    TeachEmNursing replied to AnnieOaklyRN's topic in NICU, Neonatal

  4. Story of New Job Teaching at Unaccredited LPN School

    TeachEmNursing replied to dirtroadbsn's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    Sounds like my experience except i stayed for 2 years. I tried to help the students as much as possible (without doing the work for them). I only taught foundations clinical and subbed for a couple of...

  5. Funny/happy NICU moments needed

    TeachEmNursing replied to 2curlygirls's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    It's funny how little boys hands always seem to find their way to their crotch. I noticed it really doesn't change as they get older. I'm always tickled when you take the feeder/growers (like the...

  11. CNA's/Tech's in the NICU

    TeachEmNursing replied to hamlj's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    No offense to CNA's & techs but I started my nursing career in the NICU as an LPN and I'd rather see them in the NICU as opposed to techs.

  12. Books about NICU?

    TeachEmNursing replied to jetskibabe68's topic in NICU, Neonatal
