    bjbabs24 replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    Ok, I do have to respond to the ignorance spouted off my Mary Anna. I am never one to sit and not say something esp. about the part of people not waiting to start their family etc... Look, I went...

  5. States accepting EC education

    bjbabs24 replied to bailey52501's topic in Online Distance Learning

    In regards to WA state-I actually work at a skilled nursing facility that has had at least four nurses get their preceptorship there. It isn't too big of deal as long as you have an RN that will sign...

  6. Been There Done That ? Please Share With Me..

    bjbabs24 replied to BuddahNature's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I tried to focus on just the concept tests and didn't even want to think about the CPNE at that time. Once I started I decided to take a test every 3 weeks so that I could stay focused and just get...

    bjbabs24 replied to rh39's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I think you are feeling a little overwhelmed at the moment with everything going on in your life with a new job, different responsibilities etc... If you need to take an extra month so be it-if that...

    bjbabs24 replied to Hooked on ER's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Thank you !!! for breaking it down. I guess I am making it way harder than it actually

  10. MICROWAVING JELLO???

    bjbabs24 replied to Hooked on ER's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I'm sorry but it still doesn't make sense to me. So, you microwave the Jello and your patient will have to drink it then? I think if you went through all that the patient would say no thanks-I...

  11. I'm back from Racine

    bjbabs24 replied to Baloney Amputation's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I truly think you should appeal especially if you got conflicting information from one CE to another. If there is the slightest chance that it could turn around the result you have nothing to lose...

  13. I'm back from Racine

    bjbabs24 replied to Baloney Amputation's topic in Online Distance Learning

    After everything you have been through I truly am sorry. I know you were prepared for this but it is just those circumstances and small things that got in the way and nothing to do with your skills....

    bjbabs24 replied to swifty1031's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Remember to not think of this as you would do at your work. This is a test so follow what TLAandy posted. You are not the primary nurse so don't do anything extra only what you are assigned. If...

    bjbabs24 replied to swifty1031's topic in Online Distance Learning

    bjbabs24 replied to krisz's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I swear it is things like this that pop up that give me the anxiety of the unknown for this test. Kind of like on EPN lately the issue of PROM. One person says 3-5 , then someone else said they did...

  20. question about EC weekend clinical

    bjbabs24 replied to krisz's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Could it have been that the patient was on strict I and O's?? Maybe this patient had to have input that was under strict guidelines. I am just throwing that out there because I had a patient once(in...

    bjbabs24 replied to NC Girl BSN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Sorry to hear about your delay! I didn't study for it and actually took it in one day. It is something you read and then take quizes after each reading. Then at the end there is a final exam. I...
