1. Never been an OB nurse help!

   Julz034 replied to Vtachy1's topic in Ob/Gyn

   I'm not an OB nurse, just an experienced Momma! From my experience with four children, those are never on target. My last, they said she'd be 9-10lbs, she was 7 lbs 6 oz. Even the L&D felt my stomach and said did they estimate the weight on this ...

4. LTC Nursing...Who likes it, who doesn't?

   Julz034 replied to Julz034's topic in General Nursing

   I was thinking the same thing. I guess maybe different hiring managers/DON's look at it different, though. If you go to a hospital (which I have no intentions of, unless it's psych) maybe one has worked in LTC care and understands, and then maybe ano...

   Ahhhhhhhhhh! Now that makes more sense!

6. LPN to RN 1+1

   Julz034 replied to NurseHopefulInOH's topic in Ohio

   I go to Bohecker-Cincinnati. They're classes aren't bad. Your first term, you wanna study your butt off! I'm going into the second term, I hear it's nowhere near like the first term, and third term is easier than the first two. First term, I went mos...

7. pro life to work in ER OR OB

   Julz034 replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

   Hmmm interesting. I didn't know you weren't allowed to listen. And what I said was like, say a teen, which is a rare time, comes in pregnant, is upset, and is just depressed over the situation, maybe suicidal, needs immediate attention. You wouldn't ...

8. LTC Nursing...Who likes it, who doesn't?

   Julz034 replied to Julz034's topic in General Nursing

   I was wondering that too. I knew it meant "Laugh out loud", but she said she got hit by a "LOL". It must stand for something different on this board.

   Julz034 replied to animal1993's topic in Ohio

   I know this post is a couple of months old, however, wanted to let you know that Mercy does hire LPN's. They actually have around 5 postings for LPN's right now at their Mt. Airy location. Good Luck! =)

10. LTC Nursing...Who likes it, who doesn't?

    Julz034 replied to Julz034's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, I definitely think so as well. I worked with dementia patients when I worked in a NH in activites, and I loved it! I thought for sure I would hate it, but I preferred working with them, rather than the "stable" assisted living residents. I learn...

11. LTC Nursing...Who likes it, who doesn't?

    Julz034 replied to Julz034's topic in General Nursing

    Good! I'm SO glad to hear these responses. A lot of people seem to hate it, and think it's the bottom of bottom if nursing. I disagree, but of course, have no nursing experience in the area, so hearing your testimonials was such a comfort! =) Long te...

12. LTC Nursing...Who likes it, who doesn't?

    Julz034 posted a topic in General Nursing

    How many of you nurses, especially LPN's like LTC nursing? I ask because, if I can't get into mental health, which would be rare around here, right away, I'm going to LTC. I worked in LTC as an Activities Manager and I found it very rewarding and lov...

13. Prayers needed!

    Julz034 replied to rn4babies63's topic in General Nursing

    Definitely in my prayers! You're an angel to come forth like this and ask for prayers, there could be no one else out there saying prayers for this girl. God Bless You!

    Julz034 replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

    The OP stated she has no problem with birth control that doesn't let them child be conceived and then kill it. My friend is a strict catholic, and condoms are ok. If you're aware the birth control pill, you take it, possible conceive, and then it kil...

    Julz034 replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, and not sure where you're from, but in my hometown hospitals-- the nurses ARE the ones responsible for groups, one-on-ones, and counseling type sessions. They typically have 3 nurses on, as well as 2-3 mental health techs. My son has been in and ...
