Hey Fun -- when you were in the ER, did you use some form to track things? You know we have those forms we normally use in med/surg (the ones with the vitals, meds and times, dx, allergies ... stuff...
I think since you have a family history of nurses, then it means more to you to have a pinning ceremony. I don't have any nurses in my family, so I didn't even hear of 'pinning' until reading this...
Yeah, the jurisprudence test is not through the school ... it's like an addition to the NCLEX -- we are required to pass it to get licensed. I cannot imagine how rough that was to have to tell the...
Does anyone know how the end of the 4th semester goes? My family is trying to make travel/holiday plans, but I don't know anything about my schedule. Is the exit-HESI a few days after the final?...

I don't usually sit during clinicals, either -- but I'm moving around! I can walk all day -- it's standing still that seems to get to me :) Is there a lot of choice in which role a person is in when...
Yeah! Shadow! That's the word I was looking for From the start, I was pretty set on OR, until I heard all the rumors about the long hours standing up, without breaks. Is that true? Standing still...
