  1. No She/he Did Not!!!

    Biol20fan replied to Maggie in NC's topic in General Students

    No they didn't... make fun of the patient for how he got his injury while they thought he was asleep! Um, he wasn't...and he told us all about

  2. Don't feel ready!

    Biol20fan replied to Lindalou76's topic in General Students

    First of all, take a deep breath...and then realize that at one point or another, we have all been in the same boat! Skills lab is nothing at all like working on a real patient. And the good thing...

  3. You know you're a nursing student when...

    Biol20fan replied to Megsd's topic in General Students

    ...you are the only one in your family that finds it amusing that on clinical days, you use Secret Clinical Strength antiperspirant/deodorant. ...you find yourself putting meaning to the letters in...

  4. Knees hurt after a day of clinical!

    Biol20fan replied to NICUplease's topic in General Students

    Amen to that! Good shoes and comfy socks are the way to go. Also, if you can't afford to get a really good pair of shoes, at least get yourself some good shoe insoles (can't think of the right word,...

  5. My fiance doesn't understand!!

    Biol20fan replied to Nurseandwife's topic in General Students

    Even the most understanding of spouses (of which I have one; I'm a lucky girl) will not fully understand what you are going though in NS (unless, of course, they have done it themselves). I agree with...

  6. Can you guys please help? So sick of this...

    Biol20fan replied to yuyu75's topic in General Students

    That's just what I feel in my heart. I wanted to respond to you the way I would have responded to myself. There have been sooooo many struggles along the way. I'm still going through a ton....

  7. Can you guys please help? So sick of this...

    Biol20fan replied to yuyu75's topic in General Students

    yuyu75, I'm glad you decided to post here because you sound a lot like me! I am 32, nearing the end of my first year of NS, and before I started back to school I was a stay-at-home (my boys are now 6...

  8. Pathophysiology??

    Biol20fan replied to RNnTrainin''s topic in General Students

    Daytonite is always a great resource when it comes to care plans. She's helped me more than once, even when it hasn't been one of my

  10. Pathophysiology??

    Biol20fan replied to RNnTrainin''s topic in General Students

  11. Can you help me with a test question?...

    Biol20fan replied to flbeau's topic in General Students

    I can see where you're confused, but this is the way I'm looking at it. You could speak in a calm tone to avoid anxiety, but what exactly would you be talking about? "Mr. Jones, what kind of cheese...

  12. No She/he Did Not!!!

    Biol20fan replied to Maggie in NC's topic in General Students

    No she did not... ask me if I was pregnant, too, while we were assisting in a vag delivery today! No, I'm not pregnant. Haven't been for over four years. :no::no: This was a brand new LVN who asked...

  13. Help with Care Plans

    Biol20fan replied to rn/writer's topic in General Students

    Daytonite - I wanted to let you know I received full points for my care plan that you helped me with (I needed a nursing dx for a healthy newborn). Thank you again for all of your

  14. Infuriating Responses To Questions

    Biol20fan replied to ADPIE10's topic in General Students

    I totally agree. My current clinical instructor is great; she won't lead you to the answer, but instead she'll get you there via your critical thinking. I really appreciate that. What I don't like,...

  15. What's the best gift from a patient?

    Biol20fan replied to Tolle_lege's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm in my L&D clinical rotation in school, and yesterday I was helping with a G1, P0 mom. She was in a lot of pain (they couldn't get an epidural in her, although they tried and tried), young,...

  16. Do you know the right answer?

    Biol20fan replied to KarynicaRN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know...maybe find that pt's nurse and tell them to check on their pt? I'm going to be wracking my brain all day on this

  17. Things Patients Have Taught Me NOT To Do

    Biol20fan replied to Trixxy's topic in Nursing Humor

    I bet you're glad he's an ex!!!

  18. Need some prayers....

    Biol20fan replied to locolorenzo22's topic in General Nursing

    My sympathies to your friend and her

  19. Online nursing education

    Biol20fan replied to ANGIERPR's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry, I can't help you much on that, either. The only advice I can give you is to consider how far you want to go in your degree. If you choose to go on past Univ. of Phx or Kaplan (I don't know...

  21. Help with Care Plans

    Biol20fan replied to rn/writer's topic in General Students

    So far I haven't had much trouble w/ care plans and I've always done relatively well on them. This one, though, I'm having a bit of trouble coming up w/ a dx for a pt. We have just started our OB...

  22. Pre-Nursing student.Unsure

    Biol20fan replied to becky5438's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree with doeRAYmee. NS is tough, and at times you may not feel like you can make it. But as long as you take it one day at a time, you should be okay. To me, it's also been a big difference in...

  23. drug compuatation specially in i.v

    Biol20fan replied to darren_callcareer18's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Find out how many mls you need to administer, and then also how many hours you have to administer that total amount. For example: You have 1000 ml of Kool-Aid, to administer over 10 hours. The drip...

  24. Things Patients Have Taught Me NOT To Do

    Biol20fan replied to Trixxy's topic in Nursing Humor
