    ok, am I boring?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Destiny12's topic in General Nursing

    Hmmmmm just from her one blip about her husband calling her boring every day I wouldn't say he is un-supportive and lacks respect. Relationships are a mutual thing, if he is wanting to do stuff with...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Destiny12's topic in General Nursing

    Yes you are boring and you will probably soon suffer from Nerd neck just like me!!! (yes my doc actually said it was nerd neck and said majority of med students have it also LOL) But sounds like Hubby...

    Help. Is my outrage justified?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to fairandbalanced's topic in General Students

    I thought of that same post when I read your post and assumed it was connected. That whole "my fish is bigger than your fish" thing. lol I almost posted that in our program you have to get 100%....

    Help. Is my outrage justified?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to fairandbalanced's topic in General Students

    I completely agree. The poster that said 99.99999% or above though I took as sarcasm to the original post of saying 95 or higher. I average B's in my nursing program with a couple of C's. B's are...

    Concerned that my "type B" personality won't cut it!

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in General Nursing

    AMEN!!!!!! I notice so many people stressed out so much by every little thing, on edge and so on, than they just become such negative people. I see nurses that approach it differently bashed and told...

    Developing Robots for the ER: What Do You Think?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to KaringOne's topic in Emergency

    There is the Robotic Gamma Knife as well. (I think that is what it's called, or something close to that) it's really interesting and good how it works. The robotic surgeries I am unsure how I feel. I...

    Huge Dilemma...please help!

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Traum-a-Rama's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    You've gotten a lot of great advice. Personally I would talk to the recruiter and explain that is when your pinning ceremony is and family from out of town has come to watch you graduate. Let her know...

    What is Med/Surge?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    Well with my program first year consists of, Fundamentals, A dosage calc class, pharm, med/surg and Peds and OB and clinicals to accompany all of that. After that you can sit for your boards after...

    What is Med/Surge?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    I think it's would be things not covered. I don't think they cover anything extra that RN's don't. All classes in our 2nd year wouldn't be covered in the LPN classes that our school has. In second...

    What is Med/Surge?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    Do you mean as far as Med/Surg?? In our program after the first year you can be eligible for LPN boards. (they do have to do this short transition class with clinicals in LTC, Hospice and I think...

    What is Med/Surge?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    I think the reason no body wants to work in that area is it's really demanding work. You have all kinds of patients, with all kinds of things going on and it's not consistent if that makes sense. At...

    What is Med/Surge?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    I have found Med/Surg really interesting, for some reason this semester (third for me and our advanced med/surg class and advanced pharm) things have really seem to come together with class and...

    What is Med/Surge?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    You know I am not a text book reader, it is so hard for me and up until this advanced med/surg class I never used the text books. Our book is Medical-Surgical Nursing- Assesment and management of...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to IHeartPeds87's topic in General Nursing

    Being type B doesn't mean you won't get your charting done, it just means it's not your number 1 priority. You will have to learn to find balance, as with everything else. I am a Type B personality...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to sourapril's topic in General Nursing

    Developing Robots for the ER: What Do You Think?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to KaringOne's topic in Emergency

    This just seems creepy to me, I wonder how well it will work out in the actual hospitals. I know I would be a little creeped out having a robot assess me and handling things and than coming in to make...

    What is Med/Surge?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to Despareux's topic in General Students

    Some people seem to hold on to a lot of bitterness if you read a lot of their previous posts on this board, I wouldn't focus on them Fluids and Electrolytes had it's place in my Med/Surg classes but...
