  1. ER vs. Telemetry.. need help

    I went to the ED after five months on the CDU. Those five months were a wonderful learning experience. With that being said, I think you will be fine going to the ED. However, you have to have a passion for emergency medicine in order to survive ther...
  2. 7/11 test takers...

    It's only been a few hours and my nerves are getting the best of me! How is everyone else?
  3. One year anniversary!

    My one year anniversary has come and past now. I've been a nurse for one year and I can't even comprehend how much I have learned and grown. I work in at a busy Adult Emergency Dept. that has over 100,000 visits per year. I've experienced so much and...
  4. Anyone wear the Masai Barefoot Technology shoes?

    I've been wearing MBT's for about six months. I love them! They are a bit heavy but my legs and back have been almost pain free since I started wearing them. No shoe is perfect but these are the best I've found.
  5. Are all floor nurses rude to ER nurses?

    I just don't get it. When I call the floor, I got out of my way to be friendly, courteous and treat the unit secretary and the receiving RN the way I would want to be treated. When I get to the floor, I greet, smile and ask how their night is going...
  6. Does anyone wear MBT shoes?

    I have MBT's. I love them! No more leg pain, lower back pain or burning feet. I've worn Nike's, Danskos, Crocs, Merrels and several different orthotics. MBT's surpass them all in quality and comfort. Zappos has some of their new styles. Mine l...
  7. ASN to BSN online program

    Hi there, Please tell me your experiences with online ASN to BSN programs. I'm considering doing an online program but don't know many that have gone this route. Thanks!
  8. Did anyone read the People story about Christina Aguilera?

    I don't think you're giving me a hard time...no worries here. My point was that we really don't know fact from fiction when it comes to celebrities and the media. My other point was, over the last year, she's been out of the limelight besides "baby...
  9. ASN to BSN online program

    LOL! I just realized my post was moved to this forum. I didn't even realize this forum was here! Looks to be lots of threads on the subject...time to search and read! Thanks!
  10. Did anyone read the People story about Christina Aguilera?

    Good point. What a celebrity tells the media may not be the actual story. Besides, she just gave us something to talk about...sounds like she put herself back in the public eye without drinking, doing drugs or putting herself and/or baby at harm, ...
  11. Passing with 265 questions???

    I passed with 265 on the first try. I tried to look at every question as an opportunity to prove myself. It totally sucked though. Stay positive!
  12. We need to lift eachother up!

    During school, I would see instructors tear students down and classmates gossip behind ones back. It was a rare occasion my classmates would actually support eachothers endeavors. Even here on allnurses, I remember when I first started school and was...
  13. Is It Wrong to Look at Your Own Medical Info?

    My hospital has a zero tolerance policy regarding medical records, even if it is yours. They terminate immediately, no questions asked.
  14. From graduation to test day was 6 weeks. I did between 100 and 150 questions daily with weekends off. Good luck to you!
  15. I used Kaplan exculsively. I chose one review program and made that my primary focus. I skipped the NCLEX review at school because I didn't want to muddy my thinking with any other methodology. I passed the first time and I thank Kaplan for that!

    They arrived today...starting with level 1. Wish me luck!

  18. Are You Gel'n
