mixed resp/metabolic acidosis. Also called combined. So basically bad compensation. Anion gap should really be done. As well as other labs to help narrow things down with H&P to help too. SarahRN ABG's on YouTube is helpful and educational!

My friend failed the NCLEX-RN twice and she ended up hiring a tutor. I told her it was dumb but this lady was awesome she helped 4 pass the NCLEX that I know personally. 3 for NCLEX-RN and one for the pn. She actually did Google meet and zoom and did a money-back guarantee bill of sale I guess. I was going to message sooner when I saw this but I didn't know any contact info for her but the email tarah (my friend) gave me was [email protected]. Let us know how it goes, I wish you lots of luck!

This is a doozy! Some questions I have... Why would you attend a nursing program so far away and is there one closer? Have you checked to see if this school is accredited? Were you physically attending this college and had covid symptoms so you had to miss classes, and they kicked you out for attendance? Because even with covid symptoms, online can be done to an extent. Did you test positive for covid? I would make sure you are double-checking for accreditation on any nursing program. A lot of the time nursing students want to bring up the handbook to try and show the school is at fault, however, the handbooks I've read regarding a few nursing programs state, "handbook is subject to change at the discretion of instructors and or director.?" It sounds like you might've dodged a bullet though, and do not give up on your goal to become a nurse!

Did you find out if you passed? I did mine several times and I kept getting the good pop up. I am not sure if the PVT is legitimate but it seems like it is for the good pop up. There are those who have received the bad pop up and still passed.

I'm guessing you're in Illinois, as continental seems to only be discussed for Illinois nursing students but I could be wrong. Most states, regulation of nursing is their "NRB" but Illinois it's actually continental testing services that approves everything and sends the 'OK' to the illinois department of professional regulation, which they send the 'OK' to pearsonVUE to send the ATT's. Which is crazy to me but whatever. I know with a conviction such as a DUI you have steps to go through and I am hoping you came out of it all good. People make mistakes. I am sure more people have drove under the influence than they would like to admit but you just got caught.

Wife: Deficient knowledge RT sleep deprivation, social isolation, high caffeine intake, AEB elevated heart rate and increased respiratory pattern when seeing "SATA." Husband: Risk of being single RT lack of knowledge regarding NCLEX style questions AEB him stating, "It can't be that hard."

Reading this late but in this day and age, weed is more potent. One hit can definitely debilitate you. I see it all the time in the ED. It raises kids HR's and BP and they basically start having panic attacks. I would say to watch your drinks closer and choose not to smoke anything.

I had to do an appeal and won mine but that was a few years ago. I ended up transferring after the DON was asked to resign later that year. I went back and forth on thinking I was wrong and that it would come back to me and the other students that won the appeal, and that we would be targeted. We weren't targeted but blaming the teachers isn't wise. When you write an appeal it should NEVER be about what the instructors are doing wrong but what hardships you had individually, and what your plans will be to improve in the future. Last semester I took psych, maternal newborn, algebra, composition 2, logic and critical thinking, then a 3 week statistics after the algebra. One morning on the way to my psych clinical I got a call at 5 am that my dad was being flown to a hospital from another hospital due to a ruptured triple A. He had a 9.7 x 7.9 aneurysm and made it 18 days in the hospital. We took him home and he passed the day after my birthday. All while attending school. I also was going through health issues, nothing severe but enough to complicate everything further. I ended up having a lupus flare and I am on strong pain medications which are hard to get because so many people have abused them. All this happened while I was taking psych which I passed and transitioning to maternal health. Maternal health was the hardest by far---I passed every one of my classes going through all of it and I don't know how. So what I am saying is it's probably not all the instructors to blame. Even if so many students failed there will still be some that has passed and that is what is looked at. Even if there are 30 students and half fail it doesn't matter. The best thing to do is to look within and realize that things won't just be handed to you. Nursing school is rough and if you really want it you will be able to do it!

I heard essential oils can protect you. Just bring them to your school and they'll get it. Get with the program and watch Balto!

Humans make mistakes and just because we are nursing students, it doesn't make us perfect. Tardiness happens, although coming to class drunk and smoking in a hospital is ridiculous, I hope they learned their lessons. I just don't get how someone can think they can smoke in a hospital. ?!? It's like they didn't have a brain that day.

I took micro, speech, and sociology online during a summer. It was a lot of info but it can be done!

Just for clarification "take home quizzes" or homework, and you use a book or the internet isn't cheating. Teachers aren't dumb they know students will look up the answers...it's up to the student to comprehend the material and if by chance they graduate and pass the NCLEX then good for them. I don't pay attention to enough people while I'm in class to know if they cheat or not and nor do I really care if they do, they're the ones risking getting into trouble. I have a small class size and they're actually all great. If I saw one of them cheating I wouldn't report it I'd probably just say something to them just to let them know I saw them, I'm not about ruining anyone's life. All of our tests are on the computer and if you click out or open another browser the test shuts off and you're screwed, also we can't wear our smart watches so our class couldn't cheat unless they wrote answers somewhere a teacher couldn't see. Your teacher might not really care or they might be doing something in secret. It seems people care more about people getting into trouble than doing what is right though. Human nature.

You probably need to get a criminal attorney now. I hope things work out for you because that's just crazy to me

Two people should NOT be lifting or moving 400 lbs, whether it be a person or thing. I would watch what you say in ear shot of patients because I'm sure it would offend anyone hearing that even if they know they're heavy. You should've stood your ground with the lpn or gone to the Rn if nothing was done. I understand you want to be friends with people but it's dangerous to move someone who is that big. My back hurts constantly from lifting and I'm only 30. I wouldn't be too concerned if I were you, you have a certification not a license. And I do not think the abuse will be founded especially if you discuss with the facility, not allowing you proper staff, and risking your health.

That's not true. The attorney can talk for you. So you don't further criminalize yourself. If you have all the classes for that BSN it's most likely you have all the classes for an ADN program. You might just have to apply to a different nursing program(associates degree) get your transcripts now so you have them in your hands. Your official transcripts for when you apply to a different school. I would do it just for safety. If the hearing decides to push the issue then u could be barred from that nursing program and any school that would try to get your transcripts they could tell them what you did. So get your transcripts in your hand. Talk to the school lawyer, if you feel he/she isn't listening then you need to talk to an actual attorney because Maryland law does say it's a criminal act even when Its handled by the college, and you need to be diligent In finding out as much info as possible. Don't procrastinate on this. Get your affairs in order. Find other housing possibilities and if you have to take drug classes on your own.
