1. New to ltc, questions after 1st orientation

   nursestudent743 replied to SneakySnake's topic in Geriatric

   Sounds like where I work. No one but me wears gloves during glucose checks. Cdiff residents have precautions outside their doors, but no one uses them. Just do what you know is right. You won't be the one catching something or passing it to other...

2. Where should I live? West Ashley or Summerville?

   nursestudent743 replied to oguesswhat's topic in South Carolina

   I lived in West Ashley for a year and really liked it. I had no kids at the time, so it was a alright place. Summerville can be a lengthy drive with traffic.

   nursestudent743 posted a topic in General Nursing

   Hey everyone. I have a interview tomorrow and was wondering if anyone has an idea of pay for a independent behavioral health RN? It is not affiliated with a hospital, and is for profit. It is located in SC. I am afraid they are going to ask me fo...

6. NCLEX comparable to what you studied?

   nursestudent743 replied to beachgirl2011's topic in NCLEX

   I see you are doing questions on your ipod. Are you doing the ATI mobile app? I thought it was easier than the nclex. Saunders I found to be pretty darn close. Questions seemed to be all over the place on topic areas, but if you just really think...

8. i took by boards today && does PVT work over the phone?

   nursestudent743 replied to juh_lee_suh's topic in NCLEX

   I don't know if it works on the phone, but since we know it works on the internet why don't you just try that? Good Luck!!

9. Any way to know i passed nclex before 48hrs

   nursestudent743 replied to misah_rosira's topic in NCLEX

   I would do the pvt trick. But as someone else said, just be ready for good or bad news. I got bad news and wasn't prepared for it. Took a few days off to cry about it and got right back to studying. Good luck!

10. ATI Predictor in relation to passing/failing the NCLEX

    nursestudent743 replied to Amberjo's topic in NCLEX

    I wouldn't put to much into it. I got a 92% on the ATI predictor test and let it get me way over confident. I didn't study hardly at all and failed the nclex:( Getting ready to take it again, just doing tons of ATI tests. Good Luck!

    As a manager, whats your advice on when is close enough to graduation to apply for jobs? I graduate the first week of December and plan to take NCLEX right after, but don't want to annoy the managers by applying to early.

12. Has anyone gotten pregnant and continued w/NS?

    nursestudent743 replied to kk83's topic in General Students

    Maybe you could try to plan it? During school we only have one summer off, otherwise it is straight through. I was pregnant during school, got off for summer in May, had the baby in July and was back to school by August. I was pretty tired during ...

13. Case study help Please!

    nursestudent743 replied to nursestudent743's topic in Student Assist

    I am not given the reason why his 02 is low. I looked up uremia and hadn't thought about that one at all. Also seems to fit for alcohol withdrawal, I just need to figure out if this stuff is still possible four days out. I assume that it is. This...
