    OB nursing is not my thing

    Multicollinearity replied to Jw1724's topic in General Students

    Well, I think we should all be permitted a rotation that we just don't like or get into much without feeling like crud. For me, I suspect that will be peds or OB. Honestly, I'll probably go through...

    Carrying all that stuff to clinicals . . .

    Multicollinearity replied to intensity_too's topic in General Students

    I buy scrub pants with plenty of deep pockets. That's where I put my scissors, penlight, pen, alcohol wipes, and car keys. All I carry is my clipboard and drug book. I just set the drug book down...

    Study Groups Necessary???

    Multicollinearity replied to Curious1alwys's topic in General Students

    I've never been in a study group. So far, I have a 4.0 in nursing school. I learn best studying on my own. On two occasions, I have gotten together with classmates on the verge of failing out....

    How do they get people with contractures in a casket?

    Multicollinearity replied to NurseyPoo7's topic in General Nursing

    Speaking of the deceased and braking bones...do you all want me to talk about how cremated remains end up powdery and can fit into an urn? Hint, the remains come out of the retort (hot cremation...

    Which MCCCD ADN Waitlist

    Multicollinearity posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'll be applying in about two-three months. I live in Tucson. I'm just not familiar with the community colleges or even their locations. (Ok, so I know Scottsdale is north LOL). I know it's hard to...

    Paper charting assessment in isolation room

    Multicollinearity posted a topic in General Students

    Recently, I had a patient in an isolation room on contact precautions due to MRSA. So I could not bring my clipboard and assessment forms into the patient's room. We don't have computer charting in...

    My mom just passed away....

    Multicollinearity replied to Kitty Hawk's topic in General Students

    I am so sorry for your loss. You need to take care of yourself right now. I have to think if your instructors knew your mother just passed away - they would give you extensions on those assignments....

    Stool sample for Micro class?????

    Multicollinearity replied to RXtech's topic in General Students

    OK, I'd have a problem with my classmates seeing the shape, color, and form of my product of defecation. That's private. It's different in the hospital setting when we see patients' poo because we...

    Stool sample for Micro class?????

    Multicollinearity replied to RXtech's topic in General Students

    I don't know why, but I assumed that the students were to bring in an itsy bitsy tiny smear on some culture media. If the students had to bring in a bulk sample - ugh. Then I take back what I said...

    Stool sample for Micro class?????

    Multicollinearity replied to RXtech's topic in General Students

    I'm sure as a pre-nursing student, I would have been horrified by this. Now, as a nursing student, I've seen and cleaned up so much poop, etc, I don't really care about an itsy-bitsy sample for micro...

    What makes NS so hard?

    Multicollinearity replied to JillFRN's topic in General Students

    For me the hard part of nursing school is the clinicals. I know I'll do a good job clinically after I graduate. It's being watched and judged by the clinical instructors that *wigs* me out. It's...

    WHY do we need more nurses

    Multicollinearity replied to getinfall's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. This has been my experience in clinicals as well. I was a bit uneasy about how I'd be treated by nurses going into my clinicals - just from reading the horror stories on this board. I'm...

    Do you have to carry all your books??

    Multicollinearity replied to newbie08's topic in General Students

    I brought my textbooks to campus one day - the first day of nursing school. Never again. If I'm reading out of the textbooks, it's at home. Otherwise, I'm studying off of my notes and...

    What is your stress relief during nursing school?

    Multicollinearity replied to mzjennx's topic in General Students

    Yes. You know you are a nursing student when you use phrases like "as evidenced by" in conversation. Stress relief for me...aerobic exercise and weight lifting in the AM and yoga in the

    Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Multicollinearity replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Steph, I admire your adamant intent to pay for your own medical expenses. I know what you mean, about negotiating, and cash discounts, too. I do the same with my $5000 deductible health insurance...

    Anything else I can do with a BSN without starting out in the hospital first?

    Multicollinearity replied to Rainbowbright77's topic in General Nursing

    This will vary by area and job market, but you may be able to work as a public health nurse. I know the health dep't in my county welcomes new grads with BSNs. I still wonder, though, how well a...

    Do You Want Universal Healthcare?

    Multicollinearity replied to DanFNP's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    That's if you are fortunate enough to have insurance. If you do not have insurance coverage and cannot qualify for medicaid (government coverage for the very poor), then you have to pay for all of...
