  1. Free Lippincott questions/tests

    chase4myheart replied to RNsRWe's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I went to this site, but I noticed that it was only for the RN practice test. Can you recommend any sites for the LPN practice tests? I would love to get some practice. Everytime that I google for...

  2. Pharmacology

    chase4myheart replied to BBERFY's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I finished pharmacology in the spring semester. We did have to remember some of the classifications of drugs, but mostly what it entailed was using formulas to check physician's orders for...

    chase4myheart replied to sugabuga's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I had my first child a month after I turned 18. My second child was born 18 months later. I have just turned 40 and am the pround grandmother of a very beautiful little boy named Chase (that's where...

  4. Are You Happy ?

    chase4myheart replied to buildingmyfaith57's topic in General Nursing

    One year ago my husband and I both lost our jobs due to a plant closing. He still hasn't found a job, but I'm in nursing school and will graduate in May. In spite of all of this, I consider myself...

  5. Can I take a "NON-Smoking" break please?

    chase4myheart replied to Luvbuble's topic in General Nursing

    I just love how Roy always takes up for the smokers. I also try to respect the people who don't smoke. I carry a travel bottle in my pocket that is filled with Febreeze and always spray my uniform...

  6. Nursing without the "yukkies".

    chase4myheart replied to skybirdrising's topic in General Nursing

    I can't comprehend why a germaphobic would even contemplate a career in the healthcare field. We all do things in this world that we don't particularly enjoy. We just do them because we have to....

  7. pain management after surgery

    chase4myheart replied to HyperRNRachel's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with Ca43. How long had the patient been taking narcotics before the surgery? I had back surgery last year. Prior to that surgery, I had been taking Lorcet 10/750 and Tylox for the 6 months...

  8. Forsyth Medical Center

    chase4myheart replied to miranda1200's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    The only thing that I can tell you about Forsyth Hospital is that they do hire LPNs. Baptist Hospital which is also in Winston is a wonderful place to work. I can't tell you about specific pay and...

    chase4myheart replied to bclily's topic in General Nursing

    First of all, congratulations on your recovery. Please don't give up. No one knows what you have gone through until they have walked in your shoes. I just know that there is someone out there who...

  10. The dreaded panty line.......

    chase4myheart replied to colleen10's topic in General Students

    The first time that I tried on my white top and white pants I felt like a marshmellow or the Pillsbury Doughgirl. I'm sure this white uniform isn't going to look as nice coming out of clinicals as it...

  11. The dreaded panty line.......

    chase4myheart replied to colleen10's topic in General Students

    I start clinicals next month. We have to wear white pants and a white shirt that was purchased through the college, and these are completely see through. Our instructors have told us that we cannot...

  12. I'm so devastated. I honestly don't know how to do this....

    chase4myheart replied to Emma123's topic in General Nursing

    Please don't give up on your career now. You are so close to finishing. I know that your heart is broken now, but I promise that it will get better. Your children are definitely eligible for SSI...

  13. No More Demerol IV Push???

    chase4myheart replied to VickyRN's topic in Emergency

    I fiind all of this information very interesting. I was a patient in the ER Friday due to severe dehydration and nausea from a stomach virus that has been going around. I think that this is the...

  14. Pa None Smoking!

    chase4myheart replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

    I am a smoker and I am in the nursing program. All that I can say is that I guess my Marlboro's have saved many of a person's life when I am stressed out. I know that smoking contradicts everything...

  15. is the nclex too easy?

    chase4myheart replied to traumahawk99's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think that the reason that the pass rate is so high is attributed to the teaching skills at the facility where that you went to school. I would also like to think that anyone who goes to school...

    chase4myheart replied to SouthernLPN2RN's topic in LPN to RN

  17. Why did you take up nursing? What's your story?

    chase4myheart replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    I became a CNA in 2000 right after my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer. At the time I was working in a sawblade factory. I didn't give up my factory job after I got my CNA because the pay was...

  18. Any PN students here?....

    chase4myheart replied to wasted-enough-time's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I just got capped tonight in my LPN program. I'm very happy to be in the LPN program. A lot of people asked me why that I didn't go directly into the RN program. I just felt that this was right for...

  19. Visitation and staying the night

    chase4myheart replied to optimisticSRNA's topic in MICU, SICU

    I live in a very small town in Virginia. Usually whenever a family member gets seriously ill they are transferred to a much larger hospital in North Carolina. This is over 100 miles away. When this...

  20. Premium membership reservations?

    chase4myheart replied to rn/writer's topic in General Nursing

    To Snjoy: I just caught your post about the death of your child. That definitely puts everything else in perspective for me. I have no right to whine about my lack of money when you are having to go...

  21. Premium membership reservations?

    chase4myheart replied to rn/writer's topic in General Nursing

    I think that this is an excellent site, and I love reading these boards everyday. My husband and I both lost our jobs when the factory we were working at went overseas. I'm in my second year of...

  22. Some musings about reading posts here...

    chase4myheart replied to Lurksalot's topic in General Nursing

    Mercyteapot: Please let me apologize. I didn't mean to upset anyone. I enjoy reading these boards very much, and I certainly don't want anyone to be mad at me. I never said that I was perfect. I...

  23. Some musings about reading posts here...

    chase4myheart replied to Lurksalot's topic in General Nursing

    I was very fortunate to have an excellent english teacher while I was in high school. Everyone literally hated her because she was so tough, but I loved english and I loved her. We are still good...

  24. What's Your Best Nursing Ghost Story?

    chase4myheart replied to steffck's topic in General Nursing

    What I'm about to tell doesn't apply to nursing other than the fact that I was in nursing school when it happened. A few months ago my two son's best friend was tortured and murdered. It was done by...

  25. Virginia Student Nurses?

    chase4myheart replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in Virginia Nursing
