Did you get to see what kind of care the patients got? Is it more typical of a med-surg floor, or are there big differences? What was your typical workday like?
Please tell me more! I am considering working there and would super appreciate some first-hand insight. Do you know anything about any of the other floors? What about it makes it horrible - is it the nurses, the doctors, the managers? Where are m...
Hi VA nurses, I just graduated in May '09 and just passed boards - I'll be starting on an oncology unit in a couple weeks. Speaking of - anybody have any good input regarding oncology and what all it entails? Unfortunately never got into the oncolo...
happyloser - Well, in your case, it was the nurse (extern) that was being a Bee-yotch! I know it can be like that, but I have noticed too that techs can be downright mean, especially to new or younger nurses, even though they didn't do anything to d...
I haven't gone through it yet, but I honestly won't be surprised if I do. A lot of people harbor either resentment or envy for many different reasons, and I have found that unfortunately they are not always like you and me - they don't try to overco...

I just took my nclex-rn on Saturday, and believe me, I was in the same exact shoes - not many "higher level" questions, a lot of "recall" - so when it shut off at 75, I knew in my heart that I had failed. I even had to wait THREE DAYS to get my resu...

p_one, I seriously think you are gonna be an amazing nurse - I know I don't know you, but your "aura" totally comes through and I can tell! Sounds cheesy, but what can I say! Seriously, I only really got a bit of a grip on myself after reading your...
Thanks p_one. I find out in less than 12 hours....my stomach is still in knots, and I cannot sleep for the life of me. It's like I've become possessed! When are you taking your exam again?
Thanks sincerely for the feedback, everyone - I will anxiously be holding my breath/enduring waves of stomach knots and nausea - until the MOMENT OF TRUTH (oh my Lord please please let me have passed - I can't even begin to think of the road ahead if...
Hey p_one -- how long after taking your test did you try going to the Pearson payment page? I just tried the trick and it won't let me pay; HOWEVER, the BON just told me over the phone that they do not have my results yet (even though I took my test...
I took my test on Saturday, July 25 - today is Monday, July 27, almost 10:00 am, and I am officially going CRAZYYYYY. I called the BON and they said they don't have my results yet!!! Everyone else I know that took it over the weekend got their resu...
You guys, I was feeling sick to my stomach until I read these. I took my test on Saturday, and my results are still not available on the automated verification line. EFFFFF. Can I study with you guys??
