Don't get me started on Nurses wrongly using FLMA....

I finally passed after failing twice. I swear by Saunders, do the CD every day there are over 1000 questions, do them over and over and i love that it gave me feedback, as to why i picked the wrong question. I swear It helped me pass my third time, I...

If you are having anxiety already, you might regret it. Being a nurse is very stressfull.

Yes........I said it........

Thanks for the hot tip, I can not wait to watch it!!

I work 6 12 hour shifts in one week, and have the next whole week off...... I am lucky.... My kids are grown up so I can (Do what I want)...

OMG find another job. I hated my previous job and thought that, this is life in nursing. I found another job and I love it. Please do not give up after all of your hard work. You do not have to like miserable, obese people for nursing. I hope the p...

On my 12 hour work day, I do not get paid for 30 minutes, so you can bet I will take a refresher nap... It does the world of good.

OMG sick to my stomach, that in this day and age people are still acting like idiots!!

I am sad that you feel "stuck". Please pick another career soon, because if I were in long term care and you were taking care of me under your own duress, I would not be happy.

Go into patient room, two cups, one normal saline to cleanse a wound and the second tap water for taking meds. Patient states " this water is really salty tasting" ........ nough said.... Thank goodness did not have potassium issues..

I work 12 houer shifts, mon, tues, wed, fri, sat and sun. I have the following week off. One week on and one week off. I am so lucky!! I really do not feel burnt out on the weeks that I work. Life is what you make of it. I can have someome dying, som...

Right!!!!!!!!! Mind your own business..... What kind of person would look up that information??? How about volunteer your time instead of getting into your co workers business??

Hats off to long care nurses as well. They have up to 30 patients sometimes, and have to be watched constantly and many are a full code and crash constantly. Hats off to every nurse who actually takes care of patients.......

For sure, the fan;))

I live in Gaylord Michigan, and I had a boss that would roll her eyes at me and be rude and disrespectful and NEVER ever work the floor. But she was sure quick to criticize me at every instance that she could. I now work at another facility in Gaylor...

that is my favorite!! We have so much fun on the night shift :)))))))

I live in northern Michigan and lpn's start out at 14.86 an hour. That is at a long term care facility associated with the hospital in Gaylord Mi.

Do all of the Cd quizzes on the Saunders cd for the Nclex. There are like 1200 questions, but they are similar to Nclex. That is what finally helped me.

Sorry, I do not believe in God, but I hope that you have studied your butt off. God can not put info in your head through Osmosis, you have to be accountable for yourself:)))) Good Luck!!! It took me three times to pass, it was hard and frustrat...

Kasandra, that was AMAZING, very good tips, and they are all true!!

Run like he!! Do not look back.

Jo Dirt, are you new to long term care?(most) People who are in the nursing love to play Bingo and play ball and interact on a young child's level. If you try to make it more complex, like I would like at my young age of 43, the residents would be co...

Everyone makes mistakes, do not be so hard on yourself, you will make more. Just learn by your five ways of a med pass and let that be a personal lesson to you.

If this is your main concernand you are in nursing, then you should get out. If you are curious about how the hospital spends money then you should get a job in their business department, and then you can come back and complain. The grass is always g...
