  1. first year nursing students

    CECE,RN replied to keri5368's topic in General Nursing

    Well with me, I chose the ADN route also. I graduate next December with my BSN. So you can do your ADN and get your BSN while you're making cash. Just depends on your needs. What do you want to do in...

  3. NCLEX help

    CECE,RN replied to chikkie02's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Well I also studied with ATI and I can't say that it didn't help me with taking the exam, but most of my help came from "Prntice Hall Nursing Nclex RN Test Prep CD-Rom" (Comprehensive Review for...

  4. Our Legs and Feet

    CECE,RN replied to phosophorus's topic in General Nursing

    When I was pregnant on the floor, no shoe worked for me for long....tried the dansko and that was the closest to comfort I'd got. Also support hose was a life saver...could tell when I wore them and...

  5. Bragging Rights?

    CECE,RN replied to NewNurse16's topic in General Nursing

    Since this is your first time "bragging", you are forgiven. Take note to the reactions others had on your comment and learn from it, that's all you can do....still says alot that you are continously...

  6. Is taking a drug test embarrassing?

    CECE,RN replied to Lala27poodles's topic in General Nursing

    No, not embarrasing unless you show up for work the next day and your urine test was positive..lol. No really it's just a sample of the urine you've been peeing out your whole life, but into a...

  7. What's the strangest thing you've seen?

    CECE,RN replied to PopeJane3rd's topic in General Nursing

    OK, how about the funniest thing I've ever seen since this is in a similar thread. I've seen a 80 year old resident of a LTC facility that had ED get weekly "oral favors" from his very young wife....

  8. Online classes

    CECE,RN replied to heaverboo's topic in General Nursing

    CECE,RN replied to tankgrrl13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations and good luck to all. Anything is possible with hard work and determination....and maybe a strawberry daiquiri on the side. lol... No really a study group will help you through. It did...

  10. So I got my rejection letter today...

    CECE,RN replied to carla1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't put all your peas into one pod. Keep your options open and next time apply to more than one school because nothing is garanteed, especially in this economy. I applied to several nursing schools...

  11. Online classes

    CECE,RN replied to heaverboo's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the other posts. Online classes are great. I took History 121 online and it was much easier than when i took History 111 in class. It's an automatic A if you put in the work. You get to...

  12. Attachment to patients?

    CECE,RN replied to thatchsmom's topic in General Nursing

    I don't agree that one eventually becomes numb, I have been in this field, first as a CNA, for many years and I am still caring and compassionate. I do think that eventually you will learn to not let...

  13. Question for RNs please

    CECE,RN replied to hollyandsky's topic in General Nursing

    If you are able to, go for the RN, especially if that's what you want to ultimately be. My school taught us well and the LPNs that joined later to finish their RN missed out on alot of the material...

  14. To aspirate or not to aspirate?!

    CECE,RN replied to RNStephNicole's topic in General Nursing

    I am a new graduate also and we were taught to aspirate with IM injections, just as you were. I feel like we should always aspirate although the odds of you ending up smack dab in the middle of a vein...

    CECE,RN replied to MotivatedOne's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    No, I am looking. I couldn't work at first because I was pregnant during nursing school and wanted to wait a while before I went to work. Now, I wish I wouldv'e secured a position during the mean...

  17. Having a hard time to concentrating to study for NCLEX... Any suggestions?

    CECE,RN replied to afield's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Just keep at it, eventually you'll retain the information, but 9 hours a day? I don't think you'll have a problem with NCLEX. lol Your'e probably just second guessing yourself, like I did before I...

  18. GTCC Fall 2009

    CECE,RN replied to MotivatedOne's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    They already had us placed in our clinical rotations, we didn't get to pick. If we had a problem with the hours, then we could switch with other classmates who wanted one of the other clinical hours....

  19. GTCC Fall 2009

    CECE,RN replied to MotivatedOne's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    We usually didn't know our full schedules (clinical hours) until classes actually

    CECE,RN replied to MotivatedOne's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  21. i failed out of nursing school...now what

    CECE,RN replied to mashamontago's topic in General Nursing

    I failed out of nursing school when I was your age also, but I have now graduated from nursing school and passed the NCLEX. Don't be discouraged, if this profession is meant for you, it will be. You...

  22. My 3rd time. No results yet!

    CECE,RN replied to luvahmi's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Do the "pearson trick" and you'll know, that's what I did. Try to re-register for Pearson, if they let you pay bad news, but if they tell you there is an existing account in your name, get ready to...

  23. Terrified of NCLEX!

    CECE,RN replied to Lunaticus's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    NCLEX is different for everyone, so it's kinda hard to give specific advice on it. That's the reason everyone might be giving the general saying " if you did well on....". I can tell you to know your...
