    What is your "thing" and how do you deal with it?

    Lynker replied to Robin Verde's topic in General Nursing

    Wal-mart feet, I'm so done ? I've found that nothing in particular bothers

    "I've never done this before"

    Lynker replied to Lynker's topic in General Nursing

    I plan on instilling confidence by having other nurses do things with me, so I can see what I'm doing right and

    I made a mistake and I am terrified to go back to work

    Lynker replied to DH1234's topic in General Nursing

    I haven't started working as a nurse yet, so coming from an also new nurse it seems like a simple mistake. Things happen. I wouldn't beat down on yourself so much. Learn and grow from it. You're not...

    Is being an LPN REALLY that bad?

    Lynker replied to peppapig123's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Working as an LPN just made more sense in my "story". I missed one grade, leaving me out of the RN program. But I saw I could get into the LPN program, so I figured why not? My program was a killer 10...

    LVN JOB ( no experience how do i get hired)

    Lynker replied to nursenomeds1's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I got a call back from my clinical site as a full-time LTC overnight nurse. Maybe check with your clinical facilities and see if they'll take you? Maybe I just got lucky, I don't

    I fail Teas twice, what should I do now..

    Lynker replied to Momona's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think you failing the TEAS twice will affect other schools. I'm not 100% certain,

    Oh. ? You can always find another community college to try at, once you finish your classes and

    I fail Teas twice, what should I do now..

    Lynker replied to Momona's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why don't you go to a community college? They have LPN programs where you don't need such high scores on the TEAS. I went for my LPN at a community college, even though my scores were above the RN...

    I fail Teas twice, what should I do now..

    Lynker replied to Momona's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm pretty sure each section has set amounts of time though, so you don't need to worry about running out of time. I would wait until you finish A&P 1 to retake the TEAS. I took mine after A&P...

    Lynker replied to newnurselearningtheropes's topic in General Nursing

    I'm still looking for recommendations as well, as a new nurse.

    Do you hate nursing?

    Graduated 3 years ago, now I’m considering taking the NCLEX

    Lynker replied to reyesmegan1's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Definitely agreed with Nurse Kelsey, I used UWorld every single day and did around 100 questions a day. Shockingly, you learn a lot even if you get most of them wrong (Like I did

    What's something you never expected as a male nurse?

    Lynker replied to Darth Practicus's topic in Men in Nursing

    Haven't worked as a nurse yet, but I got hit on a lot as a CNA. Butt pinched, called sexy, all of it. lol. Loved my crazy residents. I also got a lot of good remarks when I told patient families I was...

    I think studying your nursing notes from school would definitely help get your mind running again. I used UWorld and passed on my first try. You can do this!! Never give
