2. Pressure Ulcers as a Quality Indicator?

   luffle posted a topic in Safety

   I am writing a paper on pressure ulcers because think that they are expensive and difficult to treat. Pressure ulcers also decrease the quality of life for patients and increase mortality, especially in the elderly. I was wondering if anyone's unit u...

   I haven't tried that yet. Thanks for the suggestion. I will try that. I am just worried that they might think it's weird if I contacted them for an interview.

8. online rn to bsn chamberlain college

   luffle replied to MVgal's topic in Chamberlain College

   You can get Microsoft office free sometimes if you enter your student email and your school is on the list of one of the applicable schools. I attended an ADN program and used my school email to get Microsoft office for free for four years. I would t...

9. all time anxiety with clinicals

   luffle replied to Nursingbsn2b91's topic in General Students

   It is normal to be nervous. Many students are nervous even when they've had experience in the health care setting. Since it is your first semester, they probably will not let you go off on your own without any instructions or guidance. Usually there ...

10. Study Groups or Study Alone ???

    luffle replied to Paola2319's topic in General Students

    Study groups are good if you need some motivation to set time aside to study or people to bounce concepts off but it does not replace reading. I recommend joining study groups if you have time for it and if you find yourself not focused when studying...

11. Passed the nclex-rn 2nd try with 265 questions and low kaplan scores

    luffle replied to m.RN's topic in General Students

    Congratulations. I'm glad you didn't give up. I took Kaplan too to prepare. Scores are not everything. Like you, I didn't score really high on Kaplan. I'm not sure I passed, still waiting for the results but the anxiety of taking a test is hard. I th...

12. Retaking A Course

    luffle replied to SunkissedRN2b's topic in Pre-Nursing

    You would be okay without retaking it. Some schools only takr the first passing grade also. Sociology is not a course that they weigh heavily and a B is not that bad. I would just focus on the other classes you need unless you don't need any more.

13. Alright ladies/gents I need your help!!

    luffle replied to akg713's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Fall seems pretty intense to me but it depends on how prepared you feel. Many times counselors create the SEP hoping for the best possible outcomes without making it based on each individual. I would see how spring semester goes first. Don't overwhel...

14. Biology & Chemistry

    luffle replied to StartingOver48's topic in Pre-Nursing

    It is possible to pass A&P without remembering about biology and chemistry but I would suggest pre reading the chapter before lecture so you can ask questions if you get stuck in those areas after class. As long as you keep up with the coursework...

15. Should I work part time and full time in college for my adn?

    luffle replied to sparkles24's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I wouldn't recommend it unless you can't get through college without working. Going to college for any major is already stressful and full of distractions. Most colleges will want you to get a B or better in the nursing prerequisites so stay focused ...
