1. Silly question about white scrub pants

   SeebachRN replied to rainbowbrite85's topic in Uniform/Gear

   You can find some that are better then others, I wore a cotton type verses a cotton blend. It was less see through. I also wore women's tight boxers as an undergarment with pants that are slightly looser then what I would normally wear you couldn't s...

   SeebachRN replied to Ciale's topic in Uniform/Gear

   Personally I believe any of the (small/short) or most of the JR/Petite's should fit you. For women with minimal curves make some. Get shirts that form fit or have back ties. Makes you look curvy even when its not natural. As for Tee's it depends on ...

4. Do you keep your rn shoes in the car after a shift?

   SeebachRN replied to fsv1024's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I wear them home, and kick them off either by the front door, or in the garage. Not specifically because of anything other then I dont like to wear shoes around my house. If they are really nasty sometimes I will clean them off or wipe them down but ...

   At my company we allow our floor staff to wear a simple ring (no raised stones), watch of course, and necklaces as long as they dont fall more then two inches from the neck when bending over a patient. As for earrings most all are fine, as long as th...

6. Looking for the PERFECT ink pen ;)

   SeebachRN replied to nkochrn's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I too love the Zebra Kendo retractable pens, but when they took away the ballpoint version I was sad for weeks. I decided that I couldn't take it anymore, so I went and bought the Zebra ballpoint refills and made the Kendo a ballpoint again. It's so ...

7. Nursing Interviews

   SeebachRN replied to crw109's topic in General Nursing

   When I was doing interviews we would ask similar scenarios. We had an interview board which consisted of a ER nurse, a HR representative, and a nurse from the floor we were hiring for. The scenario's usually were based off of the department we would ...

8. Littmann Card. III for nursing school?

   SeebachRN replied to bewitched's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I have two answers. I think in the beginning hearing less sounds is better, because your going to be learning the basics and it can get confusing so usually a cheaper scope is better. However towards the end of your schooling/clinical's your usually ...

   SeebachRN replied to RNJRA's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I love my Nursemates Ultimate Nursing Bag!!! I have it in several different colors and patterns. I change it out if I have a bad mess, or a spill and need to clean one. I also change them based of season. I have a really pretty beachy one that is mul...

10. Are all Littmann Cardiology III's pretty much the same?

    SeebachRN replied to HealerWoman's topic in Uniform/Gear

    Littmann used to be its own company, started by Eric Littmann. It was sold several years ago and 3M bought the brand. So it was not originally 3M, but since they bought it all Littmann products are made by 3M. Hope that clarifies.

11. Are all Littmann Cardiology III's pretty much the same?

    SeebachRN replied to HealerWoman's topic in Uniform/Gear

    Some Littmans can be replica's, however if you buy from a reputable site or store they usually are not. I buy the Littmann Cardiology III's from "medisave.net" and they are real, as well as cheap. I buy mine from 120-170 depending on the length, colo...

    SeebachRN replied to NurseHotFlash's topic in Uniform/Gear

    I personally love their cargo pants as well, and what originally got me to buy their scrubs was the pen pockets on the sleeves. It just made sense. I buy mine at dickies direct. Just Dickies.com - Quality Workwear Since 1922, and in NV they have a d...

    I work in ED, and I can say that I did go straight from nursing school however I was a paramedic for several years prior. My suggestion to you is to go in with your head held high, and with the knowledge that you know very little. The nurses should r...
