  1. Signs of Hypoxia?

    APBT mom replied to xiongmao's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Check emedicine or web MD they usually explain the patho side of it. You can try wiki too but sometimes the info isn't reliable as anyone can put info onto that

    APBT mom replied to lulu rn's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  4. NCLEX book?

    APBT mom replied to beth66335's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    APBT mom replied to zenurse's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  7. Being screwed by LAUSD...HELP!!

    APBT mom replied to jonesygirl9's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    That sucks. I wonder why it took a month for the to realize this. I don't think I would be so understanding. I think your best bet (although I wouldn't be too trusting) would be to call the school...

  8. Why so many fail out of our program?

    APBT mom replied to lizzyberry's topic in General Students

    That's what I was going to say. If you can't find the pass rate on your schools website then go to the BON for your state and search. Here they break then up by what program you're

  13. List Of Lpn Schools In Tampa Area

    APBT mom replied to Sincere24's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm in Erwin and what they told me is that the lottery is more of a formality if they get a large number of applicants. It hasn't happened as of yet. There was 270 applicants the year I applied and we...

  14. What is a code gray?

    APBT mom replied to abbaking's topic in General Nursing

    Code gray is security at the facilities around here. It gets called when anyone's being aggresive towards any of the employees including family members of the patients. I agree with everyone else you...

  15. Tags??What are they?

    APBT mom replied to Mazzi's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    The only way I can explain this is you know when you drive down the interstate and you see a car that has a red tag hanging from the antennae, it's there to let the tow truck co that has that stretch...

  16. postpartum nursing dx

    APBT mom replied to dennall's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    There's probably better ones because risk for's aren't a priority. You didn't really give any other info other than she had a baby. If you listed some more things about the delivery you could get more...

  20. nasogastric tubes

    APBT mom replied to brownskin1's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    The same tubing could be used for both in concept but you wouldn't use it that way. The tube is either going to be used to put something in or take something out. Curious as to why you would ask this...

  21. concept mapping book by Schuster

    APBT mom replied to Kitty Hawk's topic in General Students

    I have the Gulinick care plan book and it has everything that I need in it. The only down side is there is no clear OB/peds section so I had to look at the interventions that would relate (do this...
