    Marie-SC posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I was 100% positive about my decision to become a nurse until I found this web site and now I am on the fence. Although this site is a wonderful place to ask questions and get information, I have been...

    Marie-SC posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    I have wondered this for the past 2 years and keep forgetting to ask my doctor... Why did he draw blood out of my baby's cord after he cut it? I did not have it saved and I really don't care if he...

  4. Just met "Ms. Know It All LPN"

    Marie-SC replied to kstec's topic in General Nursing

    dang! She could have at least waited a week or two before she showed that she "knows it all." I'm assuming she is much older than you.... Her saying that the residents don't say "please" and "thank...

  8. Fall Semester - Need your vote!

    Marie-SC replied to itsa307's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At my school, A&P I and II is pre-reqs for Micro. I would think that there is a reason for this. Maybe Micro is easier after taking A&P I and II. Just a

  9. Do family members injuried bother you more than patients?

    Marie-SC posted a topic in General Nursing

    This may sould like a crazy question but do your family members injuries/blood bother you more than a patients? I made it through 2 weeks of clinicals in a LT facility with no problem with any bodily...

    Marie-SC posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am taking AP I in the summer and am a little worried b/c it is crammed into such a short semester. I will have lecture and lab twice a week. Just a little worried about having my lab report from...

  11. Just A Little Question........

    Marie-SC replied to kad13579's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    :bow:Daytonite, you are the bomb! You better stick around for a long time! I have a feeling I will be needing your wisdom! I have noticed that on a lot of post you explain in such detail. You are...

  12. are they supposed to know this by now?

    Marie-SC replied to labrador4122's topic in First Year After Licensure

    In your post you write as if you was nice about it so I commend you for that. But I am a very hands on person and if I have only been shown how to do something (even multiple times) I sometimes don't...

  13. Question for Managers who do their own hiring......

    Marie-SC replied to Marie-SC's topic in Nurse Management

    Thank you both for your replies! That is encouraging! Like said before, I really believe that I can get the job if I can just get an interview. Is there anything that you look for on resumes?...

    Marie-SC posted a topic in Nurse Management

    I am a student and am currently working on my pre-reqs as I am on the waitlist for a LPN program (which I will be merging into the RN program). I am very interested in a position at my local hospital,...

  16. Eww white uniforms??

    Marie-SC replied to jla623's topic in General Students

    Or even better wear nude/tan underwear (bra and panties). Someone told me to "Try a tan bra b/c it will match you skin!" I thought to myself, DUH and went and bought me a tan bra and have been wearing...

  17. Another discouraged, unhappy camper here

    Marie-SC replied to Scooter321's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All of this talk about 4.0 GPA's and not getting into ADN programs just blows my mind. My school has a waitlist for LPN and RN and no applications/acceptances/denials. Basically if you want to go into...

  18. Do Cheaters Annoy You?

    Marie-SC replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, cheaters annoy me! I am not busting my butt until 3am (on top of the weeks that I've been studying) to study for a class and then let someone copy answers. And I don't care who notices me...

  19. Should I be expelled?

    Marie-SC replied to casurfer's topic in General Students

    I don't know why you would be expelled for that. In my micro class, as soon as a test was over we were dismissed. I would take a highlighter and highlight everything in my notebook that was on the...

  20. Do family members injuried bother you more than patients?

    Marie-SC replied to Marie-SC's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks for all of your replies! This gives me some relief. I have never had any problems with blood or bodily fliuids except for those two times. I was kind of surprised by my reaction to these two...

  21. Injection Procedures

    Marie-SC posted a topic in General Nursing

    First of all I am a pre-nursing student, not in nursing school yet. This is more of a personal experience concern/question but feel that I will get the best answer here. So here's what happened.... In...

  23. What's the difference between A&P for Practical Nurse and A&P for Registered Nurse

    Marie-SC replied to QUEBEBRAN's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    At my school LPN's must take Basic A&P which is one semester and RN's must take A&P I, A&P II and Micro. From what I understand Basic A&P is not as in depth, much easier and has no...

  24. Anatomy & Physiology I

    Marie-SC replied to QUEBEBRAN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know exactly how you are feeling! I took A&P I a few semesters back and withdrew. I sat in class one day and thought to myself, "I am too damn stupid to even as a question in this class!" then...

  25. the RN's appearance

    Marie-SC replied to Olli's topic in General Nursing

    Although I am not a nurse yet, I have been a patient quite a few times and I think it is perfectly fine and maybe even better for a nurse to chew gum. Not Bubblelicious with all of the smacking. But...
