    BroadwayRN replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

  2. Read the thread before you post!!!!!

    BroadwayRN replied to miko014's topic in General Nursing

    And the OP has a right to express their thoughts too, correct? I personally get down right nauseated reading some of the posts so when I see one that I know provokes that nauseated feeling I simply...

    BroadwayRN replied to flightnurse2b's topic in General Nursing

    Don't believe a word they're telling you! Insurance companies will try to keep from paying at any opportunity. It is against the law to consider pregnancy a pre-exsisting condition. I can understand...

  4. Cabbage Soup Diet!

    BroadwayRN replied to Scrubby's topic in Health, Stress Management

    BroadwayRN replied to NYCgrl's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  6. Transportation of the deceased neonate

    BroadwayRN replied to mollyaqua's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I agree that a plastic container is disrespectful. I wouldn't want it for my child. On the other hand I think the fancy decorated basket is too much. It's not a joyous occasion. I think wrapping the...

    BroadwayRN replied to bluemorningglory's topic in General Nursing

  9. Humiliation and embarassment after NCLEX failure

    BroadwayRN replied to FML431's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Try not to worry about the people talking about you behind your back, that only means you're already two steps ahead of them. I know several very good nurses who failed their first NCLEX. I know one...

  10. Did you catch a disease while working as a nurse?

    BroadwayRN replied to bronzemint23's topic in General Nursing

  13. Question about Excelsior BSN enrollment

  16. Nclex 75 questions - no math!!!! Crazy!!!!

    BroadwayRN replied to LIoyd's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    What does having a valid SSN and being a US citizen have to do with passing or failing NCLEX? Don't sell yourself short. 99% of nurses think they failed. I think like 75-80% pass. BTW using all...

  18. 3% NS

    BroadwayRN replied to moonischasingme1's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, 3% NS should always be on a pump. It's way too easy for a patient/family member to fiddle with the dial-a-flow and increase the flow. Some people fiddle with them just out of nervousness not...

  22. My son called me lazy for being sleepy during the daytime!

    BroadwayRN replied to momofdandm's topic in General Nursing

    They may not be meant to hurt but they hurt just the same. A child who is old enough to be selfish is old enough to know better. The attention he may be seeking is more than likely Mom's attention at...

    BroadwayRN replied to H2H_RN's topic in First Year After Licensure
