  1. Good Pop Up

    EowynRN replied to babe48076's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I got mine without a deity - but I got the good popup too, and passed today. Hard work and studying also doesn't fail!

  2. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    EowynRN replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I passed! woot! and the good popup worked yesterday. Also I got 22/75 SATA - and yes it does matter. The more you get, the higher level question you are

  3. Protocol for HIV partner notification

    EowynRN replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

    It's their responsibility - otherwise it's HIPPA. If you saw a ex-HIV patient on the street with a partner, would you walk up and say something? Nope, because it's a HIPPA violation. At least you...

  4. Great First Day!!!

    EowynRN replied to seamang2's topic in General Nursing

    You sound way more enthusiastic than me on my first clincial - I was just scared. I had to do deep breathing exercises before I went in and said hi to the patient. I would say just relax, make sure...

  5. Interesting thoughts on autonomy

    EowynRN replied to Elvish's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yeah, I agree. I had to argue tooth and nail to have my pit stopped with baby #2 once I was in active labor, and they still refused. I finally gave up as it got so painful. I'm just going back (to...

  6. Lots of SATA questions for June NCLEX testers???

    EowynRN replied to jaznia15's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just took mine today and had 22/75 SATA and I got the good popup. Only very few med questions, so hope I

  7. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    EowynRN replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I got the good popup!!!! I think this means I pass - I mean I know it does, but I can't believe it yet. That test was sooooooo

  8. Pearson Vue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 2

    EowynRN replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So just to clarify mine says ready for delivery int he little corner, and I can't do this until it says delivery is successful? I live 10 min from my testing center and I just got done. holy cow that...

  9. Ever experience a patient's family member grieving in an odd way?

    EowynRN replied to shhhh's topic in General Nursing

    Ahh, the problem with posting things on the interwebs. No matter how well you try to explain things, you leave out info, and then come back to 20 nurses who all wonder what the heck is going on....

  10. white scrub tops and males

    EowynRN replied to jltbone's topic in Men in Nursing

    Yikes. Did you just say "gay looking" and you're going to be a nurse? 1. Nurses need to be more PC than that. 2. Let's be honest, if you're worrying about looking gay, you probably shouldn't be a...

  11. Ever experience a patient's family member grieving in an odd way?

    EowynRN replied to shhhh's topic in General Nursing

    I have little experience with death and dying, but this seems within the realm of normal to me. If my husband were dying, I would want to give him as much physical contact as possible. I might not...

  12. Qbank Score Help

    EowynRN replied to BetterMeRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    General rule of thumb is 60% or higher on tests 6 and 7 according to my kaplan instructor. I got 63% on test7 yesterday and I take my NCLEX tomorrow - currently freaking

  13. Kaplan Question Trainer Scores

    EowynRN replied to Kwillpassnclex13's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Now I'm feeling more disheartened - I was hoping other people were doing worse with 4 and 5 too. I feel like I do better at the overall application questions, so hopefully I do better on 6 and 7...

  14. Christmas with Patient

    EowynRN replied to caregiver10's topic in General Nursing

    Zookeeper - ITA. I'm wondering if people who only celebrate Christmas bring stuff on Hanukkah for their Jewish patients? And how awkward for the atheist patients (16% of the US is atheist). Maybe...

  15. Yelled at for posting on AN

    EowynRN replied to Bormio's topic in General Students

    I'm not sure what you expect. First, I doubt they actually "yelled" at you, so I'm going to assume you exaggerate a bit anyway. Second, I just looked at your thread history and the thread you...

  16. Adventist and Agnostics?

    EowynRN replied to PiedPiperRN's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm an Atheist myself (sometimes agnostic to be honest), and I would apply for the job in a tight market. I wouldn't go around wearing my religious beliefs on my sleeve because that's just...

  17. VBAC for a Lady Who Has Had 2 Previous C-sections

    EowynRN replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    You've been in the childbirth industry for 23 years and this is your first run in with a VBAC after 2 c-sections? That's really surprising! It really doesn't matter what other experiences are...

  18. VBAC for a Lady Who Has Had 2 Previous C-sections

    EowynRN replied to BabyRN2Be's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Are you a member at the childbirth collective? There are a ton of doulas there that would probably be able to give you better advice. That being said, remember you should always go with your...

  19. Prayer as a Nursing Intervention

    EowynRN replied to TOYMECH's topic in General Nursing

    I'd have to strongly agree with this. Quoting the bible as evidence when most of it (new testament at least) was written 100+ years after Jesus of Nazareth died like saying The Odyssey is evidence....

  20. Prayer as a Nursing Intervention

    EowynRN replied to TOYMECH's topic in General Nursing

    Whether it works or not is really subjective, and you will never find a scientific rationale for prayer healing unless you can link it to lowered bp, etc. Either way, it can never be implemented as a...

  21. Cliques in Nursing School

    EowynRN replied to KMC-RN-BSN-710's topic in General Students

    I wouldn't worry too much. You might be trying too hard, and just personality wise you might come off as really high strung/needy when you do that (I know I do). The best thing you can do is relax...

  22. Health Problems for new born babies

    EowynRN replied to thatsforreal's topic in General Students

    I would focus on respiratory problems as that is the biggest problem with c-section babies. Also, possible underdevelopment problems. A lot of moms now are having scheduled c-sections at 38-39 weeks...

  23. North Hennepin or Hennepin Tech??

    EowynRN replied to Sunshine1500's topic in General Nursing

    The truth of the matter is, that even though NHCC says it's a 2 year program, it's not. It's a 4-5 year program, because as Matt says, you have to have pre-reqs done to be accepted and it takes at...

  24. Accepted to North Hennepin for Fall, anyone else?

    EowynRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    I just got my acceptance letter yesterday for North Hennepin for the fall. Did anyone else get theirs? I'm so excited!! I'm doing the night/weekend program. Who's with

  25. Nhcc

    EowynRN replied to 3preemiemom's topic in General Nursing

    Jessica, is that you? I'm just guessing from the 3 preemie mom name. This is Erica. That test was awful. There are 2 girls that sit on my side of the room who both have mid-90's averages and got...
