  3. Do I ask people to be references for me?

    Yes, please ask. I once had an acquaintance give my name as a reference without asking me first. I wasn't at all prepared when the recruiter called me and I probably didn't help her
  4. literature submission

    Just going through this myself so maybe I can help! First, pick out the journal to which you would like to submit your morificecript. Look at previous articles that have been published to make sure...
  5. Dyeing Med Couture Scrubs?

    Kathy is right. I do have experience with drawstrings, thanks to my kittehs! BTW, Boog's RN is right, too. Some black clothes have a tinge of brown, some have a bit of grey, and it can be difficult to...

  7. Dyeing Med Couture Scrubs?

    I think you'd be better off to just replace the drawstring (unless your school says the drawstring is okay). You could remove the logo with a seam ripper. You can get a doohickey to replace the...

  14. I just failed nursing school

    Jrsygirl, this is only the first course you've failed in the program, right? Most programs allow for two course failures before you're out. If that's the case, please don't give up! It sounds to me...
  15. Which Pathophysioloy book would you want

    That's by McCance and Huether, right? That would be my choice, too. MagsMom, what an awesome opportunity!
  16. Should I admit defeat or keep going?

    I take it she didn't give you any specifics on deficiencies she might see in your clinical performance? Just saying that she doesn't think you "should" pass doesn't give you any direction or idea how...
  17. Dining room vent.

    This is a residents' rights issue. Alert and oriented residents should have the right to decide if they want TV on when they're eating, what TV shows they want to watch, and whether or not they want...

  20. Horrible Clinical Instructor!

    Sometimes there are bad instructors. Make sure you give honest but constructive feedback in your evaluation of her teaching skills. Don't just say, "horrible teacher". Say that she seemed impatient...
  21. Confused! Environmental Hazards Project

    I agree. The assignment is vague and you're at a disadvantage not having a rubric or an example of what the instructor expects. You've done a good job here. Check your spelling (e.g., tendinitis)...
  22. Do you ever....

    I used that line on my husband when we were dating. I'm the only nurse he ever dated and he was completely gobsmacked when I said it. I think if it had been any earlier in the relationship it might...

  24. Can Spinal Taps cause bumps or tumors?

    This is going to happen to you many times in your career. Due to concerns about legal liability, many nurses (and students) choose not to answer questions like these. A wrong answer could open you up...
