  1. How long did it take to get a job?

    babynursewannab replied to youknowho's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I agree with the above posters. It is more likely you will find something if you look prior to graduation. Right now I have two positions I need to decide between...L&D or CVICU...and I graduate...

  2. anxiety, medical knowledge, things going grrossly wrong and the trauma....

    babynursewannab replied to UnchainedFever's topic in Ob/Gyn

    No. Definitely NOT the norm! As stated before, write it up as detailed as possible and report it. I am stunned to hear a nurse would focus on urine when an obvious hypo-crash was occuring. In our...

  3. What is the difference?

    babynursewannab posted a topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    Can you all help out a soon-to-be-grad? I'm currently GN job hunting and need clarification. What is the difference between the CICU and the CVICU? Honestly, I thought they were the same (so little...

  5. What is the difference?

    babynursewannab replied to babynursewannab's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    Thank you. That helped a lot.

  6. So what DO they teach you in nursing school?

    babynursewannab replied to edogs334's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I think I'm gonna cry. That was

  7. mommies and clinicals

    babynursewannab replied to cnelle101's topic in First Year After Licensure

    :rotfl: I have to agree. Those running my program would have huge, pleasant smiles on their faces as they held the door open for you and then kicked your rear out the door. My experience is this:...

  8. Experience needed??

    babynursewannab replied to firesun's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Sorry to hear. I guess the Atlanta area's got it goin' on for GN's, then. However, it still doesn't hurt to call the recruiters and find out. I found out about the ones here by calling. It is not...

  9. Question about post-partum period

    babynursewannab replied to Altra's topic in Ob/Gyn

    The usual policy now is "as tolerated". No sex for a minimum of 3 weeks (some people fudge that, though and go earlier). And pull back on the amount of physical activity if blood in the lochia...

  10. Interested in L&D but scared of it

    babynursewannab replied to see2mee's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Catherine, Let yourself be nervous! Never let your age dictate how you follow your desires or passions. If you were a straight A student along with caring for your daughter, you thrive under...

  11. Experience needed??

    babynursewannab replied to firesun's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Don't look in the paper or anything like that for a job. Call each hospital and ask to speak with the nurse recruiter. Most places live for the new grad. There are tons of GN orientations going on...

  12. I passed, I passed, I passed!

    babynursewannab replied to Love-A-Nurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hey You!!! It's been a while since I've been on the boards (life happens). But I am so happy for you! We went through so much of this together, but you got to sprint ahead of me. lol. I grad. in...

  13. Another 75 cut off question

    babynursewannab replied to AmyHall's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am friends with many who own and teach a national NCLEX study program. They SAY that some people answer so blatantly stupid that the computer shuts them off at 75. However, I have only known one...

  14. Future CNMs

    babynursewannab replied to ayndim's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Mitchsmom, I live about an hour north of Atlanta. What city does your dad work in? I can be hard getting in the loop. Partly because most of those who are not currently CNM's or students are more...

  15. Future CNMs

    babynursewannab replied to ayndim's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I am graduating in December with my BSN and plan to go to Emory CNM program starting Fall '05. Emory is great! I live here in the area and am currently attending Kennesaw State University. I looked...

  17. Please help!

    babynursewannab posted a topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I'm a lowly undergrad (hope to go onto CRNA later), but I'm in a nursing perspectives class that is requiring I ask you fine folks a question or two. As this is an online course, I have been given...

  18. Please help!

    babynursewannab replied to babynursewannab's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    Thank you, thank you!!! I was worried I wouldn't get any responses in time. You made a very good point about the lack of

  19. pharmacology in nursing school

    babynursewannab replied to juji fruit's topic in General Students

    We take pharm while we are in the clinical sequence. Due to time constraints, they pack a full year of it into 1 semester. It was the first time in my life I ever felt "brain-meltdown". I swore it...

  20. Buying a bathing suit

    babynursewannab replied to gwenith's topic in Nursing Humor

    And I would like to point out for those of us given more than nature intended on top, the bathing suit thing stinks too. For those disgusted by those of us falling out... don't be: 1) The majority of...

  21. The opposite of nursing????

    babynursewannab replied to javamom's topic in General Students

    I just read this post and told my friend about it on the phone. Her response: "Nursing SCHOOL"

  22. Is Microbiology really that scary

    babynursewannab replied to bet0326's topic in General Students

    I loved micro so much that I've hooked up with my micro professor to do an honors research project that connects to nursing. It was a really hard class. But, interesting! Just remember to study and...

  23. Clinicals pass/fail

    babynursewannab replied to Mkue's topic in General Students

    We have pass/fail grading for our clinicals. I think that is the more fair way to do it. One never knows what they are going to approach when you come on-board the day of clinical. Also,...

    babynursewannab replied to Love-A-Nurse's topic in General Students

    This thread made me laugh! Last night we were watching old reruns of the Newlywed Game and one of the questions was "What type of housework does your wife do just like she makes whoopie?"...
