I have stayed up WAAAAAY past a decent bedtime laughing at these {and risking waking up my sleeping son} but - thank you all... My own contribution comes from a very heavily to term +3weeks pregnant older single woman... who ummm, believed that sexu...

I realise this thread is a bit old, but I am going through this, and believed that I was the only one... for all my classmates are all staying the same. {that I know of} When I started my studies in July, in the middle of our Tasmanian winter , I was...

[quote=princeninaThe big drama here is, as you know, the tyranny of distance... the b***** Midland Highway, but the Royal was doing something for ENs a few years ago and there is certainly a lot of political pressure to offer at least something in Ho...

I would love to do some scrapbooking or papercraft, or even some sewing... but there's these huge lumps on my desk... oh yeah, textbooks they call them. Though generally, I spend my time with my son, just reading his books to him... and have some mo...

I'm presuming you're asking as a 'never touched a needle, given meds, done documentation' desire to be a qualified member of healthcare team. I'm three weeks off my first prac assignment, having started EN fulltime at TAFE in July... I thought I wa...

Firstly, sorry it's taken so long to return to this medium, it's been a hectic few weeks. I was focusing on 'ethics' and principles... but it appears that's not what it was about. Aaargh, dumb me. After review with my lecturer {well the person auth...

I'm doing Medication Endorsed EN at TAFE at the moment, currently it's under Cert III level, {but lecturers reckon they're teaching at diploma level} It's TOUGH. {I heard today that the entire class failed first module of Medication Management Packag...

I have spent the last five months with my nose in a variety of books or plastered to this monitor... The other morning a strange blonde haired almost three year old came stumbling out of the bedroom... I feel I've forgotten who he is, except that I...

Oh, and I have near on 20 years hx, from education, to administration and personnel and all areas including Aged Care.
