1. Running amiodarone through the proper line

   MzAmerykah replied to Keyley's topic in Infusion

   I too am sorry to hear this nurse acted in such a manner. Don't let her attitude get you down. We were all new at some point and we are all still learning. Perhaps once you find the answer, you can educate her. Was the Amio connected with an in-line...

   Hello all! For those of you that accepted offers at NYP are you at Cornell or Columbia? And how is orientation going? I am starting next month in the CCU at Cornell and am curious about orientation.

3. Hospice Nurse's comment.

   MzAmerykah replied to MN-Nurse's topic in Spirituality

   Just as an FYI, a Muslim would never say this. Muslims believe in and revere Jesus and his teachings. In caring for others of different religious views, especially in hospice, it is important for us as nurses to be culturally sensitive, which means b...

4. Hospice Nurse's comment.

   MzAmerykah replied to MN-Nurse's topic in Spirituality

   I agree with Jadelpn here. But I can't help but wonder if there was some sort of misunderstanding on the nurse's part; did he think Carol was talking about him and not the patient? It sounds like perhaps the nurse missed the prior convo, that you and...

   For those such as Mosalynn, who didn't wear the hijab until the job was secured, how did you go about doing so? Did you show up on your first day with it on or did you talk to management about your plans to wear it?

9. CNR applicants??

   MzAmerykah replied to trouble66's topic in New York

   Hi Trouble, I think they changed the admissions process after I started at the school and I am not sure what they are asking for these days. You should be able to take those prereqs at a local community college or perhaps look into Excelsior online c...

    MzAmerykah replied to BeautifulFlowerRN's topic in New York

    I am currently a student at CNR (2nd degree) with B+ gpa. I would only recommend the school to my worst enemy. The only good things at the school are 1) aesthetically pleasing campus and 2) the clinical affiliations are at the area's top medical ce...

    MzAmerykah replied to Vixen17's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hey Pyeung2, As far as I know, IT students can register for summer courses. I am currently taking a few as we speak. Whatever you've charted with Ms. G is not set in stone. I think when I met with her, she did the same with me and I just took it u...

    Hi Pyeung2, While you only posed this question to Goldruss...I thought I'd add my 2 cents just in case you find it helpful too. 209/209L: You definitely need the Fundamentals of Nursing book. I'd skip on the APA books, unless you are totally unfamili...
