    WWYD - need a voice of reason

    netglow replied to MJB2010's topic in General Students

    It's hard. The more you try to weigh your options, the more confused you get. One thing about nursing is you just will never know what the job is about until you actually begin working it. So what...

    nursing schools without accreditation

    netglow replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in General Nursing

    I just don't understand -- then why test? If you want to allow repeats then have there be actual scores for each attempt available for employers and states licensing boards to view on record....

    Anyone find CRNA School EASIER than made out to be?

    netglow replied to SlyFoxRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    IDK, you gotta ask them to get info first hand. Some will say yes, and some will say no. But, seriously, an advanced practice degree in nursing is worth nothing if you don't have several years of...

    Anyone find CRNA School EASIER than made out to be?

    netglow replied to SlyFoxRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yes, my RN was the same experience. Was told pointedly to second degree students, that we needed to get used to getting B grades, or even fear not passing (LOL) of course, some did not pass. But I...

    Verifying medications

    netglow replied to loveishope's topic in General Nursing

    I guess that's the problem, you have to figure out what that means in your EMR. I think, though it's more like Night Owl RN states. Verify means you've seen it, know it's there. Like new orders....

    Don't be timid when you talk to your NM, or she'll accuse you of being timid. The parts about you not being liked as a member of the team -- those are serious errors of hers. She'll regret having said...

    how does one become an OR nurse
