Hi, you are certianly not too old. As long as you are strong willed to do it, nursing is for all. What I can tell you is that if I have a BA, I won't even try to go thru the ADN route. I'll try accelerated programs. This would depend on you largely. ...

Hebrews 13:5 replied to LoserLeena's topic in Student Assist
I don't think you are a loser Leena. Having passed through the "hard horizon" of nursing school, i bet you can also scale thru that hesi. Don't call yourself a loser. We were all scared by this hesi but i tell you, a lot of people couldn't pass hes...

I wouldn't ask for a new preceptor at this time.JMHO. Since you have only two weeks left. Request that you actually take the full load of patients or atleast ask for 4 of her patients (if she has 5) or 3 if she has 4 patients. And talk to her about ...

I have an LVN like that in my place of work. They are 4 of them and the other three are "good" so to say, but there is just this lady that is so very jealous. In fact she asked me to take her discharged patient down to the car park and I looked at he...
Hebrews 13:5 replied to geekgolightly's topic in HESI
Kaplan is entirely different from Hesi in terms of how the questions are worded and also the format. Kaplan prepares you for Nclex and is designed for those who have completed the nursing program. Except you study ahead, there are quite a few topics ...

...I had a similar experience, but it was from an LVN. She asked me to take her patient down to the car park(on wheel chair), 'cause the other "tech's were busy." They want to intimidate you by all means.... Even though I'm new, (just about two and h...
Hebrews 13:5 replied to exairex's topic in New Nurse
Hi, sorry for all these things going on....I would try and find out from the manager/preceptor (whoever you feel more comfortable with) about what they think you should do. You are actually asking for the outcome of the meeting but in a different way...

Glad to hear that! Even as you are charting the charge nurse or the supervisor is hovering around! It makes me very uncomfortable that I sometimes drop something accidentally...LOL...Woo! I have a very good preceptor. After the first 2 weeks, he just...
Woo! how the secretary and the charge nurse just watch my every move?? Do you all notice that in your various new jobs? Even my preceptor doesn't watch me that way! He has evaluated me so well during the past few weeks. Once i come out from the pt r...

Just chin up and stay there while actively working towards another one that you would love. Take your time and really look close before you leap. Put in every effort you got in this one and learn as much skills as you can. Al the best!
Don't worry yourself about "select all tha applies" I had 75 questions and didn't get any of those. I had lots of priority,though. Even if you get them, think thru them the way you would normally eliminate and choose the best answer if given only 4 o...
Don't get me wrong, I don't go there either. I was just answering your question why you weren't sure how such a software would be free. I don't care whether it's free or not afterall i passed my nclex already.

I had an option of 7a-7p versus night or weekend only and i chose 7a-7p. I'm glad i did because I'm enjoying it! I'm not a night person. I like my sleep! Hats off to those who do it! some are just so used to it. You have to really like it to be able ...
