1. I'm a sexless nurse

   smwilson replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

   Judging by all of the comments I've seen from you on this post, I feel confident that you are the one embarrassed and uncomfortable about the situation, not your patients. Your heart may have good intentions but you are unnecessarily sexualizing a st...

2. Advice Needed for New Grad LPN- SNF

   smwilson replied to smwilson's topic in LPN/LVN

   Thank you so much! Passing my boards feels like just the end of my first chapter in nursing, but man.. it felt like an awfully long chapter. I think that's my biggest fear- forgetting to do something important in the midst of all the tasks to do for...

   smwilson replied to pthomas89's topic in NCLEX

   I'm not sure about whether the test day counts (although based on what I've seen from classmates, it does), but I do have a friend who took her exam a couple of Saturdays ago and couldn't access her quick results until Tuesday.. That was without her ...

   smwilson replied to pthomas89's topic in NCLEX

   I just took my PN exam on Tuesday and had the same pop-up for over 24 hours. It was so nerve wracking. But I did pass! I found out a day after my classmates that took it the same time as me. I have read that any little hold up will cause them to put...

8. Advice Needed for New Grad LPN- SNF

   smwilson replied to smwilson's topic in LPN/LVN

   You have no idea how helpful that is for me. I can't function without having things tasked and prioritized, but I really hadn't thought of a way to do it that would make sense for me. I could only think of going by what was needed per patient, and it...

   Hi all, this is my first post on the site so I apologize in advance if this has been discussed already. I am a new grad LPN (graduated in December, notified that I passed boards yesterday) and I found out last night that I am going to begin orientati...
