  5. Grayson County Nursing Program

    TexasGirl24 replied to dcRn2b's topic in Texas Nursing

    They don't really care if you had to take sciences more than once. I would say if you have 25 or more points, you have a great chance of getting in. I had 28 when I was accepted in Fall of 08. You...

  9. Physical assessment question

    TexasGirl24 replied to ohyeahuh's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    We were just always told not to use "normal", even though I see nurses use it every day. As far as for while you are in school, I would stay away from that word. Our instructors like us to be...

  10. Maternity Test Question bothering me

    TexasGirl24 replied to Esther2007's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Just so you know...you can administer Oxygen if it is an emergency situation, in which this one is. You will just inform the Dr. that you administered it and he will write the order afterward. No Dr....

  11. Don't wear gloves when doing vitals on post-partum mom

    TexasGirl24 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    Our instructor told us that it is not necessary to wear gloves for VS, but it is completely a personal choice. I can understand where you are coming from when you said if something came up and you had...

  12. Should a nursing instructor tell a student they are not nursing material.

    TexasGirl24 replied to motivated2nurse's topic in General Students

    That is definitely wrong in many ways. I would suggest to your friend that she should contact the Nursing Administrator or whoever is this instructor's supervisor. We had an instructor last semester...

    TexasGirl24 replied to picurn10's topic in General Students

    Yeah....our test question said something like "Which of the 6 rights is missing in this scenario?" It was a multiple choice. Seems pretty easy, but they tried to confuse us on a couple of

  14. Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

    TexasGirl24 replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

  15. 6 Rights or 5 Rights?

    TexasGirl24 replied to picurn10's topic in General Students

    It is 6....and yes it is a fairly new thing. Some schools may do that "10 rights" thing, but I guarantee the majority does 6.......and no you're not going to fail if you do 6. Education, Evaluation...

    TexasGirl24 posted a topic in General Students

    So I got engaged Dec. of 2007 and I am just curious if there is anyone out there who got married during Nursing school. I would really like to get married next summer (on summer break), but I'm not...

  20. Surround area schools and Grayson Community College...

    TexasGirl24 replied to BlueberryGirl's topic in Texas Nursing

    I wouldn't say that it's "easier" to get into Grayson, because it's not. I just started the ADN program there in August and there is 60 in my class. I heard there was over 450 applicants, but not sure...
