I am a new nurses and have been on this site many times with many, many, many questions! And all feedback has been great, information, and educational!
One example: I was just coming off orientation and my confidence was very shakey! Can I be a nurse without my preceptor? Will I make the right nursing judgement calls for my patient? etc...I read others stories on this site and I realized that I was not alone! I'm happy this site is here so I can relate with others when I've had a long day.
All nurses has helped me out so much that I dont even know where to being. While in nursing school I went on All nurses for advices and learning tips and it has helped me out tremendously. I found all nurses towards my 2 to last semester of nursing school. Many times I think to myself only if I found it sooner in nursing school. But its okay. Their's a reason to everything. All I know I am truly grateful for all nurses!!!!!
I finally graduated from nursing school and successfully pass my NCLEX. I agree with 2 Nurture1: " I even recall while taking NCLEX, and referring back to the infection control mneumonic (My Chicken Hez TB) I also use this mnemonic along with SSSPIDERMMMAN and DIPSS.
Also, during my last semester of med surg I was unclear of a disease, I typed it on the search box in all nurses and one of the links a member mention flashcards, so I looked farther into this and let me tell you my mouth dropped. Every topic there was flashcards to help you memorize topics from med surg, pedi, etc.....
AGAIN ALL NURSES IS GREAT!! I Can go on and on how it has help me. Now can All Nurses help me find a nursing job or a nurse residency.........
To pass the time and at the same time, learn something, AN is there.
Learned a lot from other nurses' tips esp those that they don't teach in school.
That the feelings, pleasant or not, I have being a nurse is far more common than I thought...the compassion for the sick, the frustration of the healthcare system, the camaraderie of the co-workers, etc, etc
Many good advices here in AN. I guess, it takes a nurse to understand a nurse.
I love AN!:loveya: and thank you so much for creating this website.
