1. How do you feel about wearing the nursing caps for pinning?

   tnrose replied to MnemonicFanatic's topic in General Students

   I'm not planning on attending either myself, but I am curious from your reply if it is necessary in your school to attend in order to graduate, from your post it seems that

2. Concerns with brand new nurses

   tnrose replied to NursePeace's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

   I have to say that I don't think NursePeace was rude in her postings. 2 years may not be a lot of experience, but you can see and learn a lot in those 2

3. "Your patient in 520 is in pain!"

   tnrose replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

   Again, I feel like some pt's, (especially those with chronic conditions), are scared they wont' get the meds in a timely manner like they do at home so they get a little stressed. Maybe it's because...

4. "Your patient in 520 is in pain!"

   tnrose replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

   That's what I've been trying to say, the CNA's/ PCP's are part of the nursing team, it's those PT's and housekeepers that really get on my

5. "Your patient in 520 is in pain!"

   tnrose replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

   I agree, I medicate if I have an order unless decreased resp., LOC, etc. I think it's easier for me as a nurse, the rest of the staff, and the pt. if I follow the doc's orders, it's not for me to...

6. "Your patient in 520 is in pain!"

   tnrose replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

   I really don't consider CNA's/PCP's ancillary staff, is it just me?? I think of RT, PT,

7. "Your patient in 520 is in pain!"

   tnrose replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

   I wouldn't consider you ancillary staff. I see the Aids/PCP's at our facility as valuable resources for this type of information. I always listen because for the most part they are as familiar, (or...

8. "The Disruptive Behavior of Doctors"

   tnrose replied to dharmanurse's topic in General Nursing

   Why do you doubt they spend time in forums like this complaining? Do you feel like it's because they are more mature, or it's because of the status you assign to someone with a MD behind their

9. Nursing school Experience

   tnrose replied to MystyqueOne's topic in General Students

   I actually spent more time on assignments than preparing for the tests. I am one of those people who cram the day before the exam. I'm sorry to say that I have had a terrible experience with nursing...

10. Almost the end of the semester and I would rather...

    tnrose replied to happilymarried's topic in General Students

    I know what you mean, it's all I can do to drag myself out of bed and into clinical or class, I think because it's almost the end I'm just so over

11. Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology, anyone successfully complete these in one term?

    tnrose replied to Ickles's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    oh yes she can, don't

12. Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology, anyone successfully complete these in one term?

    tnrose replied to Ickles's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can do it. I took micro, A & P, and Problem Stats in one semester while working part time, ended up with A's in all. Don't get me wrong, it didn't come easy, I was almost insane and totally...

13. My clinical instructor threw me out of clinical!

    tnrose replied to Nightbloom's topic in General Students

    Uhh, Had a nursing instructor tell a student she had "deserted her patient" just the other day in clinical, because she held off on changing a dressing that she was instructed to do in order to help...

14. My clinical instructor threw me out of clinical!

    tnrose replied to Nightbloom's topic in General Students

    And it should also allow time to mistakes and time to learn from them to

15. My clinical instructor threw me out of clinical!

    tnrose replied to Nightbloom's topic in General Students

    I think that a nursing student in clinical could certainly be flustered, and appear that way as well without realizing it. I thought that the clinical experience was supposed to also be a learning...
