2. Compression socks

   xojamieox replied to shenanigans_RN's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I wear the calf sleeves on a daily basis (and so do a few other nurses on my unit), I like them better than the full socks I was wearing before. Mine don't slip at all, but like was mentioned before, it could be a size issue. They definitely make ...

   xojamieox replied to xojamieox's topic in NCLEX

   I dont know how to feel either! I just feel like if the last question seemed so easy then I had to be below the bar..... Good to know it might be earlier than 48 hrs.

    xojamieox replied to JustBeachyNurse's topic in NCLEX

11. Kaplan Videos

    xojamieox replied to ANelson732's topic in NCLEX

    I am currently using Kaplan to prepare also. It was part of our last semester for school, so we were required to use it. I watched the videos and followed along in the book also. In most of the videos, there is a slide that shows "Need to Know" in...

    We do not hide our tattoos during interviews because WE see them as unprofessional, but because the people interviewing us see them that way and judge us accordingly. Just because I have a half sleeve on one arm, a wrist tattoo on the other, two fi...

    xojamieox replied to KBRN1971's topic in General Nursing

    I am curious about the answer too, I just started taking phetermine 3 days ago and had 2 interviews (hoping an offer follows!). I have searched extensively on the internet and some sites say it shows up as false positive for amphetamines and others ...
