    rags replied to Kaiulani's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  14. Nclex Result

    rags replied to Kristy_joyz's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Did you hold another license prior to testing for your RN? Like for example an LPN? I would call your local BON and ask them. There may be a mistake with the date. Let us know!

    rags replied to nrsingrulz's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    A lot of times that is true, but don't' get caught up with it. If a pt's pain is under control than it isn't the top priority at that time. Important yes, but not necessarily the most important....

    rags replied to nrsingrulz's topic in Nursing Student Assistance
