1. Somagyi vs. Dawn

   Feels Like JD posted a topic in Student Assist

   Got a big ole endocrine test coming up tomorrow and as I wrap up loking over my notes I found a side on the power point that I must've missed before. When discussing Diabetes Mellitus, my text references two forms of hyperglycemia Dawn's phenomenon ...

2. Starting all over--pipe dream or possibility?

   Feels Like JD replied to DaFreak71's topic in General Students

   Apply and see what happens. If they ask during an interview why you left the first program tell them you had family issues which were resolved when you moved. Don't let "what if's" ever hold you back. EVER.

   Feels Like JD replied to justme1972's topic in General Students

   Hey hopefull, it sucks that this part of your journey seems to be over. I've had similar complaints about my instructors from time to time. It's just like any other job: Just cuz you're a great nurse doesn't necessarily make you a great teacher. I ...

4. pinning blues

   Feels Like JD replied to flightnurse2b's topic in General Students

   Sounds like a fantastic idea. I personally am not interested in going to my pinning/graduation since I've already graduated once before. But be that as it may, I've at least tried to be helpful, positive and supporting of those who are interested.

5. Need information on some good studying tips!

   Feels Like JD replied to RoyalNurse2010's topic in General Students

   I second picking up the NCLEX study guide. I also recommend picking up any of the books in the reviews and rationales series. They have helped me immensely. When I have to wade through a load of reading, I break it down into manageable sections. ...

6. Venting about classmates with families...

   Feels Like JD replied to moncj66's topic in General Students

   Not sure that can actually be quantified. It's just like assessing a patient for pain. It's what the patient says it is. And nothing else. The OP has a valid point. Just because she is single or doesn't have kids doesn't mean for a minute that sc...

10. I am OUT!!

    Feels Like JD replied to sherriberry1's topic in General Students

    hey, sorry it didn't work out. Listen, no matter what you choose to do in life there will always be obstacles. School, home, job, love everything. So even though right now it feels in vain and a big waste of time you can only allow yourself to dwe...

12. HIPAA violation?

    Feels Like JD replied to astronautswife's topic in General Students

    We actually have to cut the demographic info off of anything we leave the floor with. So the little box with the name and acct# and stuff actually gets shredd ed.

13. Are we allowed to gloat here?

    Feels Like JD replied to AZO49008's topic in General Students

    Outstanding!! it's good to hear a success story on here. If we didn't have any it would make it really difficult to be able to support those who are struggling. Celebrate the day my friend, it's yours.

14. Abnormal Lab Values

    Feels Like JD replied to Sunset87's topic in General Students

    In my class we had to get a manual to lab and diagnostic procedures from Pagana. If you have something similar it should have an explanation for both and low values.

15. electrolytes HELP!

    Feels Like JD replied to Starfish1's topic in General Students

    I highly recommend the Fluids and Elctrolytes Reviews and Rationales book. You can get it online cheap. The CD is pretty good and there are good questions with rationales in each chapter. I used it to make a decent table with the elecs I needed fo...
