   ichiro12 replied to ichiro12's topic in General Nursing

   Thank you. I read that alot on these forums where new nurses aren't giving it a chance. You are right. I will stick it out. It's been getting better but I've also been getting more patient load as orientation progresses which can explain why I don't ...

   I am currently in orientation and my educator and my preceptor stated two different things. I was told by the educator that if a PRN medication Trazodone (tx insomnia) is given before bed instead of PRN Tramadol (opioid pain med the pt actually aske...

6. Just earned my RN but I can't work for another year due to deployment. Advice?

   ichiro12 replied to ichiro12's topic in General Nursing

   That sounds like a great idea and I hope to continue my education online RN-BSN as well. One of my courses is a practicum and I sure hope your idea is something I am able to do. At this point, it seems that's the only choice I have. Thank you for a q...

14. Hurst/LaCharity/NCSBN Scores???

    ichiro12 replied to ichiro12's topic in NCLEX

    I think with LaCharity, I got too burnt out. I spent pretty much this week doing 300+ questions per day and reading the rationale. You think I'm overdoing it? It appears according to my scores, they are decreasing so maybe I need to take a day off? N...
