Like previous poster we can't bolus from bag. I usually disconnect and do it directly into vein. I have also done it Y site and pinched above and flushed.

Wow that sucks. Honestly at my facility the ED might as well not give report b/c they are horrible and give inaccurate information all the time. For example, I've gotten things in report from pt's BP was 125/64....15 mins later upon the pt entering ...

Well I graduated in May and work on an extremely busy Med Surg unit with 5-6 patients/shift 7am-7pm. I would suggest what's called a brain sheet to organize your day. Everyone has different techniques. I usually use the print out the Charge RN prints...

I love the facility and the other staff on my unit. Everyone is always so willing to help out each other. I have been there a little over 12 weeks.

For me I interviewed on a Monday at 1pm, and was offered a position the next morning around 9am.

I just graduated from PV in May. It really is a great program. It has it's drawbacks like any school, but it obviously prepared me b/c I just passed my NCLEX on the first try last week :)

Not sure if you saw the other post. But how I studied was simply reviewing rationales for both incorrect and correct answers. If I got it incorrect I hand wrote the rationale on a separate piece of paper and would reread it while I took a bubblebath ...

I've never heard of anyone personally that failed after getting the good pop up...it's always "hearsay"! Think positive!! You got this! :)

I honestly didn't have that problem, but then again I studied for NCLEX about 2.5 weeks then took it. However, maybe I can suggest to not use but only one resource for content if you can. At first I started out using Kaplan AND Hurst, but then someth...

I used Kaplan and your scores looked pretty good. Did you review the rationales for qtrainer 7? Those were all passing level NCLEX questions and if you haven't I suggest you review your choices and maybe retake it if you have time :). Other than that...

Congrats!

You PM but it says ur acct doesn't accept private messages so I can't reply

I saw keep at it how you've been studying. Make sure to read rationales for both CORRECT and INCORRECT choices. I know you don't have much time left, but when I took mines in Jan (scored a 1045 first try) I wrote down the incorrect rationales and stu...

I used it as well as only resource and got a 1045 on my exit HESI

I think it depends on how you learn. Kaplan had a deal with our school so it was part of my tuition to take Kaplan in class. Majority of us went the first day (including myself), and never returned. It could be just my personal instructor, but I took...

I like the name change

You look like ur doing really well so far!

Zip did ur license post yet? Mines did this morning...of course right after I paid the 8!bucks lol

I'm sorry to hear that. I just found out I passed the NCLEX yesterday. What works for some people may not work for others. What I used was Kaplan qbank and question trainers. I did over 3000 questions, but what helped me the most was reviewing my rat...

I'm sorry to her that but don't get discouraged...it happens...our nerves get the best of us. I agree with Sun....whatever question resource you use definitely review the rationales for the RIGHT AND WRONG answers...that helps u brush up on some cont...

I agree with bridg.....know dig, lithium. If u feel u need to study pharm then study by class (beta blockers, antidepressants, etc) just to brush up on side effects.

Sounds liked you rocked it Schnook!!! Congrats

Congrats!!!!
