    Melinurse replied to Melinurse's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Melinurse replied to chinadolltx's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Melinurse replied to trimeduRN's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Melinurse replied to chinadolltx's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Melinurse replied to touchmenot_8870's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Melinurse replied to chinadolltx's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    You can pass with any number. Most feel like they did not do well after they come out from the test center. Try to keep yourself distracted with other things while you wait for the official results....

  22. Tremors

    Melinurse replied to Melinurse's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    I spoke with the nurse for that patient but apparently the severe spasms/tremors are an expected part of the disease process ( doctors best guess ). I wish I could say the name of the disease but...

    Melinurse replied to SuesquatchRN's topic in General Nursing

    Melinurse replied to swifty1031's topic in Online Distance Learning
