Our standing orders when a patient is admitted to either Acute Hospice, Inpatient Hospice (Respite), or End of Life Cares are: Atropine 1% 1-2 gtts every 1 hour prn. We try to get a scopolamine patch on these patients as soon as they start getting m...
I would 100% recommend Med/Surg...A little background about myself: I got hired to Labor and Delivery...during my interview I asked what other positions they had open...they offered me three other positions - Medical-Oncology being one of them. I w...
Believe it or not, your test sounds very similar to what mine was on Monday - the only change is that I had more like 7-9 SATA. I left the testing center, and I went home to start studying again...I was so scared. My board of nursing had my results...
I couldn't imagine that you would lose the position. I am in SD and the facility that I am going to be starting at told me that if nurses don't pass boards the first time, they have a class they offer through the facility that they could take to hel...

I think you are feeling the same as I am...I take my boards tomorrow, and I feel like there is still so much to learn. However, I know that I have to at least try the NCLEX and if I don't pass, well then so be it, at least I tried... I will kick mys...
Thanks for the encouragement - I take my boards on Monday, and I feel like I can't study anymore...I just want this to be over with (and pass of course)!

I test on Monday, July 14th...super nervous - I passed PN boards with minimum amount on my first try. I so badly want to do the same this time!!! I have been studying Kaplan and Saunders. I plan to study from now until Saturday evening, and then I ...

Better late than never - I don't come on here very often, but here is my two cents...I attended Southeast Tech from 2004-2006 (and graduated from their LPN program) ... AWESOME school. Instructors are very knowledgable and excellent at what they do....
