  1. This is exactly what I said when I got my RN license! Cheap piece of paper (corner of a piece of paper really) and I had to cut it out myself even! Really I did all that hard work, crying, stress, sleepless nights, weight gain.... for this?! LOL my g...
  2. CNA's taken off schedule after passing boards?

    I was/am a medical assistant prior to receiving my RN. I notified my work when I got my license on June 5th. They did hire me for an RN job but it doesn't start until sept so they told me I could continue my MA position until then. Even though I'm of...
  3. This disorganization is making me very anxious!!

    Yeah our school was very disorganized starting from block 1 orientation alllllll the way through block 4. From the FA office, to the homework schedules/calendars, to the clinical groups... My school was also a top ranking school and the first thing t...
  4. Am I being offered a fair pay?

  9. Taking NCLEX-RN in 6 days..

    Sounds like you are studying just fine! That's what I did was questions questions questions. Nothing can prepare you for the anxiety you will go through no matter how hard you study and how well you do studying. You're going to leave the test feeling...
  10. Nursing school excitement...

    i remember i was so happy i was literally jumping with joy and couldn't get a word out! I found out when I was at work and my co-worker couldn't figure out what the heck was wrong with me... I finally pointed to my email and at first she didn't get i...
  11. Why I guard the referral telephone like a dog...

    Exactly! I see this as a teaching moment or training. No need to make her feel worse! I'm more of a "find a solution" type person.
