   NiesyLuv0o replied to RNStudy's topic in General Nursing

   That is low for south Florida from what I know. I am a new grad and the hospital I will be working starts off @ $26.02 base pay. Regardless of the organization, that is low for South Florida.

2. no new grads now, but huge influx later?

   NiesyLuv0o replied to jxRN's topic in General Nursing

   I will be a new grad in a couple of days and it is kind of frustrating to have nothing planned as a "just in case." However, the hospital that I will hopefully get a job at is has a 4.5mths residency program. They hire over 100 new grads every 6 mont...

   NiesyLuv0o replied to Gizzmo's topic in Florida

   Yea...honest answers may help as long as it is not like stealing or killing someone. You have to think, what will help me, such as a learning experience from a mistake. Well at least that is over. Did you ask when you will hear an answer? I think I ...

   How did it go with answering your questions?? She is intimidating because she is the director. But I am sure you did fine. They understand that you are nervous and all so they take it into consideration. I go to Nova. I am in my 5th semester, so I wi...

   RN42011, What school are you going to? They ask the typical interview questions...Why do you want to be a nurse? What are your weaknesses (be honest, but think before answering this). I think they ask one question to see how you think through a situ...

6. Problem with prioritizing

   NiesyLuv0o replied to NiesyLuv0o's topic in Student Assist

   Thank You DayToNite. This is exactly how it was written. It bothered me soooo mcuh, I remember it clearly. I was thinking to intubate, but I did not select it because I thought it is not necessary to intubate at this moment. I did put insert the fole...

7. Problem with prioritizing

   NiesyLuv0o replied to NiesyLuv0o's topic in Student Assist

   I know...it was one of those silly answers that will bug me for like 3 days. Iknew it was to call for help and that's why it is such an annoyance to me know. Most of the times, the questions will not apply ABC rules....so then it is just critical thi...

8. FAINTING...what made you drop?

   NiesyLuv0o replied to Music_Box_Dancer's topic in Student Assist

   So weird you start this topic now. I am not easily grossed out. But the other day, I had a patient with uncontrollable gangrene all over her body. I went to do my assessment, and the sent gave me a TKO. I almost gagged infront of her. I had never don...

9. Problem with prioritizing

   NiesyLuv0o posted a topic in Student Assist

   I am having the hardest time with prioritizing and I am in my 5th semester. Will I ever be able to answer questions on the NCLEX accurately? I had an OB exam today, but this question can also be applied to any med-surg patient. The patient had an emb...

10. Suctioning after birth

    NiesyLuv0o replied to NiesyLuv0o's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Yea, it can be very confusing. Because my clinical professor is a 20+yrs NICU nurse veteran. And she tries to teach us based on the NRP guidelines. We definitely understand that there are protocols in place, but the book makes it so much more difficu...

11. Suctioning after birth

    NiesyLuv0o replied to NiesyLuv0o's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks CEG. I definitely want the correct information, so when I go to clinicals, I do not make a mistake. Also, my textbook must be old, because it said to suction the newborn as soon as the head comes out with the shoulders still in. But does this...

12. Suctioning after birth

    NiesyLuv0o replied to NiesyLuv0o's topic in Ob/Gyn

    :yeah:haha...gotchya...the vocal cords to intubate and do a deep suctioning I suppose. Sorry, I did not understand...i only have 6 weeks of OB and this is my final week and an exam. Thanks a lot!

13. Suctioning after birth

    NiesyLuv0o replied to NiesyLuv0o's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thanks PICNICRN. Therefore the nose is suctioned first. When you say the cords...what do you mean? The cord attached to the placenta (meaning the first suction) or the cord when the baby (cord is cut) is under the warmer (subsequent suctions)? Thank ...

14. Suctioning after birth

    NiesyLuv0o replied to NiesyLuv0o's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I am confused with your response...I was refering to suctioning the newborn. Is that what you are talking about?

15. Suctioning after birth

    NiesyLuv0o posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    Question...I am studying for my OB exam and I am confused now. I know as soon as the baby emerges, you suction the mouth first and then the nose. This prevents the baby from gasping the fluid when suctioning the nose. Now, if the baby had meconium st...
