   Thank you everyone who participated and showed interest in this survey. Here are some interesting results from the survey: Only 55% of nurses felt safe at work, and 62% well-informed. 69% of respondents felt emotional exhaustion and 75% reporte...

   ck12 posted a topic in Florida

   Hello, my name is Casey and I am a DNP-FNP student at the University of Arkansas. The COVID-19 pandemic has touched the lives of all nurses, whether working directly with COVID-19 patients or not. Nurses are considered one of the scarcest resources...

4. still getting my feet wet

   ck12 replied to medsurgRNCali's topic in New Nurse

   You will get there. You're doing all the right things. Everyone asks questions. MUCH better to ask questions than to be unsure and potentially cause patient harm. Nursing skills can be learned and taught, but compassion and caring can't. Think of thr...

5. I am new to nursing but I don't want to do this anymore

   ck12 replied to newgradkat's topic in New Nurse

   Being a new nurse is SO hard! But you have to give yourself a break. Give yourself at least one year in your current position. I used to do a quick review in the car ride home of all the good things I did at work and the things I would have liked to ...

6. Difficulty Level: ABSN vs NP school

   ck12 replied to PhillyNurse11's topic in NP Students

   The timeline of an ABSN program is just insane! As an NP student, I can tell you it is not as "difficult" as undergrad was for me, but that's because you already kinda speak the language. In NP school you're learning a new role and information needed...

7. Dilemma: FNP or AGNP -final semester

   ck12 replied to FNPOwlGal's topic in NP Students

   I'm an FNP student currently and completely relate to the preceptor struggle, especially those specialties! If you aren't passionate about peds or womens health and those are causing the most headache, switch. If you would only want a career in adult...

8. Getting ghosted by my preceptor

   ck12 replied to mzjanedoe's topic in NP Students

   I agree with above posts. As a current NP student I understand the struggle with preceptors, but this is too important for her to not address. Call and email her, but if there's still nothing I would go to the clinic. Is this a preceptor the school a...

11. Learning anatomy terms

    ck12 replied to caylalane's topic in Pre-Nursing

    As a student in anatomy now, the sooner you can start the better. Coloring books can be helpful if you're a visual learner! I would recommend just spending a little time each day going over it. That really adds up and will help you a lot. There are a...

12. senoir in high school assosicates or bachelors in nursing?

    ck12 replied to spizike718's topic in Pre-Nursing

    There are an increasing amount of hospitals "phasing out" nurses with associate degrees, meaning employers want you to already have a bachelors degree or go back to school for one. I understand your hesitation, but heading on the bachelors path will ...

    ck12 posted a topic in Job Hunt

    Hello everyone! I am currently a pre-nursing student, fortunately already admitted into the nursing school. I've heard in some areas it can take months to find a job after graduating. Therefore, I am looking for any suggestions on programs, activitie...
