to...

   Wow! 8 patients! I'm a new grad, too. I just got an extra week of orientation and have only 2 weeks left. At my hospital we have 4-6 patients and I'm having trouble just juggling that. I don't think any more would be safe. I think most Magnet h...

   malire replied to 2Cats's topic in Maryland

   I feel your pain! I was in your shoes 6 months ago. Do you live in MD or withing a 5 hour drive? I would recommend going to the office and picking up an application. They will NEVER answer the phone and if they respond to your emails you will be...

   Congrats! We did it! That test was very evil! What's the point of making us feel like an idiots? Why not just throw us a few bones to make us feel like we're doing alright?! It doesn't seem right that now matter how well you do, you're still gon...

9. Yes 75 Questions

   malire replied to Anjum's topic in NCLEX

   That's what I keep thinking, dmn. I always heard that if it's hard and you get 75 then you passed. Did you try the website for the NY board of nursing?

10. Yes 75 Questions

    malire replied to Anjum's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for the confidence, Cyndie! It definitely feels good to know I'm not the only one who walked out of there and wanted to cry. It was so hard. I expected it to be more like the review questions where at least half of them I could answer with ...

    The Board of Nursing Website. I think we might be able to get our results faster that way (and without paying extra!). Here is the site for NY: http://www.op.nysed.gov/opsearches.htm Good luck! I'm going back to cleaning again because I can't chec...

    malire replied to Anjum's topic in NCLEX

    I took it yesterday with 75 questions too. Lots of meds I had never heard of. No calculations. I didn't even get many questions where ABCs, Maslow, Nursing Process helped like all the strategies say. It was hard! I was drinking wine last night to...

    malire replied to LanaBanana's topic in NCLEX

    Yeah, I've paid Pearson Vue the $200 and submitted everything to the BON. I'm just waiting to receive the ATT. I emailed the BON to make sure my application is complete with no word back yet. I think they're just really slow. I never received an ...

    malire replied to LanaBanana's topic in NCLEX

    I'm still waiting for my ATT from MD Board of Nursing. I submitted everything, they cashed my check, they should have received my transcripts the 1st wk of Feb. I don't know why it takes so long for ATT. I'm registered with Pearson Vue so I expect...

15. How to get Maryland Licensure, moving to MD

    malire replied to 2Cats's topic in Maryland

    Ok. I finally got a chance to go to the MD BON on Patterson Ave near Reisterstown. It wasn't bad at all. I got an application for licensure by exam and then I headed to the CJIS at the other end of the shopping center to have my fingerprints done ...
