  1. First shift with multiple pts

    kgh31386 replied to pockunit's topic in General Students

    What made you fold though? You could ask the nurses on the floor what they do to keep on top of things. I work nights and we usually have 6 pts each, sometimes 5, and rarely 4. But what works for one...

  2. First shift with multiple pts

    kgh31386 replied to pockunit's topic in General Students

    and why not? How many patients you talkin about? Before I graduated, we did our leadership clinical for 6 months before graduation and had 4-5 patients all on us. We did all the admission, d/c,...

    kgh31386 replied to MaleNurse25's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thread from the dead. I hope before you get that MD you understand that inotropic and chronotropic are different things lol. Dig is a POSITIVE INOTROPIC and NEGATIVE CHRONOTROPIC...what's the problem?...

  5. Anyone here ever failed out of nursing school?

    kgh31386 replied to blessed2bfree's topic in General Students

    They do all say that, and I find it hard to believe the teacher would do that for no reason. the student evals would show it and the teacher would be moved somewhere else or replaced. They do take...

  7. Hipaa Violation

    kgh31386 replied to catlady376's topic in General Students

    lol there's a difference between "hard-a" and just obnoxious. Why dismiss an instructor over something a student did AFTER clinical? It sounds like the instructor gave the students a census sheet of...

  8. New Nursing Students

    kgh31386 replied to DeterminedChristi's topic in General Students

    again...very much agreed

  9. A Nursing Student Vents

    kgh31386 replied to CareFully's topic in General Students

    This, I agree, is not the best idea. My teachers wrote their own exam, end of story. I do think some nursing students expect things to be handed to them. I'm sure someone has gotten an A in your...

  10. Leadership Management

    kgh31386 replied to nurset13's topic in General Students

    Sounds just like the QI project we had to do lol. Don't pick something boring like handwashing...make a twist and do something like who wears gloves during IV insertion or blood draws. I've seen...

  11. A Nursing Student Vents

    kgh31386 replied to CareFully's topic in General Students

    Oh I forgot to ask -Again how can you judge which students should or should not be allowed through the program? You may hate someone's attitude, but that doesn't mean they won't be a good nurse....

  12. A Nursing Student Vents

    kgh31386 replied to CareFully's topic in General Students

    I'm gonna make a bullet point response. I'm not being mean, rude, disrespectful or anything..I'm just stating some facts along with your comments. -I'm sure not everyone is cramming. I'm sure many...

  13. Advice? Significant Other: "You make too much for what you do."

    kgh31386 replied to Coffeebeanie's topic in First Year After Licensure

    If someone thinks I make too much for what I

  14. School giving me bad reputation...

    kgh31386 replied to patricianyc's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Ok so the OP didn't list anyone from their school as a reference. However with the competition amongst new grads, employers WILL contact the school on their own to ask about the student. While...

  15. I know the day is not even over and im complaining..

    kgh31386 replied to Pneumothorax's topic in General Students

    The index should be detailed enough to have the specific subtopics and their respective page numbers. You can do 1 of 3 things... A. see what info you can get out of the old version before you buy the...

  16. Has anyone ever put down your career choice?

    kgh31386 replied to Servingshots's topic in General Students

    Some folks don't know what nurses do..but how can you really describe what a nurse does? My friends all think it's cool what I do. They also think my schedule is awesome since I'm off 3-5 days at a...

  17. Anyone here ever failed out of nursing school?

    kgh31386 replied to blessed2bfree's topic in General Students

    This is where time management comes into play. You can't say...well one patient will take away from time with the rest. So if all 5 of them die, it's only like 1 died. I don't see the reasoning behind...

  18. tips for calming NCLEX nerves

    kgh31386 replied to quinnie's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    When I took it, I wasn't nervous..and the reason is because a test is just a test and I don't listen to people hype things up. A lot of nursing students tend to make things sound much harder than they...

  19. Failed NCLEX again! woohoo!

    kgh31386 replied to RudyMvp1's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm not going to sympathize. If you don't care, then you don't care. But really, the test doesn't trick you..you trick yourself. The reason people think it's so hard is because they let it get to...

  20. School giving me bad reputation...

    kgh31386 replied to patricianyc's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Now I'm not questioning what you're saying, just trying to get all the info here. You say you have no idea who said these things about you right? But you also say you know they aren't on your...

  21. Terrified Med Surg student

    kgh31386 replied to swansonplace's topic in General Students

    My advice is, before you start looking for tips and tricks...look at why you only made a C and forgot most of your pharm and assessment

  22. I know the day is not even over and im complaining..

    kgh31386 replied to Pneumothorax's topic in General Students

    well page numbers don't matter..just look up topics in the index or table of contents. Information will be the same, just look up where it moved

  23. Anatomy harder than nursing school classes?

    kgh31386 replied to want2banrn's topic in General Students

    When I took A&P I, I was still a chem major and took Organic Chem, A&P I, Physics II, Biomedical Ethics, and some other class at the same time because I had planned on goin to Pharmacy school....
