Hi! I think I understand what you are asking!!! If I don't answer your exact questions, feel free to pm me. You can't take the NCLEX until after you graduate, and the school sends your paperwork/application fee and background check to the Board. (I...
I really like Glove Me Tender from Bath & Body Works. Also, when my hands get really cracked and sore, I have been known to slather on some Desitin (reg. not creamy) while I watch tv. I'm always amazed at how much better they feel afterwards.

That will all depend on whether or not Bohecker completely loses their accreditation with the OBON. Right now, they have Provisional approval, which means they used to have Full approval, but lost it due to no longer meeting the requirements of the ...
Hello! I recently graduated from the LPN program at Hondros College, and am currently enrolled in their RN program. However, due to financial reasons, I have decided that I am going to have to postpone getting my RN, and go to work. (It was a diff...

Typically, you will find out after HESI. Unfortunately, you will probably find that it will cause a lot of drama among your classmates--I have heard from multiple sources that it was said that I "only decided to move on after I saw my HESI score", b...

I haven't started an IV on anyone, yet, but I have given many injections. I have also done foley catheters (all female). None of them were too bad. I think if you really know your catheter procedure well, it makes it a lot easier. (And if you are...

Hello again! First term isn't really too bad. The only class you are required to take is A&P I, because you have already taken all of the gen eds for that term (they're the ones you took in the LPN program). So, that is why I recommend getting ...

Hi mitchsa! I am first term RN. Unfortunately, you cannot move Micro to your first term, because A&P I is a prerequisite for that class. Also, I'm not sure if they are going to change it back, but Public Speaking (I think they changed the name,...

You are welcome! And, I am glad to hear that you have the books to guide you! I think you will be surprised by how different the Atkins diet is, compared to what you have heard from people who have never bothered to read it!!! Good luck!!!

Atkins is hands down the most effective way I have ever lost weight. (You just have to have the willpower to keep going with it!) I don't consider it to be a "fad diet"--if you really think about it, it's pretty close to how we all should be eating...
That is exactly why they do it. They know that if you do well on HESI, you are more than likely to do well on NCLEX. My school requires an 850 on the exit HESI in order to graduate. They have it tied to one of our easiest classes (seriously--we di...
First bolded sentence--If you really knew me, you would realize that I have zero interest in anyone's sympathy. Again, I was simply trying to add some perspective to the "discussion". Second bolded sentence--I have no interest in fighting with you o...
Hmm....OK. I'm not sure I'm following you on that one. The OP started a discussion about drug seekers, and how ER staff deal with them. In addition to sharing one of my own personal experiences with this very issue, I simply tried to give a differ...
