  1. Oncology vs med-surg experience

    sunnydaydream replied to Student J's topic in Oncology

    I've worked the BMT floor for a year+ now and came directly out of nursing school. I can see that med-surg nursing allows a nurse to get the basic feel of everything, but if your in med-surg and are...

  2. Day shift vs. Night shift in Oncology

    sunnydaydream replied to rnoncology's topic in Oncology

    I have to agree with you tinderbox. I had five weeks of orientation on day shift for the BMT unit I work and we were busy but now that I am on night shift we are still super busy. You can't learn as...

  3. NCLEX question..............

    sunnydaydream replied to Innurse78's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Actually you just have to wait on the school to send their info into the ISBN. When you send your money order in to the ISBN it's a pretty quick turn around and so is the Pearson part too. Our class...

    sunnydaydream posted a topic in Indiana Nursing

  9. How did you continue on from your ASN degree?

    sunnydaydream replied to sunnydaydream's topic in Indiana Nursing

    sunnydaydream posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    sunnydaydream replied to UM Review RN's topic in General Nursing

  14. Aides and Nurses - Different Outlook, Lack of Understanding

    sunnydaydream replied to Weeping Willow's topic in General Nursing

    I've been a CNA for 9 years and just recently graduated with an ASN and will soon be working as a graduate nurse in one week... So my opinion is only that of a CNA in a LTC. It seems that CNAs have...

    sunnydaydream replied to Aedana's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Got mine today too! Literally had to remind myself that I still have to sign up for the test and *now* isn't the time to be having a panic attack! Oy, still not sure which date, but probably third...

  18. Aaaaarrrrrrggggggh!!

    sunnydaydream replied to lil' girl's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    There have been plenty of times as a CNA that I've worked 16 hr shifts (days and evenings) and have known that it would be me and another girl for the whole 16 hours for around 55 patients...

  19. Did anyone hate nursing school?

    sunnydaydream replied to FNPhopeful's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I guess the nursing school that I went to was different.:uhoh21: We didn't have any pre-clinical day assignments, but had paperwork that had to be filled out during the day. The class at the beginning...

    sunnydaydream posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

  22. Stethoscope as Graduation Gift?

    sunnydaydream replied to Proud Big Sis's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    You might want to make sure that she doesn't have a stethoscope already as many nursing students have already gotten one that they plan on using once they start practicing. If she doesn't have one...

  23. Waiting on ATT letter...

    sunnydaydream replied to Aedana's topic in First Year After Licensure

  24. Do you have a best friend at work?

    sunnydaydream replied to sleepyndopey's topic in General Nursing

    As a CNA I've had a co-worker buddy for close to 7 years. It's been the best 7years of my life because we can read each other's minds and know exactly what each of us is going to do. (She gets the...
