  1. 12 Hour NS Days

    ohcomeon replied to my4helpers's topic in General Students

    I did at the beginning of the semester when I had two classes (one of them is over now, only lasted the first 8 weeks of the semester). I had class at 10am and then clinicals until 10-11pm at night....

  2. Something a nurse said to me at clinicals...

    ohcomeon replied to ohcomeon's topic in General Nursing

    I also wanted to add, that I am fairly certain that the patient did not hear what the nurse said. Thank God! I will speak with my instructor about this on Tuesday. I realize that it's the best thing...

    ohcomeon replied to ohcomeon's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks everyone for all the replies. I will tell my clinical instructor about this when I see her again next week. I will let you know what the outcome

  4. Something a nurse said to me at clinicals...

    ohcomeon replied to ohcomeon's topic in General Nursing

    No I didn't do either of these things and I'm seriously mad at myself for not doing them! I don't know why I didn't. Maybe for fear that she would know that it was me who reported her if she gets...

  5. Pre-reqs for a CRNA?

    ohcomeon replied to MB103's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    All of the schoolsI have looked at want either ICU experience or ER experience at a level 1 trauma center. I think the ICU experience is preferred

  6. Lithium side effects

    ohcomeon replied to CMCALC07's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  8. New Head Start RN think I am being misled

    ohcomeon replied to rn1116's topic in School

    Sorry I don't have an answer to your specific question but I would run far away from the Head Start program if I were you. I worked for them briefly after graduating from college about 10 years ago. I...

  9. What is YOUR opinion on nursing school exams?

    ohcomeon replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Students

    Oh my mistake. You make all these posts about help me, a poor nursing student who is failing, I need a mentor, no one wants to study with me, I'm going to be "plucked" and we are supposed to now...

  10. Feeling like a bad mom

    ohcomeon replied to MelanyJ's topic in General Students

  13. What is YOUR opinion on nursing school exams?

    ohcomeon replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Students

    Ok, this is the last thing I have to say...for the life of me, why on earth would someone as "educated" as you (I have a BS too by the way ) not have done the proper research before enrolling in this...

  14. What is YOUR opinion on nursing school exams?

    ohcomeon replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Students

    I have never had a "blueprint" for my exams. Actually I have never even heard of such a thing. I study the material that is covered in class. I read the chapters that cover the material discussed in...

  18. Does anyone else's program do this? (Grades)

    ohcomeon replied to CaptScrubs13's topic in General Students

    Well my school doesn't do that, however some instructors take FOREVER to get the grades posted. I am still waiting on a grade to be posted for an exam I took on Tuesday. She said they would be up by...

  19. Need Help Taking BP

    ohcomeon replied to j.brooks49's topic in General Students

    Oooohhh...this was me three semesters ago. I failed bp the first time too. My best advice is to deflate the cuff slowly. If you let the air out too quickly, it gives you an inaccurate reading.

    ohcomeon replied to Nightingale11's topic in General Students

  24. why is the pay so low?!?!

    ohcomeon replied to cawkazn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    It sucks. Sounds like the area you are in is pretty low paying. But I have to ask, didn't you know how much LVNs in your area make before you decided to become one? Hope you find something suitable...

  25. ONE POINT from passing Pharmacology first term : (

    ohcomeon replied to Flippy_Floppies's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry, there is nothing I cannot stand more in school than people asking for grades/points that they didn't earn. You said that you haven't retained any of the information. That is your answer...
