  1. Interview at hospital for PCT position, but no experience

    I started out as a pct in a hospital. I had no experience. Of course, my mom was and still is one of their best RNs. Most of my coworkers had no experience when they started. They train you. It's MUCH easier than being an stna in a nursing home. If ...
  2. If YOU were the patient, would you feel comfortable...

    A few years ago, I visited my sister in L&D after the birth of her daughter. She was in the exact same room I had been in 3 years earlier when I had my son. Her 2 year old daughter was playing on the floor. I almost puked....because when I was th...
  3. I agree with the op. It is wrong to call yourself a nurse if you aren't one.
  4. I got the labor and delivery job!!!

  5. what color is your ink?

    Red to check off orders.
  6. Oh no they didn't...uniform changes in florida

    That's very sad. The uniforms they usually want you to wear are so uncomfortable and don't fit! When I wear ill fitting clothing I feel so stupid and am less productive because I am thinking about how ridiculous and unprofessional I look! At the hosp...
  7. facebook "stalking" as a nurse?

    I had a patient a few years ago who somehow knew what city I lived in. He told every nurse and aide that walked in his room what city they lived in too! I also had a psych patient who somehow knew I was a single parent, how many kids I had, where I l...

    Before the death of my niece, I was in the room with a family when their 45 year old mother died of cancer. One of her 19 year old twin sons had left the floor to smoke and the other twin met him in the hallway. They grabbed eachother and fell to the...
  10. worst death you've seen

    I have seen many deaths. The worst was when my 2 year old niece died in 2009. My mother (who is also a nurse) and I washed and combed her hair afterward. I'll never forget my sister begging us to do something about all that gunk in her daughter's hai...
  11. Things colleagues have taught me NOT to do...

    Don't take your shoes and socks off to shower a patient (so you don't get your new shoes wet). Nasty.
  12. Some people should just stay quiet!!!

    The daughter's comments were rude and insulting.....you have every right to be offended. Why is everyone else being so rude about it too?
  13. when do you tell your pregnant? and shingles question

    You don't catch shingles. You can catch chicken pox if you have never had them before. Some physicians will say there's a risk to your fetus others say there is NO risk. Usually we don't let pregnant nurses or PCAs in the room with a shingles patient...
  14. HESI Exit Exam Question

    My school requires 850 to pass. I got 1059. I didn't study at all. Just use your critical thinking skills.:)
  15. LPN students have to give bed baths to classmates?!

    1) This is not about YOU. 2) The comments you made were uncalled for. 3) There is absolutely NO reason a nursing student should be forced to undress and be touched by a classmate.
