Morphine, lasix and protonix. I want 10 prefilled syringes of morphine at the beginning of the day! And, they will surely be gone by noon.

I just took the NCLEX and it cut me off at 75. I really hope I passed. does anyone know if it is more common to fail in 75???

well, I was just wondering since it is in a required declaratory order for the BNE application/licensure. I am not trying to rub anyone the wrong way.

no way! you can't even afford the insurance! I'd rather keep my cush desk job at $15 without the backaches and hurting feet!

This might seem stupid or overly explanatory, but it took me a year to figure it out. Focus on the Nursing Interventions for particular diseases/procedures. I spent SO much time trying to memorize the pathophysiology, and kept noticing that the quest...

Thank you so much for that clarification!

wow, I had no idea. It was one of the prescreening parts of the ADN program. There is also a spot in the BNE website for renewal purposes that says: "...other renewal questions asks "In the past 5 years, have you been diagnosed with or treated or ho...

It was my understanding that nurses with mental illness or a history of mental illness were not allowed to practice. Short term depression was evaluated. Can someone clarify this for me? Personally, I would rather a nurse have it diagnosed and be tak...

I hope its 2007. The way psych and peds are going this semester, you never know! I can't wait till Dec.

What do you call an RN with her ADN? A: an RN What do you call an RN with her BSN? A: an RN What do you call an RN who passed her NCLEX? The same NCLEX that both groups took? A: an RN BSNs may go to school longer, but ADNs have to work harder to get ...

I think it is silly for everyone to have to start on a med surg floor. It is great for some people and a nightmare for others. Personally, it's not for me. Now, this isn't saying I am above it or that I would be neglectful to patients. But I sure wou...

I'm the middle child, second girl. ETOH dad could be applied.

That's what I thought. Thanks for the clarification. I suppose I will just continue with it until I finish my class.

Seriously do not let the math frighten you! If you can solve ratios, you can solve about 95% of RN school math. Go for it!

I'm too tired to answer this thread. Why? Because I am a nursing student who just finished an ethics paper, a group presentation, clinical at the cancer center with aching feet and back, Then took a test today, have another test tomorrow, my student ...

I'm thinking the nurse who said to behave like the 7 cm woman is NOT a good nurse. Everyone experiences pain differently. She would have been better by shutting her mouth and giving the 2 cm woman some meds.

I don't work in OB... but personally, with my daughter, 0730: started IV, hung pitocin, 0800- anesthesiologist came in to start my epidural. Felt no pain until the epidural was dc'd. It was wonderful. The extent of my labor pains was "pressure" Pushe...

I just transferred too. It's one of the biggest hassles I have ever endured. Just make sure you have all transcripts. I am not moving again until I graduate this time! Even if I have to stay behind by myself while my family moves!

Well, I had 2 different teachers explain it both ways. No student input. I wrote it to coincide with my current prof. but I just can't replace it without knowing why. And it seems that all the text books are supporting the original, first way I learn...

I like the citation machine! Thanks!

oh yeah, and it can't be older than 5 years... Let's narrow it down just a little more!

So, I thought I had it all down. But now, I am having problems with the Risk fors. I have always thought it was Risk for _________ RT _________ but no AEB or AMB because that would prove it was not a risk dx. But transferring to a new school has chan...

It's 100% at my school.
