    obturator placed in trach stoma?

    I am 100% with everyone else in this. An obturator alone would be nothing more than a foreign body purposefully placed into someone's airway. She really, really needs to know that she is giving...

    GRE vs. MAT

    I'd say if most of the school's students choose to take the MAT, there must be a reason for that. Here is general info about the GRE, and here is an official practice test. Here is general info about...

    *BBFRN* Galen College question

    The issue is that several of the local hospitals have stopped accepting LPN students for clinicals...it's political, as far as I can tell. You'll get more local clinical sites when you get to the RN...

    *BBFRN* Galen College question

    slmc- I have never worked at that Kindred, but if it's like the one here, it's a fairly typical long-term hospital setting, for the most part. Lots of long-term vent patients, mostly. Hey, if you...

    *BBFRN* Galen College question

    Yeah- I believe the state of KY requires all nursing students to have a security background check completed as well, before you start clinicals. You may still have to get drug testing done at a...

    *BBFRN* Galen College question

    Good question, slmc- I'm not sure. A current or past student could best tell you the answer to your question. As a student, you will be closely monitored while passing meds during clinicals, though....
