1. Nursing student asks nurses the question..

   Zombiologist replied to 2bNurseDR.T's topic in General Nursing

   Great. My charge nurse gives me students over the nurses that hate nursing students because I will teach them a little bit. But guess what. The CI that pops in and says you ok every four hours is still more responsible for the students' learning tha...

2. Nursing student asks nurses the question..

   Zombiologist replied to 2bNurseDR.T's topic in General Nursing

   Dear ns responding. Still not the staff nurses job to teach you. It's your schools responsibility. I graduated less than 3 years ago. I passed all meds with my instructor. My teacher would find out things that were happening on the unit like dressi...

3. Nursing student asks nurses the question..

   Zombiologist replied to 2bNurseDR.T's topic in General Nursing

   I have read most of the replies on this thread. And we also had this conversation a work with a student nurse who is working on our unit for the summer. The student asked why it appeared that nurses did not like to teach. The other nurse in the room...

4. I want to complete the RN to BSN program in 1 term

   Zombiologist replied to nightflower's topic in Western Governors

   I did not have to pass the pa's by more than 10 points. In fact I did not even pass the pa for stats. Just pass and move on. We all get Bs.

5. Have GAD and Panic Disorder and am being told nursing isn't for me

   Zombiologist replied to krysteeen's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Speaking from the field. Nursing is just not about holding grannies hand. It's about dealing with over demanding families. Patients that should be in mental hospitals but cannot get placement so you have to care for them. Plus dealing unrelenting dem...

6. Do all RN to BSN programs have discussion questions?

   Zombiologist replied to perfexion's topic in ADN/BSN

   You can schedule the phone calls around your life. My calls with my my mentor literally took 3 minutes a week. By the end of my term (did it all in one 6 month term) had one call every other week. Loved wgu. So much better for me than discussion post...

9. Public Schools and transgender bathrooms.

   Zombiologist replied to imintrouble's topic in School

   I have been exposed to transgender. As we all have. And just did not know. And the male with the bat was a predicator. No bathroom law enabled him to be there or not.

    Zombiologist replied to imintrouble's topic in School

    Thank you Mr. Outside of this school environment trans people have been using the bathroom that matches their outsides for years. Would you want your daughter to share a bathroom room with 'her'? [ATTACH]22078[/ATTACH]

11. I want to complete the RN to BSN program in 1 term

    Zombiologist replied to nightflower's topic in Western Governors

    I graduated in January. And I took one term. I think it really depends on your mentor. My mentor opened any thing I asked and did not have me pass the pa's by over 10 points. She just opened them when I said I was ready. If your mentor is holding yo...

12. How is nursing school?

    Zombiologist replied to RN to be soon's topic in Pre-Nursing

    It's different. I went to ns with the attitude that I am a smart person that already had a Bachelors degree. How hard can it be? I was humbled in the first semester. Between labs and clinicals and classes. It's just different. Just go in with an o...

13. Rude & Snarky Staff

    Zombiologist replied to TEXASWAG's topic in Educators

    This. Thank you. This is what my instructors did. I rarely saw the staff nurse and I did not bug her unless to tell her what we had done with the patient. But when students come to my floor the instructors just sit while we the staff nurses are exp...
