  2. 1 minute for each question in nursing school

    tara07733 replied to RescueNinja123's topic in General Students

    FYI, your post may be switched to the nursing student forum. I believe our exams turn out to be 2 minutes per question. What I've always done is to start by answering all the question that I know...

  5. Nurses found out what im making, dont know how ?

  7. Waiting on phone interview...?

    tara07733 replied to ladylawless2317's topic in General Nursing

  8. "Bless Your Heart"

    tara07733 replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Im also not saying, though, that people who say have a blessed day are always being sincere. Sometimes I think it's simply out of habit and not particularly to be godly. But it I have to say that I...

  9. "Bless Your Heart"

    tara07733 replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I've never heard/seen "have a blessed day" used in a condescending manner. I am black and I constantly hear it, see it in my FB feed, etc. I'm not saying it doesn't happen but I never get the...

    tara07733 replied to NurseOnAMotorcycle's topic in General Nursing

  12. NPR story on nursing injuries

    tara07733 posted a topic in General Nursing

    This was an interesting piece I listened to on NPR this week. I thought I'd share and see what nurses' opinions are on this. I've seen this subject on here numerous times. Let me know if the link does...

    tara07733 replied to vrios's topic in General Nursing

    tara07733 replied to Healthcare102's topic in General Nursing

    This sounds utterly horrible!! It made me realize that I need to make sure that my 7 year old son keeps his hands washed. I cannot imagine the effect this has on young kids. Now here's a question from...

  18. Males working in the NICU?

    tara07733 replied to cph1993's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    tara07733 replied to Caffeine_IV's topic in General Nursing

    That is awesome. Glad to hear that things were not negative. I agree that they in the future they should not put this sort of info/issue in an email. It creates so much unnecessary

    tara07733 replied to amandaamanda's topic in General Nursing
