    moonischasingme1 replied to Freshman RN's topic in General Nursing

    moonischasingme1 replied to nohika's topic in General Nursing

    haha that is so funny! I've been on tele for one year now too and when I tell people that I will soon be starting in the ICU, they almost always think it means trauma. So, they mention things like,...

  10. New Nurse-Bad Bad Day

    moonischasingme1 replied to mjmiller525's topic in General Nursing

  11. New Nurse-Bad Bad Day

    moonischasingme1 replied to mjmiller525's topic in General Nursing

    I think that your preceptor should have freakin' helped you when she saw you struggling, especially if a patient isn't being turned, etc. Did you ask her for help at all? I know it can be hard...

    moonischasingme1 posted a topic in General Nursing

  14. Dilemma: night shift...critical care

    moonischasingme1 replied to moonischasingme1's topic in General Nursing

    I dont ever say those things about night nurses and I don't appreciate the fact that you would imply I would. I don't imply anything about the night shift and their habits, I only know how I operate...

  15. Dilemma: night shift...critical care

    moonischasingme1 replied to moonischasingme1's topic in General Nursing

    That is what I figured too, if I didn't take it (if I get it) then I would probably regret and always wonder what if. However, once I am in the program I have to give them a year or pay back money....

    moonischasingme1 replied to HURN's topic in General Nursing

    Hey, I just took ACLS on Friday. Definitely obviously get the book and do the pre-assessment exam. Then go through the book and memorize (understand) all of the algorithms. The course wasn't as scary...

    moonischasingme1 replied to SoundofMusic's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

  23. My God, these family members!!

    moonischasingme1 replied to SoundofMusic's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I feel you. For the most part, I just smile and fetch whatever it is that someone wants (cups, juice, crackers, blankets), but then sometimes it is so ridiculous. For instance, I bring a family member...

  25. How do you feel when you pass/fail Nclex/Hesi/ATI?

    moonischasingme1 replied to KAYBDT6's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Passing the NCLEX was probably one of the greatest feelings of accomplishment in my life. It was also a huge feeling of relief. I don't think words could truly describe it when I found out I passed. I...
