  2. Noting Physicians orders

    I work in the Pediatric ICU and the nurse who initially fills the order is the one who notes it. Finally a 24 hour chart review is done on all orders for the past 24 hrs by the nite nurses anytime after 12 am.
  3. I just found out I failed at 75

    I am so sorry that you didn't pass. I know that the news had to be absolutely devastating. Take your moment (or two) to mourn and grieve, but then you must DEFINITELY move on. This is by no means the end, and it does not define you. When you are ...

    Thanks Pitbullgirl, and to everyone else that has replied. Exactly one week later and I am STILL waiting for the results. I have been told by former classmates that have taken the test that our state board updates their databases on Friday at 6pm. ...

  10. What if you got the last question wrong??

    Thanks you guys for your words of encouragement. I know that God did not bring me this far to leave me, but if I failed I failed because I did not help myself. I truly did not do everything that I could have and should have done to prepare for the ...

  12. What is your biggest nursing pet peeve?

    RNA = RN Applicant This is what my title is until I take (and pass) the NCLEX. You work as an RN with RN pay and privileges, but you're just an app!!
  13. What is your biggest nursing pet peeve?

    My biggest pet-peeve after reading a lot of these posts, is how it seems to be okay and accepted to make vast generalizations about BSN students or BSN prepared nurses! It has really teed me off time and time again when I read some of these comments...
  14. Hello, I am a newly graduated GN, from a BSN program. I believe the nursing shortage stems from a couple of reasons and that they all tie in to one another and just forms a vicious cycle. We have chosen a profession that does not really value educa...
  15. Am I doomed to never becoming a RN?

    Hello Salsaking. By being a nursing student you are entitled to tons of loans, programs, and grants. These vary in the amount of money you receive, but you can DEFINITELY live off of them. I am married and the mom of 2 and I just graduated from a ...
