  1. When your the patient, do you tell the nursing staff your a nurse?

    Simpleplan replied to DemonWings's topic in General Nursing

    No, I don't ever. I'd rather see upfront what kind of person/nurse they are than see a facade. Also, nurses specialize and other nurses forget this. They seem to think you know everything about...

  2. New RN's attitude toward experienced LVNs.

    Simpleplan posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    Many of the LVN's at my job are very experienced. I have been working as a CNA and will soon be an RN. This is going to cause some uncomfortable situations. For instance, I am use to running errands...

  3. LVN/LPN Assessments

    Simpleplan posted a topic in General Nursing

    I was taught in school LVN/LPN's were not allowed to assess. I keep hearing LVN's at work trying to make the case that they can. What are the limits to the tasks the LVN can be

  4. how are you paying for nursing school? or how do you plan to pay for nursing school?

    Simpleplan replied to mashamontago's topic in General Students

    I owe 30,000 for my biology degree which I didn't finish and about 50,000 for my nursing

  5. Why the fanny packs?

    Simpleplan replied to kstockdaleRN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I just bought that one a couple of days ago. I can't wait to wear it to work. I was able to fit everything in there. Does your stethoscope fit in there

  6. Are Students Protesting HESI??

    Simpleplan replied to 2btmanrn's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Sorry to hear that. I recently passed the NCLEX. I have to say what helped me most was what I was taught in nursing school. I really can't say Kaplin helped me a great deal. The best thing about...

  7. 1st day as an RN.

    Simpleplan posted a topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I am glad that is over. The worst part is the wait. I am so glad I didn't have wait 6 weeks like they use

  8. 1st day as an RN.

    Simpleplan replied to Simpleplan's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Thanks, that is bad. One thing we have to worry about now though, is anyone can go on the BON website before you do and find out if you passed or failed. Either way the wait was driving me

  9. Why the fanny packs?

    Simpleplan replied to kstockdaleRN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I need one where can I find them. The stethoscope and scissors are pulling my pants down when I am walking. That's why.

  10. Are Students Protesting HESI??

    Wow, I thought if you passed the HESI you'd surely pass the

  11. Anyone Up For Random FACT THROWING??

    Simpleplan replied to CrazyScrubNurse's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    That's a good plan. It was a pain in the butt because most feel they failed after they take it and then you have to keep telling everyone... I don't know my results yet. lol then 5 mins later......

  12. Anyone worried about throwing up or passing out?

    Simpleplan replied to c18436572's topic in General Students

    All I know is a girl I went to school with passed out once while doing I think a blood draw. She graduated and is now an RN. There are jobs where you don't necessarily have to work around

    Thanks so much. My test isn't until 1230pm. Still I would like to go to sleep yet I am wide awake peeing every 5 mins. I am nervous. I did get quite a bit of sleep earlier though so I should be...

  19. Are Students Protesting HESI??

    Simpleplan replied to 2btmanrn's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I didn't have to take it either. I know people who are stuck and can't graduate or take the NCLEX due to HESI. I would be furious. I am curious what my score would be. Does anyone know the...

  20. Interviewer asked about my GPA

    Simpleplan replied to JessicaSN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I still say GPA is a small indicator of an individual. Many of the people I saw graduating with honors were single, no kids, and used the "study guides" provided by the previous class. A "study guide"...

    Effects of Caffeine can linger 8-12 hours after ingestion, even though the benefits of caffeine peak at 1 hr and seem to disappear at around 4 hours. Also, I suggested eliminating alcohol altogether...
