  1. :uhoh21: Do you know any exp nurses? If you did, you would think it was funny. "Old" nurses are awesome. My ambition one day is to be an "old" nurse. They know everything!
  2. NCLEX Number of Questions and Clarification

    At the start of my LPN program, the instructors told us - "The state board's got nothing on us. We're going to work you so hard that when you take the Nclex, you'll think it was easy." They weren't kidding. The NCLEX asked general questions, nothin...
  3. Nurses with ADD/ADHD?

    I take meds. My dr wouldn't prescribe strattera - she was worried about liver damage. I felt like my meds helped for a while. But they don't seem to be helping as much lately. No I still am not very organized. I make fewer med errors now. I kn...
  4. Nurses with ADD/ADHD?

    I started this thread because I wanted to talk to nurses with ADD. Please save the "overabused" or "it doesn't exist" argument for another thread. I deal with these myths enough in everyday life.
  5. Nurses with ADD/ADHD?

    Hey all! I was wondering if there are any nurses with ADD/ADHD out there who want to comiserate and support each other? I know I need the help/advice. It might also be a place for "regular" people (I hate the word normal) to come and read and unde...
  6. Fortunately, this isn't much of a problem where I work (in a drug rehab) because so few of us have kids, and there's always someone chomping at the bit for the extra pay. I'd just like to make a request in general to everyone to never say - Wait til...
  7. Excelsior---College Network, RUE, Istudysmart.com, ????

    I am studying with Excelsior through CHANCELLOR'S. They are a LOT cheaper than the others.
  8. Introductions

    :) Hi everyone! I'm an LPN in La Crosse, WI. I work in a residential AODA facility for women (not as a nurse necessarily, but it comes in handy). I'm also on call at a nursing home. I just started Excelsior College through Chancellor's to get my...
  9. Difference Between a New Nurse and an Old Nurse

    Funny!!! A new nurse tries to impress the doctors. The old nurse knows that the doctors are impressed by him/her. The new nurse will work to prevent her patients from falling because she/he doesn't want them to be injured. The old nurse doesn't want ...
  10. How many of you were CNAs before become a Nurse?

    I was a CNA first and I think its the only way to go. You get some exposure to the field and get to test whether you like it or not. Also, it really gives you a heads up on nursing school.
  11. Nurses with bipolar disorder?

    Don't worry Kayte! When I transferred my nursing license from MO to WI, I had to list bipolar (although now I know - and am diagnosed with - ADHD, not bipolar) It was just delayed briefly because they wanted a letter from my doctor. Then it went t...
  12. Share Your Saying

    A personal saying of mine - "Sometimes I feel like I've been let into the adult world without a hall pass" -another (referring to my ADHD) I just don't have the same programs wired into my harddrive. -A favorite quote from STAR WARS "But Sir, no one...

    Trach Care by Mucus S. Green:rolleyes:
  14. help me stop making med errors!

    I can definitely relate to you bulky. I've had my ADHD diagnosed since April of last year. I never knew why I made so many med errors. It was very discouraging to fill out those Med Error Report sheets and come to the question - What steps could y...
  15. Need Advice On The Excelsior Program

    Chancellor's is alot cheaper than Rue or the College Network. They have a one week lab that you can go to that increased the pass rate of the CPNE from 60% to 92%. I'm an LPN with experience and a lot of other college credit. So this is the best o...
