   Also, celebrate your small wins! I'm also a new grad and was thrilled on Monday when I could stop a pt's IV, unhook said pt from it, put the pump on standby, and then re-hook him up and start back the...

6. Licensing question

   RoundAbout33 replied to dinah77's topic in Texas Nursing

   I don't think MN participates in nursys verification. They're not a compact state either. I just looked on mine and it said MN wasn't a part of it, so, yes, they would need you to have the MN BON send...

14. Program Advice

    RoundAbout33 replied to Dhooy7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you can afford it, I would say go with the accelerated program. Of course this is very individual, and you know yourself best, but if you are ready to be a nurse, go the fastest, quality route. I...

    I'm actually completing a Lippincott Peds one right now. If you must pass on the first try, I would encourage you to do the suggested readings first (if you have the book). If you have multiple...
