  1. help decoding a prescription...

    The order was incomplete, it does not have a time frame. What if she/he needs the percocet every hour. The doc probaly couldn't even read his own
  2. help decoding a prescription...

    Could the circle with a dot be a Q, the 8L=8h, and the PNN = PRN? So it would say "Q 8h PRN" = "Every 8 hours as needed." Just a suggestion. Remember to clarify,
  3. I got fired!

    Discrimination does not seem to be an issue here. Either you falsely documented patient care or you did not. If you did not then you have a case against the facility. The race of your coworkers is...
  4. Second degree: NET Required?

  5. Any Public Health nurses here?

    Marilynmom, Don't let what you hear about med/surg scare you. Med/surg was one of the best clinical rotations for me except for leadership which was on a med/surg telemetry floor, ER and ICU....

  7. nclex review: to take or not to take

  8. Can't find a job

    Definately follow up with a phone call. I did the very thing at one hospital, comes to find out they had misplaced my app. The recruiter was so happy that I had called that, the day I interviewed, I...

  11. heard something about TCC...

  13. heard something about TCC...

    Hey Marilynmom, You may be in my class. I also attend UCO. Are you a senior? If so have you finished your leadership paper yet? I'm such a slacker, I'm still only 5 pages in. I plan to have it...
  14. heard something about TCC...

    That isn't true at all. If the only difference were prerequisites then a community college could readily confer BSNs, since most prerequisistes are sophomore level classes anyway. You guys have...
  15. Relocating to Tulsa

    I believe that you can atleast make that if not a little more. I'm a new grad graduating in May and my offered salary isn't too far from that more if I include my differentials. Plus I was told I...

  19. Poop Chute Paranoia

    I graduate in about 3 weeks and I never had to give an enema during clinicals. Once in my med/surg clinical I was supposed to. I had it in my hand and walked to the patients room. Wouldn't you know...
  20. Okay people lets get to the point!!!

    I graduate in May. I had two interviews in one day and was hired at both locations. I took the job with the lowest RN: Patient ratio. I will get a $7000 sign on bonus for a two year work...
  21. It shouldn't be hard to find a weekend position at all. I don't know where you are but most places are begging for weekend nurses. Here in Oklahoma, most places are offering premium pay for weekend...
  22. High school transcript needed

    Generally when you have college hours a highschool diploma is not needed. I would verify with the school you are applying to. Good
  23. Singer/Actor/Athlete Pay vs. NP Pay

  24. Help! Advice on kid swallowing a pill...

    When I first started taking pills, I had to put the pill on my tongue and push it to the back of my tongue with my finger. Then I would just take of swig of water and swallow. I hope you find...
  25. Singer/Actor/Athlete Pay vs. NP Pay
