1. Private circulating nurse

   srandall1492 replied to ORoxyO's topic in Operating Room

   Where I work there is a nurse that works for a specific Dr. in his office, and when he is at our hospital doing cases she seems to always be in there. I'm sure the other hospital can make it happen for you, but does he do enough surgeries there for ...

2. book recommendations for the OR needed

   srandall1492 replied to jglover4168's topic in Operating Room

   In our peri-op class we are required to have Alexanders as well as the AORN standards of practice. I agree with the above comment, none of the reading is exciting. Good luck!

   First, congratulations on becoming a new RN and also for getting an interview! It was only a few months ago that I got my first interview as a new RN, and it was for the OR! My interview process was somewhat long and very scary! I remember one que...

   So I just saw these questions and....I PASSED! It went to question 78 and shut off...and I've had my license since the 15th of July. Thanks for asking! :)

5. circulating nurse = "go-fer" with no use for "real" nursing skills?

   srandall1492 replied to RunnerRN2015's topic in Operating Room

   I'm so glad I came across this thread. I have an interview for neuro OR this Wednesday, but with no OR experience I really have no idea if that's what I want to do. I really want a job, but all through school and my final preceptorship my goal was ...

6. Should I be worrying about NCLEX-RN?

   srandall1492 replied to amc248's topic in NCLEX

   You and I are in the same boat...magna cum laude and BSN- congrats! Only difference is my graduation was yesterday; however, I haven't taken a nursing course since May! I am not proud to say it...but I only studied for 2 days. I got my ATT Monday,...

8. Really worried about Nclex!

   srandall1492 replied to Future Nurse T's topic in NCLEX

   The best time to learn not to doubt yourself is in practice. Write down the ones you started to doubt but left with your gut instinct...you will see that you were right to begin with! I took the NCLEX today...and I was doubting EVERYTHING. For som...

   srandall1492 replied to sunshine80's topic in NCLEX

   Okay, when you log in to Pearson you should be on your recent activity page. Under recent appointment history you should see the test you had scheduled and took Wednesday, and on the far right it should say "delivery successful." After you have see...

10. How long should I study?

    srandall1492 replied to AstronomyNerd86's topic in NCLEX

    It all depends on the person. I haven't taken a nursing course since capstone in May, and I studied for the past two days and took my NCLEX today. I'm getting the good pop up, but nothing official yet. Everyone I know says you can't go wrong with ...

12. Need advice

    srandall1492 replied to butterflygirl55's topic in NCLEX

    I'm sorry you had to go through this, but after taking the NCLEX today...I don't know how you can ever feel fully confident going in. The only thing I can think is that maybe you over-studied? I studied for two days for NCLEX...just doing questions...

15. NCLEX on FRIDAY! Only have 3 days to study...

    srandall1492 posted a topic in NCLEX

    So for so many reasons/excuses that I won't waste time explaining...I finally got my ATT and the only test date available before I go on vacation for 2 weeks is THIS Friday...which gives me 3 whole days to study. I see on here how people studied for...
