  2. Bipolar and going into nursing

  4. Drug seeking or real pain? How do you tell?

    Since I believe that people own their own bodies and it is not my job to play God of morality, if a client says they are in pain... Then they are in pain! Obviously, if someone is already under the influence then that is a game changer but if a perso...

  10. Obama's health plan takes shape

    Looks like we will be getting that 25% VAT (value added tax) sooner than we thought. Every time a commodity moves it will be taxed. The problem is that Countries that have a VAT don't have the IRS. Also, they do not have 30% of their country with or...
  11. ATI Comprehensive NCLEX test?

    I took this test while in school and it said a had a 96% chance of passing the first time. I took the NCLEX and I passed on the first time. All I did after graduating was use the Saunders CD for 2wks before the test.

  16. Nursing Care Plan

    yes, they are a pain in the rear. When I was in the LVN program I always wondered why there was not a class on nursing care plans and labs. I guess because you get a little bit with each system. I'll tell you what is cool, get the care plan flash ca...
