  8. Med Surg, Help desperately needed!!!!

    Nursing school is extremely challenging. Its challenging getting in and challenging through out. You just can't do the "get by" attitude. What will your patients think? You may need to do a self evaluation as to why you want to enter the profession. ...

  11. Books to start reading...suggestions??

    When you start reading fundamentals, test yourself by using the NCLEX RN by saunders and answer only the fundamental sections. You do not need to go beyond that. Use Saunders NCLEX with whatever topic you have. That helped me out alot. Always do ques...

  13. We took a stand against our Clinical Instructor...

    After reading post thoroughly, I have come to realize why this has become a systemic problem. We have allowed instructors to push their power on their students for decades. Students were afraid to speak up. This will not get better unless we speak up...
  14. We took a stand against our Clinical Instructor...

    Wow. Not another story of horrible instructors. When is all this going to end? Nursing programs are not cheap. When can the instructor or school be held accountable for their deficiencies??? I don't think is fair for the instructors to be allowed to...

  17. MA saying she's "the same as an RN"

    Gosh, it this true? I have never heard of this before. I was shocked when I had to go to an Urgent care and the person who was taking my vital signs was an EMT/MA. I agree with my aunt who is an LPN. The color coded uniforms should come back. All whi...
