THANK YOU. I am sending you $1 million dollars (monopoly money). Our nursing instructor has tried to explain the sounds during our labs and it doesn't help.

I feel your pain, and I commend you for sharing this. It's all apart of nursing and things like this will happen to our patients, so we must learn to deal with this now or later. I have had some things happen to me like this, so I know how you feel. ...

THANK GODDDDDDDDD I am not the only one. I see the green eye monster coming out from time to time, and I ignore it. If they don't want to be around me, then fine. It's just one less aggravating person I have to deal with. I am going to talk meds/nurs...

Perhaps those that have "Mr/Ms Sleepy" sitting next to them (unless there is assigned seating) could politely ask them to move to the rear of the room. Hear me one more time...there wasssssss no rearrrrr of the room. We basically were cramped into ...

Why do people bust their butts to get into the nursing program and then fall asleep during the lecture? These people sit down front, in front of the teacher. We have 2 guys who seem to only show up to get the best nap of their lives. Funny, one guy p...

Have you tried locking her elbow, with the flat of your palm? Even on obese patients, you should be able to feel the brachial pulse when you lock the elbow. Try it, and let me know.

2. This will be more helpful on later tests, but if a question gives you a scenario, and there are 2 possible "correct" answers, ALWAYS, ALWAYS ALWAYS choose the answer that concerns safety issues. 99.9% of the time that will be the answer that the p...
