  1. Dedication to: realnursealso/lpn's sister

    That was beautiful, pagandeva2000. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this terrible time. This sounds corny, but I always loved this quote from Little House on the Prairie: "Remember...
  2. Rockin' Idol Nurse

    I love her!! I call her Rocker Nurse. She's cool and she seems like someone who would be calm and kind towards her
  3. EKG on female patients

    I like how all of you keep the breats covered. I would hate to be left uncovered whether it was done by a male or female. I have big boobs (DD) and if asked to move it up or down I wouldn't be...
  4. Should I say something to this student?

    I asked my friend who is a RN and that's what she said. Someone should have been supervising the student and noticed the problem long before you did. You should go to your manager and let her address...
  5. I AM "tough enough"!

    I'm doing pre-reqs now, but I know this will be a weakness for me in NS. I want to fix everyone and everything and can't. Listen to the instructor. It's good
  6. A Physician's disregard for families rights.

    Yup. That's what I'd do and immediately at that. I'll be praying for your father and the rest of your
  7. Re: Florida Board of Nursing--I Went TODAY!

    Congrats!! Glad things went
  8. My sister is on life support

    I'm sure your sister knows you are there in spirit. She wouldn't want you to be there if it causes you this much distress. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers. May you find peace that her...
  9. Difficult Employee...What do I do?

    I bet your worker's comp division/lawyer would like to know about her art classes and needing to practice her art. If you haven't made that call I would do so immediately. They can advise you exactly...
  10. Sent home from clinicals :(

    My guess is the instructor knew she had a terrible day and is just going to sweep the entire incident under the rug. Maybe she knew she was wrong. I'm sorry you had to go through all of that. Glad you...
  11. OB Rotation is Hell

    She might be nice, but that's a sexist thing to say. You have every right to go into OB if you so desire. You will be a RN same as the rest of us. It should be your choice. I do believe preceptors...
  12. OB Rotation is Hell

    Female here and pre-req nursing student to boot. I wouldn't have a problem with a male student/male nurse taking care of me. As long as they were professional and kind I would be okay with it. Trust...
  13. How many females are "peeking" in this forum?

    Peek. Peek. wink I'm actually pleased to see more men joining the nursing
  14. I went to the ER once with a badly broken foot and the nurse came around the desk to assess it. She said she could feel the heat coming off it, put me in a wheelchair, and put an big ice pack on it...
  15. I don't want to be a CNA anymore.

    I've just got to quote you again. I bet getting them up at 3:30 in the morning has a lot to do with some of them not wanting to get dressed. God knows I wouldn't. They have the right to
  16. I don't want to be a CNA anymore.

    Agreed on all counts. Getting them out of bed at 4/4:30 is abusive and an hour earlier just adds insult to injury.
  17. Sent home from clinicals :(

    I agree. SHOW UP TOMORROW. Sounds like the instructor was in a foul mood and you were the first one to step in her
  18. Guys, how should I handle this?

    Female pre-req nursing student here. If the laughter and joking is being done solely in the classroom I wouldn't worry about it. That probably is to lessen the stress level, have a laugh, etc. This is...
  19. Sent home from clinicals :(

    I'm a pre-nursing student and just wanted to let you know that I would be sending good thoughts and prayers your way. You have vg grades and it doesn't appear this has been an ongoing problem so I...
  20. From what I've read here based on surveys, focus on customer service, etc. the bigger question is why wouldn't ALL patients think it was a Holiday Inn. That's how many hospitals portray themselves...
  21. Congrats!! I know you studied hard and it showed!! Yeah for you!!!!!!! Question-Any science questions on your test?!
  22. So proud of my student nurse today!!!

    That's awesome!! Very sweet of you to share. It's refreshing to read about a great student/preceptor
  23. Future RN with LD in math

    I did the same thing while preparing for my entrance test. I'd been out of school for a long time and bought several books and practiced and practiced. The more you do it the easier it
  24. Future RN with LD in math

    Most people that have trouble in math often suffer from math test anxiety. I did. I knew the work inside and out but got nervous when tests started until I was able to learn to deal with my anxiety. I...
  25. Future RN with LD in math

    Did you take an assement test at the college you are attending?! You should start there if you are having trouble with this course. It will tell you where you need to start math wise and move up as...
