1. What rhythms do I need to know for ACLS class

   Jimmah555 replied to Orion81RN's topic in General Nursing

   You just have to know the major rhythms. The blocks and stuff aren't really covered so much. If you want a good example of what you should know, go to the pre-course test. You have to complete it anyway prior to taking the class, and it's a good way ...

2. Have you ever cried when a Pt died

   Jimmah555 replied to Topaz7's topic in Hospice

   I've never cried in front of a patient or family/visitors, but I was a Pediatric Hospice Home-Care CNA for a while, and I broke down in my car many, many times. I'm great in a crisis or other situation, but I fall apart about an hour after it's all o...

3. CSN ADN Fall 2012 uniform & gear

   Jimmah555 replied to Twinkle toez's topic in Nevada

   Drawstring is a MUST! I started the program when they still said no drawstring, but I got them anyway. Nobody ever checked, and I'm about to start 4th semester. Get pants and a top that have POCKETS! You will end up carrying all kinds of stuff in you...

6. CSN Spring 2012 question

   Jimmah555 replied to michellegookin's topic in Nevada

   Hmm. I wonder why the names were edited. Is there some rule saying we're not allowed to use professor names? If not, they are ----, -----, ------. If so, they will be edited again and you can send me a private message if the names really mean that mu...

8. Anyone going to CSN this semester?

   Jimmah555 replied to Kchaffin's topic in Nevada

   Another tip: COM 215 is a lot easier than COM 101 in my opinion. No speeches, just a group assignment. Good luck! :-)

9. Drug Guide

   Jimmah555 replied to Jimmah555's topic in Nevada

   Yeah I got the Davis, the Mosby, and the Pearson drug guides along with the Mosby Distionary and Taber Dictionary. I have a total of 15 books now. Can't wait to lug them all around for group study sessions.

    Jimmah555 replied to SunshineDaisy's topic in Nevada

    Should I print up some business cards for this event or something? Not too sure how to give my contact info in an easy manner. Anyone have any ideas?

12. CNA jobs in Las Vegas

    Jimmah555 replied to Optimom's topic in Nevada

    The CNA market is really unfortunate here. I have been a CNA for about 18 months. It's absolutely a "who you know" kind of situation when it comes to acute care and hospital jobs. I currently have 2 home-care hospice jobs. I got lucky and got intervi...

13. Drug Guide

    Jimmah555 replied to Jimmah555's topic in Nevada

    I had some money left on that book grant, so I used it with the two drug guides, and I also got the Taber's Dictionary. Someone recommended it, and it's basically free with the grant, so I said why not?

14. Drug Guide

    Jimmah555 replied to Jimmah555's topic in Nevada

    I said screw it and bought the Davis and the Pearson. Better to have it an not need it than to need it and not have it right?

15. Drug Guide

    Jimmah555 posted a topic in Nevada

    Hey everyone. I was talking with a 3rd semester CSN RN student and he said that the Mosby drug guide sucks. He recommended the 2009 Prentice Hall drug guide instead because it helps you do the drug cards easier, and helps in clinical. I want to kn...
