1. Daily huddles

   Jeniele replied to Regina2's topic in Ambulatory

   I work in an ambulatory community health clinic. We don't typically have huddles, but we are a small facility. Often us 3 nurses will discuss in the morning if issues need to be addressed, items need ordering, etc. The schedule is made out the day...

2. New grad RN - is getting an outpatient job possible?????

   Jeniele replied to JoannaLeigh8790's topic in General Nursing

   I think it entirely depends on your locale and situation. I just graduated in June and will be starting in a clinic next week. I did apply to positions on the floor at a hospital where I had worked for several years as a CNA (though knowing I would...

3. I failed Nursing school by a few exam point & I don't want to start over. What are my options

   Jeniele replied to Sarwielittlebiigsis's topic in General Students

   Depending on your program you should be able to apply and sit for the NCLEX-PN to get your LPN. This will allow you to keep your skills and knowledge fresh while you look for programs and evaluate your options. You might be able to find one willing...

4. Starting a volunteer parish health ministry

   Jeniele posted a topic in Parish

   My congregation does not have a parish health ministry and I believe we might have a need for one. Has anyone started a new ministry at their church as a volunteer? What would be the best way to determine if there is a need and what services to off...

5. Sunday Breakfast Recipes

   Jeniele replied to Gods_nurse's topic in Parish

   In our house cereal (cold or instant oatmeal) is usually what happens. My oldest prefers Carnation Instant Breakfast because she finds solid food disagreeable before 10am. My other would be happy with frozen waffles. Pretty much everyone is on the...

6. What do they teach these days in school?!

   Jeniele replied to FeliciaRNCPN's topic in HIPAA

   As a recent grad I can say for my school at least that they gave us so much HIPAA training that we were paranoid about everything.

8. End of Shift Note

   Jeniele posted a topic in General Nursing

   Hey everyone, looking for some input on your end of shift note. I'm a second year nursing student and I struggle with this. Each of my clinical instructors have had different requirements for it, and of course each facility I am in has a different EM...

9. Job vs grades while in school more important?

   Jeniele replied to Mikespeese's topic in General Students

   It all depends on how rigorous your program is and how well you succeed at it. My first term in my program, our director asked a few second year students come in and answer any questions we might have about the program and share some tips. Two of t...

10. dropping human anatomy with a W

    Jeniele replied to sunshineee's topic in Pre-Nursing

    It all depends on the programs you are looking at applying to. You said you're not worried about the W, so does that mean those programs only take your highest score? All the programs around me (including the one I'm in now) use a point system and...

11. Day One and already dealing with...

    Jeniele replied to KKEGS's topic in School

    Lurker here as well, but take a look at the info on a product called Lice MD. I don't sell it, not affiliated, just a really frustrated mom that got some great advice from an awesome nurse in the ped's office. First time my daughter got lice it was...

12. Come On People, How Stupid Are You??

    Jeniele replied to CapeCodMermaid's topic in Geriatric

    Stupid question here. What about the patient's pulse? Side effect of hydralazine is tachycardia, so if the PT was tachy wouldn't that be an indication for holding the medication and considering an alternative for the hypertension? I've seen scenar...

13. Didn't do to hot on my first exam.

    Jeniele replied to NYCNative21's topic in Pre-Nursing

    So I studied about 50 hours per week for just A&P. Find out what your study style is and make your own study guides for that style. I used concept maps, made my own power point flash cards from A&P revealed, and used EZ Notescards and Quizl...

14. Nursing school schedule

    Jeniele replied to ohitsjustme's topic in Pre-Nursing

    You might find a school that's flexible but the schools around me are not. We have a set schedule, lecture on Monday and Wednesday from 8-12 followed by lab in the afternoons on those days. Clinical is on either Tuesday or Thursday, you don't get y...

15. Help. Microbiology

    Jeniele replied to hearthappiness's topic in Pre-Nursing

    My instructor provided powerpoint slides for her lecture. I recorded the lecture with the recorder app on my surface (can use phone too) and I used the comment function (under review) to add additional notes or remarks my instructor made during the ...
