1. help decoding a prescription...

   MyReign1 replied to whosyourbadkitty's topic in Pain

   The order was incomplete, it does not have a time frame. What if she/he needs the percocet every hour. The doc probaly couldn't even read his own writing.

2. help decoding a prescription...

   MyReign1 replied to whosyourbadkitty's topic in Pain

   Could the circle with a dot be a Q, the 8L=8h, and the PNN = PRN? So it would say "Q 8h PRN" = "Every 8 hours as needed." Just a suggestion. Remember to clarify, though.

3. I got fired!

   MyReign1 replied to zoeintx's topic in General Nursing

   Discrimination does not seem to be an issue here. Either you falsely documented patient care or you did not. If you did not then you have a case against the facility. The race of your coworkers is irrelevent and should not be brought up. It only ...

4. Second degree: NET Required?

   MyReign1 replied to chioma829's topic in General Nursing

   I had a BS before I started nursing school. I was required to take the NET.

5. Any Public Health nurses here?

   MyReign1 replied to nurscee's topic in Oklahoma

   Marilynmom, Don't let what you hear about med/surg scare you. Med/surg was one of the best clinical rotations for me except for leadership which was on a med/surg telemetry floor, ER and ICU. Med/Surg is where you learn your skills. I didn't care ...

   I also received a C in anatomy. I was pledging a sorority that semester. I was accepted and graduate this Friday.

7. nclex review: to take or not to take

   MyReign1 replied to mrhrn06's topic in New Nurse

   I was offered a position at a hospital that is paying for the review for me. I probably wouldn't take it otherwise but since it's free, I definately won't pass it up.

8. Can't find a job

   MyReign1 replied to bigmona's topic in New Nurse

   Definately follow up with a phone call. I did the very thing at one hospital, comes to find out they had misplaced my app. The recruiter was so happy that I had called that, the day I interviewed, I was offered the job on the spot. Good Luck!!

9. QUICK! How much did the NCLEX cost?

   MyReign1 replied to GermPhobe's topic in New Nurse

   I graduate in May. $85 application fee, $200 test fee.

10. heard something about TCC...

    MyReign1 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Oklahoma

    The base starting pay is more like $17/hr + differentials. I interviewed in Tulsa though where it is only slightly higher. New grads are able to work in ER in some hospitals although it isn't recommended. I eventually want to work ER so I'm starti...

11. heard something about TCC...

    MyReign1 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Oklahoma

    The paper is supposed to be 20-25 pages. But this semester we had to do 3 papers. The other two were group papers and had to be atleast 25 pages. Our research II paper ended up being 53 pgs. Tips: It is a definite transition from regular test to ...

    I attend UCO.

13. heard something about TCC...

    MyReign1 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Oklahoma

    Hey Marilynmom, You may be in my class. I also attend UCO. Are you a senior? If so have you finished your leadership paper yet? I'm such a slacker, I'm still only 5 pages in. I plan to have it finished by Thursday though. That's my goal.

14. heard something about TCC...

    MyReign1 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Oklahoma

    That isn't true at all. If the only difference were prerequisites then a community college could readily confer BSNs, since most prerequisistes are sophomore level classes anyway. You guys have about 37 hrs of nurse only curriculum where as we have...

15. Relocating to Tulsa

    MyReign1 replied to awsmrn's topic in Oklahoma

    I believe that you can atleast make that if not a little more. I'm a new grad graduating in May and my offered salary isn't too far from that more if I include my differentials. Plus I was told I would recieve a raise after orientation and a second...
