I agree. I think it gets easier. I am in my final semester and I love how everything is coming together. I also agree that it helps so much to understand why you are doing what you are doing. Or why...

I have clinicals Thursday and Friday from 6:30-3:00. I wish it were longer. I always feel stressed to get my charting done. We are in the our last semester so we are pretty much on our own with the...

I am not sure how we can help. All I can say is a job is a job. You may even get the hours you need. You have waited a year for the position finally got it just not the hours you wanted. It sounds...

Hate is a strong word but here are a few things I dislike about a few of my instructors: -one was just mean she refused to review a test because "you got what you got and I am not changing...

I put mine in my pocket. Something about it getting all close and personal with a pt then being around my neck (even after I wipe it) creeps me out. Also being in my pocket makes for a nice ice...

If you could please look at my resume. I really stink at making resumes. Plus right now I do not have the money to invest in resume writing course. I am trying to get everything lined up and ready...

I am in the same shoes as you. I have experience mostly in customer service but have not had a job other than LPN for 3mths because I have been a stay at home mom for the past 11 years. I am...

I see what you are saying. I however will be a new grad "again" in May. I really really do not want to go back to LTC. I respect what nurses working in LTC do but I see nothing wrong with me (or...
