From a current student, I tell you this: You want a school to go to without a waiting list, without worries of jobs conflicting with school, or that living in a exotic place will be worth the expense?? You think you've found your fantasy island??? WA...

Geez'us. Not sure why people are asking questions that they should be beating the pavement to get themselves. If you feel happy and secure w/iuon...why aren't they supplying you with all the answers? ...yeah, whatever...I'm praying too. If you are he...

Wow, where to start....wow... First yes iuon is a school that students that are really driven to succeed in nursing should attend. Yes, iuon has and is still going through "growing pains"....but...you mentioned iuon earning its respects from new coll...

Ok all, here it is. Sit down and brace yourself. I have updated information, oh, I have graduated with a BSN degree!!! its a victory at a great cost... There is a lot that I wish I knew prior to signing on with iuon. If I knew just 3 of the things I ...

grrr ...hate to ask this, but where is the thread with the allnurses.com nclex review guidelines, made by a allnurses.com moderator. Thanks, scuttles :paw::paw:

Inter American University of Puerto Rico, San Juan. I gave them a call and reconfirmed that they do have nursing classes in english. Good luck! :paw: :paw: :paw: :paw: :paw: :paw: (just cause I like animals)

Anyone have any information of the procedure of or experience working with agencies like Doctors Without Borders, or Ship of Hope or others like them. Also anyone work in a developing country and how was it? I'm seriously looking into working at le...

I like this topic...now if the coffee would just kick in, I could be useful. I've noticed that I like to have a hemostat, a calculator and tape on me at all times. Also, I don't like having anything around my neck (steth., ID necklaces, etc.), the p...

Kinda wondering what everyone's experience is in regards to nursing theorist. I've had to study Watson, then transition into studying Gordons', then finally Leninger. Would like to know if they, any theorist, are enforced in schools and practice. S...

....and remember, nursing test are nothing like standard college classes. Well, in my experience that is. The first exam is always the "feeler" exam. And always, always, met with the instructor to go over the test one-on-one, and get pointers on ho...

"Breath mints"!!! SO true, I still breath a travel toothbrush/paste w/me always. Sometimes you forget, until you begin to wonder who poo'd their bed...then you realize its your breath. Nothing says "love" better than a garlic, bacon and sour cr...

http://www.free-ed.net/sweethaven/MedTech/NurseCare/NeuroNurse01.asp?iNum=44 saw someone posted this in response to a question, and can't seem to figure out how to get to the "Home" page. The layout is simple and after long hours in a book, sometim...

wow! Thanks very useful site. Like the simplicity

A wet nose, sloppy kisses, and the usual dose of whimpering.....gotta luv dogs...*sleepy time now* :zzzzz

I agree with what has been said before and let me add.. don't procrastinate! Get things done asap. Trying to stay atop the material will be hard, but projects and papers, try to get those done asap. Also, make mnemonics of everything to help you st...

I know I'm going to have a tough time with the NCLEX. I suffer from text anxiety and its haunted me for years. Everyone I talked to have all said, to go out and do something fun the day before the boards. "You'll know the material, you just need to...

I have never had a bad study group experience. Grant it, our study groups start with bs'ing, then shift into high gear and its all business. Before a exam we come together and the bs'ing takes a very very way back seat. We mainly dissect the chapte...

Clinical ladder? Thats a new one on me. What is Benner's full name? Getting too many hits on google. -Scuttles

Excellent, thank you. I've always believed that medics/corpman have set the pace for our field. -Scuttles

Be worried about clinical's, not terrified. Its what we are striving for. You sense all the negatives, but the positives are far more often and encompass all that we hope for. Talking to our patient, learning from a "older generation," or a differ...
