  1. Pretty sure I'm the only nursing student ever

    Oh my God. Go away. You guys remind me of the obese girl in my class with 3 kids by 2 different baby daddies that smoked like a chimney. Everyone would bad mouth her as soon as she turned her back or...
  2. Guys, it's time to end this thread. You can talk after lunch on the playground. If you don't know what books to bring to class, it's like asking "My patient doesn't have a heart condition. Do I still...
  3. Background Check DENIED

    Why is everyone so sue-happy? You got a speeding ticket, you broke the law. Why "deny" what happened instead of owning up to your mistake? So someone who has a lower GPA but no record SHOULD NOT be...
  4. How to deal with Negative Nancys?!

    Give Nancy a biiigggggg "HELLO" every time you see her! Say things like, "Wow what a great day the Lord gave us. Now turn that frown upside-down!" What's she going to do? Gossip about you being in a...
  5. my first C+ :(

    Hmm, you can start by stop being so self centered, and going down the road of "woe is me." This is nursing school, and you haven't even gotten out into the "real world." In clinicals, you can run to...
  6. What is Med/Surge?

    Med/surg: The "weeding out" class. The class where people's true narrow minded, greedy personalities shine through. If you raise the rate of complaining that you had to endure in Fundamentals to the...
  7. Yes Yes and YES!!! I don't know what's more panic inducing--the clinicals or the classroom nonsense. We're all taught about HIPAA, privacy, professional behavior in the class---and very little of...
  8. You're mostly late for class, rarely hand in assignments, missed several quizzes, and you're telling me you think you'll pull an "A"? You can flirt all you want with the residents at the clionical...
  9. So frustrated and sad..

    Welcome to
  10. Dear Precepting Student:

    So, do you believe a student is SUPPOSED to know how to insert an IV out of nursing school? Because if that's the case, the law is being broken. Only an RN, not a student is allowed to start an IV....
  11. Need help finding job in NJ...

    Dear amazing, The lack of a nursing job market has been in this diarray for AT LEAST 4 years. Non of the "big name" hospitals are hiring unless you have experience. I've seen it over and over and over...
  12. Do you correct your professor?

    You tread a dangerous path. Yes, it's about delivery, but in a roomful of students, NO WAY! It's like telling parents of children "I don't like the way you raise your kids. You should do it this way."...
  13. Dear Precepting Student:

    Dear Preceptor: What's with the "holier than thou" attittude. When you interviewed for this job, didn't you know that you'd have students performing tasks for THE VERY FIRST TIME and might be unsure...
  14. Why are people on this "don't worry the economy will rebound" kick. Hospitals, health care centers are CUTTING DOWN to save money. And if you save money, you MAKE MONEY. That happens whether or not...
  15. To the nurses on the floor at my clinical site

    To the nurses on my clinical floor: You should be the poster children for what is WRONG in nursing: I know the reasons are many, but I'll just keep the list short: 1) The drama. I don't care what...
  16. booted from program 3 weeks before graduation.

    Then your situation should be easy. If there's "no Proof" of the bogus claims placed in your file, just have them removed. But, we're talking allnurses, and nearly all of thime, the "Oh my God, the...
  17. Things you would LOVE to say to your nursing instructors...

    Sorry Mi Vida Loca, wrong thread. When I feel a sneeze coming on, I sneeze into my shoulder, into the fabric. But since 99% of students wear halter tops to class, that wouldn't apply,
  18. Things you would LOVE to say to your nursing instructors...

    Summer is over. Put away the short shorts and the knee socks and flip flops. No matter what time of year, that type of attire is inappropriate anyway. If you're dressing like that to get a guy's...
  19. Dear mjmoon, Why are you opening up a thread so others could have a pi****g contest at your expense? Where does it say only "A" students are accepted into nursing school. I'd rather have a "marginal"...
  20. Put on probation first time administering meds

    A nursing student is usually put on probation if they put a patient in jeopardy, academic dishonesty, etc. Because you didn't know the classification of a drug does not mean someone was harmed. Your...
  21. Things you would LOVE to say to your nursing instructors...

    Roll your eyes. One. More. Time. And Jesus will make them STUCK in that position. When I ask for help, what is with that "Whatchoo want?" look on your face? Duh! I need your help with something!!...
  22. How do I nicely say "no"?

    Just say "I spoke to the director (or something like that) and she said there's no switching of clinical sites." That's how it is in our school. It's your choice to have children, to work the hours...
  23. Your fundamentals class will introduce you to the world of the world of annoying and obnoxious students, nurses that think the sun don't rise 'till they wake up in the morning, and classmates that...
  24. I know you're late/absent on more than a few times throughout the semester, so why, when we're given a surprise quiz and you're not there, you whine to the teacher that the zero you get will bring...
  25. To the cheating students: I hope you jerks get caught, thrown out of the program, and are made an example. You walk around how you love to be around your patients, would do anything for them, but at...
