  1. Horrible Clinical Instructor!

    tokidokifantasy replied to OhioITNurse's topic in General Students

    It's interesting how every school will have some instructors like that. I think that's the way the instructor wants to teach and make us learn. It reminds me of Asian culture where parents are always...

    tokidokifantasy replied to joanna73's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    tokidokifantasy replied to lvnnars1's topic in General Students

  5. what are some reasons for a low rbc and high mch count?

    tokidokifantasy replied to onlyj's topic in General Nursing

  9. best day at clinicals... worst day at clinicals

    tokidokifantasy replied to elljayo's topic in General Students

    Worst experience: the RN won't let you do anything because she didn't trust you. The only thing she let me to was vital signs all day and when I offered to do accu check, she said ok, then she went...

    tokidokifantasy replied to Poi Dog's topic in General Students

    tokidokifantasy replied to ohmylove's topic in General Students

  16. Nursing Seminar before nursing school

    tokidokifantasy replied to smileee8787's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In our school, we had a 4 hrs orientation prior to the start of school. That helped a lot because the instructors went over what to expect in the first semester, how to study and what we should do and...

    tokidokifantasy replied to OBplease's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    tokidokifantasy replied to mama_d's topic in General Nursing

  21. First day of clinicals .. does this get easier?

    tokidokifantasy replied to Neldavi's topic in General Nursing

    tokidokifantasy replied to anneuhbanana's topic in General Students

    Qi Gong is just an exercise, it has nothing to do with religion. It helps you to breath from your stomach and not your lungs, it also directs you to move your upper and lower extremities in a way that...
