   Rosa Cabrera, RN replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX

2. Four students to take care of one pt. at Clinicals ?!

   Rosa Cabrera, RN replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

   Sorry to hear that. I was never assigned to work with another student but I can imagine it be bothersome. Sometimes even with you just working with the nurse you miss out on things if you're not on top of your pt and your nurse cause they will forget...

3. Need Help with Pediatrics Rotation

   Rosa Cabrera, RN replied to MimismomRN's topic in General Nursing

9. Can't get a job!!!!

   Rosa Cabrera, RN replied to shinyblackcar's topic in New Nurse

   When you apply for these jobs do you do them online or do you go in person? There is such a huge advantage when you not only go in person but when you speak to the HR recruiter before even turning the application in. Also, make sure you have your let...

14. Is Saunders better than Kaplan?

    Rosa Cabrera, RN replied to Rosa Cabrera, RN's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks to everyone for your replies. This second time around I relied SO HEAVILY on Kaplan's decision tree that, like someone else mentioned, I completely forgot what the question was asking me in the first place. Also about Kaplan's policy, they do...
