We have a NP that visits our faclity that works in derm and wounds only. HTH

Nope, I don't tell.

Thanks everyone for the input I have the Omnicare markerter currently stocking me to switch over. I was intrested because they will do the MR for you however after reading several of your post Im not to sure.....

Hi everyone I haven't been on in a while and so glad I founf this thread. I currently work as a NUrse Manager in a ALZ ALF we have two faclities and hold a total 36 residents. I love my job and wouldn't change it for the world. We have two amazing NP that make visits/rounds and I have learned a ton for them. IM incharge of almost everything ie. contacting MD, MARS, new orders all the wasy down to fire drils and ordering TP. Does anyone elso do the pill boxing system out there?

Lunesta is not scored, and if it was when you cut a 3mg pill in half that would have been 1.5mg. In my opnion that would have been a medication error and as a DON I would have had a fit as well. What she should have done is got a one time order for 3mg untill the 2mg was avail.

Im a new grad in texas pass my board in Feburary 08. Im working in assisted living @ $17.00 hr. between 16-20 residents. Nursing Homes here pay between 17-22 a hr. I interviewed at a hospital starting pay was $14.50. (a joke) I do however feel that I am not utilizing my skills to my fullest ability and sometimes wonder if I should move on.............

I met with TCN last week but did not sign. Its just seemed to expensive and I already owe $20,000 in student loans. I did a little reasearch and want to go directly through Excelsier. I have no idea how to get started. I plan on taking three class at my local CC over the summer and then I will need Ethics, Micro and A&P and off course all my LVN-RN courses. Any advise? Should I by pass summer school and take the other courses with excelsier? :nurse:Emerld2000:nurse:

Congradulations!!! Im glad you feel so confident about the test.The odds are in your favor. Everyone I know whos had 85 questions has passed. The wait is still nerve wracking though. Let me know when you find out:cheers:

Good luck to you and please do not overstudy. Right before i walked into the Pearson Vue testing center I called my sister I said "I hope I got what it take to pass this test" she said "you don't have anything to worry about you've already got it now you need to apply it" I feel like 10,000 lbs have been lifted off my back. Im sorry you have to wait 4 weeks I would have gone crazy! Good luck again

Paradise, we all feel inadequate after taking this exam. The odds are in your favor only having 85 questions three of us from our class took the test so far we all passed and all had 85 questions. My other friend took hers today also got 85 questions. I know the wait is very nerve wracking....you came to the right place. Your in my prayers. Emerld 2000 LVN

I also took a live review. The NURSE who gave it suggested to study out of a new NCLEX book to prevent you from just memorizing your answers.

I took my NCLEX on 2/2 and just found out today that I PASSED:w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t: I used saunders and Kaplin Q BANK I was scoring in the %70 range on Kaplin. I liked Kaplins because I felt that those questions really challenged me. Saunders was good as long as you read the rational. GOOD Luck!!

Ruper, just went on the pearson vue web site and got my results.......... I PASSED:w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t: I was so nervour entering my credit card # in Im continuing my education and I was in the lobby of my school and I broke down and cryed. My friend was at the computer next to me checking her results she also passed:w00t::w00t::w00t: Thanks for the info about checking in 48 hours. That was the best $7.95 I ever spent..:w00t:

I took NCLEX 2/2 I too had 85 questions. 20-30 select all that apply. My results are in on the pearson web site and I passed:w00t::w00t::w00t:My two friends test also stoped at 85 and they also passed:w00t::w00t: I think to odds are in your favor. Good Luck!

Keep us posted on what you decide to do. I hope everything turns out for the best.
