  1. When you are in NS do you do anything during the summer?

    We don't get the summer off. We do get off when the college is closed though.
  2. HIV + Nurses

    If the nurse is competent then it should not matter if he/she has HIV. I'd be more worried about the patient who is HIV

  8. Cheap varicella titer????

    I have sliding scale at a clinic near the highschool and I only paid about 20 dollars for a full female physical plus my DTap and Tdap titers and other stuff they did to
  9. I had ZERO experience when I started the ADN program as well, so imagine my nerves come first couple of clinicals. I still get a little nervous, but after doing it more and more, you make mistakes,...
  10. the smell of code brown

    A lot of my insructors tell us to breathe through our mouth but I'd rather breathe through my nose and smell it then breathe in the particles and little air floating poopie pieces in my mouth.

  12. Shoes..?

    Birkenstock.
  13. Semester if OVER!!! Shout you joy here!

    w00t! I finished with Medical-Surgical I and had ONE day off and now I am back in IV Therapy class for seven hours!
  14. The "weeding" out

    My uncle agrees with that. He said they throw everything they can at you while you are in nursing school and by the time you are an RN, you forgot half the stuff you learned and you only remember the...

    I was the Assistant Manager for that company a very long time and the scrubs they sell are very low quality and tear very easily at the
  16. Tattoos and nursing

    There is a lady in my program and she has the word Faith tattoo'd on her wrist and it isn't large at it. When our professor is in a bad mood, she wears a band-aid over it. There is also a guy in our...
  17. Midwife question...Help

    Can you go from ADN to MSN? I thought you might need to have your BSN first. I can be wrong, and probably am. I just read about midwifery in the Maternity Text and here is some information: "In the...
  18. i need help n opinions

    Is there anyway you can get your shift switched? Nursing classes really are not flexible (well, at least mine isn't) and you should talk to your employer about it. It is hard to go to school full...

  20. How to remember the different insulins....

    I guess my school is slacking because we didn't have to learn that information. That doesn't mean it isn't going to be on the NCLEX, though.
  21. The most challenging thing... probably waking up at 4 am and driving for about an hour to get to clinicals on time. Yeah, I think that's it. xD Oh yeah, and on top of that, going to the clinical site...
  22. A couple of people in my ADN class here in Florida have that 'scholarship' from FHHD in Sebring and the hospital pays for the entire program but once they are RNs, they have to work for them. I think...

    I found this document here on a thread but I didn't save the thread but I saved the document. I attached the file. It's a document that lets you list the disorder and you can write all the...
  24. Final Exam Question.....

    I was sort of in the same boat. However, I needed a 70 on the final exam in order to make a low, passing B in the class. I made an 81 on the final exam and I calculated my grade to be an 83.1 Good...
